Duelbits says a hack on September 24 may have cost the crypto casino up to $7 million; the operator has taken the site offline
Duelbits was hit by a cyberattack on September 24, and the company says the loss could be as high as $7 million. The operator has taken its website offline while the investigation is ongoing, which is the part that matters for anyone watching crypto gambling payment flows: when a gaming merchant goes dark, settlement, player balances, and processor exposure tend to get messy fast.
- The incident reportedly took place on September 24, with Duelbits describing losses of up to $7 million. That is a material hit for a crypto casino, especially because these businesses often depend on uninterrupted deposits and withdrawals to keep the floor under operations.
- The operator has отключён its website during the investigation. In practical terms, that means the merchant is not just dealing with a security issue; it is also pausing the payment and gaming operation itself until the scope of the breach is clearer.
- For PSPs and acquirers, the useful signal here is not the headline number alone but the operational response: site shutdown suggests the company is treating the incident as a live infrastructure problem, not a cosmetic defacement or routine account compromise.
