Falling Pickaxe in Venezuela: Check the CNC List
In short: Venezuela publishes a list of the online gambling sites it has authorised. It is short: 28 casinos and 3 bingos, each with a company name, a domain and a CNC authorisation code. Checking a site against it takes a minute.
Interest in this game is higher in Venezuela than in any other country we measured, and Venezuela happens to be one country whose regulator publishes that list where a player can read it in under a minute.

Why Venezuela Matters for This Game
Venezuela matters because interest in Falling Pickaxe is concentrated there to a degree we rarely see. The name draws roughly 2,100 searches a month in Venezuela against 50 in the United States and 20 in the United Kingdom, and a second phrase pairing the game with the country adds about 1,600 more.

Many of those searches carry an operator's name alongside the game's. That is what makes the authorised list the first thing worth reading, rather than the last.
What the Venezuela List Covers
Operators, and only operators. The table names companies that have been authorised to run an online casino or bingo in Venezuela, each with the website that authorisation attaches to and a code in the form CNC-OL-25-003.
| What the CNC list carries | Count on 14 October 2026 |
|---|---|
| Online casinos with an authorisation code | 28 |
| Online bingo halls | 3 |
| Code format for casinos | CNC-OL-25-00N and CNC-OL-26-0NN |
| Code format for bingo | CNC-BO-26-001, 002 and 004 |
| Gaps in the bingo run | 003 is absent from the list |
| Game studios named anywhere in it | None — the list is of sites, not suppliers |
Read on ; the maker can change a screen without saying so.
It lists sites, and only sites: the maker of a game falls outside its remit. Suppliers are licensed, when they are licensed at all, in whatever jurisdiction they chose, which for this game is Anjouan. So the list answers the question "is this site authorised here" and says nothing about whether the game on it is what it claims to be.
A Blank on the List, and What It Means
A blank on the list means one thing only, and four operator names show why. They turn up in searches next to this game. Two of them, triunfobet.com and apuestasroyal.com, hold authorisations in the list. Two of them, 1xbet and 1win, are absent from it.
| Site a reader might search for | In the CNC list | Code |
|---|---|---|
| triunfobet.com | Yes | CNC-OL-25-003 |
| apuestasroyal.com | Yes | CNC-OL-26-017 |
| 1xbet | No | Not in the list |
| 1win | No | Not in the list |
That absence is a fact about the register, and we are careful to leave it there. Our files on those companies are empty. We have tested neither a deposit nor a withdrawal anywhere, and this page stays clear of what an operator shows, charges or allows. What we can tell you is what the regulator has published and what it has not.
Reading an Authorisation Code
The code is the link between a company and a website, and it is the part worth copying down. Casino authorisations run as CNC-OL-25-0NN for the first wave and CNC-OL-26-0NN for the second, and bingo authorisations as CNC-BO-26-0NN.
The numbering skips, which is worth knowing before you conclude something is missing. The bingo list runs 001, 002 and 004, with 003 absent at the time we read it.
Where Help in Venezuela Is Published
The same regulator that keeps the list also publishes the help. Its site carries a directory of Jugadores Anónimos groups by state, each with a 24-hour telephone number. A second directory lists the Fundaribas attention centres across the country.
We print those directories because a state regulator published them, not because we found them in a search. The footer of every page here carries the helpline list of the market whose language you are reading.
Limits of the CNC Check
The CNC check has one limit worth naming: a name on the list is a starting point and not a guarantee. The authorisation says a company was authorised on the day the table was published, and a register is only true on the day you read it, which is why we print the date we read ours.

We do not recommend treating the list as a recommendation either. It is a yes or no about authorisation, drawn up by a regulator with its own remit, and it stays silent on how any of those 28 sites behaves.
