I think it's not just the prediction contest. The previous poker contest prizes haven't been distributed either until now. A few days ago, the contest manager asked for the geo location of every winner, but there's been no update since then. I also don't understand why the management needs geo location information.

Many people participated in 1win contests, so at least don't disappoint them with issues like this. Hopefully 1win can process this as soon as possible and there won't be any more delays for the new contests.

Happy New Year everyone!

Thanks for the information. I was looking for news like this about 1win. But the web is not available in my country, so I can't access it. I always use 1win casino via telegram. If the article you provided is correct, then there is definitely a difference between a website and an app. And I think 1win will never differentiate between web and app security. If the website is available in your country.Then you can see because I can't access even using vpn.

By enabling 2FA in our account would gives more protection. Maybe the setting will be different between the web and the app but that doesn't matter. If users can activate it without a problem, they will feel safe. 1win is concerned the security and ensure they inform their users to protects the account using 2FA.

In terms of security, this is actually a rare case, unless a specific feature like fingerprint recognition isn't implemented via a web browser. The problem is that if 2FA is set up via an app, users must download it from the Play Store or App Store, which may be restricted in some regions.

Just to clarify 2FA app like Google Authenticator itself is available globally on both app stores without restrictions. The limitation is specifically with the 1win app, which may be blocked in certain countries due to gambling regulations.

If 2FA can only be set through the 1win mobile app, then users in restricted regions won't be able to set it up at all even though they can install Google Authenticator. It would be better if 1win offered 2FA setup through their website as well, so everyone can secure their accounts regardless of app availability.

They really dont care at all, when i point out my issue about them asking a silly KYC to me for very low ammount i got 0 responses from them even from royse as a manager, so the case repeats in every single direction no matter what is on the table, prizes, kyc, normal issues.

The geo confirmation is crazy plus if you didnt ask for it before you cant deny the prizes to the winners now.

Even if the pay for me is already a soft scam, you cant stretch this much the money or prizes of the people.

What do you mean by "has no system to add two factor authenticator"? And what does this has to do with fake apps on playstore? Sorry, but do you even know what 2FA means in this context and how to activate/use it?
Anyway, regarding 2FA, in my humble opinion, any reputable casino should offer this feature to ensure the security of its users. I don’t think implementing it would cost them too much.

As I check one of their Poker tournament, I see that there are information about reward distribution, but there is no information on who is responsible for distribution. There is a disclaimer at the end of that poker tournament thread but nothing is written about disclaimer of reward distribution.

I agree with you and other people that if previous tournaments, contests did not complete reward distributions for participants, the manager should stop publishing new ones. For future tournaments and contests, the manager might consider add maximum distribution time, like one week or two weeks or even longer time, after ending time of each tournament/ contest. It will be more transparent and participants will know more clearly about their maximum waiting time for reward distributions before making any complaint.

Someone already raised his concern about that situation happened https://bt.irlbtc.com/view/5570342.0 Many people now are aware about that situation and if 1win cannot distribute the prizes maybe this might be the reason that their reputation in this forum might get ruined.

So they better pay attention to that issue seriously since for sure that many people don't want to see those issue continue to exist. So maybe if they read the ongoing discussions happening in this thread also on that thread raised by that person maybe they start to look at on those issue and try their best to solve it.

whats the point of asking geolocation when they would just disqualify participants for claiming prizes.

just like for my case, I was disqualified because I of multiaccount. If I was using multiaccount I wouldn't waste my time since they asked me for KYC since the very beginning they won't give any proper explanation. It might be because I was using VPN to play Pragmatic providers since it isn't available in my region

but seeing this delayed payments, It might just be they really don't want to pay or whatnot.
