Portrait of Samuel Gramstad

Samuel Gramstad

Founder

Samuel founded successful crypto sites in 2020, when Bitcoin was still trading around $5,000, drawing on a computer science and UX background to address a gap in the market. That same instinct shapes CryptoBetting: rankings built on how a sportsbook actually performs for the bettor, not on marketing spend.

About Author

CryptoBetting exists because I got tired of seeing sportsbook rankings built around ad spend instead of odds, payout speed, or anything a bettor would care about. Fixing that took a mix of two things I’d been doing long before this industry existed: a computer science degree, and a habit of obsessing over why people click on some things and bounce off others, going back to running a YouTube channel back when almost nobody treated the platform seriously.

Those two threads, UX and user behavior, eventually turned into a career in UI/UX design and SEO. Sports betting content, when I finally looked closely at it, had the exact same blind spot casino content did: too much noise from marketing, not enough signal from actual bettor data. CryptoBetting is my attempt to fix that with real usage data instead of guesswork.

Top Tip for Readers

Watch how a sportsbook treats you after you've signed up, not just what it promises before. If withdrawals stall, if support goes quiet, or if the app suddenly gets clunky the moment real money's involved, that tells you more than any ranking list will.
