I don't want to play on the crypto casinos which apply KYC before withdraw because that will reveal my identity to them. It is just for playing gambling, and I don't think that we need to verify ourselves by sending our documents to the crypto casinos. But if that is for verifying the email address, I think we do not have to worry because we still not using our document to verify our account.
But perhaps, some people will be okay to verify their account by sending their documents, especially if they trust the crypto casino and they will not worry about anything. Crypto gambling can be play without having verification, and many crypto gambling doesn't need to fill KYC for their members, and I think that gambling site will have many members because that means, they can hide from the casino.
Topic: Crypto-Casinos and KYC - page 19. (Read 2424 times)
I started my online gambling journey on fiat online casinos, so basically KYC is not something new for me since I did it few times in the past.
Since I joined crypto casinos few years back, I was so happy since I did not need to do any KYC in order to deposit-play-withdraw.
After few years (these days), crypto casinos and any other crypto related services started to ask KYC from their users.
Of course many crypto gamblers cant accept this but they cant do nothing.
There are only 2 choices: take it or leave it.
Depends on the casinos, if it is a reputable one and has been operating for years without significant issues related to the KYC then I will still gamble.

Our data will be always at risk once we upload it in any online services, including in your local goverment's services.
I have 2 questions which I would like everyone to please answer and based on the answers can we can have a clear picture.
1- Would you gamble at a crypto-casino knowing it would ask you for KYC documents before withdrawal?
My opinion: No, because fiat casinos offer much better services, odds, and games so I would never want to do KYC at a crypto casino and if I was going to do it, I would rather play at a fiat casino like bet365. There are countless options of exchanging your Bitcoins to skrill/neteller and deposit to play. I don't think that's a problem for anyone so unless crypto casinos offer better services, I won't play there if KYC is required. On top of everything else, the main reason why crypto was made was to keep ourselves anonymous and if crypto casinos should follow the same path.

Fiat casinos offer better services like what? I have heard people complaining about bet365 confiscating their funds. And I am sure "skrill" and "neteller" (never used them so don't know much about them) has KYC requirements since they deal with fiat currency. So you have to go through KYC either way if you wish to play with your bitcoin (by converting it to fiat). And not all crypto currencies were made to keep us anonymous. Bitcoin won't keep you anonymous.1- Would you gamble at a crypto-casino knowing it would ask you for KYC documents before withdrawal?

2- Do you feel safe giving out your KYC to online crypto-casinos?
My opinion: After the documents are sent, they go through a number of people and online casinos keep changing their staff from time to time and in some case, if a staff member knows my address and in case I am a high-roller I would be in some serious trouble because the staff member can track me and even blackmail me to some extent. I am ok with giving my identity to known sites like bet365 or williamhill but I am still not comfortable verifying myself at a lesser-known crypto casino.
It will be depend on the situation in my case, i have sent my KYC once in a gambling site claiming my Event Winning and that is Year ago and yet ? i am safe and none sent me even an Email prior to that KYC sending.
or maybe the Site that i have sent is legit and professional ?
well that would be the basis for some of us to trust sites but of course More of them are stupid and really not to be trusted.

I also depend on the situation, if indeed I am lucky to get a very large profit when playing gambling. And the owner of the platform asked me to
carry out the KYC procedure to be able to withdraw the winning money I earned. I don't mind doing it, because crypto casinos do this to avoid
hackers and scammers. But if from the beginning the crypto casino enforced KYC, of course I object to that and choose not to use that crypto casino.
[1] Actually I don't like it if there are crypto casinos that require KYC for withdrawals, if there are still other options from other sites then I will try them all the time so that I can find comfort while playing for me is the most important.
And still, not all crypto sites are fun in terms of appearance, sometimes we feel bored with what we face while playing, so I inevitably have to give it if it is the obligation of others.
[2] Safe and unsafe depends on my own beliefs and for me, of course I will choose which gambling platform I think is the most, so I will give an identity to be a necessity, well I will avoid it as much as possible but this will all be mandatory in the future regarding KYC.

Crypto casinos should be without KYC! Some freedom and anonymity are simply connected with the crypto ideas. But the reality is something else, and casinos that operate under some rules and regulations are in obligation to have KYC if they want to work! It all depends on the country where they work and the rules there!
Like all others, I had to give my documents here and there to be able to gamble or withdraw... generally I don't like it, and whenever I can I will avoid doing that! Currently, I am gambling in few casinos where we don't need KYC... and probably I will continue doing that, gambling on places where nobody asks for any documents!

i wont gamble on a casino if they require a kyc but i will do the same like you .
i can make exception if the casino if fiat based because that is their number one requirements . i feel safe sending my kyc to a highly trusted casino like bet365 . they are profesional in handling kyc documents and can make sure that it wont leak easily

If a player cheated the casino by any means, then the casino should just ban the player because asking for KYC is not going to solve the case.
if the cheater handed his kyc he will be arested and that will close the case but they are not dumb to do that . if they will gave a kyc it will be fake and not their real details 
1- Would you gamble at a crypto-casino knowing it would ask you for KYC documents before withdrawal?
No, this is why its always been ideal or recommended to read up terms and conditions first before making any deposit or else you would be fucked up when they do asked out KYC when you do make out some withdrawals. As if you would have any other choice? unless if those are just small amounts and you can
afford on not to exchange your identity.
2- Do you feel safe giving out your KYC to online crypto-casinos?
Nothing is safe once you do give out your personal details or documents online no matter how trustworthy the platform is.So its up to someone if they would comply on whats been asked and to think that there are lots of viable options to take because most of crypto gambling site
doesnt really ask out those personal information.
Some gamblers are comfortable submitting and passing the KYC requirements but others prefer anonymity. Things will depend on your gambling site of choice. There are actually top gambling sites that won't ask for KYC or ask for any personal requirements from you. If you don't feel secure sending your personal details then get rid of casinos that ask for KYC.
I'm glad that we have a lot of good options when it comes to crypto gambling since most are still not requiring the gamblers to fill-up KYC. I saw some gambling site that suddenly require KYC without any announce, I know they are good gambling site but its too unprofessional to ask KYC all of a sudden. Anyway, I'm still neutral on KYC issues because I need to confirm first if its worth the risk before using a platform with KYC.

1- Would you gamble at a crypto-casino knowing it would ask you for KYC documents before withdrawal?
No, there are plenty of crypto-casino that don't require KYC as long as you are not withdrawing it directly in fiat. If that casino requires KYC and they are a new platform then think twice before submitting your info to them. Usually these websites offers some bonuses and once you won some decent amount and try to withdraw it they will ask for your personal information
2- Do you feel safe giving out your KYC to online crypto-casinos?
Who would feel safe giving out their info online. You don't know if they are planning bad something about it and you just found out you did something illegal.

1- Would you gamble at a crypto-casino knowing it would ask you for KYC documents before withdrawal?
I'd say no for the same reasons you've mentioned there's so many options to choose from and most casinos offer the same games nowadays. When you've been using crypto casinos that doesn't require KYC there's not much reason to switch unless they're offering something better which can be the case on sportsbooks. If a player cheated the casino by any means, then the casino should just ban the player because asking for KYC is not going to solve the case.
Banning the cheaters doesn't solve the issue entirely since the players can make tons of accounts2- Do you feel safe giving out your KYC to online crypto-casinos?
Nope, I remember reading a thread about a fiat sportsbook back then where most of their customer's account information got leaked. As much as possible i'd avoid KYC since casinos still have the rights to close or limit your account anytime, imagine creating an account and you get verified, then the next day they'd close your account. 
1- Would you gamble at a crypto-casino knowing it would ask you for KYC documents before withdrawal?
if the KYC is mandatory no I won't but aren't most crypto casino's KYC optional? meaning they won't ask you for your information when you withdraw unless there is a reason for it. I've played on many crypto casinos but not once I have been asked for KYC if I decided to withdraw funds from their gambling site.2- Do you feel safe giving out your KYC to online crypto-casinos?
No, even if it is bet365 or williamhill I wouldn't be comfortable giving out my information.
I will never agree in any site that will require me about KYC at any chance not unless this is for verification once i won Their jackpot 
but in the main objection KYC is our only support why we are here and staying , if those gambling site will take this from us then why we need to stay here.

1- Would you gamble at a crypto-casino knowing it would ask you for KYC documents before withdrawal?
I have written this here many times before. I would not do this. I play at crypto casinos because it usually doesn't require KYC, unlike most fiat casinos. KYC at crypto casinos are mostly applied just to cheat users out of their winnings. Most casinos are located on some Caribbean islands and are not fully legal themselves but require their users to do a KYC?
In addition, the safekeeping of a KYC's documents is not secured at all by such casinos, so that they can then suddenly be offered for sale somewhere on the darknet and your identity can be used for criminal business.
1- Would you gamble at a crypto-casino knowing it would ask you for KYC documents before withdrawal?
I do not gamble at site which asks for KYC because i don't see any valid reason for a gambling site to ask for KYC. Luckily many old trusted casino and my favorite casinos do not require any KYC requirement. Some new gambling sites ask for them and i feel no confident sending my personal documents to relatively new casinos.
1. Of course not. No way I would join an online casino that asks gamblers for KYC before withdrawing. Living in a data world makes me scared of what people might do with my KYC although I know that my information might be exploited somewhere in the darkweb and big companies like Google or Facebook. Thus, no place for KYC casino in my heart. We join an online casino with the same priorities: being able to gamble at home, being secured and being anonymous. In my country, strict rules are imposed on gambling so that anyone who is caught gambled will immediately go to jail. If my KYC is found relating to a gambling site, there will be no escape path for me. Such a hilarious that a third world country can have a good cyber police force
2. No safe at all, as mention above. Who knows what they will do with our precious information. In my country, eKYCs are being sold in the black market at a super cheap price for various purposes, even usury. My friend was once involving in a problem with the back because someone used his black loan without paying a shit. Now, he never gets a loan or even supports from the bank. His KYC is on the blacklist.

Well, no matter how secure you feel you are in a certain casino like bet365, the question still remains. Do your info safe with them? Of course the answer is still the same "No." Why? Just like what you just said, casinos are changing their staff from time to time, and so If someone attempts to do what you have in your example in the OP, then I guess you're not safe either.
However, choosing the most trusted casino is the wisest thing to do for a gambler. But fulfilling the KYC requirements is part of the risk gambling has possessed. May it be crypto or not, the risks remains the same.

As much as possible I don’t want to fill-up the KYC not because I’m hiding something but simply because I want to protect my personal details that can be use into many forms of fraud even if you’re dealing with the best crypto gambling site. Cryptocurrency should give you the chance to stay anonymous, but since those gambling site are following the government regulations, they can’t help but to implement KYC, some gamblers left with no choice.
