I think that it's certainly an issue.
However, the casinos who offer their services can't really do much other than to offer links to counselling sites and shut down any suspected minor accounts.
At the end of the day, you're the ones making the decisions. If the casino has clearly stated that it's for 18+ people only and there is a self exclusion scheme that you don't use, you can't really blame the game for your losses.

Crypto gambling has many more risks than CSGO skin gambling, the chance to lose more is higher, and the stakes are heightened. Gambling at a young age will also effect your metal health, for me, I would stay up very late some nights just to gamble. Gambling addiction can also lead to depression, which in some cases has caused underage gamblers to take their own life. This is an unfortunate reality for those who are gambling underage.
So if you have a problem with gambling, such as addiction, gambling underage, or in my case both, please seek help. Do everything in your power to stop. It will improve your life drastically. So next time you think about gambling, instead of gambling, call an old friend and catch up, or go outside and go for a nice walk. Have a good one!
"epidemic" is for viruses, but even with that it is regional. If you gambled at stake in anywhere of the world it gets out of epidemic and becomes pandemic, hence why covid is pandemic and not epidemic as well. Underage gambling can't be stopped without KYC and many people here like me do not want to have a KYC requirement everywhere we gamble. Which is why I honestly believe that we should be doing fine.So if you have a problem with gambling, such as addiction, gambling underage, or in my case both, please seek help. Do everything in your power to stop. It will improve your life drastically. So next time you think about gambling, instead of gambling, call an old friend and catch up, or go outside and go for a nice walk. Have a good one!
I know that we do not feel the big weight of this problem until someone gets hurt, but at the same time do we really feel responsible for others actions? If you are 14 years old and gamble at stake, is this the problem of stake, or others who do not stop stake? Or is this the problem that you have? Let's assume you steal from someone, or murder someone, is that our fault? You can do something illegal and you are taking that illegal option yourself, we are not giving it to you.
It's the parent's responsibility to keep their kids away from gambling and it's also the responsibility of the gambling houses and websites to keep away from children, even the government has to have some responsibility too, this epidemic can only be decimated by a combined effort of those 3 that I've mentioned but the biggest one should be the parents as they are the first line of defense of the kid.
So we should watch out for our kids for what they had played. Because as OP said, it was started when OP was playing CSGO, so meaning to say, there are a bunch of games that can influence underage people to gamble. But that is right, parents should have the responsibility for what their kids doing because we dont know that their activities are involved in gambling which we thought is fine since we saw it is only an online game.However, limit and manage the activity of your kids is a good step and we should keep our eyes on them.
I am sorry to hear that you are in this situation..getting addicted to anything can be a very hard thing. I have to say I am impressed that you're so young yet signed up for bitcointalk and obviously know about bitcoin and perhaps "investing" some money in it. I however don't think that gambling is that big of a problem for younger aged people like yourself. I dunno maybe things have changed but when I was your age I didn't know anyone at all who gambled. It was just never a thing and I have a hard time believing that it is now. 14 year old's tend to not have much money after all.
So if you have a problem with gambling, such as addiction, gambling underage, or in my case both, please seek help. Do everything in your power to stop. It will improve your life drastically.

Hey, we are actually on the same spot!
I remember back in 2011-2013 where DOTA 2 keys where still in circulation, I used to bet my 30 keys (valued around $60) daily on dota2lounge website where I would be able to double or triple my profit. This gave me a false sense of security where I thought I was going to win every game on the team that I betted on. Unfortunately, all of my keys lost in the process which lead me to use the credit card of my dad (I was age 15) to purchase more keys.
To cut the story short, I lost all of my keys in the process and I receive a scolding of my life from my dad. The tip that you mentioned here is the essence of combating addiction- go have a walk or talk to someone. It will change your perspective and pull you out from that abyss and loop of gambling!
Most gambling site dont advice people below 18 years to participate.but I started playing gamble when I was 15 years , it was a normal thing to me, I didn't take it too serious though.
Site if are not strict then they would want as many users join them so that the more you play, end up losing means site benefits form it. IN the end its their business to make profits irrespective if you are 15 or 25 they do not bother much. But as an individual we need to thin that what is the age I should be when I can start gambling.
At 14 years old, I don't understand why it's easy for you to test gambling. Most people at that age even that are even exposed to gambling are not interested since there are lots of things they can do like video games, computer games, mobile games.
At that age, they won't bother registering on the site and deposit a money. How can they deposit money on crypto in the first place? The exchange needs KYC before you can make a deposit with your fiat. And even before that, where are you getting your money?

As a factor that can influence a person to gamble is the environment around him and what appears on his cell phone is often there. I am thinking the same as you, how did he get this far in gambling to take gambling to the crypto stage and earn without going through KYC Lev1 data (minimum) based on residence ID which includes age. This can obviously hold him back, but not if someone else is intermediary for him to own crypto and receive it in his wallet.
Since the most important point was that he really had quit, even then if it was true what he said wasn't just an alibi. Despite the truth, this is certainly a positive thing. I wish he would share how he was able to quit at a young age when it comes to gambling whose addiction levels are more difficult to control than adults even when it is hard to quit gambling.
I remember your case, you had created another thread about it, I hope you get through it and seek help eventually.
Back to the subject now, no casino/website I've signed up requested any kind of verification. I get it that cryptocurrencies are supposed to be anonymous, but there are quite a few ways for underage users to obtain coins. I believe that there should be some kind of verification when signing up.
On the other hand, gambling websites will be against such measures, they don't really care about who and how their websites are being used, as long as money is being made.

Gambling addiction is not good for anybody, both adults and teenagers. But, is worst when underage gets into gambling, because it always distract them from their studies and affect their Career, also they end up losing huge amount of money on gambling. But, I think what leads many teenagers into gambling are their friends, many of them are been introduced into gambling through thier friends. Although, some of them gets to know about Gambling through the internet. Am glad the OP, finally took a great step by quiting gambling.
Aside from family nature, friends are the mostly influenced this young adults, they've been introduced by means of stories and from that kids nowadays do have access online, they can easily research everything.
This kind of concern is part of the hardest issues that most parents are battling. They are unsure if how their kids will live along with these vices.
Without any good guidance, it will corrupt young minds and ruined their future. It's best trying everything to solve this and keep kids aways from gambling while you still can. The more engagement they've, the deeper they are digging from this business.
Hey guys! I have recently taken steps to get out of gambling at age 14 so I want to share some information I got along the way!
I started gambling when I first started playing CSGO on skins gambling websites I had seen on Youtube. Fast forward a few years, and I am gambling cryptocurrency on Stake.com at the age of 14 years old. This is a problem, gambling for me was easily accessible, easy to get into, and fun. This caused me to spend more time doing it and to deposit more coins to make the stakes higher, I didn't lose much, but didn't win much also, I would split even most of the time. Yesterday, after realizing how much I think about it I made a thread asking people for some advice on the situation, and the overwhelming majority said that I should leave the gambling scene because of how young I am. I totally agreed.
Now I want to help other people that were in the situation that I was in recently, if you have a problem with gambling, and/or are underage, please quit. There is no gain in a website that is against you. You are playing by their rules and will lose in the long run.
Underage gambling starts, for alot of people like how I did, gambling online items, sometimes worth real money, to try and get better items. This fueled the fire that caused alot of underage gamblers, including myself, to start looking into higher stakes gambling, crypto gambling.
Crypto gambling has many more risks than CSGO skin gambling, the chance to lose more is higher, and the stakes are heightened. Gambling at a young age will also effect your metal health, for me, I would stay up very late some nights just to gamble. Gambling addiction can also lead to depression, which in some cases has caused underage gamblers to take their own life. This is an unfortunate reality for those who are gambling underage.
So if you have a problem with gambling, such as addiction, gambling underage, or in my case both, please seek help. Do everything in your power to stop. It will improve your life drastically. So next time you think about gambling, instead of gambling, call an old friend and catch up, or go outside and go for a nice walk. Have a good one!
Thanks for sharing your story as it is useful to see the perspectives of those that are underage, personally I have never liked video games that have a gambling aspect to them and in which you can exchange items for real money precisely because of this, I think this encourages gambling decisions on the young that they are simply not ready to take at such an early age, then they make the transition to traditional gambling and that is when they develop problems that will take them a lot of time to overcome.

I am truly glad that OP at such a young age understands more than some adults. Admitting the existence of gambling addiction to understand that it is detrimental to his life and begin to fight it is a very big step in the right direction. I wish you the best of luck in your endeavor!
Most adults know they have a addiction. I do not think it is a step in the right direction and I think that is a cliche that gives the impression that people are doing the right thing about admitting to it. Everyone in this thread probably has a gambling addiction to some percentage and they probably are aware that they have a problem. It does not stop them chasing the odds of getting rich though and admitting it to themselves is not going to stop them from doing that. If a person realizes that he has some kind of addiction he has two ways to go:
1 start to get rid of the addiction
2 to pretend that the problem does not exist.
The guy chose the first option and I am sure he not only will save his money but his friends and family and he will have a real chance to achieve something in life and not become a loser who squanders all his money in the slot machine. What could he achieve by wasting his time, money and nerves on gambling?
What you did is good. You are indeed too young to gamble. Although you can gamble after you turn 18 I think the legal age for gambling should be after you turn 21.
That's when we start to realize how important money is and how we should not spend more on gambling and stay in out limits.
Gambling addiction is very easy and if started at a young age like yours it can really cause bad affects on your life.
I am happy that you became aware soon and were able to stop gambling before it became too late.
I would encourage you to lead the example for other youngsters like you could follow.

Gambling at 14 is really dangerous, i wonder how you had the finance to fund your gambling. It's really a good thing that you have quit, if not you were already on the journey to financial penury and hardship in life starting at such an early age.
Almost all that are underage are stealing from their parents to fund their gambling addiction. You cannot deposit on most gambling sites without having a valid credit card which is registered to a person over the legal gambling age which varies on location. As for me, parents still have the responsibility to take control of their kids' actions while they're still young. We should educate our kids about how gambling could ruin lives because of its risks. We all know that teenagers nowadays couldn't make firm decisions and they mostly depend on what they see on the internet but parents should guide them. We must serve as their eye-opener about the reality of teenage gambling addiction.
How can you monitor their activities? If they are stealing from you to fund their gambling addiction then that will be easy to identify by looking at bank statements but there will be other people who use cryptocurrency and that would be harder to identify from a parent. Educating kids is not going to help because all they see is that they could win big money and they do not understand statistics. Even if you taught them statistics they would still think they would be the one person to win it because their brains have not fully developed. I think gambling age should be raised in most countries to 21/23 years old. 
It is difficult to avoid online gambling because during the pandemic all activities are required to use online technology which is very vulnerable from advertisements and gambling sites and others that are inappropriate for minors to click and use.
and it's only natural that they get entangled in online gambling because they often see it when using gadgets so they are curious and finally join, so I think it's difficult to solve it because they are also involved because gambling sites and advertisements are very transparent on social media and so on.
and in my area there are also many teenagers who are already involved in online gambling and they do it without their parents knowing.

You are not losing just because you are underage, winning is different and not everyone is tasting it in the long run.
Being underage will not let you to make clear decisions while there can be an exception but in general minors can't able to handle their stress and burst it out in many different ways and some of them end in a fatal as well. All these things are happening because you are not gambling with your own money and if you earn money on your own then you know the struggles involved so you will take a clear decisions about how to spend your money.

It's a good thing that you have quit according to you, i hope it is able to stay that way without relapsing and you are able to replace the thrill or satisfaction that you derived from gambling with another activity.

Parents really have too many responsibilities and quite a lot of daily work, a small talk with their children is almost quite difficult in this modern and technologically advanced age, especially in countries with developed economies, most of the living environment provides children with a sense of independence and rely as little on their parents as possible. This kind of education allows the next generation to automatically try harder, gambling opportunities are also many due to this independence and this method but I feel that there are very few early addicts, the sense of self-control of these children is very high For me, it's better to get addicted now than experiencing it while you already have responsibilities like wife and kids. When you are just a teenager, you will have limited funds to gamble, and eventually, you will get over addiction when you found another hobby. It's bad when you got addicted to casinos while the money meant for your family is spent to gambling.
Being a teen as I was when I started gambling, it does not really bothersome when I lose as I still have my friends with me after the game. The money will still be spent on the vodka we'll drink.
There is so much more to do for a teen in fact they will still find some girls and screw or make love. They're more likely going to find other things to get addicted to after gambling than forget life. It's not like their life is over and becomes hopeless when they gamble at an early stage of life. Teens that experience hardship as early as 14 grow smarter in life unless they really like to end up in the nuthouse because they joined the wrong crowd.
I think he will mean it with his intentions. He also asked his dad for help to block gambling sites.
Maybe there is, but in my country it seems like elementary age children, they only know to play a game. No cases have been revealed in my country so far regarding underage gambling or children of primary or high school age. I think they start to understand gambling when they enter high school. Besides my country is a country that prohibits gambling, maybe they are aware. This is just my thoughts, I'm just describing me when I was in high school. Not many are interested in gambling, they are interested in motor modifications.
It's surprising that you have gone through this at the age of 14, it's not easy what you have gone through, some adults have a hard time getting out of their addiction, at a very young age you got out from falling into addiction, there is a youngster who is also a victim of depression because of gambling, there should be an intervention by the parents because the youngster has no one to go through but their parents, parents should know what are the warning signs so they can take action and save their kids.
As for me, parents still have the responsibility to take control of their kids' actions while they're still young. We should educate our kids about how gambling could ruin lives because of its risks.

You cannot prevent it if the parents themselves cannot control or limit the activities of their children. Children are very smart in this day and age, and if they get their hands on something that they really want, they will do everything to learn things related to it and bypass some restrictions. We don't need KYCs and stricter verification rules. We need their parents to be vigilant and take action on their children's activities
Ten or fifteen years ago that is not the case, children are playing games outside and hanging out with friends and watch movies and their favorite TV shows but since the creation of computers and the internet, children have made a big shift instead of playing outside they prefer to play games in front of the computer.
This is the age of accessibility where everything can be access and everything are online, and if parents cannot monitor their children there's a possibility that they discover these online gambling sites, online gambling among underage is very alarming and parents should be aware of it, only parents can stop them, OP is lucky that he got out without his parent's knowing that he is deep in gambling.

Betting is not bad as long as you limit yourself on it, however, you'll never notice it became your habit until you've lost too much on it, that's when you'll think of a plan on how to get rid of that addiction. Getting into the gambling world at a very young age is not a problem, because you'll easily admit it and will eventually ask for help compare if an adult get addicted on gambling which is hard.
Adult mostly have a high pride, they'll never admit that they are in a very critical state (or addiction) because their mindset would always be "I'm too old and I can take care of myself, I don't need help" something like that, that's why they are hopeless case most of the time.

Normal for underaged people to easily get hooked with gambling addiction because we arent really that mature on dealing up with things specially with those real gambling games.Of course on where things do becomes more worst if you do really tolerate it even you do already observed or you are already aware that it is gradually becoming worst because this is how addiction works or affect someone on where they do really able to commit out mistake.Gambling activity do really start up from curiosity then small things turns out to be bigger ones but it wont really be directly be called as a mistake if you do know on how to handle up your finances.
Gambling industry is a profitable business which it isnt surprising that it is one of the most biggest businesses nowadays which does simply means that there are lots of people who do get hooked by it.
There are lots of addicted gamblers who do continue up to generate profits into this casino owners.
We are responsible for our own actions imho.You wont get addicted if you do just play in moderation and wont tend go beyond your limits or capacity then you should be fine.
Good thing you were able to seek help and you are willing to digest the advice of the members here. At 14 years old, there's a lot of things you can enjoy, you don't have to think of money yet as you are still a minor and you can ask your parent's financial support.
Try to go on activities that are not addictive, gambling is really addictive especially for minors who are still innocent of how this world moves.

Gambling at a young age can lead them to have an addiction when they grow and once they are addicted to gambling, it will be hard to solve since they know to gamble since they are young. Your idea to call an old friend and catch up or go outside is better than playing gambling together in your room because you will see that you have many things that both of you can do other than just playing gambling. If you can learn about trading, that will be better since you can make a profit and have the investment when you graduate in the future. It is better to prepare for your future than to get addicted when you graduate.
Indeed due to online gambling accessibility through the use of Internet. This is a common problem right now since many crypto casino doesn't require KYC(a sort of pros and cons). I wonder how come this underage get funds to sustain there online gambling addiction because during my childhood, My parents didn't gave me too much money that worthy to spend on this kind of expensive activity. Maybe parenting is the root of this problem since an underage will never access gambling with strict supervision.
Good for you that you quit already. Maybe try to share to the details on how you quit gambling. It will be more helpful.
Many of the underage people nowadays don't necessarily need their parents to give them money before can play gambling since there are so many ways for them to make money online even in the forum here like the OP. But what they should know is that, too much of everything is not good and they should not be too desperate to make money as what you tend to lose in playing gambling maybe more than what you will get at the end of the day. Is better to get addicted to investing in crypto currency that in playing gambling. Good for you that you quit already. Maybe try to share to the details on how you quit gambling. It will be more helpful.
At 14 years old, I don't understand why it's easy for you to test gambling. Most people at that age even that are even exposed to gambling are not interested since there are lots of things they can do like video games, computer games, mobile games.
At that age, they won't bother registering on the site and deposit a money. How can they deposit money on crypto in the first place? The exchange needs KYC before you can make a deposit with your fiat. And even before that, where are you getting your money?

OP is just an example of those kids who were not just a normal kid like video games or any game related on online but OP is having a deep curiosity about gambling. He is being a keen observer about gambling and with a strong guts to take risk to try gambling. Underage gambling is alarming but we can't blame a child being exposed to gambling site because they can just found it online, they can be learn about it trough online platform that shows how to learn about it. It is good to know that OP have had found his way out of being engaged in gambling activities.
I wonder if you're living with your own now OP or you're still with your parent/s, if the latter how come they aren't aware on this and where does your money comes from? Sometimes others can't escape the current rhythm if you're on that stage and it will take courage and strong mind to get out of that addiction. The best thing is to have some guardian/s watching over teenagers regarding the matter.
Tell me something @QuickAccount... did you have any outside incentive that helped you make this decision to stop playing?
You said you stopped recently, have you ever been tempted in any way to get back into the game? If so, how did you resist it?

I think he will mean it with his intentions. He also asked his dad for help to block gambling sites.
And this decision is very correct. There is no denying that gambling has a negative psychological effect for underages. Gambling is just entertainment for those who have a steady income. Casinos that truly respect gambling etiquette only accept customers over the age of 18 (even on the stake. com site where he plays).

well he already explained everything happened when he was too fond of gambling in csgo . until finally he became more interested in gambling at the casino, maybe at that age I was more interested in in-game items than risk real money
btw at the age of 14, I don't think there is any special job to earn money unless he is a young business man or creative entrepreneur.
Hey guys! I have recently taken steps to get out of gambling at age 14 so I want to share some information I got along the way!

Tell me something @QuickAccount... did you have any outside incentive that helped you make this decision to stop playing?
You said you stopped recently, have you ever been tempted in any way to get back into the game? If so, how did you resist it? Because I think the temptation to go back is much more difficult than the moment you decide to stop.
In any case, congratulations for your strength of will and also for sharing your experience with us.
Thankfully, you learned your lesson from the past thread that you made.
I have been a player before of an MMORPG that buys their premium cards to be top up-ed at their game in exchange for items. Yes, kind of old school, right? I bet you didn't experience that.
$10 worth scratch cards to play the game for a week and some premium items to be traded with co-players in exchange for weapons and other equipment. Or, just in game money and save it for later.
Nowadays, gambling in game was different because it's about skins to look cooler while in our era we use those money for strengthening the character.
Spending money for your visual pleasure, yes it's still considered gambling but sadly that's it for return and no money will come back.

So if you have a problem with gambling, such as addiction, gambling underage, or in my case both, please seek help. Do everything in your power to stop. It will improve your life drastically. So next time you think about gambling, instead of gambling, call an old friend and catch up, or go outside and go for a nice walk. Have a good one!

I think the main reason why gambling addiction is a pretty big and important topic for underage persons is the fact that teenagers have just not finished their development yet both physically and also mentally of course. so i think teenagers are just much more prone to developing an addiction, whether it's online gambling or regular video games or whatever. I also think that the parents have a big responsibility there to keep their children safe and healthy but of course i know that is also pretty easy to say but very hard to do in the real world, because 14 year old teenagers will probably not like it if their parents are controlling them all the time.
the overwhelming majority said that I should leave the gambling scene because of how young I am. I totally agreed.
This is not about your age but instead about your activities , you seem to be close to becoming addicted .so since you are agreed then why not stop?

Now I want to help other people that were in the situation that I was in recently, if you have a problem with gambling, and/or are underage, please quit. There is no gain in a website that is against you. You are playing by their rules and will lose in the long run.
this sounds simple but it is not because gambling is really entertaining and addicted , when you come to win a big amount in the beginning then you will be dead in the future because the desire to win more will always there.

I started gambling when I first started playing CSGO on skins gambling websites I had seen on Youtube. Fast forward a few years, and I am gambling cryptocurrency on Stake.com at the age of 14 years old. This is a problem, gambling for me was easily accessible, easy to get into, and fun. This caused me to spend more time doing it and to deposit more coins to make the stakes higher, I didn't lose much, but didn't win much also, I would split even most of the time. Yesterday, after realizing how much I think about it I made a thread asking people for some advice on the situation, and the overwhelming majority said that I should leave the gambling scene because of how young I am. I totally agreed.

Even though you are under age but i know that very experienced gamblers face the same situation whereby they spent more money, become greedy and also addicted to gambling.
However, gambling at underage has more severe side effects like you will lose the money of your parents and also you won't be able to focus on studies which will badly effect your career.
At 14 years old, I don't understand why it's easy for you to test gambling. Most people at that age even that are even exposed to gambling are not interested since there are lots of things they can do like video games, computer games, mobile games.
At that age, they won't bother registering on the site and deposit a money. How can they deposit money on crypto in the first place? The exchange needs KYC before you can make a deposit with your fiat. And even before that, where are you getting your money?

I guess it's one of the negative aspect of online, you can just play anytime even at a young age of 14 years old. He may have started with the CSGO Skins gambling with become a phenomena, you can read another story here, 16 years old turn into a compulsive gambler:

So it's a billion dollar industry, and every young kids are hook into it.

I find that hard to believe. When did you get in gambling? Do your parents not care for you?
At 14 years old, I don't understand why it's easy for you to test gambling.
well, gambling is easily accessible especially if it is online. so, there is no surprise if kids nowadays are exposed to gambling or are gambling at a young age.Most people at that age even that are even exposed to gambling are not interested since there are lots of things they can do like video games, computer games, mobile games.
like you said, "most people". I for one got exposed to gambling at a very young age, yet I didn't get addicted to it. but when I was in my teenage years I got hooked on online games(mmorpg) that has lottery boxes which was where I got addicted but was able to get out of it(not really sure how).

It's not just the internet where anyone can now go online gambling that can/may trigger your urge to gamble. Some cases are because of gambling personal or face to face with other underage by betting from each other by the use of game or other ways that they can think of. Most of underage here in my country already gamble like cockfigh, by online games such as csgo, crossfire, dota 2 and other online games where winner takes all except casino where underage cannot go in.
It's good you realized that early and share your thoughts here.
But I don't see any young fellas trolling here in this section so better bring your guides and advice too on young people around you.
I hope your decision is long-term and you can keep up with that for a long period. You are still young and will encounter gambling more while you are growing up or be associated with friends that do gamble regularly.

So you're still in school and you were already addicted to gambling? When you get to all that, don't you have homework to do and study for exams?
Stop it now while you are young. You saw how this can affect your life, think about that as you grow older you will have more and more money and you will gamble bigger and bigger ammounts; gambling ruins lives, not makes them better. Also being 14, now you are developing as an individual ,don't make gambling be part of your personality as you grow 
. Sites can do nothing to prevent you from playing, only yourself, so think twice before clicking on deposit button. What do you want to do with your life? Even the worse gambler father will never want to see his kid gambling, I don't want to see my girl gambling when she will grow for sure.

Indeed due to online gambling accessibility through the use of Internet. This is a common problem right now since many crypto casino doesn't require KYC(a sort of pros and cons). I wonder how come this underage get funds to sustain there online gambling addiction because during my childhood, My parents didn't gave me too much money that worthy to spend on this kind of expensive activity. Maybe parenting is the root of this problem since an underage will never access gambling with strict supervision.
Good for you that you quit already. Maybe try to share to the details on how you quit gambling. It will be more helpful.
