I don't know how many exactly the gambling sites that have been hacked. As far as i know there many gambling sites are been hacked by those hackers and i think that is the same people who hacked every sites. There are so many hackers nowadays not only gambling sites are being hacked also atm accounts.
Yes specially dice sites, because they have a common pattern on how they run and if someone can find a hole in the script they can destroy almost all the sites.

But there are chances that the site was never hacked and the owner pretended to get hacked to run off with your money. The best way to avoid this is that you gamble only on those gambling sites whose office address and the gambling license and all the documents are transparent and listed online.

Not many of them which is actually surprising, of course allot of 1-2 days old websites using that free and full of exploit script get hacked, but other than that the big websites rarely report hacks, either because they can afford to cover it or because they have good security preventing hacks completely.

I like to delve into bitcoin history a lot. as we all know there've been a ton of crypto exchanges that have been hacked, but i'm really struggling to think of any gambling sites that have been hacked. maybe I haven't been paying enough attention.

does anyone know how many there've been? they seem like obvious targets to me with masses of coins flowing through them.

what are they doing differently compared to exchanges? i'll guess plenty of exchanges are inside jobs. does this mean gambling site operators are incentivized to be more honest in general too?
i believe people always want to get some bitcoin with simple way,gambling,investing or also hacking,but in my opinion,its only several gambling site that have been hacked,some of they only pretend being hacked,but truly they want to close their site and being scam,this is simple way for earn a lot of bitcoins.

Even if they get hacked how are you going to be able to compile all the list ? There are rumors of hack but I doubt if their target is a gambling website because it's not resourced like other financial institutions.

The thing is, gambling sites attract a lot of money so obviously, it will always be a favorite target for greedy hackers. And i'm sure a lot of gambling sites have already been hacked before and will still be hacked in the future. Where there's money to be stolen, expect these hard working hackers to have their noses on it.

The news came regarding this topic, but I did not find any information about this hacking. This is possible the hackers can hack any website. And yes the gambling sites are the first target for hackers because this is huge money one night they can become milliners. And now all sites are accepting only cryptocurrencies this is one advantage for hackers to hack gambling sites. They can easily exchange cryptocurrencies.
Gambling sites can really be hacked but as of now it wont really be easy for them since most gambling site do store their funds on cold wallet which they do only put up small amounts of money on their bankroll. They do tighten their security since people or gambler would definitely see first gambling sites security before tending to play. If they saw a site have been hacked recently then trust of people will surely be decreased.

The only one that I could think of that was "hacked" was Dicebitco.in, Of course, This hack was pretty much doubted by everyone considering the style the website went down with. Other than that, no website went offline because of a hack in the recent months that I could remember (a big one, at least), PD was cheated for thousands of coins, but through a betting exploit not through hacking and emptying of wallets.

Hackers usually hack for financial gain, but have also done so for political or purely malicious reasons.  Personally,  I haven't heard yet about hacking in gambling ,but if there's, this is frequently done with the aid of software, which embeds into a victim’s server and records all keystrokes that occur, allowing its user to gain access to password-protected areas of the victim’s site.

I am.in the bitcoin world from 3 years but still I have not yet heard that any Gambling site got hack . And also I didn't hear wether any gambling site steal bitcoin of any user by without spamming the user .
Here few of the sites got hacked of exchange ( special meaning is of ETH theft ) but still  didn't hacked any casino .
And second thing that I know Gambling sites have big security of Thier bitcoin so I don't think any benefit to hack any gambling site .

I agree, bitcoins casinos are rarely hacked and there is no point because most of them don't have a significant amount of funds in their hot wallets. Most of the bitcoins they have are in cold storages and mostlikely it is not even linked to the servers. So there is really little point in hacking it.

I don't know how many exactly the gambling sites that have been hacked. As far as i know there many gambling sites are been hacked by those hackers and i think that is the same people who hacked every sites. There are so many hackers nowadays not only gambling sites are being hacked also atm accounts.
Hackers are everywhere not only on this online world there are lots of thieves and bad people will do anything just for the sake of money.I cant remember on how many already gambling sites are being hacked since theres no statistics or list showing previous hacked sites that's why we should really be keen on putting up our money on gambling sites,

I have never heard any casino sites being hacked, if attacked by user with ddos, yes there are several sites being attacked and cause the site to stop working, but if being hack then the money being stolen i think it hasnt ever happen yet, or maybe the sites has a great way to cover it, because losing money because of hacker is going to destroy the site reputation
the same for me, i heard several exchanges but never a gambling websites, they just sometimes run away with people money
there were a lot of gambling games that "got hacked" to be honest though they just turned to a scam and thats it they stole peoples money

I don't know but until right now i never heard about that even there I think that are just the way for run with the money.

It is indeed very true that now there is no news that says there is no gambling sites that are compromised. But I think that it's because they provide excellent security for any gambling sites owned, hopefully it can be done properly in order not to do hacking

Exchanges take much more security measures, yet they are hacked more often than gambling sites. Why? Because gambling sites store most of their bankroll on cold wallets, so it's just impossible to steal from them. Also, gambling sites are much simpler than exchanges, so there is less room for exploits.

Yup, till today I am also not heard this type of news. Hacking casino sites are not easy, and they will provide very high profile security to open their account. So yes suppose some casino owners may take all players money and run, but hacking and looting house money is not possible.

Yup it's one of the easiest ways for owners of exchange to stealing customer money I do not think gambling sites have a higher level of security
I think all use the same security system oddly exchange sites are always experiencing theft of funds. maybe there should be an institution that oversees the exchange's website is certainly not government institutions.

Well just so you know, gambling sites are one of the websites that has the highest security especially those who are already in the business for a long time.

And they are more investing to security because that is the one that is going to make them bankrupt if they are not going to invest with it.

They are just being hacked when an hacker studied their website for a long time and sees some flaws to their system and security.
