More prosection of e-wallets?
Is this like Neteller? This concerns e-gold, which is another type of e-wallet.

Not siginifcant, a completely different order of magnitude
To my knowledge, e-gold did not handle a significant amount of gaming business.
They kept their e-gold and assets in the US ??? |

[/ QUOTE ] With the current US Justice Dept. under the control of the right wing religious Republican bible thumping nuts ANYTHING is possible. They could very easily take out epassporte any day now. The only hope we have is that the time will pass by before they do this and the Republicans will lose control of the White House like they did the congress in the last election. If the Republicans keep control of the White House in the next election they will have enough time to totally wipe out online gaming and internet freedom as well. Remember, Republicans have also said they want to block ADULTS from accessing sites like Playboy.com and other even 'mainstream' adult sites. It will be a very very scary world if the Republicans keep control of the white hous in next years election. |

e-gold is accused of knowingly being the Neteller of the child pornography industry. Supposedly they would surreptitiously help customers create new accounts after their old ones got exposed. I'm not saying that any of this is true, but if the accusations are correct then I completely support what the Government is doing.
AFAIK they are not in the online gaming transaction business. |

e-gold also is widely used in the autosurf and hyip (aka ponzi schemes) industry. After the 12dailypro and the stormpay debacle, these ponzis have relied on e-gold for funding.

Re: More prosection of e-wallets?
Epassporte only serves online poker sites. It does not serve online casinos or sports betting sites. This policy makes it a much harder target than Neteller.
If the DOJ indicts Epassporte and loses, then online poker would gain the exemption that we seek by legislation. I don't think that DOJ will take this gamble. I agree that online gaming in US and WTO will benefit from a new administration. However, I doubt that Guiliani, McCain or Romney would continue this campaign against online gaming or so blatanly disregard the WTO. |
