Topic: Minimum Age to gamble - page 10. (Read 3939 times)

One of the reasons on why crypto casino gambling did really get that much attention or traction is just because of that anonymous engagement on which someone could really be able to play without even being known when it comes into their identity but since they are really that centralized or licensed then they are really that abiding with some laws which needs to be followed for them to be able to operate. Back in the days on which they dont really impose out KYC no matter what but now on the time that you do hit up a particular threshold then this is the time that they would really be asking one. Some wont really be seeing this as an issue?
Not at all because there are people or individuals who does really care about their personal identity. Speaking about site legitimacy then it wont really be talking only about Stake but rather there is really a specific list into that knowing that there are other platforms which do offer on the same thing and that what makes crypto people or gambler do really love them despite of these notable changes when it comes to identity verification.
Its true that these are things which are really that being abused and being used as an alibi for those scammy and shady behavior that they are tending to do but of course these are just only into platforms which are
non reputable.

I think that we should not get carried away by these KYC things, because those are the excuses that the casinos and the different entities come up with to control, they also say that the KYC is the best for when there is no problem, that it is easier to determine and recover if there is a hack, I say that this is simple excuses, first if children who are 12-14 years old, if they enter a casino that has or requires a KYC, it is the total responsibility of their parents who have to be supervising them, It is not a problem of the casino, nor because the casino does not have KYC, that is only the worst thing they can tell us, there are many stories that they invent, also if a hack occurs, if they have a KYC they will steal the data plus the money of the players, it is a lie that they are going to return your money, unless it is a casino like stake.com that has a great capacity to respond to any problem like this, otherwise, to look for the money and resonmder would be done through the ID of the player and that's it, plus if something like this happens it is the responsibility of ciasno to respond for all the money of the players where something is stolen from them, so you don't have to get carried away by what they say, that's like the myths, with those things it's that the dominance of the big guys begins, KYC will never be good, privacy, anonymity, everything ends.

In another aspect, it could be said that those who are Pro KYC will always say things like this, there is nothing else they can do, in this order of ideas we can think that some things like these are what they always say so that people comply obligatorily and They tell you that in some way they are protected and no, it is not like that, what I recommend is that if you have a favorite casino, then they must comply with the KYC requirement so that you can play calmly and make a good withdrawal, I am not of those who leave KYC in each casino, I am one of those who leave KYC in the casinos that I consider are worth doing and that can always be fulfilled so that they do the best.

Yes, you are right, even parents nowadays choose the shortcut of giving smartphones to their children when the parents want to work or something busy so that the child doesn't cry, but that's a mistake for parents who from an early age have been given sophisticated cellphones that they can use anything to surf. anything, even gambling, they can access it because in this digital era, young people or minors have intelligent minds in terms of technology, so efforts to limit these minors will only be in vain because they know how to get out of these restrictions and I cannot deny that as a parent, it is a difficult task to always ensure that all your activities are free from gambling or gambling advertisements.

In almost all countries, citizens are issued an ID card at age 18. using which he can do kyc verification anywhereIn this case he can do KYC verification on a gambling site using that ID card  So in general the minimum age for gambling should be 18. But today's youth are not willing to accept this. Gambling has now made a huge impact among the youth as online casinos are very attractive and easily accessible. and so it cannot be prevented

Somewhere 21 and somewhere 18 years old is considered as an adult for gambling. Each casino has specific rules that no minors are allowed. But not everyone follows this rule accordingly. Some people consider the rules but they don't follow the rules. Such rules are not strictly observed in many platforms, especially in online crypto casinos. For this reason a minor gambler can easily handle gambling. The Gambling Authority provides gambling opportunities to underage gamblers by prioritizing their business.

Of course there are rules to be followed specially age in gambling, here it's 21, so under that age, you can't go inside a land base casinos. And even gamblers who are above 21 years of age, most of the time the security will have to ask for a ID.

However, in the cases that you mentioned, perhaps the bookies know  the rule but from them it's business and so they allowed underage to make a bet on their bookies. But it's a risk for them though, but they are willing so hopefully someone will have to report them as allowing this kids to bet on them.

Perhaps social media has features for underage users and restrictions they can set. But I don't think they will use it because their curiosity makes them leave all the features disabled. This will allow them to explore everything on the platform without restrictions, especially when using their devices. They are not supervised by their parents, so that they can browse the internet freely. But if parents can understand that their child's device needs to enable all the necessary features to limit unnecessary things, their children may not seek it out unless they feel that the restrictions are useless.

Only supervision from parents can help prevent their children from doing bad things. Parents should at least take an active role in supervising their children when they use their respective devices. Parents should be able to provide understanding to their children about what they can and cannot do while still supervising their children.

This is quite sad to think that there are minors who engage in gambling, especially on online casino since other platforms do not have an age verification checks. I think this also depends on the country or place, because in my country you have to be at least 21 years old in order for you to be allowed to gamble. There are actually penalties and sanctions if an establishment fails to impose age restrictions. However, strict age verification is quite hard to enforce on online casinos since there is an absence of direct interaction with the person.

Regarding on the betting ads, I believe that the government should impose that advertisements about gambling should only be allowed on appropriate places, and it's not ethical to put betting ads on school and places where there are a lot of students and minors. We understand that this is about business, but this matter should be regulated as it can affect the welfare of minors, especially the students.

Man , age is certain a problem among bettors. I think the regular age should be 18 but I saw kids under 18 entering bookies and placing bets and no one gave them out from the location and I find this actually sad. There should be rules for underage betting and controls should be made within the agencies in order to prevent minors to bet. Per example in Romania , we have a lot of problems because of betting companies as their adds are everywhere ...near schools , high school , etc...so basically no matter where you go , you see a gambling ad.

This problem with the admission of minors to gambling cannot be solved using only a ban and KYC from the casino side.  The fact is that many minors simply ask their older friends, who are already adults, to register and play from the account of this friend.  This is common everywhere. 
In the case of a minor, I bellieve that the most effective way to prevent him from gambling in a casino is only through careful supervision on the part of his parents and, in general, all older family members.  At the same time, parents must understand that in no case should such games be allowed so that the child becomes addicted to the game and potentially becomes a gambling addict.  It is clear that none of his loved ones need this.  But many parents consider it unnecessary to try to keep track of what sites your child is visiting, and sometimes they are simply too lazy to look.  And this is of course a mistake.  Of course, there should be control over the child.

Such as procedures for managing finances and also doing business in a fun way or you can also provide guidance on choosing investments or trades that can be instilled in every young person and enable them to develop in the future and become a high-quality next generation.
But most people don't want to do something like that because teaching other people especially young people is not an easy matter because they tend to prefer entertainment or pleasure rather than doing things that are useful for the future.

But when we see that there are so many young people nowadays they become aware of gambling activities and try to play without careful consideration before deciding to play.
No one can forbid them from carrying out these actions but it would be good for us to always be able to direct them towards more positive things and not waste money in their youth.

Casinos usually give warnings when they just register. This is related to the gaming requirements at the casino, there may also be information regarding KYC or minimum age for their players. Not only in crypto casinos but I also see it in online casinos with fiat.
It's just that nowadays accessing online casinos is very easy. especially for smartphone application-based games such as slots which can be accessed by anyone, including minors.
You don't even need a bank account to make a deposit, you only need a virtual wallet account that you can use to play.
Maybe in countries that do monitor and legalize gambling, the age of players is really taken into account. but for casino sites that may be illegal, they give freedom to their players. all he thinks about is profit, nothing else.

Whenever a user signs up to a casino they have to agree to abide by their local regulations. If someone violates their rules then they are not responsible for that user's losses and they also have the right to confiscate their earnings. A legal case would not be likely to succeed because the user would be at fault for ignoring the terms they agreed to when they registered.

KYC can be trivially bypassed in many situations where a business does not have direct in-person interaction with their customers and that is why it is a flawed policy for online casinos but there are other sophisticated methods they can adopt to prevent fraudulent activity.

Until now, there were still people gambling online under the age of majority, especially in casinos that did not require KYC. And I also think that even today, in online casinos, there are many people who do not pass KYC and minor children who can play. I knew someone like that in senior high. In high school, this young person often played casino games online. He was still a student, less than 15 years old, but his parents didn't have any idea what he was doing with gambling.

So I agree with the casinos to implement a minimum age before playing gambling, although I also know that there are still people who can get away with playing online gambling without being of age.

I remember when I was 19 years old, I bought lottery tickets for the first time with my friends. I remember that you had very high hopes for winning, it seemed to us that it was quite possible. And of course, in the end, none of us won anything. Nevertheless, simple cheap lottery tickets really excited us. It's good that at that time I didn't know how to play in a casino, because my perception of gambling was very bright. Now it seems to me that 19 is the age of an adult, but in fact then we were very naive. Therefore, I believe that it is right to allow gambling from the age of 21.

Kids who are not yet earning their own money, shouldn't have a right to spend it the way they want it. When parents give money to their kids, its always intended for something like lunch money and not for gambling. Thats what they should understand at such young age. Spending it besides his lunch is like a violation.

Anyway, we can't dictate what other kids will do though but the norms back then is very different today especially with the woke ones.

Might as well discourage them first and give them another options that are much useful to them like something that will help them in figuring out their passion that could lead them to an additional income, you know helpful things that involves a bright tomorrow because we know that they are still relatively young to know and think about gambling.

I have seen many casino platforms where there is no age limit. Again, I saw on some platforms that it is given whether the age is 18+. All these things are not complicated in the casino platform. I have seen a lot of underage kids who are between 12 and 15 years old gambling on casino platforms. So I see that online casinos do not follow any age.

Although some casino platforms do not allow children under the age of 18+ to play at the casino, if there is a KYC system, children can steal other people's information and complete KYC. So how can you ban minors from casino platforms? You cannot catch how they are gambling on the casino platform.

Most casinosides contain no kyc system. You can gamble by having an account there. If you want to take legal action against all these casino sites then you will suffer a lot. Because you will definitely need a lot of money to file a legal action in which case you will have to provide a lot of money. At some point it will appear that you have lost the case against this casino platform. So the casino platform will continue to run at its own pace and all persons including adults and minors will participate in betting. For this we cannot take any action against the casino platform.

That's correct actually and it's really important for parents to always monitor their kids to prevent them from developing addictions or getting involved in suspicious activities that aren't suitable for their young age. Keeping kids under control is essential as it will benefit them in exploring the world of gambling when they are older and understand what they should and should not do.

Gambling should be kept away from children but the point can be considered completely moot if the children have access to the internet. That is core nature of the problem, really. And we cannot control the internet, we cannot impose real regulation upon it. So what is left to do? As long as they have access to the world wide web, there is no way to effectively stop them from learning about and trying things such as gambling. And there are a lot of worse websites that they have access to.

And we cannot put the blame on parents, because the world is digital. Having a smartphone is the bare minimum of living in this modern world. So there is a limit to what parents can and cannot do.

We need to concentrate on solving this issue.
