Slots machine are already a cashless game on casinos way before the pandemic if I’m not mistaken, all you have to do is to load your membership card and you’re free to play so I think going a 100% cashless casinos is still in the making and on a process. This is a great move by that casino and I hope many will follow especially on a game where different people playing on the table, as the chips can get virus as well.

No, that's not how most casino's work, you still have to put money on the slot machine before you can pay, so obviously, those memberships card that you are talking about needs to be loaded through that slot machine itself. The problem is how about those who don't have a membership card? So you withdraw your winnings through a piece of paper, you go to the counter and exchange that.

And perhaps this is the reason why Casino Resort Spa in Michigan created this more of a cash less transactions as a result of pandemic as compare to the old and traditional wherein contact is necessary. So I guess this is good and could set a trend for other big casino's to follow.

I only think that using cashless in the land-based casino in this pandemic will be a good way for the customer at the casino.
They can prevent from using the paper money, and they can protect it against the virus.
If the casino can launch their own card for their members, and the members could only need to deposit some money to playing gambling, that will make their customers and members interested in using it.
But to see the land-based casino will use bitcoin, I think that will not happen in a short time because they need approval from the government to accept bitcoin or another coin to playing gambling.
If the land-based casinos accept Bitcoin is available in my area, maybe I will visit that place and try to play gambling for a while and I am curious about how to use that.
Maybe that can make people curious and want to test it.

Some casinos in Macau IIRC have some games that are cashless, specially on the slots machine that they offer on land-based casinos. It's a good step towards limiting the spread of the virus and also an effort towards convenience too. Though I hope that once land-based casinos turn cashless for good, governments would not restrict online gambling platforms the licenses they really need to operate. People should still be given freedom on what platform they want to play on since it's their money that they'll be using anyway.

I admit that land-based casinos bring a lot more fun compared to online casinos, especially if you are playing with a bunch of friends. The physical casino ambiance adds a lot to the experience, one which is not present if you are just gambling in front of your laptop or desktop at home. This cashless gaming update is definitely a great addition to the gambling experience in land-based casinos.

Personally, however, I don't have a lot of time and money for it. It would be fun for sure but only occasionally. I am now limited to betting on a game or two every once in a while.

My speculation is that the casino just left with no other choice since the cashless method is encouraged during a pandemic. They are bound to follow the best thing to do to give gamblers enjoyment even during the pandemic. And cashless gaming is one of the best methods.

If there's no pandemic happened, there will be no plan for that and the usual game method is still their system up to now.

But I think they are now behind as I'm sure several casinos already implement that feature.

I don't request loans~

If there were more then this would be great news, I just hope other land-based casinos adopt such a method of payments. In fact, it's actually quite the norm for some places to use cards that has some sort of money loaded into it and just use said cards when transacting for something, but I most often than not see it in memberships instead of for regular use.

I do hope they instead actually add a way to load said wallet/card in their mobile phones, instead of lining up in a lounge type whatever system. It's an easy way, plus they can basically lessen the hassle for the casino itself. Looked it up, and found that they just load up in something called "cashier cage" and I'm just going to assume that it's a type of lounge where gamblers can load up their cards.

People have another option to use digital wallets and not paper money to convert their chips in the casino. There is a possibility for the cryptocurrency to be accepted as the payment system, but the casino needs to integrate it with blockchain technology. But I think that will need more time to wait and see the crypto used in many casinos. Perhaps, we can still play online gambling if we can't find a land-based casino that accepts cryptocurrency because we are comfortable playing gambling using crypto.

Crypto integration in casinos will surely take some time, if the volatility of cryptocurrency is still high. This is just another strategy of casinos to make the players spend more because they do not physically see their cash getting exchanged for chips, the chances of spending more than what is intended is higher when it was not cashless.

With the cashless wagering digital wallet now in place, will you be interested to go to Blue Chip Casino to experience its innovative digital payment system? Also, do you look forward to having more land-based casinos accept Bitcoin, and if they do, will you be inclined to go to these Bitcoin-accepting land-based casinos?

Yes I look forward for more of those land-based casinos that accepts bitcoin. I'll definitely go to one of those to help their business and to promote bitcoin as well. If these businesses go well, many more businesses will start to adopt bitcoin. The stigma of bitcoin is only used for illegal things will decrease because of this.

No news yet that it would accept Bitcoin or other cryptocurrencies, but having cashless gaming in a land-based casino is a big step. And the possibility of these casinos to accept Bitcoin or other tokens may not be far from now.

A cashless form of gaming or payment can be seen at some land-based casinos already.

And when it says cashless it doesn't mean it's about crypto. It's even more convenient to do online fiat transfers at these physical casinos compare to using crypto payment. In an online fiat transfer, it just needs a second to be able to receive game credits that can be used on gaming machines.

Crypto will dominate online gambling but not seeing it as a big trend when being added by land-based casinos.

^ I have already seen slot machines that use a cashless payment before but adopting cashless payment to the casinos, in general, is good news for it shows people are starting to take another step in accepting digital transactions in the future. Digital wallet by Boyd Gaming's Blue Chip somehow gives me an idea of 50% chance of bitcoin acceptance and 50% chance of killing the ideology of bitcoins for if this digital wallet will be accepted globally without bitcoins as one of the currency then it may kill the bitcoin somehow but if they do accept bitcoins then it can also be an advantage to us for people who will embrace the concept of the digital wallet then people will also embrace bitcoins.

I think this move is owed to the fact that they want to avoid contact of fiat money as much as possible because of covid. There's a chance that they will employ crypto also, if some players will ask for it from the management. If they see that there is a demand about the use of crypto, they may add that also. But this development may pave the way about the use of cryptocurrencies, let's see.

It would be a big step if Brazil will regulate the operation of casinos, meanwhile i keep dreaming.

As for the news, I don't see it as significant. If they were going to accept cryptos so that I could buy at my home, go to the casino to exchange for chips, play and then convert the won or remaining chips back to Bitcoin, then that would be a big step.

I'm looking foward for physical casinos to accept crypto but that expectation isn't a big deal for me. I mean, it's just a simple addition to their payment options and no difference from the usual adding another payment method (payment processor). It's like they just add another payment for convenience or maybe they consider adding crypto by request.

I also don't see adding crypto-payment at these physical casinos as a good feature since as always, crypto-gamblers will obviously still do to their usual gambling activity which is online gambling.

Cashless gaming intergration is not new at physical casinos even prior to pandemic. Chips or credtis can be purchase with credit or debit cards in most cases.

There might not be a reason to visit a land base casino anymore if its virtual reality but this could be going to a different direction by developing a wallet of their own which is likely their own digital chips as well. It must be part of the preparation for the digital dollar too, this is adopting the technology of the future.

Aristocrat has announced that it's launching its new cashless wagering digital wallet technology at Boyd Gaming's Blue Chip Casino Resort Spa in Michigan. With this, players can now use digital payments when playing slot machines, and they will soon be able to use their digital wallet on table games, restaurant and other amenities. Then if this succeeds, this technology will become available in other Boyd Gaming casinos across USA. More info in this article.

This is interesting, but I think that instead of creating their own digital wallet and a token (if that's what they are doing because I'm not sure from what I've read), they should have just accepted Bitcoin. I'm saying it because Bitcoin is already actively used for gambling, but also because it's reputable and secure. Who knows if their digital system is not going to fall victim to a hack? Or maybe the company will control the environment and somehow benefit from it additionally? This raises questions because I guess fiat digital payments (like paypass or something) is not what they have in mind, so if it's something new, there are potential additional risks. But maybe it's a first step in this direction of adoption, so it's potentially good news.

If they will accept BTC, its probably just to exchange it to their own token/chip.

I don't know why it is a big step for land based casinos, because We are not sure whether they are going to use cryptos or not! Slot machines are anyways cashless, they are probably just replacing the chip with a qr code enabled wallet or similar sort of things! It will be a big news only if they decide to use cryptos in land based casino!

Additionally, I have seen few land based casinos re planning to bring their own gambling website. That's a big step indeed because during pandemic, people weren't able to visit the land based casinos which severely impacted their busines. They are now preparing for the future!
