Same brands, same weights, two different answers. The numbers below are deposit-tested and the scores recompute every build.

The 8-point WCI gap is real, just not large. Gamdom edges 1xBet on the formula, mostly through the reserves and payout components rather than the age or licence ones. Both are within the band where a deposit-tester can recommend either, but if you only deposit once and never look at the leaderboard again, the higher number is the safer default.
Coin breadth: 1xBet accepts 15 cryptos against 11 at Gamdom. If you hold something past the top five, the breadth matters at deposit time and at withdrawal time. If you only ever move USDT or BTC, the breadth is a feature you do not use, and the count is irrelevant.
Where the two brands actually diverge on product: licence (Curaçao Gaming Authority (OGL/2023/981/0450) versus Curacao eGaming (8048/JAZ), operated through 1XCorp N.V.), operating history (1xBet is the older book by several years), and live streaming (only 1xBet carries it). Those are the axes that should decide the pick if the WCI gap is small. None of them shows up in the welcome banner, which is the operator preference, not the player one.
Take Gamdom as the default. WCI 70 against 62 is inside the margin where either operator is defensible, but the higher score is the higher score. Take 1xBet if you specifically want Massive market depth, Curacao licence, long history of regulator complaints. Bet here with eyes open. and you have read the trade-off in 1xBet's review. Both pay out. Both were deposit-tested by us this quarter.
