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.
What about your country as well ??

I don't know why Philippines isn't included in the list but it was understandable as our country doesn't really do online / crypto gambling but are more fond of local gambling such as Cockfighting, Horseracing, Lotto, and there's even a cost-friendly casinos called "Perya" (in which I already assure you have more audiences than high costing casinos) Our country even endorses Off-shore gambling companies hence a country where some online casino resides. As also mentioned by joeperry, the houseedge of casinos in here really is low or we might just been living our decades having families that made gambling their daily routines  Grin

Most gambling platform here in the Philippines is just a large company of casinos and of course only in the high class can afford that instead we have for the middle class and lower which is the stated by  Maus0728 they are popular in the Philippines most the Online sabong or online cockfight some of the medium is using with the cryptocurrency for making transactions, the managers are the one who responsible to make a cashout if they want and of course the large number of participants the large referral for the invitee to this is just one to earn in that online cockfight too. That's why this is one of the trends in the PH not only enjoying but also can earn through referral too.
The online sabong or online cock fighting is having huge headlines it reaches the senate investigation because of the
anomalies, the Philippine government is making a huge profit from the taxes of this online sabong I don't know the exact figures but with it being a controversial form of gambling here in the Philippines, I will not wonder if the Philippines will reach the top spot in the futures, because the government doesn't want it stopped because of the huge profit they are bringing to the government when they needed it most.

But  for me personally ? we should not celebrate being one of the country in this list because gambling means losses of the players and not of the owners  , meaning that it is the people will suffer from this.

I'm also glad that my country is not on the top list even if our government is the one running the casinos here, no one wants to see their country on the top list, they do not want to see that their country is the home of many gamblers because as we all know
gambling is a big concern not only for families but also for their respective countries, our country is very much relying upon taxes coming from gambling but our citizens are not going to the point that they are spending thousands of dollars just to gamble.

If gambling is not regulated then maybe we cannot see the real statistics of a country and maybe that data shows because they have proper regulation towards gambling and they already count the number of user based on the platforms statistics given to them by casinos. Maybe for now we cannot see how deep the problem of a country towards this issue so I guess all of the country should have proper regulation so that they can study and take action about possible implication what gambling can brought to their citizens.

I am very surprised to see countries such as Norway and Finland on a list together with some hardcore gambling nations. I have spent some time in Scandinavia in the past and gambling wasn't a big thing back in those days. I guess things have changed especially with the evolution of online casinos. I remember them as being quite passionate about horse racing and lotteries. But physical casinos and sportsbooks weren't that easy to find.   

Maybe the fact that the residents of these countries are law-abiding and use the services of only legal online casinos is also important, so all their spending is included in the statistics. Obviously, many residents of countries with strict regulation or high taxes take advantage of the opportunities provided by the Internet and cryptocurrencies, and thus their spending is not taken into account in such statistical studies.

Should i assume the accuracy of the data research that mentioned Australia as the best gambling country because I can't be sure of the prelocedures or means they arrived at this, possibly the rate amd numbers of gambling casinos and the involvement of the gamblers but the statistics couldn't be as accurate as expected all thesame, but i think this might still be a good directive by taking into consideration country's population, numbers of registered casinos, and as well as the rate of active gamblers on each casinos, why i said this is because i also as well sees my country to be one of the most active gambling country of which its not onnthe aboove mentioned list by OP

I was thinking that gambling is associated with bad economy cum poverty that pushes people especially youth to luck games and endeavors but to my surprise I have not seen developing world countries or less technological developed countries in the list or except Singapore if they are considered as such. Rather most of the countries on the list are European countries and Asia that are known as developed countries. African countries are not in the first 10, this however has taken away my assumption of poverty being associated with gambling.
US is not there surprisingly but I didn't expect to see UK on it.

I always believe that my country could be one of the tops because of the huge number of people that gamble because every corner of the streets has a lottery here, but being a third world country majority here will not even think of spending thousands of dollars in a month, they are spending a few hundreds every month and it's already considered serious gambling.

To be honest I can say that my own country is heavily addicted in gambling because that is what I observed around me. Almost all people here in our place, but even not on my place, are always caught out playing a gambling. They are addicted to gambling that even the illegal types of gambling are already included in their play.

On the news there are many gamblers that have been reported to get caught by the police. Online or crypto gambling might help these people to gamble secretly. I am only surprised that my country is not yet in the list but the another thing that surprised me is that Singapore is already in the 2nd list despite they started gambling too late.

Singapore ? at number 2? with 12 years running gambling in their country ? cannot believe the list lol, Imagine Singapore is just a Small country but will take the next to the highest rank as gambling being on topic.

But  for me personally ? we should not celebrate being one of the country in this list because gambling means losses of the players and not of the owners  , meaning that it is the people will suffer from this.

Depressive statistics for gamblers  Grin
I wonder why such an indicator was chosen - the average loss of a gambler, and not the "average amount of bets" or something like that? It is no surprise to anyone that on average the casino always wins and the player loses, but such statistics suggest that the one who paid for the study and publication of the results is an opponent of gambling and puts it in a negative light.

Though the data is not accurate as it is, but we are seeing snapshots on how much gamblers are losing per country. It may be depressing statistics but we don't know the motive of this study or maybe, that's the figure they can obtain to determine where each country stand when it comes to average loss of a gambler. Also, there are also missing figures like approximately how many gamblers are losing that amount. Anyway, this is just one of the gambling statistics out there. If you change the parameter, the ranking will be different.

Yes, a study with one parameter is absolutely meaningless. For example, in this case, none of the poor countries is present in this rating, although it is well known that gambling is very common in poor countries. But due to the chosen parameter, we will never "see" this, since the standard of living in such countries does not allow spending comparable amounts on gambling, even if they make up a large part of a person's budget.
If we do talk about numbers of players/gamblers then for sure this statistics or ranking would be suddenly be changed and its true that there are factors affecting these kind of surveys or statistics
on which first world gamblers would be always be having on the edge or on top because they are financially capabled comparing into hundreds of players who do play less in terms of finances or bet
amount which its understandable that they do only focus on the overall revenue or money generated from those activities.

If we expanded to the 50 to 100 countries in which the biggest gamblers were, we'd see more lists that most of us would like to see here. Since the 10 largest countries are in the same class as the US and UK they are not included, let alone any other smaller countries not exposed on the list. However, it is possible that almost everyone gambles in a cross-border way that is more undetected in their own country.

My country does not on the list well not quite obvious because we are in the part of the people just earning below the minimum wage but still, they are manage playing gambling like the poker and blackjack but not like in the casino things having a large wage, just a small amount for casual games. As I saw the process of the game too and the wage mostly the game will end up to 5 hours game and the wages is maximum of 2-3 dollars per game. In terms of crypto the centralized wallet does not allowed making a transaction with those and that's why mostly they use an exchange to make sure the account they are using are safe from freeze and holding of funds.

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 !

1. Australia
2. Singapore ( they only opened their first casino in 2010!)
3. Ireland
4. Canada
5. Finland
6. Italy
7. Hong Kong
8. Norway
9. Greece
10. Spain !!

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

well, average loss definitely attracts more clicks
there's the Schadenfreude effect of it as well

would be interesting to see other data like
total casino revenue on each contry
revenue per different gambling activity (lottery, slots, etc...)
so forth and so on

I am now curious as to which citizens gamble most. It should be the whole betting volume of a country divided by its total citizens. I cannot find one reliable source. Maybe because tourists are flocking to places with the biggest betting volumes like Macau and the US? And that made it harder to account the betting volume per country? So they just come up with many numbers like most losses per adult and country, top gambling revenue per country and so on.

The country where I live now from some years although has a small population should be at the top of that list because I think it took the government to ban every single small gambling entity here leaving only two casinos,the biggest ones.In 2019 the government took this step as even 11 years old were playing sport betting with money that their parents had given them for food,the situation was extremely disturbing so the government intervened.This all happened in Albania in 2019 while many here say this was just a move to favor the brother of the Prime Minister as he has the only online gambling platform allowed to play here,but by doing so the government also removed a big plague from the society here,it shows that since then economic growth is only increasing as mostly men bring home the salaries now rather than leaving all of it in neighbors small betting centers which do not exist anymore.
