Lately, I've been gambling a bit too much again and it's impossible to add limits to most crypto gambling websites.
Heck, I've found it to be impossible to just remove your account, without contacting support.

I think it should be mandatory, or at least standard, to include easy ways to prevent members from gambling.
In my country (Belgium), legal gambling websites are required to have player-imposed limits, plus general limits on their websites.
I wish crypto-based gambling websites would do the same.

Anyway, I've just sent an e-mail to the one casino I was still playing on, to close down my account. I hope they'll do that without any issue.
But still, I wish they would just add a function to do it by yourself, or add some self-control functionality.

I.e. let people exclude themselves for X amount of time
That is why it is called self-control because it needs to be made by your own.
Adding up some self-control feature on their site wouldn't keep you from gambling because it is so easy to create new account to gamble.
So what's the point of adding it if the user could just easily create a new account while it's main is still unavailable?
It is well explained by you why websites lack this feature because it has no practical importance. Those who have an addiction to gambling can go to any extent to fulfill their desires. Self-control is one of the toughest things all over the world and I believe yoga or meditation can help with it to a great level.
