Yes, in fact, with CS:GO before skin gambling was banned by Valve. It happened more often than people thought it did, and there are plenty of them that have won or lost lots of money. I knew kids who were only around 14 years old who had made nearly 5000 dollars from 25$ by going all in on green on a roulette twice, and ones who had lost more than a thousand. It's a serious problem and I'm glad Valve have partially solved the problem, but there are still loopholes that those sites are using such as 'tokens'.

I think it's important to look at the leaking of gambling into modern youth culture, and the fact that many games include a form of gambling. Online gambling has really led lots of younger audiences to an easier access, which is a huge problem.

That is where parents must enter, their presence and their intervention are the only thing that could stop children from gambling, parents should inspect each game the kid is playing, if there are parts of it that looks like a gambling, or the game itself looks like roulette or images like that, parents should stop their child from playing it.

But anyway, we can't see who are in the gambling site, same as the admins of those gambling site, they can't see the face of the players, so it is difficult to see if a minor is playing in their site or not.

When we small we always want to do things we are told not to and try to be a grownup so it is natural to gamble if they young and have the opportunity. I dont think its a good that ngs since children should be learning how to function for adulthood. Could you imagine of children all grew up gambling what sort of adults they would become ? Its up to the parents to know where there child is and what they doing although that is not so easy with very naughty children. Eh my pinch of salt yea ?
Yeah because of this, it would be pretty difficult to prevent all children from gambling, they just like to try things that they are not allowed to do.
Maybe even more so with Bitcoin gambling, since there is even less verification.

I also believe that gambling is not for young people, and these games for them should be banned. But that's just how to make limited access to gambling. How to make How to prevent children from playing.

Why do you say so? On every age doesnt matter though only if you can manage how to not lose so much of your money and not become addict. I dont think that everyone cant control their greediness though so there is nothing to be afraid of to let children playing and they still cant earn some money to play much though so by letting them try it doesnt really matter to me

Anyone which can access internet can playing on gambling,there's no restriction about age to access internet.
At the present time anyone which capable to use smartphone can access internet and gambling site
That indicates how much dangerously the younger generations are living right now.
The kids must be allowed to access internet under inspection/guidelines from parents. Because they do not know what are dangerous to their life. We have seen many kids are keep on playing videogames, so they are highly vulnerable to get addicted with gambling.

In my opinion gambling should be allowed for the adults with the age group above 21 only.
That must be the most needed suggestion. But laws of many country is considering people as adults  from the age of 18. That is the reason, many teenaged people are getting access to gambling and other dangerous things like smoking/drinking.
But government law or parent guidelines are meaningless if a kid ignores all of them as they are having easy access to gambling in this modern digital world.

Well there are many gamblers who start gambling under the age of 18, I have one friend who starts gambling when he is in school like he is 16 years at that time. So now kids are more intelligent and modern than us, they are master of computers, games etc. It is not as much shocking that under 18 boys do gambling.

gamble bitcoin is anonymous
so your never is verified your age no problem you can still play without verified your age
It is not as anonymous as you might think. If this was the case then why we have so many online wallet's accounts suspended?
Services like Xapo or Coinbase somehow can determine if you are using your coins to power your gambling activities.
but it doesn't mean age restricted ridght? afaik coinbase clearly did not allow their wallet used for gambling activities directly that's why they suspend a lot of account that violating their T&C .

gambling using bitcoin have no limitation on age , everybody can do it even a monkey.
Correct, age restrictions cannot be applied on gambling sites, in order to do that the site owners have to ask for valid government id proof. (which i think will probably never happen)
Lol monkeys are smart they'll never gamble heh.
actually there is an id verification process called KYC , a lot of fiat casino/sportsbook applying this to verifying identity of their customers and as far as i know in bitcoin gambling sites jetwin have this KYC .

it is not guaranteed to prevent people under age to gamble but atleast it is minimized.

Yes, there are a lot of gambling sites for CS:GO skins, and those skins are very easily traded for real money. So a lot of kids gambled on those sites and some of them probably used real money to buy skins for gambling, probably money of their parents. This is one of the main reasons why kids should never be allowed to gamble, they don't have income so they are most likely taking money from their parents or even doing something bad to get them. Also children might be more vulnurable to gambling addiction.

I think so, there are young gamblers now who even bet bigger than a person who aged 18 above, young gamblers are very aggressive as they have the freedom to gamble using bitcoin anytime they wanted to do it.
People who are aged 18 above also has the freedom to gamble their bitcoin anytime they want to. It's pretty easy to do especially if you're not a responsible adult. The only difference between 18 below and the people 18 above is the fact that the latter has to work to get money to gamble and has tons of things to consider before they waste their money on gambling. Also, 18 below people usually just asks their parents for money and gamble.


Thats so bad really if they just beg the money for their parents and spend it on gambling, and gambling had no age limit as long as they have hands and money to gamble they will do it really, and i've seen many teen/minors are doing and making some gambling plays with their fellow people and mostly i see them playing card games in their neighboorhood,

In online gambling may be there is no age limit but in real casino sure they have this kind of restriction because may be they dont want kids that losing said that it is scam or anything like that. May be that is why there is some restriction on real casino that kids below 18 cant enter their casino. May be kids still play unofficial gambling thst they make they own rules
Especially in bitcoin gambling site, anyone can play gambling just need email and bitcoin wallet address so i think the kids can play gambling too if they are know about bitcoin and bitcoin gambling site.

Yeah, register an account on bitcoin gambling sites it's really easy and people who under 18 years old can easily register and i think there are many people out there who also gamble under age.
you are right to be honest it is impossible to ban young people from gambling because of that, and there are a lot of under aged people gambling

Absolutely there are lots of underage gamble already,for they have the knowledge already and even more influenced in today's new trend of gambling.Mostly those under age the most tricky and have better strategies in the way they gamble, and eventually they have the more creative thinking.

Very precisely, but I worried against them. Because surely they do gambling of capital allowance given parents and certainly if they get the defeat will use money that did not belong to him. because gambling is very risk and should be able to control themselves in order not to get a malice

I want to know if anyone here gambles or have gambled under the age of 18, I feel like there are many kids who do this and I am interested to see how many people actually gamble under 18, if you have any friends that gamble or have gambled under 18 include them.


EDIT: I mean mostly kids online, its hard to be a kid and gamble physically. I feel like the gambling rate for kids is increasing a lot and is gonna be a problem in the future, especially with the CS:GO situation.

EDIT2: Another question to ask, is what is your opinion on the topic of kids gambling, do you think it is a growing problem or a problem alone for that matter?
Yes There are Many Youngsters Who Gamble With Fake Profiles on Online Casinos......
Even Bitcoin Is also A Reason That Children Under 18 are Gambling Now a Days and It Is Not Good For any Children......
