Responsible Gaming
Gambling Should Be Entertainment, Not Income
At clandessdiner.org, we are committed to promoting responsible gambling practices. Cryptocurrency gambling, like all forms of gambling, should be viewed as a form of entertainment with money you can afford to lose—never as a way to earn money or solve financial problems.
The house always has a mathematical advantage. No strategy guarantees winnings. If you find yourself gambling to recover losses or relying on gambling for income, please seek help immediately.
Age Verification
In Canada, you must be at least 18 years of age (or the legal gambling age in your province) to participate in gambling activities. Some provinces may have higher age requirements.
By using this website, you confirm that you are of legal gambling age in your jurisdiction and have the legal capacity to enter into gambling agreements.
Warning Signs of Problem Gambling
If you experience any of the following, you may be developing a gambling problem:
- Chasing losses by gambling more to recover money you've lost
- Gambling with money needed for essentials (rent, food, utilities, medications)
- Hiding your gambling activity from family, friends, or partners
- Feeling anxious, irritable, or restless when unable to gamble
- Neglecting work, school, family, or personal relationships due to gambling
- Lying about the amount of time or money spent gambling
- Increasing the amount wagered to achieve the same excitement
- Borrowing money to fund gambling activities
- Experiencing mood swings or depression related to gambling outcomes
- Unsuccessfully attempting to cut back or stop gambling
If you recognize yourself in these signs, help is available.
Self-Help Tools & Player Protections
Most responsible gambling platforms offer tools to help you maintain control:

- Reality Checks: Receive periodic notifications about time and money spent
