I had two options to do that in 2011; one by funneling money through Cyprus to an Israeli bank, and the other via a phony real estate company in Costa Rica. I didn't take either of them because the potential for having payouts or deposits suspended in transit by a card company, if they found the violation for miscoding gaming transactions, would've decimated any chance I had for fully legitimate operations; and also any banking freeze probably would've destroyed my standing and credibility with customers. Since it was important to me to not run a criminal enterprise and since transparency was one of the few things I could offer to set my company apart from other casinos, I declined, and instead spent a huge amount of time and energy blocking any attempt by people in the US to gamble on my site. So, no props are due whatsoever to the people who took that route. If you got away with it all these years, then abi gezunt. Most of the people I knew who did those things in the early Bitcoin years are now in prison.
