I've got mixed feelings about renting my sig for gambling. I've done it because I wanted managers to consider me for other sig campaigns which aren't casinos when they're available. I'd prefer giving it to mixer sig campaigns but they're banned. I'm not sure how long I'll rent my sig like this.
I also have mixed feelings about it, but then I conclude I'm promoting gambling inside an international community of Bitcoin, crypto and gambling enthusiasts, who are theoretically mature enough to understand the risks and potential outcomes involved in gambling matters. Most people here are already educated on those financial matters, and those who aren't yet, are educating themselves in real time.

Moreover, gambling ads here aren't misleading. We don't talk about gambling as if it was going to solve people's financial problems, neither work as a source of extra income. We talk about the reality of gambling: you can indeed get wealthy through gambling, but it will happen only to a tiny percentage of total gamblers, while most players will lose the more they bet.

About children getting in touch with gambling in daily life, that is something you can't prevent, so why not to talk about with them in a realistic way, just like we do on this forum? To educate and enlight is the best alternative. The same is valid for drugs and other addictive practices. Show the negative side, how harmful it can be, potential consequences, but be aware you can't prevent them from knowing the existence of such things.
