We still assume there's a clean split between “data” and “money.” Like one is abstract and the other is tangible. But they’ve converged. Your data is money now. It’s capital. It’s credit risk. It’s compliance rating. It’s future liquidity. Casinos (especially crypto-linked ones) are data-hungry ecosystems wrapped in shiny UX. They don’t just track your wins. They track when you log in, how long you hover before placing a bet, your mouse movement, even your rage quits. All of this is packaged and profiled.
Hackers tend to go after the bankroll because that’s the obvious score. But real threats are in the backend, scraping identities, building behavioral models to run bots that know how a real gambler reacts under stress. If the next casino hack doesn’t steal money or names, but uses facial KYC data to build a generative AI model of you, and starts gambling as you across platforms in unregulated markets, Will the casino even be liable?
I guess, in today's digital world, it is like every online movement you make is being kept and has potential future use for some companies. So every online activity, you need to make sure that you are disclosing very less or just the important ones because you'll never know where your data will end up with.
