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.

  1. 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.
  2. 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.
  3. 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.
