What is happening
The Curaçao Gaming Authority (CGA) said on 7 October that its online gaming portal "will not be returned to service" after the data leak, and that interim arrangements would be published by 9 October. As of 15 October no such notice had appeared.
Licensing has not stopped: the CGA's online register, updated 14 October, lists new licences with issue dates from 9 to 20 October. The register shows 296 licences as "Assessment in progress", 290 of them past the six-month expiry date shown against them, alongside 209 licences marked indefinite. Application forms have been moved to the CGA's main website, though several still tell applicants to upload to the abandoned portal.
What this means for the register
Curaçao licences remain valid and IRLG continues to check claimed licences against the CGA register. Because the register itself is in flux, IRLG treats "Assessment in progress" entries cautiously and re-checks them more often.
