Duelbits supports 13 cryptocurrencies. The right one for you depends on four factors: how fast you need your deposit to land, how much you're willing to pay in network fees, whether you want price stability or market exposure, and which coins you already hold.
This guide compares every supported cryptocurrency across those four dimensions, answers the Bitcoin vs Ethereum question specifically for casino use, and gives a clear recommendation for each type of player.
| Coin / Network | Settlement | Fee | Price Stability | Best for |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| USDT TRC-20 | Seconds | Near-zero | Stable ($1) | Overall best, beginners and regulars |
| Solana (SOL) | Seconds | Near-zero | Volatile | Speed + crypto exposure |
| XRP | 3-5 sec | Near-zero | Volatile | Speed, low fees |
| Tron (TRX) | Seconds | Near-zero | Volatile | Speed, ultra-low fees |
| USDT ERC-20 | 1-5 min | ~$0.10-$0.25 | Stable ($1) | Stability when ETH network only |
| Ethereum (ETH) | 1-5 min | ~$0.10-$0.25 | Volatile | ETH holders, faster than BTC |
| BNB Chain | 1-3 min | Low | Volatile | BNB holders |
| Litecoin (LTC) | 2-5 min | Near-zero | Volatile | BTC alternative, faster |
| Dogecoin (DOGE) | 3-8 min | Low | Volatile | DOGE holders |
| Bitcoin Cash (BCH) | 5-15 min | Low | Volatile | BTC alternative |
| USDC | Varies by network | Varies | Stable ($1) | Stablecoin alternative to USDT |
| Bitcoin (BTC) | 10-60 min | Variable | Volatile | Large pre-planned deposits |
This is the most important decision, and it's personal.
For most gambling sessions, stable value is the more practical choice. For players who hold BTC or ETH as long-term assets and want to use them directly without converting, volatility is simply the cost of convenience.
The most critical question on match day, session day, or any time you're depositing same-day.
| Situation | Best coin |
|---|---|
| Need funds in under 1 minute | USDT TRC-20, SOL, XRP, TRX |
| Depositing for a game that starts in 30 minutes | USDT TRC-20, SOL |
| Depositing same day, 2+ hours before kickoff | LTC, ETH, BNB |
| Pre-planned deposit, day before | Any coin including BTC |
| Depositing for live in-play betting (mid-game) | USDT TRC-20 or SOL only |
Settlement: Seconds, among the fastest on any blockchain
Fee: Fractions of a cent
Price: Always $1 (USD peg)
Network: Tron (TRC-20)
Wallet: Trust Wallet (native support)
USDT TRC-20 wins on every practical gambling metric simultaneously: it's the fastest, the cheapest, and the only coin with no price volatility. It is the newest addition to Duelbits' supported coins and the single most recommended option for the majority of players.
The $1 peg advantage in practice: When you win 50 USDT at the blackjack table, you know exactly what that's worth. When you withdraw 250 USDT after a profitable session, 250 USDT is $250 in your wallet. No mental arithmetic required, no exposure to overnight market movements.
The network technicality: Always send USDT on TRC-20, not ERC-20, to a TRC-20 address. TRC-20 wallet addresses start with T. If your wallet shows an address starting with 0x, you're on the wrong network. See the full deposit walkthrough in our How to Deposit Crypto on Duelbits guide.
Best for: Beginners, regular players, anyone who wants the simplest possible experience, live betting top-ups, stablecoin holders.
Settlement: Seconds (one of the fastest blockchains in existence)
Fee: Fractions of a cent
Price: Volatile, market-priced
Wallet: Phantom (native), Trust Wallet
Solana matches USDT TRC-20 on settlement speed and fees. The only difference is price volatility, SOL's value moves with the crypto market. For players who hold SOL and don't want to convert to USDT, it is the fastest and cheapest non-stablecoin option on Duelbits.
Solana also powers Duelbits' unique TAP TRADING original game, the only game in the casino that uses the live SOL price as part of its gameplay mechanic. SOL deposits unlock the TAP TRADING experience natively.
Best for: SOL holders, players who want crypto price exposure, anyone familiar with the Phantom wallet ecosystem.
Settlement: 3-5 seconds
Fee: Near-zero
Price: Volatile
Wallet: Trust Wallet, Xaman (Xumm)
Note: Some wallets require a destination tag
XRP's Ledger is among the most consistent settlement networks in crypto. At 3-5 seconds it's marginally slower than Solana but effectively instant for any practical purpose.
The destination tag rule: When depositing XRP to Duelbits, you receive both a wallet address and a destination tag. Both are required, sending XRP without the destination tag may result in the funds not being credited. See our deposit guide for the full XRP walkthrough.
Best for: XRP holders, players who want near-instant settlement without converting to a stablecoin.
Settlement: Seconds
Fee: Near-zero
Price: Volatile
Wallet: Trust Wallet
TRX is the native coin of the Tron blockchain, the same network that powers USDT TRC-20. TRX deposits settle in seconds, fees are negligible. For players who hold TRX directly, this is the fastest deposit route.
Practical note: If you're sending USDT on TRC-20 from Trust Wallet, you also need a small TRX balance in your Trust Wallet to pay the network fee on the transaction. Hold $1-2 worth of TRX alongside your USDT TRC-20 holdings.
Best for: TRX holders, players who already use the Tron ecosystem for USDT.
This is the most commonly asked comparison, and for casino gambling specifically, Ethereum wins on every practical metric.
| Factor | Bitcoin (BTC) | Ethereum (ETH) |
|---|---|---|
| Settlement time | 10-60 minutes | 1-5 minutes |
| Network fee | Variable (can be high in congestion) | ~$0.10-$0.25 |
| Price stability | Highly volatile | Highly volatile |
| Widely held | Most widely held crypto | Second most widely held |
| Casino use case | Large pre-planned deposits | Session-sized deposits same day |
When Bitcoin makes sense for Duelbits: If you're depositing a significant amount planned the day before (not same-day), Bitcoin is perfectly viable. Send it 90+ minutes before you need it and confirmation arrives comfortably. Bitcoin is also valid for players who hold BTC as their primary crypto asset and don't want to convert, the larger your deposit, the less the transaction fee matters proportionally.
When Ethereum makes sense: ETH's 1-5 minute settlement makes it practical for same-day deposits. The consistent $0.10-$0.25 gas fee (in 2026's Layer 2-influenced fee environment) makes it affordable for most deposit sizes. ETH holders can deposit directly without converting.
Neither wins against USDT TRC-20 or Solana for gambling specifically, stablecoins and fast chains are objectively better suited to the casino deposit-and-withdraw use case.
Settlement: 2-5 minutes (approximately 10x faster than Bitcoin)
Fee: Near-zero
Price: Volatile
Wallet: Trust Wallet, Exodus, Litecoin Core
Litecoin was created specifically as a faster, cheaper version of Bitcoin. For the gambling use case, LTC resolves Bitcoin's primary weakness, settlement speed, while maintaining very low fees. If you want the Bitcoin-style asset but with usable casino deposit timing, LTC is the practical choice.
Best for: Bitcoin-minded players who want faster confirmation without switching to a completely different ecosystem.
Settlement: 3-8 minutes
Fee: Low
Price: Volatile (and historically very volatile in short periods)
Wallet: Trust Wallet, Exodus
DOGE's widespread availability on exchanges and low transaction fees make it accessible for players building a first crypto position. Its settlement is faster than Bitcoin and fees are consistently low.
Caveat: DOGE is historically among the most volatile major cryptocurrencies during rapid market moves. Using DOGE for casino deposits during periods of extreme market volatility can result in significant deposit value changes between the time you send and the time you play.
Best for: DOGE holders, players introduced to crypto via DOGE.
Settlement: 1-3 minutes
Fee: Low
Price: Volatile
Wallet: Trust Wallet, MetaMask
BNB is Binance's native blockchain and coin. It's the default coin for players who came to crypto through Binance, it sits in their exchange account and transfers to Duelbits with low fees and reasonable speed.
Practical note: Always withdraw BNB from Binance on the BNB Chain (BEP-20) network when sending to Duelbits. Verify the network selection in Binance matches the Duelbits deposit network before confirming.
Best for: Binance users who hold BNB natively.
Settlement: 5-15 minutes
Fee: Low
Price: Volatile
Bitcoin Cash was created as a fork of Bitcoin with larger block sizes and faster transaction times. It settles faster than Bitcoin but slower than LTC, ETH, or any of the instant-settlement options. Primarily useful for BCH holders who want to use their existing holdings directly.
Best for: BCH holders, players seeking a Bitcoin-like asset with moderate speed improvement.
Settlement: Varies by network
Fee: Varies by network
Price: Stable ($1 USD peg)
USDC is the second major USD-pegged stablecoin. Like USDT, it maintains a $1 peg and is available on multiple networks. If you have USDC from Circle's ecosystem or hold it from a DeFi platform, Duelbits accepts it directly.
USDC vs USDT for Duelbits: USDT TRC-20 is generally faster and cheaper than most USDC network options. If you specifically hold USDC and don't want to convert, deposit directly. If you're acquiring stablecoin specifically for Duelbits, USDT TRC-20 is the cleaner choice.
Best for: USDC holders from DeFi platforms or Circle-ecosystem users.
| Player Type | Best Coin | Why |
|---|---|---|
| Complete beginner | USDT TRC-20 | Stable, instant, near-free, no complexity |
| Regular player | USDT TRC-20 or SOL | Speed + convenience for frequent sessions |
| Bitcoin holder | LTC for speed, BTC for large deposits | Avoid BTC for same-day session deposits |
| Ethereum holder | ETH directly | 1-5 min settlement is acceptable |
| Live bettor | USDT TRC-20 or SOL | Must arrive in seconds, only these two qualify |
| Price exposure seeker | SOL or ETH | Fast settlement + retained market upside |
| DOGE/meme coin holder | DOGE | Use what you have, be aware of volatility |
Duelbits does not permit coin mixing, you must withdraw in the same cryptocurrency you deposited.
| Deposited | Must withdraw in |
|---|---|
| Bitcoin | Bitcoin |
| USDT TRC-20 | USDT TRC-20 |
| Solana | Solana |
| Ethereum | Ethereum |
| Any other coin | Same coin |
Plan your withdrawal currency before depositing. If you want to cash out in USDT TRC-20 for instant stablecoin settlement, you must deposit in USDT TRC-20. If you deposit Bitcoin but want USDT on withdrawal, you must first withdraw in Bitcoin and then convert in your personal wallet or on an exchange.
This also means the speed of your withdrawal is determined by which coin you deposited, another reason USDT TRC-20 and Solana are optimal choices for players who value fast cashouts.
