Crypto Gambling Site Ads popping up on Social media and picking up steam

[jaberwock]

I too encounter gambling ads almost daily. As I understand it is the work of targeted advertising because we are interested in this area of entertainment. By the way, I have enough information from the forum to play on gambling platforms with a good reputation. I trust the members of this forum more than advertising in social networks, because there is often advertised outright fraud and no one moderates it.

OP must have known ways of how to stop it like installing ad blocks and the other is by not watching gambling contents. That should divert the algorithm in others. I already tried a couple of gambling ads on social media and so far none of them have scammed me and if ever there are, I think it will still get mass reported and taken down immediately. The known issue so far about them is false advertising but there is also an option for this if we want to report them. It is great that being involved in communities like Bitcointalk, allows us to be informative about what is legit and what is a scam. As for other people that are not a member of such, they still can learn with their mistakes.

Anyone else noticing this? I mostly just use Insta but what’s kind of funny is I never saw gambling ads until just recently and in fact, maybe two of the recent four posts I’ve found,  I found were for” dual bits” the current campaign I’m in. I thought this was really cool. I know I took a screenshot somewhere. I will have to dig it up to add to this thread but again I’ve also seen others and just curious if anyone else is seeing the same they tend?

I have seen that stake getting advertised by my local content creators and I for once asked myself if that stake that is being advertised is the same as the real stake that we all know here in the forum, the reason I asked is that those social media promoters are using tools like AI to make their videos and it doesn't look and sound real most times.


This spike up a crusty in me to doubt the legitness of those crypto gambling sites that got their platform advertising in such a manner, I am not against social media promotions in form of videos and images, but what is not appealing is the fake reviews and nature of those videos creators.

Manipulation and misinformation are present on the internet in very large scale. We have to be careful on what we trust and consider to be legit nowadays, because it can be a serious mistake.

There are people making a living from lies and fake content, and even worse: they teach others (for a price) how to do that as well. So we have a pandemic of scammers and impersonators online earning from shady schemes.

And in fact, many social influencers belong to that category, luring their audience into believing they are making huge profit from gambling and that everyone else can do it too.

The internet is no longer safe for anyone, there have been some massively new development in the system, it becomes very risky and it also exhibits a tacky publicity stunt on its users. It's been a longterm I got some real legit information on the internet, we should be more focused on what makes us happy, we divide our time to get legit information that will be more helpful for everyone of us.

Scammers are everywhere, one ought to be aware about them and not getting convinced or manipulated following the upright road map of these projects. Crypto attracts more scammers because this is the evident route for most of these investors and traders. Although the unwise and clueless ones becomes victims of scams.

This issue of popping ads isn't a new thing because it's undeniably a recurring concern by most gamblers who loved to play at their own preferred zone. Indeed, there's a lot of cool games to choose with, we just need to consider all factors that might affect our daily living. We need to be firm on how mobile gambling games really influences several individuals, so it always essential to develop self control as well as financial management as well.

That's how social media works; they have an intelligent system of sorts to track your activity, your desire, and what you're looking for, so if you're not careful of what you're searching for or following, you may end up getting annoyed at what's popping up on your feeds.
So to organize your feeds, organize your activity so you will end up getting what you really want.

In my case, I've never seen any casino ads on Instagram. Until I read this post, I went to my Instagram and searched a lot and didn't see any. But it's strange that I've always seen ads for forex and trading bots. And they're ads in which the guys show luxury houses, luxury cars and promise that people who acquire those bots will also have those luxury houses and cars. In other words, they're obvious scams.

Social media is tracking your preferences and interactions since you are subscribing to gambling-related platforms; they will feed your feeds with what you prefer. I remember searching for flowers as a gift, and I have all my feeds for the last 5 days showing all flower shop ads.
On social media, we are the products they are selling to their advertisers, so social media will give you the best features for you to stay; the longer you stay, the more these social media benefits from your presence.

That one is true, I have had such experience after repeatedly searching for real estate company, all the ads that pop out repeatedly is different real estate company and their locations but apart from that, I have never searched for gambling on my Facebook account and yet I keep seeing those ads repeatedly, I think they are sponsored which are meant to pop out unnecessarily whether you have such preference or not you will definitely encounter the ads.

[Apocollapse]

In Instagram I usually see the casino you mentioned and other two casinos are in meme accounts.

I still remember there was a video where people are in matrix, they born, study, graduated, work, marriage, having baby, then die. Every people are programmed like that, until there's one choose to run away from the system after he graduated.

I thought he's making business or become a freelancer, but he actually become a gambler.

Yes, the stake that is being advertised by social media influencers is the same as the stake we know in this forum because when I watched the videos by the social media influencers, they were telling Nigerians that they can now place a bet with "Naira" on stake casino, which was one of the developments that was recently added to stake casino. I think stake casino management collaborates with social media influencers so that the Nigerian citizens who are making use of stake casino can easily fund their accounts with Naira and gamble at their convenience.

Sometime I see gambling ads in my social media pages but I don't bother to skip that because I don't need it. Besides, I have my own casino list to playing gambling but what I worry is how if young people see that gambling ads and become curious?

They will just click the ads and redirect to the casino and even they don't know anything about the site. The chance for them to get scam will be big and if they can not control themselves and identify that is casino, they can start playing gambling. It seems we really need to concern about this and secure our children by activating safety for them.

Casinos will try to expand their ads in everywhere, especially crypto casinos who almost all of their customers are people who actively online in internet. They even promote in something that have no correlation with cryptocurrency and gambling, like dating apps, porn sites, online image resizer, or anything online. I don't mention social medias because in social medias are the way for to catch new gamblers as many as possible.

Yeah, actually that is something I have noticed as well. Casinos tend to advertise themselves on as many places as possible, it does not matter whether it has something to do with gambling or crypto.
At first, I started to see gambling  advertising on Blockchain explorers, which made sense to me, because those who own crypto currency could easily become gamblers if they are given the chance to deposit into a crypto casino, however, as time passed by I started to see the same ads on file convertion websites, on massive art websites, social media and even in some adult content webs...
It could be though, the Google account, Microsoft account or any other accounts we use have enabled targeted ads for us, so we only see products and services which are of our interest, regardless of the content of the webpage we visit.

You've been traced and picked by the system to deliver those gambling ads because of your surfing history; this is the reason why I am very careful about my history and what I'm searching for.
In case I have enough of those ads and I don't want to see them again, there's always an option on the post to stop seeing similar posts like that.
Study social media where you are active and learn how to disable those ads for a better user experience.

Ads are a measure of how successful the business is. Casino's specially crypto based casinos have got huge growth in recent years and are now visible in almost every sports. There are crypto based casinos sponsoring different teams and tournaments and its no surprise that they would be attracting traffic through ads.
Furthermore almost all of the ads these days are fed according to user preference. As you are in the forum, your digital footprint would mark you as someone who's interested in and uses crypto and is talking about gambling. You are naturally an audience of targeted ads. If you use a completely new device with no digital footprint, you might see less of those ads and different types of ads in general.

that is obviously because of your algorithm you might only be interacting with posts that have something to do with trading and forex and whatnot and not much when it comes to casinos and gambling in general

but sometimes even if it is not part of your algorithm some ads should still make their way to you so maybe there are just really not much gambling ads on instagram in general

I am not Instagram friendly user, but i have an account in there and i am using a little bit, but i have never seen gambling related ads on the Instagram platform, but in the other social media platform as like facebook, twitter & YouTube, especially i have seen a lot of casino platforms ads in every single day, some gambling platform are well known from those ads i seen.

[iv4n]

I have been noticing and talking this growth trend for years... In my case, this growth is not reserved only for crypto casinos, but also for online and land-based casinos in my country. Casino advertising is everywhere, as I said, I have already written about it, their adds are even where they shouldn't be.

I don't blame casinos for that, nor do various social networks... they have a business to run and do what they can. The state and state institutions should pass some laws and have those laws implemented. It's all up to them, in normal states it's regulated in a smart way, or at least it's discussed about and they will come up to some good solutions.

Yeah, I've been seeing them and not just in insta but also in different websites. After searching them through google, after hitting that website then banner ads are there too for more and known casinos that are also in the forum. I find this not odd though but they're hitting their exact targets just like you and me and it probably has something to do with the browser and algorithm and data that these platforms have collected.

You will see a little bit of harmony that there are many online casinos or gambling ads in Facebook. These advertisements invite new users from and see lots of new users ads and enter there and play gambling. Since new and young users are found on Facebook, advertisers are promoting advertising using highly techniques on Facebook, casino companies are getting new users overnight. Besides, gambling related ads are usually controlled and in many countries it is a highly precise legal field that allows such ads for companies licensed in certain regions only.
