Are Bitcoin casinos worth it? Or can you have just as much fun and Sports Betting win potentially more money by collecting NFTs or betting on eSports with your Bitcoin? In this article, we’ll take a look at some of the biggest prizes you can win betting on eSports, some of the most expensive NFTs, and compare them to your potential payouts at Bitcoin casinos.

Most expensive NFTs

NFTs are non-fungible tokens.

Decrypt gives us a good fundamental definition: "Non-fungible tokens contain identifying information recorded in their smart contracts. It’s this information that makes each NFT different and as such, they cannot be directly replaced by another token. They cannot be swapped like for like, as no two are alike. Banknotes, in contrast, can be simply exchanged one for another, if they are the same value, there is no difference to the holder." They use the contrast of banknotes, but a better one would be Ethereum.

Each Ether and its parts are all interchangeable. But the NFT tokens built on Ethereum -- such as ERC-721 tokens -- are not interchangeable. NFTs can also be built on other blockchains but the vast majority are built, deployed, collected, bought, and sold on Ethereum. So, if you frequent one of the bitcoin casino sites (which also accept Ethereum) at the link at the top of the article, then you’ll have the basic knowledge to buy, sell, and collect NFTs.

If you’re new to Bitcoin casinos then you’ll also be quite new to NFTs. The strong recommendation is to learn about buying, selling, and storing Ethereum first -- and perhaps trying it out at your favorite cryptocasinos -- before diving into NFTs. So, if you were to bet on NFTs by buying some and holding on, what are some extreme prices that some NFTs have been sold for?

Top SOLD non-fungible tokens:

Here’s a list of the current top sold NFTs in 2020 and 2021.

$747,400 – Alien #2890 (CryptoPunk) $223,000 – Formula 1 Grand Prix de Monaco 2020 1A (F1 Delta Time) $170,000 – ‘Dragon’ (CryptoKitties) $130,000 – ‘Angel’ (Axie Infinity) $111,000 – ‘1-1-1’ F1 car (F1 Delta Time) The list also includes NFTs based on sports -- if you happen to be a fan of sports betting you might find this particularly interesting. "$100,000 – Zion Williamson ‘Holo MMXX’ #1 – (NBA Top Shot) $100,000 – LeBron James ‘From the Top’ #1 – (NBA Top Shot)" As you can see, if you were to have purchased those NFTs, you could have then resold them for over six figures.

How does that compare to Bitcoin betting? Well, the prizes at Bitcoin casinos -- like the ones mentioned on the list linked at the top -- can also reach into the six figures. The difference is that when you’re gambling at a Bitcoin casino, you know which games to play and even the odds of winning a top prize. However, with NFTs, you never know the odds. After all, NFTs like those above are subject to people’s desires and whims as to how much they’re willing to pay.
