First of all check the casino ToS if they are accepting the use of VPN or not because that will govern even though taking consideration of you privacy safety is important. Some casino confiscate casino balance once they find out that you are using VPN while there ToS clearly states that it’s forbidden.

If you check the ToS and it didn’t mention VPN is not allowed then using a premium VPN is really a good choice and I believe many user is doing on a casino that allows it. Just make sure you are using a legit premium VPN or else you might get connected on other userthat doing illegal things on the casino you are using.

[Oshosondy]

You have to read the gambling site Toss and make sure than VPN is allowed. There are some gambling sites that do not allow VPN usage.

Also know that fiat gambling site are also still also increasing in growth ams development. Even most crypto gambling sites are partially crypto because they accept fiat payment too.

VPN is not for security, it is just for privacy.

Unlike exchanges that are hacked most of the time, crypto casinos are far safer and not hacked like exchanges.

Do you have specific statistic about the growth of both fiat and crypto casino that makes you can say that crypto gambling is growing faster than fiat gambling?
Or it is just an assumption because you are into crypto gambling more than fiat gambling?
Coming up the usage of VPN, each casino has their own terms related to VPN so you should ask their official support about it.
Some casinos has no written terms related to this thing, that's why I suggest you to ask support for a better information.

I don't think that is a good plan because using VPNs is prohibited in many gambline websites.
They can freeze your account just by knowing that you are using a VPN.
Secondly, using VPN won't secure your funds against a data breach or a hack.
You would be storing your funds on the gambling site and once the site is hacked all your funds will be at risk.
So you are better off not using a VPN at all.

Based on what data and statistics have you made this assumption. Many people do not know about cryptocurrency yet, and in that number of persons are gamblers too, so it means that some gamblers still do not have any idea about gambling with cryptocurrency.

but the only issue I have with crypto is the security, data breach and co so I want to know if hiding my IP on a crypto gambling website is secure? I am going with a premium sub of express VPN. If you think otherwise please tell me.

VPN means Virtual Private Network, not Virtual Secure Network.

It'll rather be a nice option though but, to your greatest amazement -- alot of crypto casinos don't accept the use of VPNs or whatsoever it may be, that would mask your IP... They all understand that your reasons for this is to enhance your pseudonymity and safety, but the other way round -- it limits your Chances of genuine recognition; anyone could have a chance to log on your account and withdraw your winnings/deposit without your consent.... Isn't that exactly why we've got the KYCs initialized??
When you talk about VPN, -- that can only maintain some level of pseudonymity for you, but can't prevent your funds from getting compromised, so what's the essence??

to be honest, I have never used a VPN to access any gambling sites and have never hidden my IP, but before you do that you should look at the casino regulations you choose whether to prohibit the use of a VPN, if not you can use it because every casino must have different rules The only thing you have to do is look at the rules of the casino you want to play at

[swogerino]

There is no need to use a VPN if your country is allowed in the ToS of the casino you want to play.Even in countries that ban casinos they ban them on the basis of the word "bet" in their URL,so as long as the casino you may want to play do not has part that term as their URL for example "stake.com" and your country is allowed to be part of them,then there is absolutely no reason why to use VPN-s at all.

Some casinos allow VPN-s only from countries which are not allowed to play in their website because the license the casino has does not allow the specific country to be part of that,that is the only case when using a VPN is advisable,in all other cases it does not make any sense for me.

As most people who delve into systems would say, there's no system that is perfectly protected. There is and will be a way for one to be accessed, but most casinos that are known here in the forum have no known issues with that afaik, so I don't think you need to mind it that much.

Another thing to note is as others have said, VPN is banned from most casinos since they don't allow users from other specific countries. There has been a lot of examples where users mistakenly accuse the casino of scamming them, but it turns out they're accessing the casino from a banned country (Check a few in Scam Accusations). Premium or not, they will find see a way to notice your using VPN, not to mention it can't exactly help you if the casino asks for KYC (which most do nowadays).

[bittraffic]

It's not really the IP that most gamblers are afraid of getting breached of but the KYC data that the casino collects from you.
You can see some users have also not used a VPN for gambling purposes, probably thier only concern is enjoying the game also. As long as I can bet and try playing some casino games, I can work with it.

If you are not violating your country's law about gambling, there is no need for you to hide the IP.

Crypto gambling keeps growing and there's no doubt about that. But there's no accurate link or source we can refer to that its growth is much higher than fiat gambling. Besides, there are crypto-gambling sites that accept fiat payment, and might be some fiat gambling sites accept crypto* (anyone can correct me on this). How can we compare it?

Referring to your concern, I think things shouldn't be complicated. There's no such thing as when you play or visit a crypto-gambling site, possible security and data breaches will happen simply in an instant. Be vigilant in browsing the web and make sure your used device or gadgets are secured enough to deal with any kind of malicious software and related stuff.

There are crypto-gambling sites that allow the use of VPN but to make sure that you are not violating some part of the Site's Terms and Conditions it's really necessary and mandatory to find the terms related to the use of VPN.

What are you afraid of? Is online gambling illegal in your country? Then crypto gambling will benefit you. You don’t have to go nuts with your security. The gov won’t really care unless you make some very obvious mistakes like sending crpyto directly from your exchange to the casino. If you use a private wallet, nobody will know about it.

If you have other, more serious concerns then crypto may or may not be the answer. That depends on what you are trying to achieve.

it's important to note that using a VPN alone is not a foolproof way to protect your online activity. While a VPN can help to hide your IP address and encrypt your internet traffic, it is not a guarantee that your data will be completely secure. There are other measures you can take to further protect your online privacy and security, such as using strong, unique passwords and enabling two-factor authentication when available.

It's just fine to use VPN if you feel you are much more comfortable doing that because of your own security concerns.

But as others also mentioned and suggest, always be aware of the Terms and Services of that site because as far as I know, the use of a VPN isn't always allowed in some cases. Better be safe than sorry.

There are prohibited regions on some gambling sites and might be a risk on your account if you will used a VPN server in a prohibited region.

a lot of crypto casinos that I know prohibit the use of VPN(as it can be used to abuse a casino by creating multiple accounts) so you need to be sure that the casino you are going to gamble on allows the use of VPN. I've seen many gamblers come here in the forum and post their complaints against a casino because they were banned/blocked for using VPN.

[virasisog]

Each casino has their own TOS and most of the casinos that I have played with don't allow the usage of VPNs. You mighr face the consequences later on which might also affect your funds. However, there are still casinos that allow it but you must still read their terms of service carefully. There are really countries that are restricted and aren't allowed to play in some casinos but you only have to look for reputable casinos where you could play freely.

[BobK71]

There are many gambling sites that prohibit the use of VPN. Despite disallow VPN some gamblers try to gamble using VPN and they become success to gamble at that particular sites. But even if they think they are successful in this situation, they are not actually. Those gamblers accounts are at the highest risk. Authority can freeze those accounts at any time. Also, it may happen that the account is active when you lose the bet. But when a big amount is won, your account may be declared canceled at that moment. Then they can restrict you within the rules. So check ToS carefully.

[ralle14]

I also have to agree with what the others said and better ask the support of the casino you're playing at if they allow VPN because some casinos are very strict with using VPN and you don't want to risk losing your account that way. On the other hand, there are a bunch of casinos that somehow don't care much about VPN regardless of their TOS so you might get away with it for now. However, there's still a risk that the casino might use it against you in the future once you catch their attention through a big win or something similar.  

[Porfirii]

And I would add that, even if there is no mention to the usage of VPNs in the ToS, if you are willing to gamble a considerable amount, you should take into account that they can change the ToS at any time, not necessarily notifying in advance. It seems that there is a cost if you want to stay private.
