Bitcoin Forum

Most sites, at least dice sites, provide either a login url (Just-Dice, SatoshiDice) or ask for a user name and password (BitDice, PrimeDice).

One of the benefits of Bitcoin gambling is betting anonymously.

There has been a couple of sites however that allowed you to login with your social media profiles, though they seem to be dead now :)

Do you think sites should offer the option of login via social media profile as well as the normal username/password?

Even a gambling sites will have a feature like that, I doubt there will be a person who will registered via linking their social media account into that gambling site. In the world of cryptocurrency, we care for our identity so giving away those personal social media account is not a wiser thing to do.

Also I can't seem to understand why those gambling site owners will have a feature like that in the first place. Online gambling is prohibited in some areas since it's not regulated. I will just understand if they are really a registered company and truly recognized as legit gambling site in most of the countries.

For me, I won't bother to login and what is the anonymity that bitcoin promises if I will have to part away with my privacy. Even exchange sites that have asked me for too much details hiding under the KYC stuff, I just pass and look for other sites that we can both have agreement on the amount of details we are sharing for the service I am going to enjoy. For gambling site, I will just pass and take my money elsewhere.

It wouldn't hurt for sites to offer those logins, but I don't think the usage rate would be very high. By linking xDice, you are telling Twitter that you want to gamble with cryptocurrencies. Some people would prefer keeping the fact that they gamble private, or some people live in places where gambling is illegal. Most people don't have a separate Twitter account for their online profile and a real life profile, and I doubt many people want others to know that your name is X, you gamble at X, you have X profit/loss, e.t.c.

I don't think that many people would like to link the social media profile to gambling site. However, this feature can't damage gambling sites themselfs very much. As long as login with your social profile is only additional feature, along with the standart user/password and customers have a choice how to login it can be used.

I would not like to log in to a gambling site with my social network accounts, I would not fell myself protected at all. Now its much easier to register on bitcoin gambling site, many of them do not ask for copy of ID, credit card like its case with fiat casinos. I like this anonymous way of registration, and I always have different usernames and passwords for each site.

I would still do.
I don't really care about anonymity.
Logging in with a social media account would be more convenient and easier since you will only need to press 1 button.

Online gambling is a Gary area where I am, Even so I can't see anyone willing to give up their identity just to log into a gambling site. There shouldn't be any reason to offer it. It wouldn't boost registration as signing up for most site is a very simple and quick process/

Everyone likes to keep gambling private and i am not sure many people would be happy to log in using their personal twitter google or facebook IDS as people are gambling with crypto currency to be anonymous and not to be a public figure .Privacy will be the major concern here and i personally would not like my parents or my employees to know that i would gamble once in a while. :) It all depends on choices and i have seen people using their personal social handles to log in to piracy sites ::)  :D.

What are these couple of sites? The id identification with Facebook could easily rigged off with easy tricks ... like create a new account!
I think it's not convenient for real gaming.

It is a good thought process and people like you really need to have options like these. ;) Online gambling is frown upon by many governments around the globe and even minors are dabbling into sites without much hurdle because of the anonymous nature of bitcoin gambling and i do not think that people would be using their social media accounts .

Everyone so far seems to have given the expected response :)

I wouldn't use it either but there are benefits to it.

You don't have to trust sites to store and secure your password. In the event they do not properly secure your passwords a hack or database leak could mean your password is public and can be used to login to other sites where you have used the same password. But you should be using a different one for each site anyway ;)
Using login via Facebook etc means that is not a problem. There is no password to leak.

A site could also set it up in a way where they do not record your name or personal info from the details retrieved from your social media profile. Just your user Id. Though you would be trusting a site not to do this.

A site could aslo setup the login system on a non gambling or bitcoin related domain so that Facebook etc don't know you are logging in to a gamvling site. Sure they could figure out eventually though.

A player could also create fake Facebook account to use for password but then if they are going to go to the hassle of doing that then they probably are the type to use fake email and unique passwords etc.

I was just curious as I was writing an OAuth login system at the moment and wondered if this is a feature to add or not.
As simple as it is to do so it probably is a bad idea and could even put some people off using a site.

I would never login with my Twitter,Google or Facebook Id to any bitcoin gambling site. Bitcoin offers a really good way to gamble anonymously and if you will login with any of the above methods will remove your privacy and everyone will know you. Of course you can join with Facebook when you have "a just made up account for fun" but still I would not do it. A lot of gamblers are turning to bitcoin casinos and sportsbook because of the anonymity it offers.

If you are really spending your time online make sure you are using a different password in each and every site and if that is the case there is not much of a problem even if your passwords are leaked and it is a breach in a gambling site sure you will be losing your coins you are holding their,so it doesnt matter if you are using social media logs or not.

 Creating fake social media accounts to log into a gambling site takes a much longer time than logging using the conventional way which is much better.

Why not? when you try with google+ or TW or FB you will be notified about the information that site could have access which in most cases they only can view your contact list read your profile nothing about security though. and since when any of social medias care about their users activity? lol it's internet not dictatorship.

I am not so active at facebook and other similar sites. Recently, I already remove my friends/families that know me in my real life from my friends list at facebook due to the fact that some gambling sites offers giveaways by posting our username at the comment box. I don't want they notice me as a gambler. And if gambling sites require me to login their sites using my facebook account, I will do it. Nothing will hurt me now!

I dont think anyone would be willing to spare his private account details to log in into a gambling site but for fake accounts then that wouldn't be a problem and the reason for that is irrespective of how addicted one might be to gambling we try to seperate our online life from our personal lives and most social accounts are who we really are and even exposure might hurt not only us but people who matter to us...

The option should be available, because if someone doesn't have problem with that it's an easier way to login.
But an alternative way to login should be presented for people who would like to protect their identity and use the site anonymously.
I, myself, won't login to a gambling site using a social account.

comarataion login use social media twitter or facebook in gambling site iam prefered login use URL or login use user name and password
still anonymous, still easy, because bitcoin gambling advantage another gambling site is anonymous and without verified ID

Before knowing about Bitcoin, I used to provide my ID in order to access to the casino both online and on the physical world. Now, since Bitcoin is a part of my life, it will be very insane if I connect my social media account to them. I love to be anonymous and Bitcoin can bring it to me. Gambling without ID will help you to avoid a lot of troubles which may exist during the time you play. Therefore, I never login to gambling site with other kinds of account

I dont know whats the reason behind on those feature which gambling sites do have an option like that and also it seems that players wont really use it at all because as you said we care for our identity and registering on the site using social media accounts is not really good because its like you are showing your own identity to them and its not a wise thing.This is just a useless feature for me.

Agreed everything you said except that the third party we are talking about is a gambling site.
That's why a lot of people here are hesitant to use their social media accounts to login to.

Personally, I will used my social media accounts to login to a gambling site to play, and once
I'm done with playing in the gambling site, To keep privacy and security, I will simply
"Revoke my access to those sites.

What's the essence of anonymity if they are going to require you to log in with your real account. BUt if they are hardly requiring that you can just have some other dummy accounts and let them access that and you'll lose nothing with it. And if that is their own way of requiring a gambler to play with their site, it's their jurisdiction.

Of all the dice sites I've played I haven't really come across where they will require me to signup or login using a social media account. I mea I think if a gambling sites will require that I think that it's a bit redundant with bitcoins feature as anonimity and untraceble atleast to personal details of the one using it. Ifthere are ever I think I'll be using a fake accout which doesn't have my personal details if it's the only option.

I probably would if I am using throwaway accounts. I would never use my main social media accounts to login to any Bitcoin gambling sites.

I would do the same thing too on which creating or using a fake account if it really needs to log-in on that gambling site and you are right its really opposing on bitcoins feature regarding on anonymity because showing off you social media account will surely expose you off.

i won't mate, most of us gamble using bitcoin because we wanted to be anonymous and with this type of casino we'll be able to do our secret activities so for me i won't use my social media account to log in with any casino house even dice sites i'm willing to create an account using maybe email and use username and password.

Unlikely. I probably wouldn't take the chance that they'll post to my profile.

I wont log-in my social media accounts when im planning to play on any gambling sites its either dice or pokers etc. because online gambling and real gambling is prohibited on our country which means my identity should not be shown that I am playing gambling because if our government will find out then I would end up on jail for sure.

Not at all, I will not use my social media accounts for login purposes nowhere. These days I also observed many sites offer access to their sites using your one of the mentioned account. I am easy by easy stop using those gambling sites where login required since it is compromise over privacy. Bitcoin has good solution and some gambling sites already allow to complete transaction fully anonymous way.

Would you login to a gambling site with Twitter, Google or Facebook Id?

No I wouldn't login to a bitcoin related gambling site with any of my real life info/details. I like to keep anything bitcoin related totally seperate & distanced from my real details. I'd advise everybody to follow a similar practice.

usually when we start to register on social media such as twitter, google or facebook automatically will provide personal ID and if there is gambling sites have those feature or mandatory must login via social media i think people aren't willing to do that and for me just keep anonymous and i would avoid if there is gambling sites with these kind of feature

Yup this is not safe, I will also not use my personal accounts to play gambling. Govt will catch us this is one reason and if I log into social media accounts my friends, and family members will get to know that I am in gambling activity. I don't like to expose this thing to my family members and friends. So I will not have sine up with my social media accounts.

I see that some gambling websites have the option to share your win on social media and I think it will be a good option to have to be able to login to your account through one of the social media websites. This could be useful for tipsters as people can see their profile and then the stats for the gambling too and would be great fun. I'm sure that most of the people will be against the idea though. AS gambling is still not accepted in the majority of the population and people mostly gamble with bitcoins to keep their anonymity.

Yes, No problem with the login with any social sites like facebook or gmail .. etc
Of course, if the gambling site is so trusted and secure.
But we should avoid, New sites, that maybe can steal your informations.
So be smart, and try to search first about the sites and decide if you can trust it or not. Because some of sites are scams, In the begining they pay, and after few weeks if they enter in the revenue(loss) They start to scam. so be carefull

I dont prefer to login any gambling sites through my social media profile as i dont want any sort of any problem with the social media account as it contains all personal and professional details. It is also not good as some sites are hacking the personal details and try to login to other sites to hack it. So it is always good to signup with new account with username and password and dont use the passwords which you are using in other sites.

IMO, it will easier for user to register on the site but in other side, our identity will be reveal !
But in the end , it depend on user objective whenever they want to use any login type as long as the site are trustable and long run operated !

I will not log in my Facebook and Twitter account or Gmail account into a gambling site , I'm proud being a gambler but it's good not to publicised it , And it can cause spam to our accounts too. And one thing this can cause our identity revealed if the social media accounts is connected in a gambling site.

I won't also used my social media accounts to login to any gambling sites. Specially if you are working and have a managerial position and up in a company. You command respect. But if they see that you are gambling, maybe some of your employees will lose respect on you because they know that you are a gambler.

Ahahahahah
No! Never! Not in your dreams  ;D

Let's be fair, BTC gambling is great for one thing only: anonymity
Sure it's not perfect, but it's good enough so you never have to hide your winnings for example.
So giving out my name and linking it to an adress?
lol

What's the issue?  You can use fake account too LOL.  Most of us here have extra social media accounts like FB, twitter and other stuff that we use to broadcast what is in our thought.  So I guess, I have no issue to use any social media account in logging in Casino sites as long as it is not my main one :)

Logging with a fake id and others name both are same. Here your identity will not display, and no one will find who you are. So this means you are hiding your identity. I think OP is asking will you login casino sites with your own social media accounts. My answer is No I am not ready to play with my own identity. And I will not use my fake accounts also all fake accounts will relate to any one main account. The normal people can not find that, but police can crack that chain links. 

Although (and maybe beacuse) I use gmail account to log on sites which support it, I wouldn't use it for any BTC site, especially for gambling.

I like the concept of anonymous sign up offered by crypto-games.net and others

Honestly this is looks like a stupid question or this is like impossible things and even I think there is no gambling sites that can register via facebook, twitter, google +.

even i not use my primary email to register in some gambling site, i just think that my primary email only for wallet and the other very important things that need my primary email. so i wouldn't ever try to sign up with my social media account 

You got it wrong, there are some gambling sites that has a feature to register/sign in with media social accounts. One of them is btc-casino.io (I dont recommend it tough as this site has some scam accusations)

It would be a plus for some people if gambling sites offered it. I would use 1 of my twitter accounts to login. Not my facebook or google tho because I like to stay anonymous on gambling sites as said in OP.

lol you think when you did not login using facebook or google account you are gambling anonymously? i think as long as you did not provide real info on your accounts no matter it is twitter, google plus, facebook etc , it is not a problem.

things that break the anonymous feature are when the site ask for ID verification.

I'm not going to drag myself to commit violation. Online gambling is prohibited in my country and that is like I'm admitting that I'm an online gambler regardless of its bitcoin or real money that I'm using, that is still against the law to gamble online. And we know the power of social medias it is now being monitored by governments and other agencies. So I will not going to put myself for this, I want to stay anonymous.

I think most of the players do not really use a real account because it will show the identity. I have never played on the gambling sites that provide such an option. if there is, I would not use my fb or twitter

And no one wants to know and give our information to those social medias because they can simply add us up to their database linking to thousands of ads daily when they knew that we are into bitcoin gambling. This is really not a good idea for those casino's that are planning to link their site players to social media, because no one really cares for it and won't do this.

No! That beats the purpose of gambling with bitcoins. Can you imagine how all the wives will get mad if they find out that their husbands have been using their money for groceries in dice games? The wives will find out and believe me it will be like world war 3 in your home.

Because indeed we should not be too show off our identity to any place, including to the gambling site. Too risky in case of unwanted things, you will be easily found. Even now the cyber been more intense, sometimes people using false identities can be tracked. Especially on fb and twitter we usually display our identity in detail.

That will a safe way if we not show up our identity, but mostly people using Social Media not use real Identity too, so it's not been to risky use our Social Media account to login in gambling site, but I prefer not use my Social Media Id to login in gambling site, but it is up to each people.

There's one casino that I know that uses a facebook id when logging in which is bitkong.com. I personally haven't tried the feature because they have accounts already made when you visit the site.

it give the casino site the satisfaction of having soxial media login when it defeats the purpose of anon for someone using their real accounts.

i have no issue using fake account to login but if the site send pms and constantly spaming annoying updates, i wouldn't use it to login. it would still be annoying for anyone bombard with updates not your concern.

Several gambling websites have given us the access to gamble without revealing our identity, then why to use Facebook, Google or Twitter account to access gambling websites. This helps us to participate into gambling even if you're in the country where gambling is legally banned and if found using its considered a crime.

There might people would really use their social media accounts on logging on a gambling site because they don't mind if they expose their identities on playing gambling. Signing up on just using your social media account and stuffs is really a non-hassle/convenient thing but on most gamblers they wont really use this stuff.

why should use twitter/fb/googleID to signup/login on gambling site if we can use unique URL only for ourself or register with unique username and email, i don't think it will safe because our social media its not safe to use gambling its private :) i dont think it will safe if the gambling owner will hack our social media if that gambling site not trusted enough

They do really have the access on our social media accounts since we do log-in using that thing and its not really a good thing to do in my own opinion and for sure most gamblers wouldnt do also on this kind of thing.Better to be safe without risking our identity on public.

Yup people are always trying to hack our casino sites accounts to hack our coins, So if we log in with our social media accounts they will get access on our social media accounts. If it happens, we will lose 2 things one is our coins in sites, and another one is they can use our social media profile to any other bad things. So better don't use your personal accounts to log in any casino sites.

I think it not necessary because I prefer anonymous login without the need for a social media profile. By login on gambling sites using social media profile it means our identity will can be found. I prefer anonymous because my identity and security can be maintained, it will be more secure because of privacy maintained.

You are right both things will be compromised as well because they know already your informations which they could anytime use it if they have plans on you and i dont like that for that thing will happen to me.Better to use the traditional ways on playing gambling online.

i think it is a good feature to have, but not a required feature because many users may not want it at all, and feel their privacy is compromised.

but i think it is not such a bad idea if for example the gambling site has an option for you to choose between signing up with Email, or Facebook, .... or other social media profiles and also let you post stuff on your social media for example a nice win on your twitter or automatically post your ref link with nice pictures and your win bet on your twitter. but as i said it must be an optional feature.

Involving personal matters on gambling is very risky because it might result ro leakage of your information when the gambling site is caught by Law. Gambling is not legal on many countries so it is not advisable to attached personal info and it os better to play anonymously so that no worries in future.

Me too. Usually i create a dummy account when logging in to a gambling site. It really doesn't sit well with me or i don't feel at ease with the thought that the information i have in my social accounts would be seen or accessed by anyone. With the frequency of identity theft nowadays, i wouldn't risk it.

thats another reason why i dont want to use the site who ask personal information since im afraid to compromised by them if something bad happen to them truly and also it can put us invain if the site we give our identity is just collecting personal data so that they have information to be used on their online ilegal activity, so giving an personal info for me is a big no.

For me i would not use my social media accounts or email accounts to login in a gambling site because it can compromise my private accounts. The owner of that site has a hidden motive that letting his users to login with their private accounts. It has a high possibily that some users accounts will be hacked. To be safe i'll created a dummy account to use in that site. If they are wise, be wiser than them.

That would be a red flag and not to be tried has ones privacy can be compromised... should hackers have access to the gambling sites database unless you are using fake info which is not advisable as you might get funds locked out or confiscated  ::)

Don't tink so, as not for me i tink xd

not willing to link any gambling site with my social profile :P

Depends on the social media accounts that I own, if I only have one real social media account then I would not use it to register on a gambling site. Perhaps if most gambling sites requires social media account to play then I will create a new fake account and keep my real accounts for other purposes.

For me, i am simply playing gambling with my bitcoin, and nothing else. Even i am not using other altcoin in gambling sites. So for me, i don't login with twitter, google or facebook id to gambling sites. Also i don't think that majority of the people are using that ways for playing gambling.   

The whole point for using Bitcoin while gambling is doing things with the quickness. There isn't any reason to get famous for your identity when gambling online.

Get the money then go on to your next thing.

So no, i wouldn't login with any Twitter, Facebook or Google account.

I would agree with this, usually AFAIK if connecting to your social media for example Facebook it's required an authorizer which it can be tracked in such activity from our social media.

I think nowadays such registration is have been dead. Personally if it's need required such registration in gambling site especially, I've been lazy first.

i like the site with social login (not only gambling), because for more site i don't remember username and with social login i don't get add every time

I would because I'm not giving my personal details to any of the social media sites. My accounts there are fake and I don't have them to post pictures of myself all over the internet. I need the accounts to be able to communicate with people, who mainly use stuff like fb messenger and would otherwise be out of reach. If you have your real name there you are screwed anyway, so I wouldn't care much about gambling,

Indeed social media are tools to communicate with other people not a personal platform where you sell your own identities and shout out to the world that you have been doing this and that with all sort of your personal pictures.  But sad people think of it that way lol, as a result, they find it invading privacy when some application or sites let them log in with their social media account.  How could that be when he is the one exposing his own doing thru that social media platform.

I wouldn't mind logging in with my social media account because I have them with my pseudoname.

I am not really occupied with anonymity since casinos are legal in my country if I am not mistaken. And yet I am not happy with some casino having my profile information, although I understand it is not likely to change much in my life. Just want some privacy in such things. But e-mail confirmation is okay.

I wouldn't use my social media profile to connect to any gambling site.. Especially ones that don't require ID confirmation...

Why would you want this? It is not that difficult to set up a password manager to get you easy log ins to those sites without needing to remember a password for every one of them.

Well I once register to a gambling site that has an option and I registered my facebook account,
I don't even care if what's going to happen next after that so I provably would do it again next time.

I started gambling, because of bitcoin, before it i know about gambling sites, but i was not using them with twitter, google and Facebook Id. Because i don't want to gambler, but now i am gambler, so i don't want to use anything more except bitcoin. Because for me, it is easy to play gambling with bitcoin other than twitter, google and Facebook Id.

I would login anyway, if some site arrange their site like that I hope they are protected enough for that. Even I would have SMS verification when I withdrawing money I have there I don't know how safe this actually is.
Here the most important thing is protection, I would read about how this work, but I'm not lazy to make new account in some online casino and feel better protected.

I would imagine most ordinary people would not mind doing this. However, since one of bitcoins advantages is ensured (partial at least) anonymity, I think people would be reluctant. Making it easy to create new accounts means the sites have no responsibility to police, and people can gamble regardless of laws, which is probably more of a good thing then a bad thing.

Never. Why would I want to give my personal details to a website which I am first on to be anonymous. Never seen any website do this though. Almost all of them have this tiny text at the bottom saying login/register using email directly.

There's nothing wrong if they do offer that option BUT they should still have the normal sign up set up with uname and password. Signing up using social media accounts still depend on the users if they want to. Personally, I do have different social media account for bitcoin and for personal, so I can sign up without risking any personal data.

when I want to gamble i would like to stay hidden, so for sure I won't use any of the social media Id that can be seen, when I want to gamble I will use fake ID and email, that is the reason why i like to gamble with bitcoin because the site doesn't care about your identity, they won't try to verify your ID

i don't want to use my twitter, google or facebook id to playing gambling because it is not safe for me and i want to playing gambling anonymous and stay in the dark. i'd better to use moneypot to login into gambling sites and playing gambling games. but if i have a fake twitter, google, or facebook, then maybe i can use it to playing gambling.

I hope people who addicted to gambling will login gambling through their social media websites. But most of the people don't want to share their personal identity to globally. Because many people have an idea that their relatives may think bad on him, so some people are not interested to login with those sites.

i don't like the privacy that i may lose by linking my social media accounts such as facebook but in a sense it can also be useful to connect these accounts so that you can also share your refferal link on each of these places and have your friends click on it and join with that link so that you can enjoy the referral omission too.

Nope. I will stay on traditional way. I dont want to link any of my social media accounts on gambling. I dont want them to see me that im addicted to gambling. Its very shameful for me. I still want privacy whenever i play gambling. I bet others wants privacy too. I still want it separated no matter what.

No I Never Tried to Login with my Facebook, Twitter Or any Other Social Media to Login in Gambling Websites because I Don't Want to Take a risk of my Privacy and I Also Don't Want to Take a Risk of My Social Media Accounts because I can't Trust a Gambling Website to Link My Social Media Accounts.......

I don't see the point in using btc if it's to give your name and data when logging in...

I mean the main aspect of btc is privacy!
There is no privacy if I login with freaking Googl lol xD

Ofcourse not , loging in with your social media account even the gambling site hides it is not a good thing ,since BTC is anonymous so you should hide also yourself especially in those countries like my country that banned online gambling sites . There's no such thing to log in a social media just for you to play in a gambling i would rather not play if it is the only way to log in .

no problem for me i can log with twitter google or facebook, you know why? because i have fake account there too lol, you really think i'm going to give up to my privacy because of this? of course not, you can alwys be anonymous on the internet unless they are asking id proof with photo, and for those site i stay away from their business

Since there is no bitcoin that can be stolen from my social media accounts the only risk that I can get with it is my information. It can be use by those gambling operators if they want to from shady things that we don't know. It's all over the news that there are some that are collecting information and sells it out to marketers and there are some that uses your name.

Yeaaa you can always create a one time used social media account, so it should not be a big deal.
But what is the point have to use social mefia to log in or sign up?
It is really not necessary , it will makes people have a lot of speculation, people will accuse the site owner to collecting info of player.

i don't see any point it that, and it actually is a privacy concern for me to do that so i will never do it if i see the option somewhere. but also you may be able to easily advertise your affiliate link from that casino on social media. imagine posting your winning roll directly from the casino on facebook and the link is your ref link. that way your friends can easily be your referral too.

I do logging in using my social media accounts before when I am not yet aware of hacking and scam sites. As a user, we are responsible to take care of our account from untrusted websites. I don't use them anymore in joining gambling sites, I usually now registering with alternate e-mail address.

There is no problem if use same ID of your social media account to gambling site so that hou can easily remember it. It is safe as long as you didn't use same password on both gambling site and social media acct. And always use 2fa security if available to avoid possible hack attempt on tour account

I think so, just so people can choose what they want. I've seen some sites that are like this. For example, Spotify. It's not a gambling site but it lets you log in through your facebook account or you're going to register an account. I get lazy sometimes and I just hit log in through facebook since I don't think there's anything wrong with it. Same goes with gambling, there's no big deal if someone sees my profile in a gambling site. I don't really have to remain that much anonymous since there's nothing wrong with gambling online (in my country, at least).

well if you don't have restriction and your love ones knew about your activity might be possible but in my case my gambling activity is just discreet and i don't want it to be known by my friends and family that's why i really don't like to use my social media account to play with gambling site.

I see that it is your way to cover all the things you do in gambling. For those who do not will be gambling may admit what they are doing, because gambling is a very bad place for those who already know it or getting the story from others. You should be able to control themselves in gambling, if indeed you do not want known to all people. For if you can't control yourself, it will be very easy for everyone to know it

No i wouldn't because we never know what terms they may add as most of us simply authorize and don't really
read what we are allowing them to do. Plus if there is a email option then that is just the best one as they can't
really do anything if i provide them my email

I dont think so but if I will gonna use such feature. I will only use a dummy account and not the real one. I dont want to reveal my identity and I guess others will do the same.

I definitely wouldn't use that feature if it was offered on a gambling website.
There's too much information on social media profiles and I think that a gambling site doesn't have any business knowing everything about you.

I prefer to use the secondary mail that I've have for the use in gambling websites. The reason is that the same as quoted in the above post, most of the personal information have been saved to it. At any point losing it makes a risk, as well it serves to be an information hub to know all about us.

Yes, what will be the use of your informations if you are only a gambler . Even real casino's will dont waste time to know you if once you enter ,they only know you will play gambling. So its a big questionable there . In my own knowledge about giving some information of mine i am mindful that i will only give my basic information or identity in a legal company which i know and have a proof of legitimization.

I still don't want to used my social media accounts to login to a gambling sites because I don't want to expose myself to others in my circle that I'm gambling. I'm not ashamed of my gambling as I'm not addicted to it, however, I just want to remain private about it. Or maybe in the future if you are trying to get a job and saw that in your social media accounts that you are gambling, chances are the company that you are applying will have second thoughts hiring you because you are attached in gambling.

yes all must do the same with you. Login with facebook, twitter, google and so means they keep our identity. Safe only if there is no bad thing, but we do not know what will happen, we can not control what we will get, if there are times when we do bad things by accident, we could be a little safe if it does not enter our identity in fact our identity in as much detail as facebook, twitter and others.

I only use my social media accounts for logging-in on trusted and verified sites. I don't want to risk my account informations especially on gambling sites that usually for players that hides their identity. Anyway, there are security features that makes your account safe.

That's correct dude. Especially these times when security can easily be compromised through the internet. I also don't put private information in my social.media accounts but still therr are information and things there that can be abused if accessed by other people. Its better to be safe than sorry.

They will get your token and if they do they can view your activities and all of your messages from facebook im preffered to create a new and fresh account than risking my social accounts. But i think of most of the gambling website don't use this log in auntentication

i find it easy to log in with social media account, you don't need to create another account every time for registration, but i don't want to expose my privacy, therefore i use a fake account especially with facebook that have all your detail and identity

Nope, I don't like to provide my personal information to a gambling site and this is one of the reason why I like using bitcoin to gamble. If the day comes when you need to verify yourself when gambling with bitcoin, I might as well use fiat to gamble instead. The advantage of using bitcoin is anonymity and this is something gambling in fiat does not provide.

I don't think so. For me I don't want because there's a lot things or information about my accounts and I dont want to acces it by someone. I like to play gambling as a anonymous so that no one can bother me. And besides when there's a possibility that a gambling site was being hacked, I dont want my infos when my account is logged in. Hackers might access my info and might use it to something that may cause me some problems. Nowadays it is better to be safe than to risk something. You need to be sure in some things that may get worse and then you realize in ending what have you've done. That's all. Thank you. Goodluck Bitcoiners! :)

I just think it was bad idea for a casino who have feature to linked social media to their account.
Most player never want to share any gambling activity to their social media account, never proud of it.
Social media indeed good for promotion , but i don't think people who have gamble for years will love it.

I feel it's risky and might give out so much information about the player than he wants to let out so a sense of insecurity might ensue and the ability of attacks on individual accounts will escalate and put insecured players off gambling websites do it better not be implemented on a large scale.

Your one point is correct, and many people will not like to share their gambling activities to family members and friends and loved once. If you log in with any social media account then automatically they will get to know that you are in gambling activity. That is why people scare to use their personal social media account to log in any gambling site.

For the ease of convence yes I would. It would make things much more easy to manage as a player and have the accounts we play on all connected but perhaps that is a problem because of the google account is hacked or the password lost or something like thst then all the casinos and their respective balances will be locked out. Thst would not be good. Privacy can be an issue too but of coarse you not forced to use this method of logging in. Maybe it will just become too problematic for casinoes to deal with if things go wrong since they not on control of google and other account they can only control your account and the email assigned to it

i think if we want to playing gambling with using bitcoin as our bets, its not good to login with our twitter, google or facebook because for me, i want to be invincible and i don't want to show my activity to other people so when i am playing gambling, i hope that there is no other people that will know.

yes it is also because we think that gambling is not a good thing to do, and that's reality. Gambling is not too good to be done so that we do not want others to know that we are gamblers. By logging in using the account twitter, google, facebook and others can create privacy we spread our identities are also scattered.

to be honest, it sounds a bit silly to want to log in to a gambling site with my twitter, google or facebook account IDs and reveal my true identity to the site that i am gambling with bitcoin and anonymously!!!

many bitcoin gamblers have switched from fiat to bitcoin gambling because of the privacy that it offers them and the fact that they don't have to give their identity to the sites anymore!

If you will ask tome about this then heartly i will say '' no'', because gambling can a good thing in my life but it is really a bad thing for my family and friend circle , If i will login in the gambling site with the use of the facebook id or twitter then i will come identified by many of my friends .
So here i will ever prefer or use this option of login through the facebook oer twitter ( a good thing is that this fascility is avalaible )

When you link your social media accounts you are relying on the security of those accounts and when it comes to google which is a giant multi national company why not letting them to deal with the safety hassles?

It's okay if they provide the login option using facebook twitter or google. But i don't think many people will use it as it will reveal their identity. I personally wouldn't use that login option if it's available.

most people also don't liked those feature too especially if you were playing on not trustable sites because very possible they will collect your personal informations and sell it to the particular sites and i think besides people want to still anonymous login to the gambling sites using social media also dangerous

Personally,  loging in with social media account even the gambling site hides it is not a good idea because I dont allow those services (facebook,google,twitter,etc)  to make a request any data or information about me.  I just want to hide  all my activities especially when playing gambling  to other people. Since bitcoin is not legal in my country, I dont need to reveal my identity.

Two things I'll do.
If there is a need and they are really requiring it, like for withdrawal or deposit -- Yes, but this is rarely happening.
But if that is just information collection from them, since I wouldn't know. I won't expose my details through web -- No.

This is a good topic question.

For me, I would not do it. That would mean that my profile will be ultimately linked to my gambling account which I want to be completely anonymous. I want to separate my online life with my real one, not because I want to do anything scammy, but more on I don't want people prying with the shit I do online. I have a different persona online than my real one.

There is no need to use our personal id's to login in gambling sites, and we can login with our secondary ID. Yup to do gamble create one ID and do all gambling active with that ID. Why simply use your personal ID. I am doing like this I created few ID's to register in all gambling sites. I don't like to see this gambling news in my personal emails and don't like to expose my gambling activity with my friends. 

But some gambling websites ask for verified facebook accounts linked to contact numbers of the user and ask for a profile pictue too. Especially linkedn profiles are asked for by these sites and some even ask for ID proof so that users below 18 years are not using their websites. Anonymous sites are mostly that use bitcoins and they barely ask you to login through social sites. If we link our social sites, they may even post through them and send ads which makes it spammy.

I probably wouldn't. Simply because there is no reason to do that when most of bitcoin gambling sites don't even require you to have account. None of them asks for ID or for your name, so why i should reveal it?

Even if they would give option to log in like this, i don't think anyone would do that, they would log in using email/password way.

Logging in with Twitter or Google does not mean that you are no longer anonymous. You can also create a Twitter or Google Account with Tor or VPN. And if you do not provide any personal real data there, you are largely anonymous and can thus the log to gambling sites, too. Most people use a Gmail address to register on those sites anyway.

I wouldn't use it too... Makes no difference. I like to create accounts in casino sites and I have no problem by giving an email, if I don't want to use my personal email I can use an alternative email, the same with the account name, you don't need to write your name there, just your nick.

You can continue anonymous signing up with email or these other accounts (Twitter, Google, Facebook...). I don't know if everyone thinks the same, but if the casinos feel they need to give more sign up options to users, they could implement this.

More players prefer to use bitcoin instead of fiat due to the anonymity and privacy oneself can enjoy. And I don't want relatives or colleagues to learn that I am gambling. Why should they know?

I agree i have barely seen any site which allows it's users to login using social media and i already am pretty sure that most of the gambling site owners are aware that most of it's users will surely not be willing to share their personal info indirectly

No, I prefer to have privacy when I'm gambling. I do not like having my social media connections knowing what I'm doing online, especially when it comes to gambling. But if a site requires this as a compulsory action to use the site, I would probably just create a new social media account just for gambling at that site.

I think no, i mean they will know my identity. I'm using bitcoin for gambling because the anonymously, so i prefer make a simple account on that gambling site and that's it. I think most bitcoin gambling sites don't have that option, login via twitter, google or other social media accounts.

it does not seem necessary because many gamblers want to hide their identity while gambling. in my country gambling is illegal so it would be better to create an account on the gambling site anonym. but if the gambler likes that option because there's no need to create an account on that site which is time consuming and just needs to connect it to a social media account it's good too.

Having social media links can be a good decision if your in a country that gambling is legal and you wanted also to shared gambling experience,though now just having an email registered once would be enough, peiple now wants to make their self anonymous same with any transactions made in crypto it will be a lot better to do gambling unknown especially if we are not allowed to engaged in any gambling activities it might be due to your residency,culture or religion.

Very few does this. I haven't used any of my IDs to generate a account in gambling websites. This is not just because of the identity loss, if they make the identity is a must I'll provide. Because I wish to be a part of the gambling network. But sometimes legal issues arise, which might trouble us high, for which I avoid using the personal IDs.

Most of the people like to gamble witha hidden identity, that is the reason why bitcoin gambling is so famous, there will be no one want to link their account to any social media where the friends and families could see gambling, so no gambler will want to log in using their social media account

I haven't seen gambling websites that use a social media account to log in and store some of your information there, it's like why are you going to do that, especially if you are being anonymous and the gambling site uses bitcoins. I know there are gambling sites that use Steam, and I think that's okay because steam is widely used and technically, you are playing.

I don't usually notice gambling websites doing that type of login system as well. if they begin to use that then I think that they would go out of business since there wouldn't be that many people using the website due to that login thing. Why should they use that when they could use a different website while remaining anon?

i think bitkong offers this feature , so you don't need to put your email there but a social media instead , i just think it's not a good idea unless you log in from a fake account which make it all useless right? there's no good benefit on using social media. i believe people wouldn't want this feature , it's not really necessary.

Yes, that's the only way to save your details/account on bitkong. i think they'll change that in version 2. i find it unnecessary too, i wouldn't want a gambling site to know/have basic information of me.

Yes, i think they should offer this, it would make things much easier and we could avoid unnecessary signing up on new sites just to check them. It is not so damn hard to create few accounts on facebook and use them for gambling log in if such exists on gambling sites. Just make sure to separate your private facebook account from your "business" one.

Yeah you're right. You can make dummy accounts for such purposes and no need to disclose any personal information that can compromise your security. And i don't think there are that many gambling sites that would require logging in with social media accounts anyways but if a site you really prefer does this, then just make a dummy account

and AFAIK there's no single bitcoin gambling site anymore require a social media to login/create an account. if then that kind site still exist and survive with its feature i don't think people would comfortable with it and would prefer looking for another site which offering better option and easier way to get started.

Now all gambling sites are updated they will not ask any our email id or another thing to log on their website just enter your username and submit you will get into the website. Inside if you want you can provide your email id or else, it is not mandatory to update our personal id in gambling site. And sharing our personal contact details in gambling site is not safe. Better you can use alternative contact details.

Yeah, in this way, bitcoin online gambling are doing a great part to promote that's type of gambling where they don't need any personal information and i think it is good for those gamblers like me, who don't like to show to others. Also i can guess gamblers don't want to play gambling with social media account. One more reason is here to avoid play in social media account and that is if we want to earn bitcoin or play gambling with bitcoin then we should come in this place bitcoin online gambling.

As for me I will not login to a gambling site with my social media accounts. I don't want to take risk of some of people, like a boss perhaps seeing me doing gambling. I'm not ashamed gambling, but sometimes you need to protect yourself. That is why maybe most of gambling sites don't want to put this option to their site. And besides, bitcoin gambling is anonymous so let us just leave it like that.

I don't really mind that they offer this, as long as it's not the only option for creating an account on their website.
I'd even use it, I have some social media accounts that are not tied to my real name, so in that sense I wouldn't lose anonymity per se.

It's also pretty handy to not have to remember different log-in info, my password manager on my browser acts up sometimes, especially on Firefox.

I am prefer to not linked my social media account with gambling sites
My social media account is only to interaction with my friend and family

some people create social media with fake information to avoid hacking etc.
so for those people who did it i think it won't be a big deal to link their social media account to their gambling account.
but yeaaa there's no urgency to do that bs thing .

yeah i don't want to linked too because my social media is only for me and my friends and for promoting something. i think its better if we have another social media account to linked with the gambling site or we don't have to linked at all. because if we are linked our social media, sometimes we are promoting the links that is not good for our children if they see this.

that's it even you linked your account you can still create fake one and use it in order play the game better to make some adjustment knowing how the site rules
as far as I know I will be prefer not to use anything if it in terms of bitcoin gambling . even social account should be taking place since the system of anonymity is the purpose of bitcoin.

For me it's a no because we all know that some sites or gambling sites are not legit or they didn't even give you some money they just get all of your money and worst your information too in order to blacmailed you to use it in bad way. So be careful guys. Many sites are not reliable and I told you I am one of th victim of those sites.

Yepp. Most of the gamblers are like to hide their identity for future purposes and as we can see all people are using other username such as name of idols, pets or cartoon character because they do not wanto get accessed by other people especially the bad ones who will likely to scammed.

Of course I will never log in with a facebook or Google account, they already know enough about you and you are planning to give to them even more information, even if it is cumbersome it is way better to maintain all of your accounts separate from each other.

Absoutely no. First what if your social media account get hacked and you still have betting amount left or all your winnings are there? That is more risky than betting. I know many huge gamblers want to stay anonymous so me too.

People specially gamblers do really like to remain anonymous specially on this field and they dont really like to expose themselves and as you said more on those who have plans on scamming someone. Leaving without trace would be the first priority here but well we are not talking about scammers but hiding identity here on playing gambling. Having an option on doing log-in on social media isnt bad at all if the site will put up a kind of logged-in but im really sure that no one would really uses that stuff.

Firstly, it would be none of the above as gamblers would like to have their identity hidden for their own purposes. Social media accounts have a tendency to get hacked and a lot of personal information can be used against you and can be used in a myriad of ways that shouts confidientiality. Gambling sites that asks for login crdentials such as this are a no no to most gamblers

popular online gambling casino doesnt need or doesn't have this option to be able to login, mostly it was just a email for confirmation and you'll just need to provide username and that's it. No more identifiers.

Most website that are requiring social media log-in are scammed and others are for advertisement facebook page like of their website so that gamblers would know that many people like this website and eventually it will looks legit.

Nope, if that was the case, I would consider it as a breach of my privacy. When it comes to gambling I always prefer to stay anonymous because I don't trust many of these sites easily due to the fact that they may share my information with third-parties which is an absolute NO for me. But one good thing about loging in with a twitter, facebook, google ID is that our passwords stay secure. The gambling sites just use Oauth information to log us in thus eliminating the need for storing passwords.

No, I would definitely not login to any gambling site with my social media account, that is one of the main reason bitcoin gambling sites exist, the ability to gamble behind closed doors without letting anyone know your real identity, I prefer the gambling site that allows me to create a username and login with that method, and leaving the option of inputting an email non-mandatory.

I dont know about this yet I didnt search yet but based on what Im experiencing now that I am log in to a gambling site with twiter google on facebook I can easily get into a earning and profirable world.That trough this online job I can earn and save for the furure.If this kind of work gives life to people everyone will acknowledge it.

Can you name the site that do have this kind of log-in? The word scammed isnt approriate on what you describe here but its somehow stealing email addresses for the sake of marketing and this is really the disadvantage on having this kind of log-ins because your email would be added on the list used on email marketing which is really irritating when i saw one in my inbox regarding promotions.

If i were to choose, id rather not log in to gambling site than to link my social media account in the gambling site, because here in cryptocurrency we also value or identity so we must be careful enough to log in our social media account. If ever i encounter site like them most likely ill just ignore them or use dummy accounts to ensure the secrecy of my personality

I wouldn't mind logging into a gambling site if it were based in USD.

If it were a crypto based gambling site, I probably wouldn't use a social media login. Not with Senate Bill 1241 proposed which could grant the US government the power to seize crypto without just cause or checks/balances.

If I am to use an alt social-media account, sure. But to use your real account is just something very unusual,(for me). I accept the fact that I am a gambler and there is nothing to be ashamed for it, but there isn't anything to be proud of neither.

Nope i don't preffered to use any of my social media account they will get your token nor they will hacked your account because of the token my friend also create like this one and he can hacked facebook and use it into another way of earning referral that needs facebook account so NO i always prefer to create a new account to start business.

Indeed, goverments have too much power.
We know for a fact we've been spied on from our TVs, cellphones, that not only Viber and Facebook but even Signal was breached

I always avoid using social media logins, but a lot of times, you're in a hurry, and it's a quick way in, unfortunately..

Personally I wouldn't. This would mean that one of my requirements from a gambling site is anonymity. If I would be using my own social media profile, that would mean I am in direct violation of my requirements for a gambling site. This would mean I am directly doxing myself in the gambling site.

i'm not linking or connecting my social media account in a gamblign site because they could get the token id for that so you need to allow it first on your fb to access your account to be created in their site and it's not healthy because they have an access to your account using your account token . they can't get your password and email or username but they can get your access token.

If confidentiality becomes our concern, we can create a new social media account for gambling purposes if a gambling site requires us to do so. But of course, such gambling site should offer something different, more interesting, than the sites that already exist.

I will never use any social media login feature to gambling sites, NEVER. You had already the chance to play and gamble in an anonymous way, why dump it?
I'd rather go with the process of registration than letting other people that I gamble on that site. Even with agreed terms that all information will be secured, I will still not go that way.
There is a saying "better be safe than sorry"  ;)

We dont know if there would be risk on connecting your personal accounts on gambling sites but yes, it is way much good if you make your profile more private than giving it to a site where they can actually investigate about your identity.

Yeah, to be honest I would even doubt gambling in a casino with that option since we know facebook and Google are in bed with the governments and do not have the best interest of the people at heart, they only care about themselves and their own business.

Doesn't make sense to make it mandatory to login using facebook or twitter in a gambling site. That sounds fishy to me. But if I badly want to try out a gambling site I might consider making up a fake twitter , google or even a facebook ID. Will never you my real one!

Agreed with you it doesn't make any sense to account our personal social media account to gambling sites which could be risky and person can access to our profile easily. I never used my social media account to any gambling sites always use my email account and password to get access.

I think you're right, one reason why some of us preferred online betting was to protect our privacy and stay anonymous but if it do happens that we ought to login with our social media credentials who's going to use the real one? We'll make fake social media accounts for gambling.

Yeah it seems some people don’t understand the reasons for people to gamble with bitcoin, many of those that gamble with bitcoin do so in an attempt to remain anonymous, I have seen some traditional online casinos trying to accept bitcoin but then they will ask for all kind of details about who you are, so I’m willing to bet that they do not get a lot of customers due to their policies.

I think providing your social media account in order to sign up in a bitcoin casino defeats the purpose of using bitcoin to maintain being anonymous.

If we can keep our identities secret, I think we'd better keep our identity a secret. We never know what will happen, what we do not want can happen. Problems with fellow gamblers can also happen, so better not log in using fb, twitter and others.

That's true, you will never know how much there are bad people that get identities of people and make them their own and acting as you are. Probably there is no hesitance on their views, probably. Knowing that they could easily get it, they would take advantage of it. I hope that everyone learns in a good way that it's better to be safe than sorry.

With so many instances of data being compromised these days, I think we are better off not signing up with our social media handles to avoid being stalked or identity thieves from getting on to us...the best solution is avoiding this route to access services

---

Most crypto gambling sites understand the anonymous concept that's why they don't have this enabled

yup i think its better to stay behind the wall as i don't want other people know my real identity and if that site really need me to fill my social media, i think i will make new one fake to use for register. but i think there is many sites that is not require us to fill our social media to join with them so we can register with other site.

I will always prefer to gamble without any information to be given from the gambling site. Even my facebook or social media account isn't that open for them to know. But if there's a need I'll just go look for some other gambling sites that doesn't allow registration and even connecting to any social media platform just to gamble.

I am only active in Facebook and it's fine with me to login it to gambling site but since I don't often visit a lot of gambling site so I don't remember using it as a log in.

a logic answer,if we have social media account and we have no important files or photo there,its okay to use it for gambling,login with social media is simple way for us,but i am sure not many people use this,because gambler like to hidden their personal life,or personal identity. and i'm kind of people that pretend my privacy for public.

Yeah even i would feel something weird about the site as to why it is compulsory to sign in with social media as it has most of my personal details which i wouldn't like anyone else to know about. If anyone does come across a site with compulsory login with social media don't login blindly check few reviews first or make a temporary account to sign up

No, not a chance. Everything re: bitcoin stays anonymous for me. I don't want anybody having a chance to hack me or discover my identity/personal details.

Exactly, many of us gamble with Bitcoin and other cryptocurrencies because it offers us some amount of anonymity that fiat gambling doesn't and so integrating social media into gambling will expose our identity and perhaps gives hackers the chance to attack us .

I always like old method. email + password. I do not like auth with social media accounts

Really better to create an account with username and an email only to gamble.
Rather than have to feel complicated we should create a social media first to login later to the site.
There's no reasonable benefit we can get on doing thi righ? Just tell me if anyone have an idea why we should do it.

If you are hidden gambler and don't like to show your friends or family members about your gambling activity, then use a dummy account to login gambling sites. Why we need to use dummy account means once you log in with any account in your account you will start to receive notification about that gambling site. And some sites will tag you and send some notification to avoid this kind of issues you need to use dummy account. Apart from this, there is no any major reason.

That's right. It really doesn't matter since its really easy to create dummy social media accounts for specific purposes such as these. And i'm not sharing any private information in my real facebook accy anyways. If i like a gambling site and it comes to it that they'll require social media log ins, then no problem

I will ;like to login without any of those social accounts so that my friends will not know that am gambling. And for private reasons

I could understand that you mean you play with bitcoin online gambling, because in this way, we have no need to tell our personal information that's why your friends don't know that you are gamble or not, and believe me i am also one of them. I play gambling with bitcoin, because it give us safest and hidden our personally that people don't know about us that we are gambler or not.

Many people gamble with bitcoin to remain anonymous and protect their personal privacy so  I don't think anybody will be willing to login with their social media accounts rather than going through 1 minute registration process. Also these days many bitcoin gambling platform creates anonymous account instantly when you visit them that can save lots of time and if you want to make deposit than just edit your profile and password and you are good to go.

Many gambling sites are operating without governments permission, and are either illegal or in the gray area, so players usually try to preserve their anonymity. So, logging in via social networks is the direct opposite of this and should be avoided. Also, your profile information from social networks can be used by hackers in their social engineering attacks, you can find many stories how people got their exchange accounts hacked because of this. Cryptocurrencies gave us tools to reach anonymity, and we shouldn't neglect it.

I haven't seen any gambling platform these days having option of login through social media accounts because who want to give away all their personal details to an unknown guy/platform over the internet. I will never expose myself while gambling..

I think are a couple of sites that require logging in to social media sites to have access to certain features and bonuses though i haven't yet seen any that requires that to log in to the acct itself. And i also wouldn't spare any time in those sites as there are a lot of gambling sites that are more secure and established without requiring such access to your personal accounts. Just move on to another site if you're not comfortable linking your social media accounts in a gambling site

Yeah right, I also would not spend time on sites like that, the risk is very high. There are many sites that are better and safer without linking to social media accounts. I really appreciate my privacy when gambling for security reasons my identity, so I will not do that. True as you say, it's better to switch to another gambling site if it is required to link a social media account to a gambling site.

No ways. Most of the reason people use Bitcoin is to avoid this. That's like going backwards. Then you let everyone on fb know you gamble or on Google or whatever. What if you looking for work and your boss sees it and judges you for it ? Maybe to them it's as bad as finding you a drug addict. Bitcoin prevents this judgement. I don't think fb would allow this anyway.
