Paid link. Niekie may earn a commission if you sign up through it. The score is computed before any of that and cannot see it, so a commission cannot move this operator up or down. How we score.
Does Vave pay out?
Yes, we have watched it happen. Between 6 August 2026 and 20 September 2026 we observed 846 transfers leaving Vave's wallets on 6 separate days, across 3 addresses on 3 chains.
| Days money left their wallets | 6 |
| Outgoing transfers observed | 846 |
| Incoming transfers observed | 1,160 |
| Chains watched | ETH, POLYGON, TRON |
| Addresses watched | 3 |
These are the wallets we have attributed to this operator, so every figure is a floor and never a total: wallets we have not found are invisible to us. An outgoing transfer is money leaving, which is not the same as proof that a named player was paid. Both facts are on a public ledger and you can check the same blocks we did.
Were you paid?
A confirmed withdrawal from a real player is the strongest evidence this index holds, and it outweighs every automated check on this page. If Vave has paid you, say so and it becomes part of the score.

Terms and conditions
What that means in practice
- tc_scan_timeout
Read from the operator's own terms page on Aug 8, 2026 at vave.com. We report what it says, not whether it is honoured.
Recent activity
What has changed
Most casino reviews are written once and never touched again. Over the years I have read plenty that still quote a welcome bonus withdrawn two years earlier, and nothing on the page tells you it is stale. A score that never moves is not a steady score, it is an abandoned one. So every change we record for Vave is listed here with the date we recorded it, and you can judge for yourself how closely anyone is actually watching.

Audit ledger
Each time this score is calculated the inputs are sealed into an append-only ledger and hashed. The record below is the current one. Recompute the digest yourself and it has to match, or our arithmetic is wrong.

To check it, hash the canonical record with keys sorted and no insignificant whitespace:
node -e "const c=v=>Array.isArray(v)?v.map(c):v&&typeof v==='object'?Object.keys(v).sort().reduce((a,k)=>(a[k]=c(v[k]),a),{}):v;
const p=require('./record.json');
console.log(require('crypto').createHash('sha256').update(JSON.stringify(c(p))).digest('hex'))"
