I think this article exaggerates the benefits of decentralized casinos and doesn't speak about their risks. It also doesn't cover centralized cryptocurrency casinos, which is strange.

So, the problem with decentralized casinos is that they run on smart contracts, and smart contracts tend to be buggy. It's a way bigger risk for players than the risk of getting scammed by a decent centralized casino. Also, the profit model of 0% house edge isn't going to work in the long run. And let's not forget that all  these smart contract services require a good amount of scalability - otherwise users will have to pay a few dollars of network fees per bet.

Forget casinos, take a look at wagerr which is already doing decentralised sports betting via their wallet. Get wagerr at crex24 and do some anonymous betting on your favourite events like football etc..
