Actually they are already together, you are late mate, one of the reasons on the success of bitcoins is because of the biggest support coming for the gambling industry, if you notice you can find a lot of online gambling sites nowadays accepting bitcoins.

I've made quite some posts and read even more threads. Which made me think about the combination of Bitcoin and Gambling.

Is it ok to gamble with bitcoin? Last year we've seen a lot of scams and 'hacks'. Fact is that most of them are either made up by the devs or done by scammers whom use bitcoin's anonimity.

Pro
Let's be honest, Gambling is fun, but Bitcoin it is also very easy?

Con
Look at some dice sites, cloud mining sites that ust dissapeared with consumers money.

Since it is about money I am interested in your opintion, Is the combination of gambling and Bitcoin good?

I agree with the Pros that yeah bitcoin is very simple to gamble with but I do not agree with Cons because you can easily avoid that by playing at most reputed and trusted sites like primedice and bitdice ...

in my country bitcoin usage is illegale and the gouvernement don't accept bitcoin.
but gambling is so fun and for using bitcoin have it own charme :p .
so i don't know why they don't accept it.

You live in Tunisia? I are you sure that Bitcoin is banned in your country, because I can't find any information about legal status in Tunis.
Maybe you are talking about online bitcoin (or FIAT) casinos being banned and not bitcoin itself?

Online gambling is getting more popular and that is because the world is also getting more digital and that is perfect for the gambling and for Bitcoin itself.
Bitcoin is online money and that works well with gambling because it is easy to use as a payment method so that is really nice for the online gambling and later in the future.

Its not really banned, like in India suppose, bitcoin is not illegal, while gambling ( not just btc but any sort of gambling ) is illegal.
Now you see how funny are the rules : Skill based gambling sites are ALLOWED in India, is not this just funny ?

[prtty2gal2]

gambling and bitcoin a good combination, this will be the future. because the use of bitcoin easier to use gambling.

honest gambling with bitcoin very pleasant, especially bitcoin is not so hard to obtain.

But still I think that bitcoin gambling is not exploding as it should. The reason I am not sure but seems because of the shit restrictions in most of the countries and the innocent people following it like god.

That is funny. Bitcoin is legal here too and gambling is illegal unless it is the government gambling places. Only the government is allowed to be profit from gambling.

That's unfair and that is because they are corrupt, with the help of bitcoins now we can gamble anytime at any online website we want, I think the government cannot control it as websites sometimes operates without license and due to bitcoins is anonymous it will be hard for them to trace the money movements. In addition gamblers are also anonymous so its just a business of trust for both.

Bitcoin has made it extremely easy for people to access gambling. Of course this is a bad thing and a good thing. It can help casinos to generate more profit with a smaller investment, but it also makes more people addicted to gambling.

Gambling is bad and you should view it as entertainment. Never bet what you can't afford to lose.

Look at some dice sites, cloud mining sites that ust dissapeared with consumers money.

Preferably avoid gambling, if someone couldn't resist then better use well-established sites, since you mentioned dice sites we all know at least 2-3 famous sites (no need to advertise it here).

Personally I like what I read in the gambling section when i visit its topics:

Warning: You are in the Gambling section. You are likely to eventually lose any money that you gamble/"invest". Additionally, moderators do not remove likely scams. You must use your own brain: caveat emptor. Do not gamble more than you can afford to lose.

Can we expect new people whom bought bitcoin to read that? Sure you should read the bylines. But's let be honest. The default template of SMF is one of the most ugly one. In this history of SMF no other big site uses this template...

BTW why should we indulge it? If we are the bitcoin supporters, if we support bitcoin, wouldn't that make new people our.. family?

Would you say to a family member.. Yeah let's do it. Buy some coins and go to bitcointalk to spend it...
Or would you protect them. Don't just invest into bitcointalk.org better yet avoid it, there are too many scams there...?

only stupid people are gambling with bitcoins the whole idea of the bitcoin is investing and you guys only want to lose your coins in a gamble. I dont think you all understand the reason why bitcoin came but there are allot who dont know.

The combination of Bitcoin and gambling is a great thing because it attracts people to both platforms. The fact that you can now use bitcoin at so many gambling sites is a accomplished that needs to be recognized.

Gambling and betting has different mode of medium.  It so happens that in the bitcoin industry using the latest state of the art technology, we have to find any possible means to address the needs of personas who want's to practice or exercise  their habitual betting and hobbies.  We are not in the position to decide for them since almost players or gamer's are above the minor age.  In the past when gambling was not yet online to gamble means to have a spare time to do it.  You only don't spend money but you wasted time also.  So this is what makes it different these days you can double your money in doing investments and work at the same time enjoying your past time hobbies.

I agree, but for me what really makes bitcoins succeed is because they are back by the gambling industry. With bitcoins gambling made easy, you can gamble anonymously and that's what most of the gamblers are looking.

That's why they are just gamble anonymously because some country gambling is illegal so they are found the best place where they can still gamble without going to other country to gamble their money.. that's why gambling and bitcoin is born for people can't gamble because of restriction in their places.

it really right, I myself that previously did not play gambling, but after getting to know bitcoin, I like to play gambling. and it's really easy to do with bitcoin, because I've tried with other currencies, it's really complicated, sometimes we have to verify the data.

It is good in the sense of gamblers can play at home and don't need to go to casinos to play their favorite games like slots,poker, blackjack, etc. They only need internet, bitcoins, and cellphone or computer to gamble. They can play all day they want. Plus people who can't afford to build casinos can learn some programming in the internet and build their own gambling site.

Sometimes I feel bitcoins are becoming popular as they can be used on gambling sites easily unlike fiat cash that can become an issue later on. However, bitcoins are not viewed as a legal currency due to this and since I don't gamble, I don't wish to be associated with such websites which are too risky.

Well, with bitcoins you have the best advantage that you are not known by real name, while if you make account on sites like bet365 you will have to give them whole verification and ID's as per their so called KYC terms. Bitcoins means always freedom, a gambler always looking for.
