I am just curious to know if you can buy lottery tickets for your own national lottery in your country. I am not referring to all these scam gambling sites with supposed "Provably Fair" lottery systems.

I bought some lottery tickets online and I was only presented with the old traditional payment options and I figured it is time for us to approach these Lottery operators, to ask for a Bitcoin payment option.  Wink

If enough people ask for this, they just might consider giving us that option to pay with bitcoins.  Grin  What payment options do you have for online lottery in your country?

The supposed national lottery ticket in my own country can be obtain simply by the use of traditional means, as digital currency has not be implemented into our payment methods. Our National Lottery ticket is made available by our local currency but believe that in due time the government will allow bitcoin as one of it options for payment as they are much working on it(Bitcoin) adoption.

Which country?

Taken a look at situations in germany and austria, the "Tabaktrafiks" turned into head shops who include sale of post stamps or allowing money withdrawals, besides their offer of lottery tickets AND ... they are selling you Bitcoins wrapped as so called Bitcoinbons. Mostly due to Bitpanda I assume, a local exchanger.
Germany still sucks on that, but they suck on everything else, too.
