Right , this could be why it is best to avoid this matter here rather than having some problem in the future since no one will know hows the future might shift and Henry has mentioned in the OP that he cant afford the license yet .That is why this precautions are being taken
Bitcoin is legal right now. And a gambling site not within the jurisdiction of US, is not illegal.
If it was a matter of taking precaution, then a person using bitcoin should stop using it, as in future it may become illegal in the States. The risks of continuing to run the casinos online through bitcoin in another country and almost negligible.
Bitcoin is not legal in some parts of the country. This matter is not on our call. Its on Henry, He feels like doesnt want to have a life where he doesnt feel safe and we should of course respect his decision with that. Nevertheless, anything to do with casino/gambling sites is dangerous especially if it is unlicensed.
