I'm in this number, cause I gamble every single day. And I was talking year ago that bitcoin gambling can just expand more with the time. This news is not a surprise for me, and this is not the top, bitcoin gambling will attract even more people in future you will see, and this 3 btc per second will be 10 btc per second in just few years.

I gamble every weekend but sometimes I dont gamble with bitcoin and I just go to the casino since its boring to stay at home gambling. I think it's clear that the future of gambling will happen in bitcoin. We are talking about trillions of transactions in gambling per day once we get lightning network support.

Become addicting

It is not that Bitcoin/cryptocurrency powered gambling is more addicting that 'normal' online casinos.
Using bitcoin as your payment method is only matter of preference and convenience rather than statement of your beliefs.
We all have to agree that standard regulated fiat powered gambling services are simply hard to use.

Bitcoin will be the future of gambling and we are seeing it's future already, the figured stated by the OP is a serious figured and that would simply mean that there are many gamblers who started to adopt the bitcoin gambling system. It's a progress that we should be happy about and that happen because they see bitcoin is a perfect match for their gambling needs, with that it will bring a competitive market and we can see more casinos to exist in the future to come.

That's definitely good news, it's really an industry that has given us much innovation in gambling as opposed to traditional casinos.
The whole provably fair system is something that only Bitcoin and altcoin casinos can offer and that might be another factor in drawing in more people.

Precisely and if they continue this way we will be able to get more people into the cryptocurrency world through gambling online casinos and betting websites.

Definitely, if they way continue than after some years, bitcoin make for the gamblers and also for casino's owners to earn money from it and it will be a big business for every users who use the bitcoin.
If we see in the past, when bitcoin was not introduced in the online gambling world, than we see the result only few people play online gambling and they face the difficulties to pay the amount. But when bitcoin came, it make the way of payment system easy and it build the trust of online gambling sites. So February is a proof that bitcoin will be more popular on online gambling in future.

Gambling is playing the big role in bitcoin industry where there are lots of gambling websites People might think that bitcoin is just for gambling only lmao

I don't think the live statistics from the bitcoinstrip is correct though it's just an average for all casino's profit. I checked luckyb.it stats for example and they have a total btc wagered of 997 but profited 0 something's wrong there because afaik they have house edge.

i think its only estimate for what casino can get in monthly because i don't think that every casino will give their profit info to other site and maybe the casino is only give some number that related with their profit. and if they give some info like btc wagered, maybe its true and they can give this statistic to other site, but the real number is always with them since they will keep for private and no one will know how much exactly they get from gambling business.

Well I really think that bitcoin play's a big role in gambling,
Specially that bitcoin secures the identity of the users,
And in some bitcoin gambling sites it only needs at least 1 confirmation for your deposit to reflect on your account.

Good to know about the fast progress of bitcoin gambling sites, this does not benefit the gambling industry but the whole bitcoin market, imagine how big the demand they are creating knowing most of gamblers loses their hard earn money. This statistics shows how trustworthy gambling sites are and I have this prediction that in the near future, competition will be bigger and more investors will see this as an opportunity for them to operate as well.

Since bitcoin is really an easy modes of moving money it has really been adopted by a lot of gambling sites. Even known big casinos and sports books have been adopting this as well. Another thing is that it is easy to obtain and deposit into casinos no information required from the gambler which is viewed as a pros of using this method of gambling.

Very interesting. Hopefully U.S. state gaming commissions take notice and realize bitcoin is indeed the future of gambling - whether they like it or not - and be forced to adapt or lose out. Prolly won't happen though until the far distant future.

On a related note... March Madness anyone? The NCAA College Basketball Tournament has just started and runs through the rest of March. The NCAA tournament now ranks second to only the Super Bowl (played in Feb. btw) in terms of betting and seems to be gaining ground in recent years.

Thanks will follow this site to see and compare from this month where the ATH for bitcoin was achieved and next month's stats and if the price of bitcoin influences the gamblers using bitcoin with these increases in price.

Well thanks for mentioning this site for their statistics. But I guess we'll more high bets for the next months. Depending on a site's popularity but as long as it is gambling we will expect this. Maybe it can come up to 5 bitcoin / minute or even higher.

People on those holidays will have more money to gamble and more money to convert to bitcoin. So, I guess there will be another month to break this record.

Though this statistics is a good thing for the bitcoin gambling society.

That is also what I suppose to say and it is another good contributor to the bitcoins price. The more bitcoins generated every minute by those casino's from it's gamblers, the higher demand that it is making in bitcoin gambling industry. They will always play a big role in the market of bitcoin and it is one of the important reasons why many are getting into bitcoin.

Yes but we don't want a million Bitcoin gambling websites as they are becoming too many. I don't even know the legitimate ones. How many Bitcoin gambling websites should we allow to operate because the scanners are getting involved in that line of business. I think people should improvise other uses of Bitcoin and stop this one-way trend.

There are a lot of trusted casino or gambling sites and as a gambler, you must be really careful where you deposit your bitcoin. This is important if you are really a gambler. And I know that gambling addiction is a wrong thing, though it really depends on the gambler.
Even I preach or teach him to avoid gambling if he really wants it, cant help it right? nust gonna moderate his activities.

Actually their statistics also can't be accurate because they haven't calculated stats from many other well known bitcoin casino including fortunejack. However we can predict that not only 3BTC per minute, may be more than 10BTC is wagered per minute.

Nothing to get surprised. It's one among the major industry causing an increase in circulation of the bitcoin. As well several gambling websites have been progressing with several added features. Now as the price increased in February it might have attracted few more to use bitcoin for their gambling needs. Gambling gains more attraction because several countries have ban on it, but bitcoin gives the way.

That's what should amaze people because this is not at a global scale because of that fact of countries banning it outright.
They do know how addictive it can be and more deadly because people can do it all from the comfort of their own homes. And with that makes it that much easier to make a gambling addict.

That is good to see that people are actually spending their coins on something instead of just trying to hold it until the price goes up so they could receive a large payout. Making money is fine if you have it though there is people within the world that work each day -they still don't keep any money for themselves and they usually don't have any fun spending it.
0.05 BTC every minute isn't that bad, I am pretty impressed actually.

Problem there are the casinos that deal with bitcoin start to scam it's players just like what one person is claiming is happening to them with cloudbet right now on bets placed on the live dealer roulette wheel. They are shifting the blame so neither of their sites are liable to payout the player his winnings.
How deceptive is this action of a casino to do let alone it being completely a bitcoin casino.
Very bad mark on them if they don't pay them out what they have won. Only thing the player needs to do is have some kind of proof whether it be video or even screens of the incident in process while it happened or else the casino can just write them off as lying. Which is quite bad for their reputation in the first place I would imagine calling their own customers and players to their own sites liars. Sad

True, we have no genuine way of knowing whether these statistics are accurate.

But if they are, that's great. Gambling is a huge industry, and I think this shows gamblers' increasing association with attempts to be anonymous. It's great that, since in many countries gambling is illegal, people can be much safer gambling online with casinos they trust using a convenient currency and I think that online Bitcoin casinos are going to make their way closer to the mainstream for gamblers.

It's a great record, and I never imagine that a gambling site will make this much profit, and I also have doubt that this statistics is only for one site or all sites. But anyhow this article will tempt rich people to create their own online gambling casino site. In future, the number of online sites will increase day by day.

That is dangerous because you know about 95% of those players are losers.
And the casino's are the only winners of your value bitcoins. Embarrassed

HaHa. Good point they will eventually lost all their money in the casino with those precious bitcoin. The house always rule. Anyway, I don't know why February was a record month. Maybe a lot of gamblers now are shifting to bitcoin as mode of currency to play and don't want to use their visa or mastercard to deposit money. Gambling industry really benefits a lot from bitcoin ecosystem. Probably online gaming site are really profiting big time right now because of bitcoin.

"A total sum of 117,971 bitcoin has been staked throughout all of February which is surprisingly a high number. This averaged almost 3 BTC per minute. It is also one of the highest strength of Bitcoin, as the average bet scope was just 0.00013911 BTC."

Yeah this is really huge, I hope they got the statistics correct. I was quite surprise as well.

This is a shocker, damn, 3 BTC every minute? Bitcoin really is being known because of these gambling activities. And as said in the article, bitcoin will be really more welcome to casinos because of this. But I am becoming curious, why February?
Are these gamblers want to give luxury to their girl friends and family?
