^ As for casino owners and financial institutions, they are also bound by strict regulations to report suspicious activities and cooperate with authorities in combating money laundering. Failing to do so can lead to severe consequences for these establishments.
However, it is also true that some individuals or organizations probably try to evade detection, making it challenging for authorities to catch every offender, and the government agencies prioritize some targets over others due to resource constraints, it does not necessarily imply that they condone illegal behavior. The focus on certain sectors like casinos and exchanges may be due to their susceptibility to being used as conduits for money laundering.

Truly the government is always on the track of account holders and you know they know themselves but one thing I believe is that the government knows all the money launderers in their various countries, they know those who indulge in nefarious act and would not go after them but are ready to trouble these organisations such as casinos, exchanges etc just to get revenue from them all in the name of keeping track of account holders. Even the casino owners knows this too. They know accounts of money launderers and others but sometimes they just disguise themselves and pretend not to know as to get their pockets.

That's why casinos have started enforcing KYC on their members who are seen spending big money or looking suspicious so that the casinos can immediately find out what's happening. Casinos also don't want to get involved in any problems that could disrupt their business because casino owners want to run their businesses long-term. At the same time, the government is trying to cooperate with all businesses to track down money launderers so they can reduce the amount of money laundering and clean up illegal businesses. With the development of the gambling industry at this time, the government is trying to be more serious in dealing with illegal businesses by providing supervision to all business owners and their businesses.

But along with the development of crypto and the exchange business and other businesses, the government is suspicious of money laundering activities using crypto so the government is trying to find out who are the people who use crypto in exchange, gambling and other businesses. The government doesn't want to lose a moment. It can be used to track down people who do illegal business because it could potentially lose huge profits for the country.

Exchange or gambling businesses seem to know already the account characteristics of someone involved in illegal activity so the owners of these businesses may have started to suspect the movements of the perpetrators of the illegal activity. Business owners will immediately ask them to do KYC to find out the background of the account owner. And if they are suspected of having anything to do with illegal activity, they can immediately report the results to the government.

This task OP is about taking up is not a small one. As you have said, OP would be up and doing in furnishing the public with blogs and articles that are current and worth reading. It should be updated with development in the casino industry at large. To be relevant, the website would need to compete with other websites to be amongst the most viewed, visited and engaging website so as to remain amongst the top. The journey is never that smooth but with courage and commitment, I think OP could scale through.

Crypto was initially design to be an anonymous platform with ones privacy intact but now the reverse is the case. Actually, it was the crypto exchanges that were held responsible by buy the government to enact the KYC policies which was followed and it has been a regular norm with the crypto exchanges now that every one member must undergo a KYC before they transact. Even at then, there are limits for verified and unverified account holders on Crypto exchanges based on your level of KYC accessment with the exchange with limits members to some certain amount of withdrawal.

With these measures, withdrawals are always tracked easily but the more the government of press, the more new means are implored by people to escape the KYC measures and as you have said, I would not doubt the fact that black market would be their alternative means or source of transportation.


Of a truth since the inception of crypto, the gambling industry has seen unprecedented growth and expansion with recorded sustainable successes from casinos and individuals who has benefited hugely from the industry and as such, it became apparent that the casinos are becoming more advanced and technology inclined with huge revenue generation and in circulation. Hence the government interference in the activities of the casinos and mandated them to carry out KYC as that is the next step or possibly another conduit for scammers and money launderers to look into.

Nevertheless, casino owners and management are fully aware of the gimmicks of scammers, cheaters and manipulators so they would also want to be on the safe side too by conducting a KYC on their clients so that they know who they are dealing with and also i believe casinos communicate amongst themselves hence they share details of such people  so that they do not run at loss at anytime and if such people register with them, they would keep a close watch on them and this has made me begin to have the thought that most of the complaints against casino here must be as a result of this actions and that casinos know who they are that is why most casinos do not reply because if they do a whole lots would be unveiled that is why sometimes they chose to remain silent over some complaints.

For crypto, the government has the authority to ask every crypto exchange to implement KYC so that no money laundering activities occur there, but for casinos or the gambling industry, KYC is actually carried out not only to suppress money laundering but also to suppress gamblers who commit acts of fraud or deception.
Everything is a business and none of the business owners is willing that what is being built has to be destroyed because there are irresponsible persons such as criminals who launder money to remove traces or even those who like to cheat.

Nowadays the gambling industry is growing very rapidly and there is more and more money circulating in it, that's why some people want to take advantage of it for their personal benefit.

Based on this you want online casinos to advertise on your site which is a non Cryptocurrency platform you have to convince them that you can do better than Bitcointalk and casino reviews sites because these two platforms have proven their platform to generate lead and conversion, you can start by being an affiliate, casino affiliate programs are rewarding, if you have VIP referrals but to ask them to by an advertising package on your site which is not a casino based platform you need to have convincing power and show results, casinos will not spend money if they are not getting results.

That's right. In the past, what was supervised was exchanges where many exchanges had members who were the whales so exchanges were asked to perform KYC on their members. And now, the government is starting to pay attention to crypto casinos and asking casinos also to perform KYC on their members. Crypto users will not be able to use their crypto freely, especially if they want to deal with businesses that have something to do with the government. Meanwhile, the government wants to try to eradicate money laundering and other illegal activities. It seems that it is not easy because money launderers may use other unconventional methods and I think they also often use the black market to make transactions.

The government from the unset do a regular checkmate of activities so as to o keep trail of financial flows to and fro a system. Doing this helps them keep track of illegal activities in possibly money laundering and others which is not in line with the law. They had to extend it to Crypto and casino because it is perceived that these are another conduit crimes are being committed hence they demanded for all casinos within their jurisdiction to conduct KYC for all their members and also charged  with the responsibility of reporting and complying with the government agencies whenever there is need to. So for the talk of casino being KYC free is Impossible and as time goes on, virtually all casinos would be on the list of KYC casino and non would be exempted.

Yes, just a type of advertisement, as sinple as it sound. But with regards to convertion rate, I doubt typical websites would be higher. Indeed there'll be larger audience but this is where familiarity would take place. More people would be able to see a project which is being advertised in a typical website in comparison to this forum BUT ideal targets are in this forum which would have higher tendency to hook up investors. Quite of a matter of quality over quantity 'coz what could be the impression to non-crypto investors if they happen to come across a non-familiar investment or project? Scam. There is a higher tendency for a conversion rate for people who knows what is that 'something' in front of them.

And same thing I guess with gambling ads in this forum. If it is gambling then yes an advertisement on a typical site would be catchy. But question is, would they engage given that mode of payment is different from what they are used to? (assuming this instance on a typical website ads for crypto gambling project).

Lead generation is what the forum signature campaign knows how to do well. Before now, I had thought that the signature campaign is only targeted for users in the forum only. Little did I know that this forum indexing in google is so high. There are some certain  key words that directs people to this forum. E.G Bitcoin gambling, cryptocurrency gambling etc. Those keywords leads people direct to the gambling section of this forum.

I understand that campaign managers play big role in the promotion of any project. But in the context you described it, it doesn’t fit so well. For instance, if a quality poster makes an engaging post that brings someone to the forum, once the person is here, he/she will see other signatures even the one of competitors.

The signature campaign is both for lead generation and in my own words branding through visibility, here in Bitcoin signature campaign projects are branding themselves through visibility and reputation, people have a recall on products and services when they keep seeing them, so when they think of soft drink they easily recall Coke and when they think of shoes they think of Adidas and Nike because they have recall because of their visibility.

The success of the signature campaign here depends so much on the bounty manager because he is the one selecting participants who can generate good conversations on topics that will interest visitors from search engines and on this forum.

That alternative path is only good if it converts, everything we all know about advertising and marketing whether it is traditional or alternative depends on interaction and conversion, advertisers pay for leads and conversion.


The question is will it generate interest, the main reason why Facebook advertising is successful is because the platform targeted users' interests based on the advertiser preferences, one example is I like Boxing so on a sports website where I am a subscriber if they show advertising like cooking do you think I will be interested to look at those cooking banners knowing I am a worse cook of course I will just ignore it, but if they displayed an article about up and coming fight between two undefeated champions 100% I'll click on it.


The question is have you tried it, the bottom line is conversion happens when users' interests and platforms meet, you mentioned that you've tried Adsense and Affiliate programs what's with these two types of advertising that you think is lacking in terms of leads and conversion?

I read all of your replies and ugh, damn it, I did. You want to make something different from the advertising media that you have often seen. It's a good idea because it will intrigue the people who see it and surely they will find out more about crypto (if the ad is related to crypto). Your idea is going well because it introduces crypto and information about crypto knowledge being carried out by sources and people, making people even more interested in following it. So far, people have been learning about crypto based on programs such as Ponzi, HYIP, Cloud Mining, Fast Trading, and Investment Programs.

If you can implement your idea into an advertising medium, it will make people curious. So that a dialogue will occur between them and the source (if the advertisement refers to an online meeting). They can interact with sources or experts in their fields to learn more about crypto from the right sources.

And for KYC, it looks like this could become more stringent in the future, especially for the gambling business, because the government wants to limit the movement of the perpetrators of illegal activities in utilizing crypto. For this reason, casinos have started implementing KYC for all of their members, especially those who use big money to do KYC. After doing KYC, the casino will know who is behind the gambling account using big money. If the casino reports it to the government, the government can also see that the person is not related to any illegal activities.

Your site are basically a platform for "Free Speech" ..so I reckon the traditional advertisers might clash with some of the views and opinions that are discussed there, so you are looking for advertisers that are more open-minded... right?

Well, the Crypto currency world are full of open-minded people and also people with Libertarian goals. So your site will fit like a glove for many of these companies that share these goals.

Crypto Casinos are not 100% behind the "Freedom" goals, some just converted from the old Brick-n-mortar model to chase new revenue sources. 

QueenVera and Blitzboy:

That´s indeed how I see it.

True, the general public tends to view cryptocurrencies as the proverbial "bad guy," and thats a mindset we should try to change.

It sounds like you're recommending that websites like commonsensetv.nl be used to spread information about cryptocurrencies and the freedom it represents. I can see the value in your suggestion; its outside the norm and it could end up being successful. There is, however, a major "but" that must be taken into account.

While cryptocurrencies do remove certain regulatory barriers to entry, they also arent foolproof. Therefore, advocating for it as the sole route to independence may be deceptive. Therefore, it is essential to emphasize both the advantages and disadvantages.

 I find this very interesting but I think the creation of this thread  alone is enough so as not to attract suspicions that's could lead to a ban on your account, I think you did a great job by creating awareness on how to educate people about crypto and how to go about it, because constant information would help enlighten them to understand about crypto and desist from the wrong ideas they have about it, there are some gamblers that's are yet to know that there are crypto casino and that crypto can be used in gambling on different platforms apart from their various fiat currencies.
 Also the creation of banners and posters would help those that reside in rural area, especially areas that are not yet exposed to modern technologies. I belive this movement would create an awareness that something of such exist and might also motivate them to want to learn about it and discover the benefits of partaking in cryptocurrency investments.

it would take time and resources to keep afloat about the business you want to venture with. i understand, the OP is trying to get insights from the community. but if you don't have the luxury to wait for your potential clients in order to sustain your business, better look for another business idea that will truly give you potential profits at a short period of time. in this industry, reputation is very important to move forward, so it means, it will be years in the making. if you do really want to pursue this market, you should have other means of income that can back up your current endeavours.
