I agree on some points that gambling sites must practise ethical and responsible attitudes, but I think the FAQ and the Terms of Services already have a law against underage gambling so if people choose to ignore that,,, what can casinos do? Asking everybody to KYC for account creation is EXPENSIVE and even exchanges who are rich do not do this.

I don't think gambling is a sport. About the KYC most of the gamblers online are afraid to share their personal details and some of them are prefer to play anonymous it's true that you it's easier to play online even if you're not at the right age but there's always a question on the website when you open it or when you register on it asking if you are 18+ or 21+ the gambling sites cannot do anything about that unless KYC is really required under their license.

I think guiding your child would be the solution they can't access or play on the casino sites if the parents are guiding them well.

Each gambling sites have their TOS for ages 21 below to avoid them from any sue as many country prohibits childrens to gamble, but some children were to stubborn and still play. While Casinos is still a business and priorities volume of players that's why as much as possible no KYC required because if they will provide KYC and other casinos not, tendency the players will just choose the easy and safest way to make them unknown in playing.
Issuing of KYC can only be fair if all casinos will follow so players will have no choice, but that's seems impossible to happen due to many reasons. For now,only parental guidance is solution with casinos and children's below 21.
What makes these children to show more interest in gambling is that some them are soccer fans and lover and got interest in predicting matches of their favorite clubs thus engages in soccer betting, In my country gambling sites are not so much regulated, they don't request for KYC except that the government only taxed them thus allowing any age category to bet, once a kid has the ability to browse a phone they get registered in online betting sites thus having freedom to bet, except parents take absolute control over those kids wayward lives and discourage them from those betting activities there is nothing the government can do about it.

it's really up to a gambler, he is the one who is going to treat gambling regardless of what he likes to.
For me it could be my sport as I like sports betting and I don't usually play physical games myself but I love watching physical games, particularly boxing and basketball.

About the KYC most of the gamblers online are afraid to share their personal details and some of them are prefer to play anonymous it's true that you it's easier to play online even if you're not at the right age but there's always a question on the website when you open it or when you register on it asking if you are 18+ or 21+ the gambling sites cannot do anything about that unless KYC is really required under their license.
They have a reason to be afraid, trusting your information in a gambling site is not normal in crypto casinos, so people would choose what is normal and what give them convenience, and people are gambling in crypto due to anonymous gambling, at least that's the major reason I know.


I think guiding your child would be the solution they can't access or play on the casino sites if the parents are guiding them well.


Indeed, no more, no less.

Talking about children who are free to play online, for me this is not a big deal, they have parents who will guide them, and it is the responsibility of their educating parents.
And it is possible for a site to ask for kyc verification data, if they really intend to play, it's not a big problem for them to send kyc with fake data.
This matter should need to be discussed. Kyc can be mandatory in a gambling site and with that in my view I’m opposed submitting my personal identification in an online just to gamble. The best thing for this is the parents should be the one must guide their kids not to be involved in gambling as this may result in addiction. During these times we have noticed some other kids are exposed to online gambling and it is necessary that parents are really strict about this kind of matter.

The rate at which kids are getting involved with technology and stuffs that are way above their levels is alarming. For adults, it might be easy to control the addiction or greed to keep playing but for kids, Its a little more difficult. However, I don't think enforcing KYC on gambling websites is the way to go. That would just be doing more harm than good as privacy is our most valuable asset in the internet. The viable solution right now is just to raise more awareness for parents to restrict their children from certain online activities including gambling.

   I made my first sports bet around that age! That was almost 30 years ago, back then you could buy alcoholic drinks and cigars
without any problems, and I don't think there's something wrong with me. Back then there was a lot more freedom for all of us.

You turned out just fine but there are other kids when exposed to gambling, they can easily get addicted and can go as far as stealing just to fill their gambling hunger. By law, no one under 18 should be allowed to gamble.

KYC can be an option for a gambling website because we don't know how old people visit on the gambling site.
If we are afraid if kids will access the gambling site by free, then the parents must take care of their children while kids use the internet, even on their mobile phones.
The kids will not know about KYC or share their information with the website, but they can use their parent's information to access the website.
Without protection from the parents, the kids will easily browse the internet, and they will not be easy to visit on the gambling website, but they will easily visit the porn website.
Privacy and regulation will be needed, but the role of parents will be necessary for their kids. The parents need to have responsibility for their kids to guide their kids while they browse the internet.
There are lots of ways and kids on todays generation are really that knowledgeable or able to adapt too fast into tech where they can really find out ways and they are smart enough on how thing works even on
a very young age.I agree that this one goes or does matter with parenting.We cant really blame of gambling sites into this and even how hard they do try to impose regulation and laws there would be still
kids that can able to play and also they would be thinking on how badly it will affect their revenue since people do really hate KYC specially into this market.In solution to this then it will really be
on parents hands on how they do handle out their kids.
I see that too because I have a nephew at a young age who can understand something faster than his aunt or uncle.
When they are online, we need to watch and beside them, and if they want to ask about something, we can tell them, and the good thing is we can prevent them from clicking a strange advertisement link that will appear in front of them.
The gambling site will not know who the visitor, and the site will think that the visitor is an adult people who want to enjoy the games.
The KYC itself will not protect the kids from the rules because they can use their parent's identities.

   Now there are too many regulations, but I don't think they do the thing. Parents are the ones who should be responsible and
they should take care of their kids, and there will be kids who will start gambling earlier, kids that grow up faster than other kids.

While I kinda agree that kids shouldn't be tolerated and need to pass kyc for restrictions, but things can not be controlled right now. What I mean is, even offline gambling apps and sites doesn't even need some kyc to access and to play with. They are easily access because theh are not centralized enough to do that.

We also know that it has been an old issue about that KYC, age restrictions are disregarded in reality because most of the casinos are not even requiring IDs to check whether their new player is a minor or not. But if in the future, they will gonna implement such kyc to prevent kids from gambling, I will definitely support this idea. It's for the sake of their mindset and probably their future.

Even they will required KYC it will also reduce the players who want to use their gambling casino website ,Due to the fact that many of us do not want to give any of our credentials  to unknown website casino, even they told us that its secured to its hand.

We need to accept that it is different now and we cannot watch all young people because gambling now a days can be play online, its the parents responsibility To watch their child  to avoid gambling and addiction .

It's understandable that gambling is the source of some peoples surviving,getting income, hobbies .And without gambling chanced of surviving will be very difficult to them,while matured people enjoyed gambling based on finance or income attach to it,but some gamble because of money which make present kids today to be interested in gambling.
This time kids are very smart to adopt things that surrounds their environments, but is not legal to some extent for a children to adventure into gambling,because from my observation gambling will make them to involves into criminality.
I directly advice to restrict children in some gambling site's because gambling is meant for adults.

I don't support KYC especially on gambling sites, they provide the best experience for us gamblers to enjoy, if we allow KYC just to prevent kids from gambling but would result to sacrificing all our private information, I think that is not good and people will not gamble on crypto casinos as there's no difference on fiat casinos. There's no perfect rule, but all the time it's the interest of the business will be a priority.

Is KYC really needed? My only question to you as well as that offline casino where that minor girl was caught gambling -
Were they blind enough to be unable to spot that she could be an underage? How would a 12 year-old girl look? If they can't even spot this thing in front of them, don't you think that today's kids are advanced enough to make a fake ID proof and/or just change their DOB in it in order to gamble anywhere? What difference will KYC make? I have seen many online services which provide fake KYC material for us for just $50 (and some for even less), what change will come after implementing this? Instead of implementing KYC, I believe that strict parental control should be there in order to stop their kids go the gambling way. In online casinos, it'll be much more easier for the kids to enjoy the freedom as they can easily fake out the ID (but here, they'll give someone else's ID like one of their elder ones) and can gamble behind the scenes hiding their real identity.

Actually I don't like the KYC to be mandatory due to the reason that minors could possibly reach that since for me this mandatory implementation is not really necessary if this is thing will really be needed in future. The parents itself have obligations on their childs so maybe we are the one oblige to do some certain actions if we see our child doing some nasty plays online.

And also providing KYC online is dangerous and I don't want to give my personal identity to the scammers out there.

Despite how many regulations the government will make, this would not eliminate the chances that kids could gamble in online casinos particularly the crypto casinos as it's design to cater anonymous gambling. The laws are not necessary anymore, what's necessary is that the parents will be able to guide their kids to prevent from accessing gambling sites, so if these kids could still gamble, they can't blame the government and the casino, but their parents.

1) If KYC along with other information is needed to make sure Minors cannot access the gambling sites , I do think we should support it , until and unless the company agrees to take care of the privacy and data of their customers that I know they happily will.

I don't have a problem with KYC but a parent should be responsible enough to monitor or limit/block websites(which is possible) they deemed inappropriate for their child. I would not support a KYC just to check my age. these things can be prevented if their parents are responsible enough for their child and I would not trust a company to safely keep my information. there have been cases where important information about their customers/clients have been stolen by the hackers or the company discreetly selling the information of their customers. giving up important information just so I can gamble is not worth it.

ps: the thread would be more appropriate in gambling discussion
