    Nobody really knows, perhaps their sportsbook players kept complaining until they brought it back.

    Personally I think playing at traditional U.S. facing poker rooms that accept cryptocurrencies is far better than playing at a site like SwC Poker who only have a few dozen players online at any given time. Sure, you'll save a couple of percent on the rake but there is no traffic, no proper tournaments and the software doesn't compare to what's on offer at Bovada Poker or BetOnline Poker.

    No they don't offer rakeback but they do have a bitcoin deposit bonus aimed specifically at their crypto players.

    Once thing that was seriously lacking from the Bovada poker app was the ability to play tournaments on your iPhone or Android so we're glad to say that they've finally rectified this issue https://forum.bitcoingambling.io/threads/bovada-mobile-poker-adds-sit-go-tournaments.448/

    Yes, they accept most major cryptos, including the ones you mentioned. They also now support the popular stablecoin Tether (USDT).
