Bitcoin and casinos

[RivAngE]

It'd take ages of moving winnings between game rounds if players would use their personal wallets to play in real life.
So maybe the only way would be to "deposit" your BTC in the casino's entrance and receive the classic casino chips again. So there won't be any difference between using BTC or not... it's up to the casino to accept this kind of alternative payment.

I think there could be some sort of digital "card" that would allow people to play and shows how much they have left. Either the card itself could be digital enough to show how much balance it has and can be used or card could be regular card but the casino could have things that you can go plug the card in and check how much there is left. I think that is literally a better option than chips as well, why they are still using chips I would never know but just guess.

My guess is that they are just an iconic thing, like you hold a ton of chips in your hands and it makes you feel better, you put them forward and so forth, it is just what people think when they think about casinos, that is why they are not removing chips but in reality it is really possible to make it better with technology.

If a casino have digital cards then it could help people to check their balance as you what you have explained but the casino card can be used both in digital and regular card. My point about the casino card is you will swipe the in then you'll be able to know your balance and type the card number on the site then it will show your balance without making you log in to the website for security measures.

There was about 2 years ago a post/thread here on bitcointalk on this. One of the users has found in Las Vegas a casino that was (also) accepting Bitcoin.

Since then there are probably many more.

I've found a reddit link on the same subject: https://www.reddit.com/r/Bitcoin/comments/6zyph0/you_can_use_bitcoin_at_casinos_in_vegas/

That's off line casino that accepts the use of bitcoin to play?  I haven't know of any within my residence however it was long coming. In between is bitcoin do very well more in the gambling aspect than every other aspect

[sweetbet]

Licensed and regulated land casinos accepting Bitcoin? That would be nice and a lot safer than walking into or out of a casino with a wallet or purse full of cash.

I have worked for a few years in a casino and I couldn't help but imagine that people should be able to gamble with bitcoin.

Is it already happening? - I don't mean on the internet

And do you think this will be future of casinos?

Not possible casinos all online casinos is using crypto currency because of the people's choice's, one of the reason choosing crypto online casinos is the anonymity of thegablers they can hide our identity to the public bieng a gambler.

I think it will be the future of casino since most of casinos in my country are using card for you to be able machine games. However it's not applicable to all casino games such as poker, Blackjack, and others since people will prefer chips for that of course. Sooner it could be implemented since it will give convenience for both gambler and the owner to use Bitcoin as currency for casino.

[sunsilk]

What if we're already going to that age? everything will be cashless and bitcoin will be one of the most preferred currency of each gambler. Like, you're going to gamble to a physical casino without bringing any cash or card but you have your smartphone.

And on that phone, you have either your bitcoin wallet or any other accepted altcoin wallet that contains your bankroll. As you gamble, each of the machines will show a QR code which you will simply just scan it through your wallet to deposit an amount or be able to play.

[Ailmand]

I think that it would be great if there would be a real life casino where you have an option to ganble with your bitcoin. Not aware if there is one already. I bet there would be a lot of online casino gambler who would like to try it, playing real life casino games playig with other players using their crypto.

Perhaps, that is available in some country which accepts bitcoin as a currency so it can apply too as the payment in the gambling. If in Vegas accepting bitcoin, people will be knowledgeable and aware, and they will use bitcoin for the bet. If bitcoin can be popular in there, I think bitcoin will not only use in gambling but also used in many things as the new payment method.

When bitcoin is accepted as a new payment system, bitcoin can reach many people in that country/city so it will have a chance to be a payment option. All in all, it is good news to see bitcoin can be accepted in an offline gambling place. There will be many other gambling places that will do the same. And that means cryptocurrency will be popular in real life.

I think for offline casinos, will be very weird if still use digital currency to play. I mean it is used to play and not like casino which accept cryptocurrency to swap for a chip to play in that casino. Because it will almost like public internet things that people do gambling with bitcoin and other cryptoccurencies.

[Ararbermas]

It's impossible to happen in real casino since they all used a chips/token on their machine and etc wherein to able to gamble. But for me probably  there's a possibility that only cashier accepting bitcoin instead of the dollar ,because you know bitcoin nowadays are acceptable in different ways even in some fast food.  So in my view probably there's a possibility they convert bitcoin into chipz or token as well for all players who want to play using bitcoin on their casino.

It's not yet happening in real life casino right now but there are so many online casino accepting bitcoin. In my opinion it's possible for casino to accept bitcoin in the future maybe in the next 3-5 years, once bitcoin become mainstream and used by all companies, i'm sure casino will accept it too.

Its not that impossible, if a certain casino would implement a system that lets gamblers register an account and put some Bitcoins in it. Then they will just going to input the account number as well as the password into the machine to proceed to gambling.
Thats the very least idea I could think, since risking your own wallet in any gambling will place isnt worth it. So, why not make their own database inside the casino.

Since you state that one can pay for chips or tokens with Bitcoin or fiat currencies, the impossiblity there is been erased.
So therefore, betting offline with Bitcoin is very much possible and can be practised in any offline casinos, cause its more like paying with it like the other currency.
The one thing that any casino owner, who wants to implement the use of BTC in his casino should look out for is if Bitcoin is legal in the country where is is sited. And also obeying all regulations abiding with it to avoid sanctions.

That's right, buying chips in the casino through Bitcoin using online transaction is possible. So if the casino will implement this kind of payment, then betting with Bitcoin through traditional casino could be a reality. The question is, does the casinos will take this gamble of having a volatile means of selling their chips?

Actually its already happening where Las vegas casinos do accept Bitcoin as been part of their payment system but sadly you can directly use up bitcoin but still a good adoption though.

About on casinos measure towards the volatility of crypto then who knows but for sure they are pretty aware with that.

And I believe at this time many gambler casino out there who play casino through their own credit card, it is not the time to take a lot of money in our purse. Most people right now will use to buy everything through their phone or use their credit card because it is very easy to use compared to take a purse. Yeah, sooner or later when people know bitcoin and they are not believe that bitcoin is not dangerous tool, they will use it or use some altcoin who have high anonymity such as monero.

Moreover, for those who knows the casino online which many popping up so far then bitcoin is the most currency who will be use by most gambler. Even, online casino will be an alternative way for them to choose and they will pay it at anytime and wherever they are. It could be the utilization of cryptocurrencies especially bitcoin will be more used as gambling tool be compared to be use as payment system or as trading tool.

In the near future, I think they will adapt bitcoin and other cryptocurrency since the industry is continually expanding. In LA, there are already casinos that have integrated bitcoin and became quite a popular trend with the casinos near that one. I do hope that their numbers will increase further and not just casinos, even hotels are starting to accept cryptocurrencies too.

Truth be told, I've never been to a real casino

Really mate?if it’s Ok may I know how older you?because if you’re teen or below 18 then I can consider that you are not allowed in a real casino 😂😂.or not unless you are living in places that gambling is prohibited so there’s no chance that you can enter because there is no existing

But if those I mentioned wasn’t indeed then there’s something unique here ,being a man/woman at the right age that don’t ever enter a real casino


To the topic?i wish there will be one in my country so I don’t need to bring fiats every time I need to gamble because my mobile is enough to sustain my betting needs
