When I first started gambling around 2015, anonymous casinos and sportsbooks were the norm. Some of you might remember DirectBet - it was huge back then before eventually shutting down.

Now, the landscape has clearly shifted toward regulated platforms. Yet some anonymous options still exist. So I'm curious, where does the community stand today? Would you still choose anonymous casinos, or do you prefer sticking with regulated ones?

In the past when talking about anonymous casinos, it was not a common thing because there was no regulation or regulator and why they did not hold it at that time, it was because there was not too much trust in anonymous casinos and liquidity was still very low, then as it progressed to 2023 and anonymous casinos became more and more in demand as online casinos developed because digitization was increasing and there made casinos flooded with liquidity because many new players entered and were driven by hype, therefore the government began to smell profits and concerns from online casino activities that were used for money laundering and also became an industry that had to provide government benefits.

The current narrative is that casinos that do not have a license from an audit institution or legality from certain autonomous bodies will be claimed to be less safe and very questionable in fairness, therefore I personally have a casino that clearly meets the standards of a good casino today to reduce risk.
