Topic: MetaMask Crypto Casinos - page 2. (Read 785 times)

What do you mean by strange system? Are you referring to the casino the OP had mentioned? If it is, well, that wasn't strange. You are not new in here in cryptos, so you should be familiar with those already. Even if you are not a gambler, for sure you already tried using a decentralized exchange. Their mechanics are almost the same. I mean in a way that we will need to connect our web3 capable wallet first before we can start using the platform or the services that they are offering.

You might be referring to the standard centralized casinos. Yes, most of them has a KYC but the decentralized casinos or the ones OP had, don't have a KYC. Except maybe to some Web3-based casinos, as I think I already saw a few who still have a KYC on them.

OP does not know what he is talking about. The sites he rated on his site are not web3 at all, you can not connect your wallet, not to talk of using it to deposit on the site. The sites mentioned as we have talked about it before in this same thread are centralized casinos and bookies. You can only send your coins to those casinos and bookies.

Have you ever looked at any of the casinos listed and how the Metamask integration works there? I don't think so, because it has nothing to do with the "decentralization" you write about. At some of the casinos listed there, you can simply connect your Metamask to the casino to deposit coins relatively easily. But you can't just play there with your wallet, you need the transfer to the casino account.

It seems decentralization. It is very easy to use such sites and the funds are under your own control, due to which the funding risk is very low. But there is another problem here. If you have money in your account, you can lose it through gambling because it is very difficult to control yourself and adhere to a limit in gambling. And since we gamble for fun, centralized platforms are not a problem for us. We can gamble by depositing there. But centralized platforms require kyc which is a problem in this case the metamusk quality casinos you mentioned would be better. So according to everyone's requirement whoever has the choice can use that type of site. But all centralized casinos are enough for me so far

They're dealing with labels like they're a web3 casino or sort of layer such applications that seems to be hype recently. But just like you, I also find it complicated and I usually avoid those casinos that are wanting me to connect with a metamask wallet or any other extension wallets that they're supporting. I know that we've got differences and preferences when its come to this but I just don't find it ease for me. I dunno but just as you've said, many will be fine with the kyc on a casino that we trust than going with a metamask connect wallet login.

There are few of them on this section and they're like the web 3 casinos that seems to have a lot of customers before. But, right now, I don't know if they still have a lot of customers because no matter what happens with them. In the end, the customers will go back to the usual casino and gambling experience that they've found with the typical casinos that requires registration and logging in with information that we used to sign up.

OP, you can't be so concerned about the metamask acceptance on online casinos without the safety part, what are you doing? There are scam casinos on your list and it doesn't matter if they accept metamask only, you have some cleanup to do on that website.

As a matter of fact, there is no casino that's branded as a metamask casino, if any platform or casino is accepting metamask connection it will work with other web 3 wallets too, either by WalletConnect or Direct.

If a online casino is not available on this forum you need to be careful, you have a load of traffic on that website, and with scams available in those casinos it's not safe, you will eventually lose credibility when one or more people fall victim to scam through your website, they ain't coming back and they might drop some bad reviews too.

       -   I think that such metamask apps to be used in a casino seem complicated in my opinion. It seems to be different that you just sign up, deposit, and we can immediately play gambling, even if we say that there is KYC most of the time in the casinos I'm talking about.

Although I haven't tried it yet, I rarely see a casino where, by connecting the wallet, you can play gambling. Apart from metamask, are there any other options to connect to crypto gambling here?

The casino listed on your site are not the decentralized ones and most of them are centralized and require a KYC in order to play or withdraw. I do not understand how you classify them as "Meta Mask" Casino.

By the way, I just checked the traffic on your site and you get over a 100,000 views in a month, which is something interesting. Wouldn't it be good if you could write about the detailed reviews and playing experience at each of the casinos? Though it will take some work to do so, but can further boost your site and stand it ahead of other crypto casino's review sites.

It wont be effective cause the system needs an update.
And then connecting your wallets to metamask will be trouble shooting,cause we all know  your KYC information is needed to aid effective withdrawal and deposits but when its not.thats a big issue.

In fact, the problem is with the user himself not with the technology. The web3 technology is supposed to be safe as long as you know what you are doing.
For example when you connect your wallet to a web3 website and it asks you to grant them permission to perform an action, how many of us read the message before signing it (giving them your authorization)?
However and despite all the advantages of this technology, am not a real fan of it.

The headline is totally misleading...there are no MetaMask casinos, there are casinos that allow us to play if we connect MetaMask wallet, or some other wallet, at the moment there are many of them! But Ethereum fees can be so high, so I am more for BNB chain wallet or Tron (but I don't use Tron as I used to).

Logging in with wallets can make things a lot easier, deposits & withdrawals are instant. I played in several casinos with a browser wallet and had no problems, no one ever asked me for KYC. I started with TronLink, MetaMask was interesting before ETH fees started to rage and I moved to Binance wallet... Now many casinos offer different options for logging in and maybe most importantly we can choose different chains for depositing & withdrawing, which can save us some money!

I have way more trust trust issues connecting to web3 casinos with my metamask to various sites then sending small amounts to web2 casinos i don't yet trust.
Also i see issues like typosquatting if people aren't careful where they connect to. For example finding the site via fake google ads or something like that, leading to duplicate fake site. This wouldn't even be that bad with centralized casinos as they might notice new ips trying to use your passwords and fagging them. With web3 hacking they would immediately get full access to your personal wallet.

As far as I know, in most cases, it only needs 1 confirmation to access and connect to the site and every action from there like placing a bet doesn't require any further or new confirmations. If let's say that is not the case, we all know already that Metamask supports several token networks based on ETH and it should be obvious that we won't use a coin that has insane fees that are not worth gambling with.

Not a technical person here but someone can correct me if my statement is wrong. \

That is one of the biggest downsides of decentralized gambling, indeed, there is little or no support of the most important asset of this industry: Bitcoin. Even though some people may argue WrappedBitcoin is good enough, it is a token which is rather stigmatized in the Bitcoin community of being pretty much decentralized (controlled by an issuer), realistically storing value using auch token is not safe in the long term, for obvious reasons, one of them being the possibly of the eventual shutdown of the issuer.
I personally believe than using Ethereum and other alternative currencies to gamble in a decentralized way should be good enough for the time being, even if the network becomes too congested there will be alternative main nets/ and block chains which supply the demand for decentralization. As it stands for now, it would not seem to be much demand, though, in comparison the old and reliable system of centralized casinos which allow to deposit Bitcoin.

It is quite ironic some casinos nowadays need to decide either go with the wave of decentralized gambling or accepting Bitcoin, due to those two concept remain to be incompatible.

In my case, I prefer to use the way most casinos have done it, which consists of creating an account using email, password, username and after creating an account at the casino, make a deposit using the deposit option and the address will come out to which I should send the coins, then I copy the address and go to my wallet and paste the address and send the coins to that address. I think this method is safer and less of a headache than using a very risky method like this MetaMask. This MetaMask method exposes people to the risk of losing funds in my opinion. I don't know how many people are using this MetaMask method and how long they have been using it without having any problems. It would be very interesting if in this thread we had testimonials from many people who are using this method

and these many people would tell us what their experience has been like using this MetaMask in the casino and how long they have been using the MetaMask in the casinos. With this we would have an idea of how this could be advantageous or not. Searching on Google I found few articles that talked about the advantages and disadvantages of MetaMask in crypto casinos. according to this article:


source: https://timestabloid.com/metamask-casinos-pros-cons-review-rating/

Just reading this article gives me an idea that many casinos will not use this MetaMask

Well, I do not think you completely understand the op and what he is talking about, it's not about casinos allowing the use of metamask as their only means of login and access to the casinos, op is talking about centralized casinos like the ones you possibly know, that allow users to connect their metamask to their platform as an easier and faster means of gambling, deposit and withdrawal, over the normal traditional way which is to enter your email and password, possibly get a 2fa mail or code, then enter the code before you are logged in, and in times of withdrawal, you have to enter the wallet address you want to withdraw to, pass several means of verification like email and 2fa verification, before you can withdraw, using metamask cuts out all this processes use you can easily deposit and withdraw out from or into the same wallet that is connected to the casino easily without having to fill in email and 2fa codes.

But then, even though this seems like we likable feature, it's very risky, not just to a gamblers privacy, but also risky to gambler money, since the casino may have access to even funds in the wallet, and if such casino turns scam or is hacked, they hackers or the casinos may steal funds from connected wallet.

Metamask supports a wide range of blockchains, not only those you mentioned, in fact any EVM-compatible chain can be integrated into Metamask.

The biggest disadvantage for me, however, would be that there is no direct support for non-EVM-compatible blockchains such as Bitcoin (apart from all the wrapped bitcoins, of course). Bitcoin is still very popular in the online cryptocasino sector and is still my first choice for depositing coins on a platform. 

What makes me wonder ehy a casino would only target user base of Metamask wallet. It can be a good idea if the gambling circle only use tokens or blockchain that support the wallet. Which according to my understanding is either Ethereum or Binance smart chain. While majority of gambling enthusiasts prefer Bitcon, Dogecoin, Tron and Ethereum using Metamask only would elude them from being interested in a particular casino that encourages the use of a particular wallet. I feel if you want to create a non KYC casino you should focus on wallets like Trust wallet apart from Metamask.

As far as I know, there are no true web3 casinos because there is always a centralized point of control somewhere. So I do not gamble on "decentralized" casinos. Therefore I do not connect my wallet to anything like that. The reason why is because it is very dangerous to trust many of these gambling services that pop up. Most of the time, they use the term decentralized for marketing reasons. You know, to make themselves look better than they really are. Don't get me wrong, I am a huge fan of decentralization, when its real and not just a advertising slogan.

I don't need a casino with a strange system and other.

I already like with current system, the most important thing on casinos is (easy to withdraw and deposit). That's all another a good point, people love to play with a casino who have less strict on (KYC) topic.
