Circus launches its €5,000 crypto tournament

Circus now offers cryptocurrency deposits and withdrawals on its Belgian online casino site. This new feature is accompanied by a €5,000 crypto tournament, running from 1 to 30 June 2026.  

A new milestone for payments at Circus  

The promotion highlights a significant development for Circus players: the introduction of cryptocurrency transactions. This option is fast, simple, secure and transparent.   

However, deposited amounts do not remain in cryptocurrency in the player’s account: they are converted into euros at the exchange rate in force at the time of the transaction, then credited in euros to the Circus account.  

The available cryptocurrencies are Bitcoin, Ethereum, USDC, Solana and Tron. Transactions are generally confirmed within a few minutes, although the exact time depends on the cryptocurrency used and the traffic on the relevant network.  

A tournament reserved for players who have deposited using cryptocurrency  

The Crypto Tournament, an exclusive competition with a prize pool of €5,000, accompanies this new payment method. The tournament rewards 100 winners and requires a Crypto ticket to take part. 

To receive this ticket, players had to have made at least one valid and confirmed cryptocurrency deposit between 1 March 2026 and 31 May 2026. Eligible players were due to receive their ticket in their account on 1 June 2026, along with a notification informing them of its availability.  

How does the tournament work?  

The Crypto Tournament runs from 1 June 2026 at 12.30 pm to 30 June 2026 at 11.59 pm. The aim is to accumulate as many points as possible during the competition to climb the leaderboard.  

The tournament features a total prize pool of €5,000, an entry fee of one ticket, a credit of 200 and a game duration of 15 minutes.   

Depositing in crypto: the steps to follow  

Deposits in cryptocurrency are made via the deposit section of your Circus account. Players first select the ‘crypto’ option as their payment method, then choose their preferred cryptocurrency from those on offer.  

A unique wallet address is then generated for the transaction, along with a code to scan. Players must then send the cryptocurrency from their own wallet, specifying the amount and confirming the transaction.  

Once the transaction has been confirmed on the network, the amount is converted into euros and credited to the Circus account. Circus states that deposits are usually confirmed within a few minutes, subject to the network used and its traffic levels. 

Cryptocurrency deposits cannot be cancelled. This rule means you must take particular care when sending funds. The wallet address, the selected network and the cryptocurrency used must be checked before confirmation. An error in the address or network may result in the permanent loss of funds.  

Circus also states that network fees may apply and are payable by the player. Transaction fees, however, are covered by Circus. The conversion rate to euros is applied at the time of processing.  

Crypto withdrawals  

A player who has deposited in crypto must withdraw in crypto. Circus presents this rule as a consequence of the applicable anti-money laundering obligations.  

Once a withdrawal request has been made, processing may take from a few minutes up to a maximum of one working day. The player then receives a confirmation email, after which the funds are sent to their crypto wallet. The time taken to receive the funds depends on the cryptocurrency used and the traffic on the blockchain network.  

A promotion combining innovation and vigilance  

With this initiative, Circus combines two key elements: the integration of cryptocurrency payments and a promotional tournament with a prize pool of €5,000. The promise is clear: to enable eligible players to use a digital payment method whilst taking part in a competition reserved for crypto deposits.
