More than $2.3 million was drained from Gamdom’s hot wallets, and the casino went offline after the funds moved to new addresses

Gamdom has gone offline after more than $2.3 million was taken from its hot wallets and moved on to new addresses. For PSPs and acquirers serving iGaming, the detail that matters is simple: this is a live treasury event, not just a headline.

  1. More than $2.3 million was stolen from Gamdom’s hot wallets. The funds were then sent to new addresses, which is the kind of on-chain movement payment teams watch closely when they are trying to trace where the money went and whether any of it can still be intercepted or flagged.
  2. After the transfer, Gamdom went offline. The company has not explained what happened, so there is no public account yet of whether this was a wallet compromise, an internal control failure, or something else entirely.
  3. For high-risk payment providers, the operational takeaway is that hot-wallet exposure remains a direct balance-sheet risk for casino operators. If the treasury setup is too exposed, the payment stack does not just process risk — it inherits it.
