Bitcoin is splitting similar to how a stock would split. If you don't know what a stock split is, look it up. 

Anyway, most Bitcoin processors and Sports Books are not doing Bitcoin transactions on July 31st and August 1st as a result. They are just protecting themselves.

FYI - Received a cease and desist email from Coinbase from deposits and withdrawals with 5dimes. They threatened to suspend my account if I made any other transactions. 

So much for BTC being untraceable and the easiest way to do garbage.

Sorry pal, but if you haven't read here 1000 times by now that you should never send from CB to any sportsbook or from SB to CB directly - then you have nobody to blame but yourself.

Not blaming anyone pal. Just offering a heads up to others and no I haven't read that here 1000 times, this forum is dead.

You're suppose to use Blockchain as an intermediary between Coinbase and the sports book. It has been discussed here thousand of times. 

You have no one to blame but yourself.
