A few years ago when the pandemic is not yet coming to our economy or when the virus is not yet starting because physical gambling is the hype in which live poker, live tables are the ones who are in the mainstream but due to that pandemic is happening into us. Online gambling becomes more popular than live gambling and it is because of the pandemic in which people are limited to go outside and to lessen the mass gathering that will be brought by live gamblings.

In my country it is exactly the same, physical casinos were always popular. It was the pandemic that closed these casinos for half year. So the regulars who like gambling had to transition into the online world. Especially older people never tried online gambling before but really like it now, because they gamble from home from their couch while watching TV. It is really hard to imagine how the life after the pandemic will look like. Who knows if all the gamblers will go back to their favourite casinos and quit online gambling again.

I think it's not only Covid 19 that is driving online gambling to become more and more popular...

Online gambling is increasingly popular because it really makes it easier for us, we can do anything and be anywhere while gambling only with a smartphone or laptop. online gambling will continue to grow.

I disagree.

COVID-19 is the one who boost it up, because people have no choice but to stay at home to obey health protocols and to make sure they are safe from the virus, that is why they adapted online gambling, for example is Online Sabong here in our country where they would conduct s live cock fighting and people will put bet on whichever cock they like. Mode of payment is via GCASH (an online wallet) if I'm not mistaken.

Poker was the first form of online gambling and got a lot of attention 10 years ago just to eventually not be so important anymore. People tend to prefer live tournaments, the biggest money was always on the physical tables. But due to the pandemic this changed again last year.
I am always glad to see a hype in online gambling because it means that there will be more money coming in for the casinos. And if the casinos make more money they can give more money back to the gamblers through promotions. I probably got in the last 6-12 months more free bets and free games than I got over the last 3 years. I hope that this trend will continue next year so we can all profit from it.

This is probably going to continue for some time, the vaccination around the world is going incredibly slowly and despite the efforts of people and governments and the predictions given the truth is that most likely many people are going to need to spend this year in a lockdown as well and avoid going out as much as possible, which means that many people are going to try to find a way to entertain themselves and online gambling is going to be there to help them out with this.

We cannot blame anyone why vaccination is so slow since the demand is so high and manufacturers cannot produce more since many countries are really in need of this, but I believe we will see a mass vaccination once the 1st world countries will be done vaccinating their citizens since for now they are the one who's capable to do this since they have money and power.

Your far going off topic guys, this is gambling discussions but you are talking about vaccination .

Please find place to talk about this and not in the thread about gambling alone.

If you think that people who are choosing online gambling just to make money since they have no money due to lockdown then its wrong!

Most people knows that gambling has risks and millions of people have it as habit like how people used to visit their social media, so those people need to do it some way that is why there is a spike in the lockdown time since they used online to satisfy their urge.

We never know what their reason is to gamble because I am sure they will not tell the truth. Maybe they will say that they want to feel like playing online gambling or maybe they really want to try to make money from online gambling. They can say anything they want because they decide by themselves without telling us.

Online gambling could be a new thing for offline gamblers because that will be a different experience for them while they can not go to the offline casino. Maybe they will moves to online gambling, especially if they only stay at home.

Some people who are gambling online have the habit of hiding their gambling activity to anyone because they don't feel safer if they share their winning or losing history or afraid of family member will react opposite to them. But who are gambling offline already known for their gambling habit and the reason for gambling it can be anything like money or just for the entertainment purposes.

They feel that if their family knows about their gambling activity, they cannot play gambling freely because their family will disturb their time in gambling. But that can make them addicted sooner or later as no one knows what they did in their room. If they become addicted to gambling and it is hard to tell other people about their addiction, that can become a nightmare to that person because they will not have a chance to solve the addiction to gambling.

Online gambling is increasingly popular because it really makes it easier for us, we can do anything and be anywhere while gambling only with a smartphone or laptop. online gambling will continue to grow.

And that's with the use of cryptocurrencies. No need for any credit or debit card to be attached and linked to an account into a casino where you're going to gamble.
That's truly an ease and you can try almost all of the crypto casinos that you can. I think there will be more of them to come since the crypto market has dropped a lot, it means that there will be more coins that will be taken upon buying that can be used to gamble.

This is the main reason why many gamblers are now playing online, though we all know that if Casinos are open again, gamblers will slowly go back to normal and play on casinos since we know the excitement we have on playing in casinos are literally different compare if you just play online, and in my place where gamblers are not that techy, they tend to play more on casinos to enjoy the machined games at their own hands.

No doubt online gamblinng's gonna boom especially in dire situations like these. People will find a way to socialize, earn money, entertain themselves, or all three of them combined. At least much of this is available for access in online gambling sites, which of course is further improved by the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic which literally barred people from interacting with each other beyond the internet.

For countries whose gambling status is illegal, I think online gambling is quite popular there to avoid restriction from government regulations. There are quite a number of development on online gambling sites now and it was very much supported during covid19.

People couldn't go out and they were locked up for that long and I think some of them got bored and tried to gamble for fun. So far, the development of crypto gambling site has also increased, but not many have decentralized without KYC. I like the idea of crypto gambling without requiring the customer to complete KYC upon withdrawal, but most of them do.

^ But I think Covid19 contributes a lot to all online businesses and I think that is the reason also that cryptocurrencies increase too much the price lately.
There is no doubt the stat will increase because most people have stayed at home or most are having quarantine and there is nothing they can do to break boredom to watch videos, gambling, or everything online that they can enjoy. Definitely right, the easy accessibility makes become more popular online gambling businesses, and even until today, everything is almost online.

Accesibility is one of the most common reason on why online gambling is having a progress or recognition due into this factor and you are right that not covid-19 is the reason even if this one
didnt happen we can still see the development since we are already on an high-tech era where someone could engage on gambling in the comfort of their own home
but still there are people whom do still consider nor prefer on playing into physical places or casinos which it isnt surprising.
There are different markets on different individuals whom do prefer on playing into these places.

Boredom is one of the triggers so many people enter online gambling when it came first this pandemic and lockdown.
Playing online gambling can be done from home, without going to any casino or sports area. Or even it can be one of the ways to spend more time at home because of boredom being lockdown.
However, even the lockdown has ended, many people are still staying here at online gambling.
Why? because this is like a habit where they have been similar playing online gambling during the times and until now it is still.

Moreover, it is actually fun playing gambling online without spending more money to come into casinos

Later, this will become a habit even though the pandemic is over, I see that there is a lot of interest because if you have played 1-2 times then in the future it will be addictive, especially online gambling makes it easier for us just by sitting pretty we can make the shadow wider because gambling is delusion higher.

It is not surprising that in this pandemic boredom, many people will become addicted to their cellphones including online games, online gambling is primarily based online, but indeed what is most worried about is addiction in each of them because this will cost and spend more money for this addiction, including gambling, which has a lot of interest.

Online gambling is gaining more and more popularity with regular increase in the userbase. This can be understood just by counting the number of cryptocurrency accepted gambling sites that have come into usage over the last year. The number is big compared to the other years and our forum itself an proof for the same.

This has been happening as a result of people unable to move out of their homes due to the pandemic. This time has been a lucky one for few winning big and majority might've experienced massive losses suffering more during this period.

maybe currently only a small proportion of casinos do accept crypto payments and it can be said that all existing casinos certainly accept fiat currency payments, I think it will be difficult for the government to prevent the spread of online gambling nowadays, because we all know the government applies taxes that are There is a high level of advertising and online gambling sites, but in my opinion prevention can be imposed if there is a special authority that oversees the spread of online gambling, as was done by the Belgian government recently by tightening the rules for online betting by implementing a deposit limit of € 500 a week, as well as Spain, which imposes a limit on gambling ads that can only be shown for a period of four hours, between 1 and 5 a.m, or even the Latvian government which has officially banned online gambling until the pandemic is over or social boundaries are lifted.

This trend will only continue as people get further used to WFH and just a more digital lifestyle in general following the pandemic. Like it or not, crypto-based casinos are here to stay and are going to generate a significant portion of the usage case for BTC.

Indeed and a lot of people in our community were introduced to bitcoins and then eventually crypto because of these casinos. I still remember when I first joined PD there were new users coming in the chat that time and they used to tell that they wanted a gambling site that doesn't ask for ID proofs and process their withdrawal immediately plus the provably fair game was the cherry on top. Now with sports betting also coming strong with crypto, I agree that crypto casinos/sportsbooks are going to stay here for a long time.

Quote from: magneto on May 18, 2021, 07:19:48 PM

We should also see a healthy shift from traditional online casinos like Bet365 to more crypto based ones over the next few years. People are starting to realise how cumbersome the deposit processes are.

Indeed the traditional methods of deposit and withdrawals are slow and painful while also comes with a fee with each transaction you make. The only problem with crypto casinos is that we still lack a lot of features as compared to some of the rival fiat casinos and even sportsbooks.

Don't just count online casinos that accept only crypto, we should count more online casinos that accept cash, this is when they put out a lot of online advertising every day, the number of people attracted to participate is very high when online services are getting quite a lot of attention during the pandemic. The number of people will continue to increase much when the government is not strictly regulating, it is difficult to count the number of people who are bankrupt and addicted to gambling after the government returns to control

Given the pandemic situation that we are currently in, people are thinking and are using alternative ways to adapt from the sudden changes the crisis has caused. The majority are already aware that due to pandemic, safety protocols are already imposed. Limited operations from businesses and leisure activities were mandated by the government. Hence, people opted to do things online.

Online gambling became popular because people have no other choice, but to follow safety measures to secure their health. Leisure errands are prohibited, resulting to increase rate of number of people finding entertainment by gambling online. It was no surprise to find this because especially now that we are confined in the four corners of our home, boredom usually strikes.

I just suggest to still gamble moderately. Bet what you can afford to lose. It's not bad to indulge and enjoy what we want for our mental health's sake, but be a responsible adult and set limitation for yourself.
