Casino Introduction

To fully understand the potential of the casino market and why 0xBets can become a major player in it, let's briefly review the history and importance of the casino industry.

The modernization, democratization, and innovations that have affected this industry have enabled it to become a market worth billions of dollars, estimated to reach $263.3 billion in 2023. And this market is far from reaching its peak, as many experts expect it to grow at a compound annual growth rate of 5.6% between 2023 and 2028, making it a dynamic, innovative, and growing market.

The weight of this industry is such that in the United States, it generates more revenue than the entire movie industry, baseball, and amusement parks combined. In addition, a 2011 CBS News report revealed that there are more slot machines than ATMs in the country.

Apart from humans' natural attraction to gambling, this growth is due to two main phenomena:

• The first one is a change in consumer habits. Previously, players had to travel long distances to be able to play in a casino. Then, casinos multiplied in almost every major city in the world, reducing the travel time required for players. Today, thanks to the advent of technology, players can easily access online casinos from the comfort of their own homes. This accessibility has led to an increase in the number of players, stimulating the industry growth.

• The second one is that the online casino industry has become highly competitive, leading to the development of innovative products and services that meet all the needs of different players. For example, online casinos now offer live dealer games, offering a more immersive and interactive gaming experience.

The casino market has largely satisfied the needs of different players by providing:

• A wide variety of games and services

• The opportunity to play in a nearby casino, a prestigious but distant casino, or an online casino from home.

Despite all of this, the market has many flaws. One notable issue is the lack of transparency among online casinos, the sub-sector most likely to stimulate industry growth. This lack of transparency requires players to trust the casinos, which poses a significant problem as the saying goes, "If the potential to rig a game is there, human beings will take advantage of it."

These flaws can be addressed through the use of the blockchain technology. This is precisely what our innovative casino, 0xBets, aims to do.
