Is anonymous betting a desired feature?

[jhonjhon]

I think most gamblers would see no registration bets as a plus to a betting site because most of them wants to gamble anonymously and they find KYC very hassle. In my opinion it is better for your site to have verification just to safeguard your site from scammers.

We like comfort when we are betting, and at the same time we also like to be in the safe side, so not connection with our real info in a certain site, that would make us safer.

Offcourse who would want to disclose his information on a gambling site?

Yeah, that's why we keep looking for a gambling site who doesn't ask for KYC because we want to play anonymously and we also want to bet on this kind of system. I think many gambling site are already have this feature because they know that cryptocurrency is made for a decentralized market and that's why they respect the privacy of every gambler, this is a must for a crypto gambling site.

On the contrary, not all casino sites understand this, in short its even becoming tougher by the day with the compulsory filling of KYC form on some highly rated casino sites, there are some that wouldn’t request it at registration but at withdrawal, especially when it involves a big win.

This is against what crypt campaign and I stand against it, for me, it’s an initial turn off when I see a site with KYC requirement and it’s even more heartbreaking  when it happens after playing and towards withdrawal. I truly hope this is looked into and corrected soonest as this might drastically drop the number of online casino players.

Just imagine there are whales or high roller do you think they would use a site that would giveaway their real information?
Just imagine a site that would use your real name when you are chatting and when other players view your profile it would show your personal details such as your name and other stuff .
Do you think that they would continue to use knowing that some people would target them in real life?
Anonymity in gambling is what we are looking for and for that reason we are avoiding a gambling site with a KYC to know that our personal data isn't required and we could play safely.

Honestly bro, it makes no sense at all to me and this is the very reason why I avoid KYC as plague, what differentiates it from traditional gambling. For me, I would never play games on KYC site while I risk my information been exposed to a third party.

I have one policy never to fill a KYC on any gambling site, because I always had fear and especially the fact that those sites cannot be trusted, it stands a chance of being hacked and it will be very risky.  Well I understand there are so many people who see nothing wrong with KYC, different people to what they belief and their choices, so its always individual differences.

Well have to understand how important to keep anonymous in gambling as keeping our self secured from any vulnerability of scamming activities or using our personal identity to manipulated others. This is what we worried about, that is why mostly all gamblers skip those sites that require KYC upon registration. Well for me, I'll keep anonymous all the time.

[SirLancelot]

I'm working on a football (soccer) betting site, and I'd like to know if it is worth the effort to add the feature to allow no-registration bets. Has it ever been a deciding factor when you pick a site to bet on?

I will really be in full support of you to built such a fantastic application as long as we can avoid KYC

Frankly speaking, if the op can really succeed in building such anonymous betting site which is what many people has been craving for, he will really be able to drive lots of traffic to his game site. Although I still do not know how the op will be able to manage this, and how he will be able to identify a winner without having any details about him.

I think little registration would not be bad such as nickname even if it is not full name and then maybe password. Imagine someone having challenge in using the site and he needs to contact the customer care for support, without a proper identification that will link him to his account, how would they know how to resolve such issue?

The question I have now is “Do you think the OP would ever be successful with this project’’ I understand that a lot of gamblers would choose to gamble on an anonymous betting site but at the same time there is a regulation governing gambling industry, and before a gambling site can be approved,, there are some rules the operator would need to adhere to, except the OP is willing to create a site that is without license and this is enough to also scare away intending gamblers.

For me I will advice the op creates a site with interesting features and also a secured site and forget making anonymity the most important priority. There will definitely be gamblers that will still play on the site Regardless.

Its truly important, anonymity is a crucial feature, many people don't like to expose themselves in gambling and anonymity could help the gambler from restricted country to play the game, and crypto gambling is famous because of its anonymity, so this feature is a must in crypto gambling

Yea, it’s really very important. Especially with the bad reputation on gambling, no gambler would be glad to be publicly known to be a gambler but instead would enjoy to play secretly why they can deny the game openly and another vital point is for the benefits of people gambling from countries where gambling is prohibited.

I have friends I have known from online casinos and most of them play from countries where gambling is illegal, they are able to do this by using a hidden vpn and am sure it’s truly helpful, I honestly think for as long as gambling remains, gamblers would always prefer to keep their identity undisclosed

It will be much better if you are not willing to provide such information, you can play with such comfort knowing that you can move along without any trace, just enjoy and safely move when you already have enough no obligations but to keep moving and enjoying around.

Right..
Gamblers are not required to register on physical casinos, (atleast where I live) i don't see why registering on online ones are necessary.
I understand the need to monitor people in public places but the current way of handling sensitive information is dangerous and primitive

I don’t think any gambler is interested in leaving a trace of their identity online, so I don’t blame you at all. The KYC regulation to me is absolute scab considering the agenda of Cryptocurrency. The essence of crypto is mainly for anonymity, so I do see any reason for KYC on casino sites.

I believing that exposing our identity online has the ability to turn us into victim of exploitation. I have heard so many reports of how some casinos site use the information of their players in bad faith. Too many shady activities like account hacking and impersonation and this is the main reason why I detest KYC and I do hope its eradicated soon.

But doing kyc will help the gambling sites to know who is dealing with. I think knowing or having that information is vital for us to identified scammers and those that want to win and use the gains to do criminal and criminality against the innocent in our society.

With or without registration would always be ideal for a gambler if he has the option for both of it. We want to gamble anonymously and you have to choose those casinos that doesn't require KYC before you gamble but there are casinos that will ask you for KYC when you are about to withdraw. They will halt your request and will ask you for that and when that happens, it will be a disappointing moment for you because you thought from the beginning that they don't ask for it.

Nobody wants to get their personal information all over the internet for playing a few bucks on a casino. Thats why they prefer not to use the sites that ask for KYC. Most cases that end up with demands of KYC are fraudulent activities on part of the player. Reputed sites here known well in the crypto world dont do this unless the source of money is a tainted one. They are allowed to enforce rules in such cases if required - thats on their TnC.

New sites that come up and in case they ask for KYC people are going to run away from them.

Hassle, so yeah.

I don't want to give my personal information to other people especially if it is a gambling site. That gambling site might be hacked and might be used to illegal purposes that might lead you to jail for years to an illegal crime that you did not even commit. Also, I just want to gamble anonymously so I just register and just roll in to gamble and roll out.

If there’s any reason why people like to keep their identity safe in gambling, I want to believe it should be more or less for safety, not because of whatsoever reputation reason you mentioned above. This has nothing to do with gambling because if the reputation of gambling was that bad, then we won’t be having more gamblers by the day

Please note that gambling secretly in a country where gambling is prohibited is still disobedience to the law. Its simple, if your country declares the game illegal, then stay off, there’s no point going through the back door to play. So I feel your friends are only taking a risk that is not worth taking at all.

May i know what kind of crime that could harm us if they did use our KYC illegally? Even in ICO which ask for KYC, i think it is not safe as they might sell our documents to the black market how much more on gambling site where everything is for gamble.

The crime could be: Your identities will be sold to ISIS terrorists to travel across the world and carry suicide bomb attacks. Passports, Visas, document forging are such crimes which can lead to unformidable circumstances. Your KYC should be safe with only companies which are in synch with the Government and are authorized to do so.

I voted the second option, it will make the site appealing there are people who wants this kind of features and a good options for gamblers to play anonymous, but when it comes to winning a large amount some gambling sites will ask for AML or KYC to make their site compliant, this is something a gambler should expect when he wins a huge amount.

I agree with you, not requiring any registration in land based casinos and, at the same time, requiring personal data on online registration doesn't make sense and also looks unfair. I would not be surprised if it turns out that these laws were lobbied by land based casinos, so that gamblers would prefer going to them. Also, it's a primitive way of catching criminals, if you ask me. If they wanted to launder their money, of course they would not provide their personal info to an online casino, but would go to a land based one instead.

Same, KYC should be prohibited when it comes to this kind of platforms especially when there's money involved. I will be always feel bothered when someone on the internet knew my personal information. 

If they will release huge money, I think papers and documents are needed on this transaction.
