To get a certificate to prove if you're a responsible gambler, obviously there's should a test to gamble. Do you think an addict can't learn and act like a responsible gambler? when many people already know the loophole, it's useless to get a certificate.

You can't stop an addict to gamble, let alone an addict want to gamble even though it will ruin his life and probably his family too. There's always a way an addict to keep gamble even though you've try to limit or restrict his activity.

[....]The reason why the government will implement this, as a precaution, is to protect people from losing their wealth and their health from too much gambling because of addiction, it's a way of protection.
An agency would be tasked to grant a person a certificate to gamble because they don't want that same person to lose too much money from betting? This sounds counterintuitive don't you think? They can just stop issuing those papers if they are really concern about people's well-being but that would also mean potentially losing source of Government funds.

Will there come a time when online casinos will implement that you upload a responsible gambler certificate before you continue to play because of too many government restrictions it's not necessary for newly registered gamblers but for gamblers who lose a lot of money and their activity is they are suspected to be addicted to gambling.

Hmmm it's nearly impossible mate, take for an example most of the gambling site now are implementing KYC but most of the players doesn't want it how much more if they will force to provide that certificate, it will be against the purpose of crypto if it will be needed to upload or attached it. The purpose of the idea is good but it is hard to implement and many people will disagree.

Any country that will enact this certificate policy will lose a lot of revenue and investment opportunities. Gambling firms will avoid the country because they will not have many customers.

This certificate will require KYC and many people are always scared by these policies.

Getting a certificate might also attract some costs that would be paid by gamblers. People might have to undergo some expensive tests to check if they are addicts or not.

It can also be time-consuming and cumbersome to acquire.

This policy can also give rise to an increase in illegal and unregistered gambling because people that want to invade these restrictions will patronize more risky gambling firms.

My opinion is that it is practically impossible to happen in free countries.
...

I will dare to say that it's even theoretically impossible for this to happen, in free countries or not. A certificate about gambling responsibility sounds ridiculous in my opinion, doesn't matter from which side we are looking at it.

What Germans did not so long time ago (I can't remember exactly when) is probably what we can expect to see in some other countries:

Quote
These are the restrictions applicable to players while gambling in Germany: €1,000 monthly deposit limit. €1 stake limit on online casino slots. No Live Casino Games or progressive Jackpot-Slots are permitted.

Would be nice to see how this work in reality, maybe some people from Germany will share their experience with us...

I wonder what would be the guidelines for having the certificate? What's the procedure?

If that requires looking for the financial aspects of the user, I doubt that is breaching the gambler's privacy. KYC is now slowly accepting even though others don't want it but looking for much deeper information like salary and financial capability, that is not a good thing already.

Government and casinos will just keep the usual way of reminding people to be responsible in gambling.
If they will start digging in with our private finances so they will know if we’re responsible or not, I guess that is already being disrespectful to our individual’s privacy and rights. And definitely, people will not allow that to happen. They will just chose not to gamble at all than to give up their privacy to any third party. However, I don’t think this is near to reality. Casinos will never love the idea for sure as it will only limit their players and most importantly their profits.

The authorities know very well that they should stick to those old methods that go back thousands of years and which enable them to keep people under control - panem et circenses or as they would say today "bread and circuses". In other words, people must not be hungry, and on the other hand, they should be allowed to play with their money, even if it means that some of them will become addicted to it to the extent that it will become a real problem.

After all, such a certificate would be almost meaningless, because not only would it be easy to forge it, but it would also be extremely complicated to verify every player. As for every casino and any other game of chance, it is enough to warn players to play responsibly, and that playing can be addictive. Everything else is a matter of personal choice.

Its kind of it needs a lot of effort to an gambler to get this so that they can play I mean it is good because it can make a gambler quit but this also lead to a lot of gamblers will quit meaning there are only few gamblers will gamble which also lead to low income to casino and their taxes would be lower also. What is really best is to strict the feature in casino like preventing them to spend more it is like responsible gambling but it is more stricter and with the AI right now it can help also analyze those problematic gamblers.

This will literally kill the goose that lays a golden egg, the Cryptocurrency casino industry thrives on anonymity and privacy even if it's for specific players it will harm the casinos, they will prefer to play on unregulated casinos just to protect their privacy, and if I'm a casino operator I will protect players that sustain the profit of the casinos.
Casinos have a lot of reminders about playing responsibly and it's not beyond their control if gamblers go beyond their limit.
KYC should only be to trace cheaters not to be used on how we play as a player and our character when playing.
Most gamblers really prioritize anonymity and don't want to give their personal data to the casino, so if the casino asks for something like that, the casino runs the big risk of losing more of their customers.
It's better for the casino not to overdo it in providing rules or policies so that gamblers can still feel comfortable when playing.
Of course, many gamblers don't like KYC, especially since this is clearly more difficult for gamblers who want to remain anonymous.
Need to know that whatever the reason is when it comes to being anonymous, it will always be a debate and cannot be easily accepted by gamblers.

Too much hassle i would say!

I dont think that we would really be going into this point on which certificates would be asked out.You cant really be able to conclude that if someone does have its own cert would justify that they wont get addicted
on the time that they would play on that particular day? There's no way on stopping out addiction once it would be able to shackle you on.

This is where crypto gambling would be even more popular once this would be strictly implemented into fiat casinos.Regulations and restrictions is common.
Whether we do like it or not there's no way on stopping them but at least we do really have options to take.

NO, I don't think that casinos will do this to protect their gamblers as it was not their responsibility either but it was our personal responsibility.
Should they need to hassle the gamblers? Okay, let us assume that they will ask that stuff, how they would expect replies instead, expect that gamblers will not use their platform anymore? It also conflicts with their privacy and certainly, they never do that even though they are a responsible gambler, I should not do that as well.

it is the industry that regulates itself and pushes for certain laws...  Roll Eyes
obviously they have no interest in such kind of regulation, in general who would be the institution or profession that should produce such a certification? with the right contacts or friendship network (or simply by paying a fair amount) it would be easy to have such a certification...

This would be only possible if the government have started issuing certificate to gamblers, as far as i know currently there is no such thing yet although i don't really know if some country already started. Gambling terms doesn't state that and anyone gambling is at his own risk whether they sells their property to gamble or whatever that belongs to them, is a matter of choice.

A responsible gambler certificate does not give assurance that a gambler is responsible even if it presented. It is just a printed paper or soft copy document that many people can forge, or were presented to them and earned at a time when they could control their gambling habits.

Many things can happen in a short time that can turn a person who even has a responsible gambler certificate to an irresponsible gambler with a responsible gambler certificate.

A certificate of responsible gambling is simply not sufficient to proof that someone is a responsible gambler to me.

The thing that immediately comes to my mind is that it is impossible to happen especially for those with a few users, the first is that the average gambler that I know does not play gambling on one gambling site, they tend to have multiple accounts at various casinos, so at this point I I wonder if it is implemented how to detect it, secondly I think the government doesn't care about that because the most important thing is that the casinos that operate in their country pay taxes to them and the problem of addiction lies in humans or the gamblers themselves so it will be quite difficult to deal with eradicated or resolved if not carried out by the gambler himself.

Lightning network is good with small amount of BTC
If this is implemented, then where will you get a certificate as a responsible gambler. But it looks too much if you have to use a certificate. this is the world of gambling, KYC that has been implemented at this time is even enough to reduce fraud and money laundering crimes. If you have to provide a certificate, it's like giving all data whatsoever to gambling. It's like participating in a competition or getting into college. Lol
Regulators will look for ways for money laundering not to occur, they will also look for ways gambling will not be in support of terrorism, that is just it, but they do not look for gamblers themselves if talking about their losses. If a gambler likes and sell his house and properties and use it to gamble, lose and get depressed and become nothing again in life, nobody cares, regulators do not care.

This is a good question, but how can this become reality without no privacy at all. Let us say no privacy on KYC gambling sites, but are the regulators ready for this? Maybe one day, but I do not think this is anything to be considered. If a gambler do not discipline himself and avoid irresponsible gambling, he will only face the losses.

I think people are underestimating methods of our modern society. As you all know banking system has our own data and rate it. Its shared with all banks. (I am talking about my own country Türkiye). Online casinos may develop some system that will rate specific gambling methods of people and it may not be even about consent. They may completely reject you to enter if you don't give consent. They may ask for point threshold to gamble on different games. This is literally possible with current computing systems.

It does not make sense as it is restriction of freedom of choice in most western developed countries.People are free to choose what they do with their own money and even if they lose huge amounts of money it is still their own responsibility and not the responsibility of the government.Most casinos have already implemented self exclusion policies for a certain amount of time and some even the extreme case of banning yourself forever if you feel like that.Governments have enough of problems on their own to tackle that to implement these type of certificates sounds like impossible in these countries.There are a few countries which are trying to tackle gambling by banning any gambling word in their domain like any website with "bet" word there to be not accessible but even this is not working out.

In the end it is only the sole responsibility of the gambler that in most case they can realize they are addicted and they to ask for professional help,there is no other choice.
