And to even mention, this strategy saves the casino some headache and expenses, like money they would have spend on shipping the item can be used for something else

exactly, and i bet 98% of the players would prefer a cash bonus that they can either cashout or play with if they want, and shipping an expensive physical gift around the world can be a pain for both the sender and the receiver. for example, if the item isn't a DDP shipment, the receiver will have to deal with customs fees.
imagine you get a $10k item and have to pay $3k or who know how much just to clear it.

Many items would be abandoned if casinos chose physical gifts in all situations. The stress involved in trying to get items cleared in customs is not worth the stress for most persons in some countries, especially when it is just an item and not items to sell, where you can consider that there will be profit to be made.

Customs in some countries will make the clearance process particularly frustrating for a first-timer with no experience in the process. Sometimes the intention is to get them to abandon the items so they can auction them for themselves after a while.

I believe if a rough survey is conducted, many gamblers will prefer any gift from the crypto casino they play on to be given to them in the form of cryptocurrency. There is a lot of ease.
