The date the operator does not issue itself
A figure on a casino's own front page is a claim by that casino. A figure inside a licence number is a statement by the supervisor, and it sits in a register anybody can open.
- Anjouan puts the year and month in the third to sixth digits. ALSI-202602030-FI2 reads as February 2026.
- Curaçao names the year in the second section: OGL/2024/1676/0905. That is not accurate to the month, but it narrows the period.
- Older Curaçao numbers of the form 1668/JAZ carry no date at all. They come from before the move to today's register format.

Shaded green are the entries carrying a year and a month. The rest carry only a year, and 3 entries in this comparison (Sportbet.one, Rocketpot, LTC Casino) have no readable date at all — which is why they are missing here, not because they are old.
What a recent licence date means in practice
Two things, and they pull in opposite directions.
- Checked under the current procedure. At Curaçao that is a noticeable difference since the move to today's Gaming Authority: applications are examined differently from the old model with its sub-licences.
- No track record. A house that has existed for six months has no disputes — not because it is good, but because it has not had time to have any. Anyone relying on what other players say will find nothing at a new bitcoin casino to rely on.
That is why “new” is neither a plus nor a minus in this comparison. It is a property to know about and weigh against your own preference: a fresh procedure against an existing record.
What a new casino can still be measured by
By exactly the same five blocks as every other. A young house can take full marks in each of them, because not one of the blocks measures years in business.
