The problem is that by using digital ID there are chances of identity theft. Since the IDs will be stored online it might become vulnerable to hackers.
They must have high security on their site if not the outcomes might be disastrous.
Further more, using digital ID the government will be easily tracing the users for how much they gamble.
So that is kind of a privacy issue and the governments can very well take advantage of it.
The only useful thing that I find using digital ID is that it will restrict children under 18 from gambling.
May be if the government put a certain restriction on people from over gambling then may be that can help.
I think that governments are taking advantage of entering people's privacy using the most vulnerable possible excuses of "protection", I respect everything that has to do with security, but I know that trusting governments or banks is suicide, they they want to have total control over people, make sure that no one has their privacy, see and track all the operations that have to do with money, how many people move money and why they move those amounts, I think that will be a trap to apply all the acid in the future, of course as I said before, these are my thoughts.
Yes ofcourse, the governments are already doing that by implementing mandatory KYC for bank accounts.
So in a way, they are already tracking us and what we do with our money.
Cryptocurrency is the only way to get out of this trap yet people are not willing to adopt cryptocurrencies.
People are getting used to the comfort of fiat currencies giving away their control over their money instead of owning their money by having an initial struggle to control it.
Yes, that's why I think that one way to escape all control is with privacy coins, I really have a very clear criteria about crypto, firstly BTC, then my taste is with ETH and Monero, this is simple, ETH it is considered the second best coin and Monero is for the privacy and anonymity it can offer.
If casinos started to offer games with this currency, allowing deposits and withdrawals through it and with records that are somewhat less rigorous in terms of KYC, I think it could become a leading platform, because for now there is a lot of talk about adoption, but when it happens, which is already a fact, the problem of being anonymous and seeking more privacy will begin.
