I confess that this is an interesting topic, currently I played very few times in Casino Blockchain, I don't know if in fact this type of Casino will replace the Traditional.
Casino Blockchain has several advantages such as easy accessibility, they are more reliable and we can check them and others qualities!!
Topic: Blockchain casino Vs Traditional casino (Read 132 times)
I took my time recently to look at the differences between blockchain casinos and the traditional casino, and I decided to make a thread for this discussion here.
Before introducing cryptocurrency gambling on the blockchain, we were used to the traditional online casino.
Both the traditional casino and blockchain casino have some similarities but again with their differences in terms of mode of operations and games availabilities, I will explain one of their differences and other users can add their views in the comment sections so we can help newbies who are new to gambling make the best gambling decisions.
1 Difference in games history and tracing, one of the major differences between blockchain casino games to the traditional casino is the fact that blockchain casino is the engine room for dice games to take off in the gambling industry and granting the best probably fair game, the blockchain technology allows players to check if the game was transparent and all games can be reviewed through regeneration of transaction hashes on the blockchain, But in the traditional casino, only the house can view the game process and players are left at the mercy of the house edge.

You described the main difference and probably the only one between classic and blockchain casino. At least I can see only this one difference.
This is what makes blockchain transparent and fair. There is no cheat, so everything becomes countable and verifiable through blockchain transactions.
Winnings are still ended up on RNG or basically luck. The chance of winning is still subject to the algorithm.
But whatever the circumstances, do you think gamblers really care about this fairness? They will gamble to death and play with their respective luck either playing with blockchain or traditional casinos.
This is a normal thinking of a gambler, as long as they have the money to gamble they will play at no specific casinos, because both are ok to gamble and many still prefer to gamble on a traditional way. Though a lot of good crypto gambling site in the market, I believe they are growing more compare to the traditional casinos, if this continues traditional casinos might start to adopt cryptocurrency. But whatever the circumstances, do you think gamblers really care about this fairness? They will gamble to death and play with their respective luck either playing with blockchain or traditional casinos.

The thing about crypto casinos is that everything can start one, in a traditional casino setup you need so much money, even the machines itself would be a lot of money for some people, and the land you own or rent is another huuuuge entry point, basically the capital requirement for starting even the tiniest place could set you back as much as 100k and probably few million dollars if you want a semi-decent small place. Whereas in crypto world I can start a new casino, with just dice, for under $100 and it wouldn't even take that long to build it.
So, simply all I have to say is that we are in a situation where everyone can start a blockchain casino and that is why they are looking down on by so many, whereas blockchain casinos actually make a lot more money, because the costs are a lot less so they are capable of spending a lot more money.

The both operate almost alike I think the only difference is the availability of newer games just like dice, plinko and crash and with this some traditional casino still have them listed even though in a local setup but it's pretty much the same. Then the transperancy in blockchain casino should be another attractive side that would give it edge over traditional casinos.
The same thing goes for blockchain casinos, they still have a house edge on their game. I think these comparison shows how well casinos try to improve their own way of making things fair and not just rely on the blockchain alone.
As a knowledgeable gambler with years of experience, can you please share more clarity to this statement as am a bit confused, if I understand what you mean by houses depending on blockchain hashes to decide the result of the game?
I guess what he's trying to say is that some casinos use blockchain hashes to determine the results but they call themselves as traditional casinos rather than a blockchain casino. The better term for this is probably on chain casino since these type of casinos used to be popular back then. 
I never heard of a casino that is called a blockchain casino, or if I hear one maybe they are not anymore existing now. What I think is that blockchain casino is not a feasible business, people want instant outcomes and it's only possible if we don't rely on the blockchain for the result.
Blockchain is used for payment system verification only, that's the current setup now.

Yeah, but people do confuse to distinguish what is blockchain, cryptocurrency and cryptography.These days, all the crypto gambling houses are making use of cryptography to provide provably fair system which got nothing to do with blockchain (blockchain is a distributed data recording/maintaining system which is secured by cryptography).
Probably this topic will be more appropriate to have interesting discussion if it is about crypto casino vs traditional casino. Still, I guess we have already had that kind of discussions already here.
I think traditional casino can also have blockchain payment, there might not be a contrast comparison as envisaged.
It was started few years back when many traditional casino adopted bitcoin and some other crypto currencies.
Blockchain payment is better for online gambling; 1protecting the identity of gamblers, 2faster payment, takes care of proximity and time etc
1do you want to say about anonymity? Nowadays many blockchain casinos starting to ask KYC verification because of regulations and their gambling license.
2Faster payment: not really, it depends on the casinos because there are still many casinos do manual withdrawal, and manual deposit (waiting for few confirmation).
We have our own choices I choose Blockchain casinos since we all know that it can be trusted because we can verify it but in traditional casino sometimes it came from third party provider which we are not sure if fair or not, but I think many people still prefer the traditional casino rather than the blockchain casino.
Can you please expound on how blockchain type of casino can verify the odds in a probably fair type of setting? I am somehow confused as to the difference between a traditional casino and a blockchain casino as I think it is impossible to fully verify all the transactions listed on a blockchain casino. Even though it offers transparency, I doubt that one has the capability or patience to check it.
Regardless, I would still prefer any casino whether it is blockchain based or not. What matters is its ongoing reputation and customer service to its players.
One unique feature of blockchain casinos is the new varieties of games available to gamblers as well as the transperancy as you @op listed out. The Advent of blockchain casinos has erased lots of doubt and behind the secene activities leaving an open review.
Not only that but we have :
1. More variety
2. Fair rates
3. Easy accessibility
4. Better odds
5. A lot of options regarding the casinos, international and local ones alike
Etc..
I do think that if you are going for the experience then you might as well go to a casino which is traditional, but if you are considering playing during the pandemic and staying inside the house then might as well go for a online crypto casino, you will get much better options.

The only difference between the online casino and traditional casino is that online casino uses internet and cryptocurrency as a new twist, but the functionality of the house is still the same, fair and square but of course the house chances of winning is much bigger than the players. In short, both are still risky so everyone should still be careful on making decisions towards betting.
When we say blockchain casino, it should be decentralized, but what we are using or patronizing now is just a traditional casino type but on a different type of payment method, which is crypto. There are blockchain casinos already, but they are not popular If I'm not mistaken, so traditional casinos will continue to dominate with the addition of crypto as a payment method.
We are still into traditional type of gambling as most crypto gambling things are not happening on blockchain but making use of cryptography (not cryptocurrency) to have things fairer and simpler for everyone.
I remember some houses which are fully depending on blockchain hashes to decide about the outcome of a game still they are referring it and not gambling on blockchain.
In my understanding a pure blockchain based gambling should be something unimaginable as per my current level of knowledge on blockchain technology.
Overall, just using cryptocurrencies for depositing/withdrawing will not make a house a blockchain based one.

I agree on this.

The process is generally the same, as well as the type of games and whatnot. The difference is actually like how fiat transactions and Bitcoin transactions are, it's quite comparable to it. As you said, transactions and wins are transparent, and not only that, it also takes into account the advantages that Crypto brings as a currency compared to fiat. Still I don't think there's a full crypto casino that fully uses the blockchain to use it in everything? There's still a mix of traditional casinos in the mix from what I know.
So you point out that the Blockchain casino is more transparent than traditional casino? I would agree with that because in the Blockchain casino you can really check if your game is fair or not by verifying it with your seed while in traditional casino we are not really sure if it is fair or not. So far I haven't heard any news or report about casino that's been cheating or maybe they weren't caught just yet.
Thanks for this update i have being looking around for such information for some time now, i have have been a regular player in the traditional casinos but covid-19 have restricted me to online gambling which have been fun a the while. can you please include some examples of sites that are using blockchain fully for crytocurrency casinos i only know of bustadice.
