About Stake.com

Stake.com is a crypto-native online casino and sportsbook launched in August 2017 by Ed Craven and Bijan Tehrani. The platform's commercial operations are run from Melbourne, Australia, while the licensed operating entity, Medium Rare NV, is registered in Curaçao. The wider group parent is Easygo Entertainment Pty Ltd, an Australian company controlled by the two co-founders.

By publicly reported wager volume, Stake is one of the largest online crypto casinos in operation. The platform has produced an in-house catalogue of provably-fair "Originals" — including Crash, Dice, Plinko, Mines, and Limbo — alongside its third-party game catalogue and sportsbook.

What we cover

Within Clash Watchdog AI's published methodology v1.0.0, our coverage of Stake is currently scoped to multiplier-based provably-fair games in the crash family. The following Stake titles are in active scope:

• Stake Crash — Tier 1 audit in preparation.

Additional Stake titles in the crash family will be added to the directory as Phase 1 capacity allows. Non-crash-family titles are out of scope for v1 of the methodology.

Why our coverage is what it is

Stake's provably-fair surface is well-documented and amenable to full hash-chain verification under our methodology §4.2. The operator publishes per-round commitment hashes and revealed server seeds, which makes the Column C (cryptographic) check fully reproducible from public data plus our own Source 3 proxy observations.

The same is not automatically true for every Stake title — for example, Stake's licensed third-party slot inventory is not provably-fair in this sense and would require a different audit surface that the v1 methodology does not yet cover.

Public references and caveats

• Stake's commit-and-reveal scheme is documented in the in-game "Fairness" tab on every completed round.
• Group-level corporate facts (founders, year, jurisdictions) are taken from publicly reported sources and Wikipedia entries on the founders.
• Any Stake licensing changes that we observe in public records will be reflected on this page in subsequent reviews; the last review date is shown above.

Audit posture

Stake is the first benchmark target of our Phase 1 audit programme. No conclusion will be published before the minimum sample sizes in our methodology §2.3 are met. If you observe something unusual on a Stake game we cover, tell us.
