I was sitting and wondering which countries might have the highest gambling rates and for me I thought it could be UK or the US but despite this I went on the web to do a rescarch on which countries gamble the most. Let's have a look at this, since this information might be interesting to you guys as well !

I was just as surprised as you guys since I did expect other countries to show up here as well instead of the ones that already did but you can recheck the same on the source : https://www.google.com/amp/s/www.worldatlas.com/amp/articles/countries-that-gamble-the-most.html
Other than that US , Canada,. Japan , UK are few of the countries known for their absolute support of the crypto casinos as well.

This must be based on a per capita basis right? Rather than total number of people gambling, as some of those countries have rather small populations in comparison to the UK and US examples that you gave. I also see that you mention certain countries give absolute support to crypto casinos as well and think this is wrong. You'll often find that most crypto casinos refuse to operate in places like the UK because of the stringent reporting and financial requirements that are often unfeasible to online crypto casinos, it's much easier for them to just block visitors from such countries no matter how rich they may be. It's not really a strong metric to aspire towards and it's kinda nice when you come down low in such results.

I am a little surprised as why the top 10 list does not contain US and UK ? I have heard that gambling in US is at its peak but i could not find its name in top 10 list Shocked

Another thing which i noticed is that these all countries are developed ones, however, i think that there are many gamblers who belong to the underdeveloped countries too. Aren't they included here?

The United States is not in this ranking, probably because it has a very large population and the ranking is based on the average loss per citizen of the country. Therefore, the total losses of US citizens must be huge to be in this ranking. UK may be in 11th or 12th place, who knows, unfortunately we only see the top 10 places.

I think you are mistaken here. The ranking is not based upon the loss but it is based on "Countries That Gamble The Most" and in this case US should be on top of the list. I think we should double check from another source too to check if the information provided by the site is authentic or not.

Gambling is frowned up in my country and although there are virtual casinos operating here and advertising on television channels, there isn't any data statistics relating my country to gambling activity. And maybe that is because it's impossible to release accurate results, since most gambling activity works on the background of the society, in a shady manner, with the exception of the lottery ran by the government.
Anyway, I guess gambling is very popular in my area, because most people I've known practiced gambling at least once during their lifetime, being it at slots, bingo, lottery, sports betting, roulette, cards and much more.

In what country is that which they allow ads on television? In my country, it's not allowed if it's not government-approved.

That's why it could be the same in your country but I just want to know what it is. But right now, it's quite a long until I've seen ads for gambling.

My country is starting to legalize those huge operations because of the tax that they give to the government.

money, money, money
it's interesting how incentives change everything

by this point of view I'm surprised brazil don't allow more forms of gambling, but for sure it has a relation with the weight religion here on political decisions too...

There are places in the world which are really that rich enough for them to ban out gambling or doesnt mind about the possible revenue that it could give since they are getting sufficient
on other industries and if they would be minding about their citizens condition or for their sake against addiction then they could ban it anytime but its no surprise
that majority of countries would consider out gambling industry since it is one of the highest revenue generating which it is no surprise to have this stance.

In some instances, their country prohibits the use of gambling because they know the behaviour of their community and also to make sure it's safe we know how too much satisfaction and gambling urge to play high-risk rewards that can double up your assets. The same here in the PH currently one of the top gambling platforms Cockfight close by the president due to different issues too and I guess the same with another country that's they prohibited playing gambling.

I'm happy seeing the list that the most gamblers are coming from developed countries, because if it does come from an underdeveloped country where poverty is at its worst, then we can say that they are making the life worst.

I remember a topic before here that some casino owners are setting up gambling businesses in an area where the majority is not that rich, but not that poor. I can't find the related topic unfortunately but I think the OP here was the same? Not sure though.

On the positive side, the casino established in those areas gives a positive effect on the people since it creates job opportunities. Most customers also came from other areas and did not totally come from the place where the casino was established. It also opens small business opportunities to those people there.

And if I remember correctly, the reason why casinos choose to set up in those areas is to avoid high taxes.

Yes, the trend in developed countries is very good in terms of platforms, but I can also affirm something that contradicts all logic, sometimes in countries that one considers underdeveloped, but that at some point gambling and betting always work because within its people there are many who are so rich that they do not know what to spend their money on, this same example happens in Venezuela, there are people so rich that they frequent casinos a lot, at one point gambling was prohibited, now it is currently one Of the businesses that are giving money like rice, even the same government politicians spend millions of dollars on these sites, I would say that a good campaign directed at this country of online casinos would not go amiss.

Wow, the countries you thought will be the first on the list are not there. There are more countries that gamble more than some on the list that are not there. I don't know what factors that are used to rate these countries but I think those factors needs to be known so we can be sure if these are just based on assumption or the fact.
I know country like Hong Kong and Italy that do gamble almost every single moment cause they see betting as part of life from fight betting to normal street betting that can involve any thing thinkable.

Television advertisement doesnt mean that everything could really be shown of and there's regulatory board which would really be in concern on what things should be showed on tv screen
considering that there are minors or youths which could potentially able to see those gambling ads if ever they would be allowing it which it would be totally not really that good or inappropriate.
Here on my country there are several casinos too but i didnt see any ads regarding about these things which i do say that it is really just right.

Yeah, there has to be a regulatory board that will monitor the ads that will be shown on the national television.

And that's why if it isn't approved by the government or by that board then it won't be shown. I've saw them long time ago but not anymore today so that has got my attention.

A lot of viewers would see those ads related to gambling if shown on the national tv.

I would certainly agree on that, the top on the list is something I am not surprised to know as well. Australia has been indeed a topic when in comes to conversations concerning gambling rate and stuff like that. As per my country, it doesn’t stand on the list, but I believe that a lot of our citizens are also falling deep into gambling. Especially nowadays that online gambling, whether with flat or crypto, are growing popular all over our country.

The list must vary depending on different gambling news researchers, writers and journalists. But, the number 1 on OP's list is correct because Australians are all into gambling and I've read different articles pointing at some actions that gamblers in Australia take which goes against the rule of gambling. These citizens are not adults but, they use their parent's IDs as KYC which is a bad step to opening an account that most online casinos ruled out as a sin and such users can get banned for breaking the TOS of the company or platform.

the same as in my country where casinos are still carried out in secret. and those who are forced to play will plunge into the casino secretly. and the casino here is not only used as entertainment, but the players have high hopes that their lives can improve drastically through casino profits.

because the economy is not good and most of the people who have lost their jobs. and they make a living through casinos. but lately more and more players.

I think I now understand why gambling in your country is restricted because if they didn't do it then it can lead to a more poorer life because in your country jobs are already limited and people have a wrong mindset about gambling because they think gambling can be a good alternative to it. Instead of prioritizing gambling and making it more legal, would it be better if the government focus first on providing jobs to their people?

There must be wealthy people living on your country and they are the ones that will treat gambling as a form of entertainment and not as a way to make more money because they are already wealthy anyway.

One could understand the rate a d level of how many of these casinos have been abused by the street gangs across the world, most claim under gambling but are real mafias, i see the need why government have to create certain regulations to curb some of these irrelevant acts by gamblers and its really affecting casinos, its a game to olay with fun but whenever a gambler stand on a verge of loosing alot there comes in triqish ways for manipulations and fight, but i think where such countries can stand is when most of the gamblers really have result to show forth for it other than causing nuisance.

If the casino is still being carried out in secret, some rules will pressure the casino owner to follow the regulations. Or it is because your country has very strict laws regarding gambling or even prohibits it. If this is the case in your country, casino owners will choose to run their gambling business underground and seek protection from corrupt officials. It will also trigger more and more gamblers who will play at the casino because they can find comfort in playing gambling.

What about your country as well ??

I think every economically well developed country will always have high fees for operating casinos.
Because in general, casinos are not seen with good eyes, either for cultural reasons or for encouraging illicit practices, so they push high fees in order to have some control over this sector.
Talking about my country (Brazil), here it doesn't even allow the activity of casinos.
