The controversy stems from the perception that Curacao, a small island nation, may not have the necessary resources or regulatory bodies to ensure fairness and justice in the online gambling industry. Despite hosting over 450 online casinos, the Curacao gambling license is often criticized as being as authoritative as a 'wet napkin,' implying it's easy to obtain and doesn't guarantee stringent oversight. This has raised concerns about the legitimacy and trustworthiness of casinos licensed there.
