1 - The copycat epidemic within crypto casinos.

[South Park]

Sometimes the UI/UX is not the topmost priority of many.
It is what kind of reputation the site has among the gambling community.
Because the word of mouth is fast, if in case the site is guilty of delaying either deposits or withdrawals.
You can't escape from the criticism of the players when it comes to this aspect.
So better take care of this so as not to give bad impression to other players.

Yes, I totally agree with you, because like I earlier said, that I have no issue with copycat casinos , because what makes a casino stand to the test of time goes beyond a mere copycat casino, because there are several factors that could make a casino unique, trusted and reliable,  and they include, ability to enable fast deposit and withdrawer, good marketing plan and ability to update according go new threads and innovations

It is true that there is a lot more factors which make a casino successful than a unique user interface, also we need to understand that there is a limit to how you can arrange things for things to still make sense, you could create an unlimited number of user interfaces but they will be extremely complex and difficult to use, so the number of ways in which you can arrange the disposition of elements in a screen are limited and as such many casinos even if they do not want to will end up having a similar user interface.

There would be alterations so that it wouldnt be completely the same or similar which would people ending up on having bad impressions whenever they do see some copycat sites.Some sites do really tend

to copy at least most of popular or known platforms believing that they could get some users basing up with that kind of mindset which is really very wrong.It would rather create some bad vibes
or views because copying is never been a good thing for most people or the one who do able to see it.Complexity should be on that normal phase where people would find it not too technical.
This market is somehow saturated which owners do end up on copying.

Indeed, for many players, the entourage itself created on the online casino site is important, it's nice to look at the visually attractive effects that certainly attract players, especially if you are in doubt to start the game or leave. But for players whose main goal is not to enjoy gambling, but to benefit from the UI/UX game does not matter, the main thing is that it should be a reliable and proven online casino, so it seems to me.

[rodskee]

Yeah , almost each casinos has the same providers so I think it is normal to have similarities , but the issue in OP is about even the front page and the color themed is almost similar in which come to idea that it is a copycat though it is not prohibited.
but i will not bring big trust to those site that manage to copy other sites interface when they can only spend small amount to have their own , this proves them to be no funds or budget in running gambling business.

Many site will choose light and attractive design to get more gamblers, maybe this is just a coincidence and with regards to the games, there’s a few game provider and most of the site have the same provider and that’s why the games are almost the same. Competition is good, and if you have a gambling site you will always aim to be more creative and introduce new games, those who can innovate will have a better chance of staying in the market and get more gamblers.

I'm not sure if this is a coincidence because I believe that op of whom I am pointing is already admitted that He is using almost same theme from the copied site in which i will not need to mention.

when we can play in different themed site? why need to play In copy cat one? I find it odd to decide lol.

There is a casino that is relatively new, I don't remember what its name is and even though I registered it reminded me a lot of Duelbits, I checked and if they have Ann thread and everything was within good parameters, if you say that it is reliable then it would be interesting to continue watching that casino to see how it continues to develop, I have registered in many casinos but I do not keep a list, but as much as I can I would like to do it and write down all the things that are quite good and some that are not so good.

One of the good things may be to wait perhaps for the reviews of users who are specialists, for better or worse it is advisable to have several opinions.

[nakamura12]

I actually asked "Eddie" from Stake.com during his weekly stream about the "friend" that opened a very similar casino to Stake.com and he said "not that I recall" ....but he also said that they are not too worried about sites copying their concept and that it was actually flattering that other people were doing this. (I guess, if you are printing money like them, you would not mind a lot if people copied you)

There are not a lot of big casino software developers out there, so I figure some people just buy a white label casino template from these guys and they just change the color scheme a little to fire up a new casino.  

If I also run casino online then I wouldn't mine copying the template or UI of my casino and made some changes so it won't be the same it won't become an exact copy of the website design from the original casino but rather focus on other important things to do like making sure that the site is safe with good security measures, finding bugs/issues, having a good customer support if someone is having an issue and most of all, solving the problems as fast as possible not that I don't care about the design. In short, customer's satisfaction first since house edge always win. That's my opinion about it.

Many gamblers didn’t focus much on the theme or design of the site, they are too focus about the game being provided and they just really want to have fun regardless if the site just copied the theme from other site. Beside, they all have the same game provider, so the only concern here is the fairness of the site and it’s security requirements.

Most crypto gambling platforms offer the same games right now, so what does make each of them original? It's simply the style, the design, the scheme of colors, the logo. Maybe it's hard for some developers to be original trying to be original, but if they try to be creative instead, they are going to reach the desired goal easier and smoother, because ideas will flow naturally.
It's normal to copy some concepts from already existing gambling websites. Developers just need to take those concepts and use their imagination to inspire themselves in order to improve the final product even more.

there is nothing wrong if they are having similarities because it is normal as there are hundreds or thousands if not million gambling site created since the online gambling starter , but at least they have big differences and not almost a like , because if that so then that is the clear calling of being copy cat and that is the question thrown by this thread as this is literally something to be questioned specially in budgeting in which maybe that said casino is having no budget to start business so how would a gambler trust them with their money?

and this will affect your desire in depositing or playing once you noticed a complete similarities in other sites that you use to play or visit because this lowered their trust from you as bettor .

But for players whose main goal is not to enjoy gambling, but to benefit from the UI/UX game does not matter, the main thing is that it should be a reliable and proven online casino, so it seems to me.

then this will not take place in this part because I believe that we are talking about newly created casino here that still in question about copy cat, because if trust and legitimacy is the main objective then we will be talking about old and reputable casinos .

That's for sure!  Even well-known games or slot machine interfaces are much more pleasant to perceive when beautiful colors are on the screen (I, for example, really like dark purple tones) and I also think sound effects matter.  An old-school call from a slot machine is already a classic of an online casino. 
So, when opening a new casino, devs should of course pay maximum attention to these issues.

Similarity is fine but a full copy can be a problem for the casinos that copying older casino. I remember when there were so many sites tried to copy bustabit and freebitcoin few years back, most of the copied sites received negative opinion because of it and they failed to survive eventually because most people are not attracted to copycat sites. Inspired by existing successful casino is also fine but a new site should have their own uniqueness, making some modifications (style, design, scheme, etc) will be more acceptable by most people.

We'll see if they don't intend to copy a site or if they do what they do on purpose. But it all comes back to how they can show us that they really want to make one casino that has the advantage over the other and if they can do it, I think they can compete with other casino sites. Or maybe later, they will provide updates to their site so that what we doubt can be answered. In the meantime, maybe we can give them more time to manage their site to run according to their plans and prove it to the public when the time comes.

I consider competition to be one of the reasons why some think about building a similar casino looking alike with the one they are imitating, but i count it as stupidity because they waste their precious time they would have use in bringing something new up for gamblers on copying others, they make use of brand name alike, services, webpage and home display almost thesame as well with the reputed ones they copied, if you take a look into such scenario very well, you will discover they are mostly scamming casinos whose main objectives are to decieve gamblers to thier fake sites and lay restrictions on their withdrawal, everything about their site functionality is poor, users must be at alert on such kind of dubious casinos.

[Betwrong]

~ At the end of the day, real competition is good for the space. Whilst it might be hard to imagine for those of you who have been gambling and posting here since 2016 or earlier, we are still extremely early in terms of the evolution of this industry. Exciting things are happening within tech, crypto and the internet as a whole, and it seems like that hasn't fully converted to gambling just yet - a big reason is due to the lack of actual competition. Competition forces companies to either change or risk being left behind. Those that build, keep up and grow; those that copy slowly die out. We'll soon see which is which.~

Cloning toppers  in the industry is not something invented by crypto gambling sites. Just look at the several examples that Google is giving us:



Not all those that copy others are dying out, as you can see from the list above. If you are honest with your customers and the functionality of your site is on the high level, you have every chance of being successful, but being at least slightly different wouldn't hurt, of course.

As long as the casino has no fraud cases, I don't think gamblers will have a problem with it and will use the casino to keep playing. They can find what they are looking for because they have no trouble playing in that casino. Some casinos may have a similar theme or site design to other sites, and I think that's normal. Gamblers are just looking for a place to play safe, reliable, proven gambling that can provide comfort so they don't have to move to another casino.

Gamblers are more interested in a working system where their funds will be more safer even though the original sites can not give them the guarantee they want. Copycats is not a bad thing but if the intention of copying another gambling platform has the motives if scamming people that that will not be accepted.

Gambling is meant to be flexible giving gamers the ability to choose from various gambling platforms of there choice. Some gamblers will never bordered they are playing on a copycat platform because they are more interested in the safety of their fund not just the name.

Exactly, the intentions of the developers of such casino are very important, if they are copying the layout of a casino simply because they think it is a good base for the development of their own casino then there is nothing wrong with that, however if they are doing it with the intention of trying to scam people by trying to make it seem as if they are the casino in question then without a doubt that is a shady move and people should avoid that casino at all costs.

^It does not matter as of now the copycat platform if you are a gambler in my own, people would like to gamble in a platform that seems all-in-one which is you never to jump in into another gambling casino for other games. Everything that you want is on one gambling platform even though if you will analyze they are almost the same with one gaming concept and which is considered to them a copycat game, that is not bad, the problem if the casino will include copying the idea of other gambling casino interface.

Obviously you do not have to reinvent the wheel to get rich, you could copy what someone else does and become rich as well. As we all know the story of facebook, they had myspace way way way before facebook came out, but myspace was sold for 500 million or so, whereas facebook is now worth 100+ billion dollars along with whatsapp and instagram calculated in it (now called meta).

So, we could easily say that if there is something out there, and you do a better version of it, then you should be getting rich too. But remember that these people are doing it and have millions of dollars, so you need to do something much much better, and can't do that with just a few grand and hiring a developer.

Well I think what makes a crypto casino thrive in the market depends on their service as a whole. This includes the promotions, bonuses, games, payments, etc.
Personally  I think those casinos that copy the design of others very closely has a very high chance of being kicked out off the market suddenly. I mean, if you know that your favorite casino is being copied so much, will you trust that one that is copying it? I'm guessing the answer is no, so that means that they won't be able to get good amount of customers. Unless they change their strategy.
