To what extent do you chase anonymity while gambling?

[Scripture]

Hey guys.
Choosing crypto in casinos has always also to do with more anonimous gambling.
Anyway I'm curious how important is anonimity to you when you pay & play?

Not that important since I already filled out many KYC forms and fortunately I'm still safe from any hack or scam.
I'm enjoying playing with the best gambling site though it requires a level 1 KYC but that's ok, as long as my money is safe which is my top concern. KYC might be one of the requirements later on, we can't skip that strong regulations as the government agencies tries to regulate casinos strictly.

This is important for me, and I already burned myself with one bad casino that confiscated my money because of this, that is why I stopped using them.
I am ok with passing kyc when winning larger amount of money, and I understand this is needed as protection from people who are abusing casinos.
It's best to select one or two trusted casinos and stick with them if they allow more relaxed approach to betting.

SOme people are too simple to disclose their personal information yet they are never scammed or hacked
However sometimes people who are very concerned and curious - might have experience things otherwise - this all depends on your luck

Yes it varies from person to person but this does not mean that we do not take care of the anonymity factor. Being responsible people, it is our duty not to disclose our information unnecessarily as this information can be misused in many ways. Don't just depend on luck that you will be safe at all times.

As an example, you can do KYC as most gambling sites as that is mandatory in many sites but you can choose to provide your kyc in only the trusted site. Although nothing is grantee but this will give you a piece of mind that your details are safe as the site is reputed and trusted.

Also you need to know that your KYC information is not always use in the wrong way. It can be used for marketing purposes by different companies to give you targeted ads based upon your location and/ or age etc. There are many things which can be done by your KYC data.

The poker casinos (FiaT) allowed some pages to take the gambling habits in the main casinos, if you checked/found a nickname you could even see what games this guy was good at and also see his earnings, so in this case statistics were more important than knowing the player beyond a nickname.

A game privacy right was violated, even through that nick you were anonymous, but your game was not. So this detail that has nothing to do directly with my personal data is important to me.

As for traditional games or in general any crypto casino, you have to understand or better say READ, the conditions of each casino (ToC), to understand when we can be exposed to delivering personal information.

That in theory some crypto casinos still offer total anonymity, but the reality is that the trend is that there is a 99% permissibility to KYC in any casino that in its ToC says (no but), if you do not exceed a certain withdrawal amount or which on certain occasions is at discretion. So I understand that my anonymity is equivalent to 1% of those conditions in those casinos.

When you using cryptos, then it’s your birthright to remain anonymous.
Cryptos are meant to remain anonymous, so yes it’s obviously a feature.
Moreover I just hate the casinos which asks for KYC, as it leads to data exploitation sometimes.
It’s just my personal preference, I don’t like casinos asking for KYC, so this suggestion of mine might vary from other people.

Not all cryptos are for privacy purposes! actually most of casinos accepted a centralized coins and has no privacy feature since it's easy to track the coins belong to. Almost casinos in this forum have a mandatory KYC rule, I doubt you're only gamble on no KYC casino e.g. Freebitco.in and Anonibet.

What can I say is most of gamblers are don't care with their privacy, there's many cases the gamblers has no choice except submit their KYC in order to continue to withdraw their money.

however, KYC is indeed used in most of today's popular crypto casinos. some fiat casinos I used to play did not require KYC, only when there was a deposit and withdrawal problem, then KYC would be required.
 
KYC will not allow players to remain anonymous. but all this will help the system run. Casinos have their way of doing business. KYC is one way to deal with the casino problems of the past.
you are right, there is no problem for gamblers handing over their data. simple reason, it's all just for the game.

When I started in Crypto currencies... back when Bitcoin was just $300 per coin... anonymity was VERY important, because it was still illegal to own and use it. As time goes by.... governments started to define it as a commodity and gambling was one of the main uses for it. (still illegal in many countries)

Now it is 100% legal in many countries and online gambling are regulated and requires KYC verification ...effectively killing all anonymity. There are some sites that are not regulated and you can still gamble without losing your anonymity.... but they are getting fewer and fewer over time.

Is it important for me to be anonymous..... Yes, because pseudo anonymity protect your financial privacy and your Crypto wealth.  

It is really important to hide our identities on the internet, and it's a matter of privacy that's why a lot of privacy coins just pop up on the cryptocurrency market but since a lot of exchanges need a KYC it contradicts the purpose of it.

And I think the best gambling sites have the best security and do not require KYC.

[traderethereum]

I am a person who has considered anonymity one of the rights that we should not allow ourselves to be taken away by anything in the world, but since I know the casinos and the entire security system and all the scams that have occurred, I think that this anonymity has already made me change as time goes by, I have seen that the trend is always to ask for KYC, when I realized that a few years ago Binance asked me for KYC to be able to give me support, it was when I realized that all the systems From that moment they were going to change to no privacy and it was like that, now things are very heavy with respect to it, but I think that little by little we will unfortunately lose our anonymity.

There's no more anonymity to us but its makes casino being safe . KYC is very useful to prevent many scammer in online world , many business and casino's put some security and take our identity to start working. Binance is one of a biggest trading platform that why they put KYC for safetiness. Only thing that we can do is to limit the money that we used and be humble always. Careful always and goodluck.

Maybe verification is something we have to accept now because exchange sites have already requested KYC verification by submitting documents and gambling sites are now doing the same.
Maybe later, we won't be able to be anonymous again in the future because of regulations from the government that want to know people who use crypto.
KYC is something that crypto gamblers always try to avoid because we gamble using crypto and we can send that crypto from different wallets to our gambling account.
But the casinos are trying to know who we really are so they implement KYC.
And, indeed, we can only limit the use of money for gambling and don't tell others that we have cryptocurrencies of various kinds.

I think almost all gambling sites that use crypto have implemented kyc for users, so anonymity is no longer important if we want to play online gambling. the most important thing now is the convenience when withdrawing and depositing is very easy to do without having to wait long.

This type of topic is in great demand in the forum, it is of the utmost importance, I know that the players are looking for a way to enjoy themselves without the need for them to be followed up, it is very easy for a government or police entity that is requesting a type of permission to review the actions of a potential client of the casino and the casino provides them, whether publicly or privately, that the information does not come out, it is something that I will not agree to, I am a player who does not have much experience, I try to look for casinos that are very famous to play and if I win, I know that to withdraw I have to pass the KYC, but it is preferable to do it with reliable casinos.

There are still some that are considerate with their players but it's only for those that gamble with a very few amount. They don't mind to ask those players because they're not big time gamblers so they allow them to gamble freely without even asked for their identities.
However, it's true that most of them these days are asking for kyc and they're mandated to do that even if they don't want to by the regulators where they're registered.

[Jemzx00]

Not that important since I already filled out many KYC forms and fortunately I'm still safe from any hack or scam.
I'm enjoying playing with the best gambling site though it requires a level 1 KYC but that's ok, as long as my money is safe which is my top concern. KYC might be one of the requirements later on, we can't skip that strong regulations as the government agencies tries to regulate casinos strictly.

This can be troublesome in the long run if you've provided your identity to various platforms. Based on my understanding of what you've said, it looks like you've provided your identification to different platforms, and it is not limited to gambling casinos.
You might not encounter any issues now, but the information you've provided to those platforms may come to you soon as you can't ensure how they'll your information once things go under.

however, the current situation will force us to use our data for KYC on some platforms.
not only Casino, if you register a centralized exchange. of course, they will ask KYC to validate your account.
anonymous at this time I think not too much attention anymore. especially those who do work or use multiple platforms for their daily life.
For those who work in marketing, of course, data from customers is very necessary. Casinos need this, not just to prevent people from taking advantage of casino events. In business, customer data is very important. it is to measure their market success.

That's the thing, there are certain platform whether it's gambling or exchange platform where we are required submit our documents however, we should pick which platform we will be sending our documents and submit with the KYC process. For example, we used Stake as our daily gambling platform then there should be no problem complying with the KYC process however if you will just try on some platform then I don't think that submitting our documents to limit those who has our identification.

[paxmao]

Not  much in my case, as I have little to hide, however I do respect people who play larger sums and have "that type of money" and look for a degree of privacy. I guess that it has always existed in the "real" world and on-line gambling has just made it easier. Anonymity in general is a nice to have, but it may not be the key to choose a platform for most of the people.

Hey guys.
Choosing crypto in casinos has always also to do with more anonimous gambling.
Anyway I'm curious how important is anonimity to you when you pay & play?

Gone are the days when gamblers were despised and perceived as  lesser humans, today, gambling have become one of the noble ways one can earn money while having fun.
I personally have absolutely nothing to hide as a gambler, if I hide my gambling activities from my wife or anybody else, it is because I don't want them to know how much I spend on gambling, but as a gambler, anonimity isn't a concern or problem to me, anybody can know I am a gambler, but what I keep away from public knowledge is how much I spend on gambling, except when I win big.

For me is the utmost top priority and I prefer casinos who ask KYC only when you withdraw a certain amount of money which usually is somewhat high.Even when I win big I withdraw in small chunks I have no problems whatsoever by withdrawing with 0.01 Bitcoin which is not a relevant amount nowadays equivalent in dollars.

I have withdrawn a lot of times from reputable casinos who may ask KYC only if that big amount withdraw is requested or they have some suspicions about your account,so far they have not asked me KYC or anything,they just let the withdraws through.

It’s hard these days to find gambling casinos that don’t require to verify your identification, especially if you are a high roller. However, I don’t gamble at a very significant amount, maybe the reason why I still given the chances to be anonymous every time I gamble. But if you want more security of your funds and you want to avoid payout delays, maybe let’s learn to accept that KYC will be here for good. And as gambling casinos become more centralized, expect that casinos will be more regulated, thus KYC will also be strictly implemented each time you deposit and create withdrawals.

What happens is that this is already like a trend, each time the laws regarding this type of thing are very strict, sometimes and mostly KYC is requested so that the casino can continue operating without any problems with the casino. law, they prefer to cover their backs well first, customers know that at any moment it will come again due to their good reputation and trust, so I partly blame the casinos, I know that there is a lot of danger in terms of the information that it can be filtered to hands that are not so good, but that is a risk that must be assumed by anyone who wants to play in a crypt casino, I know and understand that I should be totally anonymous by the fact of using Crypto, but things no longer they are like that

The important thing about all this is, as has already been commented on in other threads, if there is a favorite platform under which we always use, there is no apparent problem in leaving our KYC, it is something that does not have any problem, like stake.com, SB, among others, because we know very well that our data will be very well guarded and there will be no problems when there is a hack, because for these platforms the main thing is security and that their clients and players are always happy, then in the security they have is very great, and this is what gives peace of mind to all the people who always frequent the casino.

Well, I don't know, but previously people who played in casinos were considered lazy, and as people who weren't worth talking about, I only remember when I heard many talk about players, who saw them as vicious, in In these times, if a person is a casino player or something like that, he is almost considered one of the most noble people of all, because that means that he has enough money to put him in a casino, this means that they have so much money that he doesn't know what to spend it on, something like that is how at least most of the people who live around me see it, and if you're single, wow they can grab you quickly!

I am the same as you, since I am not gambling a huge amount of money I have never needed to verify myself at any casino, however it would be incredibly shortsighted if I did not saw there were many people that had to identify themselves as they were high rollers and casinos had to satisfy the need of the governments to know where those funds come from, so casinos are trapped too as they do not want to lose their license but they also do not want to lose their clients over something like this.

I don't feel like protecting your personal life in the Internet is "hiding". There are things I'd be willing to show, like my face, or my ID, but not as a detailed scan, rather a video conference or with all the details besides my name hidden. What I wouldn't show is my address. I don't want to share such things with someone that I don't know and don't trust, even people who I send my money to.

It's the same relation that you have with someone in a store or a restaurant. You pay them and if needed can flash your ID, but you don't tell them where you live and don't hand them your ID so they can make a copy.

I believe bigger players already submitted their KYC to the platform so they can be more safe but of course they will not tell it to the public because of that security issue. Same with me, I don’t have much to hide but because of belief of the society that gambling is bad, I also decided to stay anonymous since I know KYC are secured with the site but to the people around you, for sure they will spread it once they know that you are into gambling.
