Do any people gamble under the age of 18?

[Xenophoto]

For sure there are people below 18 years old who are gambling specially if it is Bitcoin online gambling because some site doesn't required you to specify your age, you just need to put username , password and email address in order to be registered.

Not only some sites but most or all bitcoin sites no need to mention you age to gamble there. Even some sites allow you to start gambling without even opening the account, so you just need a bitcoins to gamble. This is something not good, and many young people can play these online games.

Even so, I bet gambling sites have the Terms & Conditions which all of us don't read that includes agreeing that you're in a legal age. I don't need to check it anymore because I'm above 18 years of age. I think even those gambling sites that do not require registration have this as well. Even porn sites and all of other websites that require you to be 18 years old have this agreement that you're above 18 years old, you just didn't notice it. This is very important for their company to not do any unlawful acts.

Haha that terms and conditions that are applying by gambling sites and even those simply software we surely not reading it. I'm just thinking if there is an agreement that it will be beneficial to all of us if we will stop gambling but it seems reading is a lazy habit for many. Surely that there are minors who are enjoying to gamble with bitcoin gambling sites.

Everything you say is true, now it's a lot of kids under which gambling freely and without the knowledge of the parents. Because now they can easily do anything in your mobile phone or laptop and also their parents now rarely to monitor and look at the gestures or activities conducted by the kids. So this is something that is dangerous for our next generation in the future and should be done to be able to do something in pursuit of a good thing

And thats one of the drawback of technology or say civilization. Even now I am of the opinion that majority of players would be that age although not all. In the sense that from over here, people around that are mostly not doing anything in that they are through with high school and waiting to gain admission to higher institution this gives room to peruse the internet to the fullest and online gambling gives the platform compared to real gambling which could still be frowned at by the elders in the society.

[Taki]

Of course kids gamble. I don't see any gambling site that at least asks you to prove your age or something like this. When I was a kid we also gambled, played cards for some little money or played with chips with Pokemon pictures. All that is gambling. So I doubt that modern kids more different from us.

This is exactly the best age to gamble under 18, it is more challenging because we all do know that gambling under 18 is illegal and those kids who wanted to explore over the internet would really came across to this. This is a part of growing tho (some kids becomes mature and some don't)

[thejaytiesto]

Kids would love to gamble because in vegas they always look at the casino machines and are attracted to all the colors and stuff. When I was a kid I also wanted to gamble but I was not able to enter the machine room. In the future with bitcoin people of all ages will be able to gamble at home if they want to, but I would not let kids gamble until they are adult and make their own money. They must feel the risk of gambling with their own money otherwise they will not understand what this is about.

But the problem is terms and condition does not stop people who is under 18 of age.  This agreement is simply bypass by clicking I agree eventhough they are not 18 and above.  So Minors can still play in an online Casino especially when the currency use is Bitcoin.  This simply imply that bitcoin is encouraging minor to gamble because of the easy access to Online gambling site.

EDIT3: What is the best way to counter this problem without websites having to know your exact identity?

I think a proper education is the answer. Kids should know that they can earn money only applying their knowledge and skills and that it is very stupid to count on gambling as a source of income.

Also identity can be faked in the internet as we all know so that is not a way to restrain kids from gambling.

[Achargeturry78]

I don't see any problems coming to anyone who would gamble under the age of 18 because if they have sources like bitcoins, no one would ask for KYC information due to which even minors can gamble. In other types of sites where KYC is needed, I don't think they would let underaged to gamble.

Some gambling websites don't have age restriction everyone under 18 years of age are free to gamble that's why people are keep playing gambling and online gambling don't really ask information how we can know right?

This is true thats why minors could really freely play gambling since restrictions on gambling sites online are not too strict even they have some attention or warning message it still doesnt work since they could easily mark as checked then you are good to go. Registering anonymously and play anytime thats why we cant really say if theres no minor ages or does have really playing gambling on this ages.

It doesn't matter. Anyone can lie his own age for a gambling site to enter.
It's impossible to track all players to try discovering their age, and I think this a waste of time. If persons under 18 age want to play, no problem, they are playing with their money, we will waste many resources and time for nothing.
But if you ask me to suggest a minimum age to start betting, I mean 16 years is a good one.

There are minors that are already involve in gambling. Like here in our country, street children most of them are out of school youth who spend more of their time in that way that leads in addiction. So it is really a big problem.

It is bad and also sad thing, Your government should do something for solve this problem, Because every country's progress is depend on his youth, and youth are our assets, also parents should take care to their children. Than i think, this problem will be solved. 
But about the thread, where bitcoin promote the online gambling, than also it give us bad point to our teenagers, because in this way, they are playing gambling, even it is not a age to play gambling.

Government can only act fast if that certain gambling facilities are big enough and that can easily be indentified. If those gambling facilities are very neutral then it would really be that hard on their part(usually this happens in any place which you would not think that there is a game happening) Most of this kids also gambles to have fun

[ayesha98220]

don't underestimate the young kids cause there are some very smart kids out there and gambling is easy to understand at first glance

dice is a good example for a simple game

Just because a kid/adult is smart and understands gambling it doesn't mean they can or will win gambling lol

That's really a bad thing. Every country doesn't look same in these activities. Also as mentioned if addiction happens also in a short they will quit gambling. The reason is that dropouts mostly won't work smart but work hard. So they won't get time to concentrate on gambling continuously.

I agree that it could be dangerous for minors to develop an addiction to gambling at a young age, but I'm personally in favor of having less restrictions on gambling.

The ease of use is why I usually choose Bitcoin gambling over traditional online casinos.

I feel, there are still many children who are under the age of 18 years of gambling. I guess that happens for several reasons, such as promiscuity, and their parents who do not pay attention to it. Well, many of them also are using drugs. Well, I felt it could have a significant impact on their future.

A lot of people gamble in videogames, for example in the pokemon games of game boy when I was a kid I used to play Pokemon Blue and there was a casino inside the game, so you could go there and spend money in the slot machines and you would win random prices, that was the first gambling I ever did and I was only a kid. I remember I got tired of it because it was too hard to win big prices.
