I've never been to Vegas myself, but I've heard stories from people that were there couple of years ago. It's from them I learned about the common misconception regarding the average crowd in Las Vegas. Going there they were expecting to see what they saw in the movies, the elite, the crème de la crème. But in reality they were constantly encountering people who were looking more like rednecks and such
And you know what that means?
That Las Vegas is extremely overhyped, while its appeal and public perception blown completely out of proportion! Okay, with Las Vegas done and out of the picture, what can you say about the Monaco casinos (of the Monte Carlo fame)? Here we should definitely meet the crème de la crème of the gambling world and financial elites as it literally refers to the French origin of the term (with French being the official language there). In short, do Texan rednecks and their European peers frequent those casinos too? Can't believe that!

I think you are right, the Monte Carlo Casino is different. However hard I tried, I couldn't manage to find any evidence that the most players there are not rich. Average Joes do visit the place, but mostly as tourists, paying 17 EURO for entry, walking around, making photos, making several bets at most, just for the record, and leaving.
So, returning to where we started, the cashier of the Monte Carlo Casino should rather be accepting BTC, because it is very likely that a big part of the players there have it, and would love to have the opportunity of exchanging it for casino chips. I read that "the cashier exchanges
any currency" in the Monte Carlo Casino. So, why not Bitcoin then?
