Metawin is an offshore crypto casino and gaming platform licensed under the Anjouan (Comoros) gaming authority, operated by Asobi N.V. from Curacao, and founded by Richard 'Skel' Skelhorn. On November 3, 2024, the platform suffered a significant hot wallet exploit across Ethereum and Solana blockchains resulting in approximately $4 million in stolen funds, with blockchain investigator ZachXBT tracing the stolen assets to KuCoin and a nested HitBTC service across more than 115 attacker-linked addresses. The CEO subsequently claimed to have personally covered the losses, restoring withdrawals for approximately 95% of affected users, though the platform's offshore jurisdictional status and the underlying security vulnerability raise ongoing concerns.

On-chain investigator ZachXBT alleged in 2025 that the platform's suspected co-founder, Gurhan Kiziloz, is also the hidden operator behind BlockDAG Network, a project ZachXBT claims raised over $300 million from retail investors through deceptive social media advertising and misappropriated presale funds via Middle Eastern OTC channels. Spartans makes prominent 'provably fair' claims that lack independently verifiable third-party audit documentation, and the platform carries a below-average safety index of 6.4/10 from casino.guru, with user complaints citing refused withdrawals and unfair bonus terms.
