無論您是加密貨幣愛好者并相信它將徹底改變金融世界，還是認(rèn)為這完全是無稽之談，我們都不能否認(rèn)加密貨幣已經(jīng)對包括在線賭場在內(nèi)的許多行業(yè)產(chǎn)生了巨大影響的事實(shí)。

我們已經(jīng)看到賭場開始接受游戲中的加密貨幣作為一種賭博形式，這比僅僅提供另一種支付解決方案具有更大的影響。首先，加密貨幣解鎖了全球市場，非常適合在賭場的法律環(huán)境中導(dǎo)航。有些人使用加密貨幣來繞過地理限制或支付網(wǎng)關(guān)限制的過程。

但是加密賭場合法嗎？參與此類活動安全嗎？

讓我們深入了解在線賭場中加密貨幣的合法狀況，并了解它們是否安全。

加密賭場到底是什么？

好吧，名字說明了一切。加密賭場就像一個普通的在線賭場平臺，但人們可以使用比特幣、以太坊或其他數(shù)字資產(chǎn)等加密貨幣下注，而不是使用傳統(tǒng)的法定貨幣。

但是加密賭場有什么特別之處呢？僅僅是支付方式不同嗎？

您可能已經(jīng)知道，加密貨幣建立在區(qū)塊鏈之上，因此它們具有更多優(yōu)勢，例如匿名性、更快的交易速度，并且在大多數(shù)情況下費(fèi)用更低（取決于網(wǎng)絡(luò)）。

加密貨幣與傳統(tǒng)支付的真正區(qū)別在于交易處理方式。與傳統(tǒng)的在線賭場不同，傳統(tǒng)的在線賭場需要中間人（銀行）來處理交易，而加密貨幣則完全獨(dú)立，并在區(qū)塊鏈上進(jìn)行分類，無需中間人。這通常會縮短處理時(shí)間并降低傳統(tǒng)銀行的費(fèi)用。

盡管加密貨幣的市值已達(dá)到數(shù)十億美元，但其監(jiān)管加密行業(yè)的法律框架在各個司法管轄區(qū)有所不同。在大多數(shù)情況下，加密貨幣處于灰色地帶，并未完全受到監(jiān)管。這也包括使用加密貨幣的在線賭場。

當(dāng)前的監(jiān)管形勢

對于加密貨幣賭場而言，其運(yùn)營的合法性取決于您所在的世界。薩爾瓦多等一些國家對加密貨幣持更為友好的態(tài)度，而其他國家則試圖阻止加密貨幣合法化進(jìn)程。

以下是一些地區(qū)及其對加密賭場的看法：

英國

在英國，我們有英國賭博委員會 (UKGC) 來監(jiān)管在線賭博，說實(shí)話，監(jiān)管相當(dāng)嚴(yán)格。這并不是一件壞事。畢竟，他們的目標(biāo)是創(chuàng)造一個安全、公平的環(huán)境，讓客戶在任何情況下都不會被利用。

Even though we can spot that the UKGC is starting to acknowledge the use of digital currencies and their presence in online gambling, crypto casinos still remain in the gray area in terms of regulation.

Why? Well, their regulatory bodies have raised quite a few concerns, such as concerns over anonymity and potential money laundering. Therefore, if you want to open a crypto casino in the UK, Anti-Money Laundering (AML) and Know Your Customer (KYC) regulations are essential in order to get a chance to obtain a license.

United States

In the U.S. things are quite complex. The government has quite negative views on cryptocurrencies in general, although they recently approved the creation of a Bitcoin ETF, which opens the legal gate of cryptocurrencies in the country.

However, online gambling in the U.S. is based on a state level. Some states in the U.S. are allowing online gambling and casinos, and some states strictly prohibit online gambling. States like Nevada have legalized online gambling completely, including crypto gambling but they have to adhere to specific licensing requirements.

Therefore, opening a crypto casino in the U.S. is quite difficult. The crypto industry isn’t quite regulated and businesses need to navigate both federal guidelines and varying state laws to ensure compliance.

Malta

Malta is often a country where most online casinos go for obtaining a gambling license just because of their easy licensing process. Here we have the Malta Gaming Authority (MGA), which was one of the first regulatory bodies that started offering crypto casino licenses.

However, just because most casinos obtain their license through the MGA, it doesn’t mean that they don’t have to meet strict regulatory requirements.

Malta always had a progressive approach towards online gambling, which is why they were the first ones to integrate cryptocurrencies into their legal framework, just so the players could feel safe and protected.

Key Legal Considerations for Crypto Casinos

Licensing and Compliance

Although crypto casinos still operate in the grey area, obtaining a gambling license is very important not just for the business, but for the entire industry. People would feel safer, there would be fewer scams and frauds, and online casinos that use crypto open the future of the entire industry.

What’s the Deal With AML and KYC Regulations?

Furthermore, we have AML and KYC regulations, which are crucial for illicit activities such as money laundering. This is the main concern in terms of online casinos that operate with cryptocurrencies, and coming up with a legal solution or a framework can help the industry advance quickly.

Taxation and Reporting

Another important thing in the world of online casinos is taxes on the wins. In the United States, gambling winnings must be reported on specific forms in tax returns.
