Ethereum withdrawals: fast rail, slower desks
Five hours is the median, which is ten times slower than Bitcoin on this same set of sites. The network is not the reason. Ethereum settles in seconds.
Every site that takes Ethereum
Some of the buttons below pay this site when an account is opened. The order is the median, measured the same way for every row, and money does not move it.
| Casino | Median | Minimum | Ontario | |
|---|---|---|---|---|
 BitStarz | 10 min | C$20 | offshore | CASH OUT |
 SlotWolf | 20 min | C$10 | offshore | CASH OUT |
 JustCasino | 30 min | — | offshore | CASH OUT |
 Lucky Hills Casino | 5 h | — | offshore | CASH OUT |
 Casino Days | 12 h | C$10 | registered | CASH OUT |
 WinSpirit Casino | 12 h | — | offshore | CASH OUT |
The spread is the story
Quickest recorded: ten minutes. Slowest: twelve hours. Six sites, one rail, a seventy fold spread. Every minute of that difference is queue time inside the casino, because settlement on the chain is finished before the approval email is read.
So an Ethereum median tells you about the desk, not the technology. Read it as a proxy for how automated the withdrawal process is and you will not be surprised.
Gas, and who pays it
Most sites here absorb the gas cost rather than deduct it, which is worth more than it sounds during congestion. When the network is busy a transfer can cost several dollars, and a site that eats that is quietly giving you back the difference on every cashout.
Minimum out is C$20. Minimum in is C$10, so this is not a rail for a small first deposit.
Against the alternatives
Bitcoin is faster here by a wide margin and is offered at nearly twice as many sites. USDT matches Ethereum on speed and removes the price risk between cashing out and spending. Ethereum makes sense if it is what you already hold.
It does not make sense as a rail you adopt specifically for withdrawals.
