Absolutely!

There's no denying that gambling sector was the first major catalist to a Bitcoin adoption, and the reason they did so is very simple...
Its allows for faster transactions, eliminates geographic and banking barriers and offers much greater privacy compared to traditional payment methods.

Its true that on the beginning, when few accepted cryptocurrencies, it was the casinos that saw this potential before anyone else, and it was good for everyone... they offered fast, hassle free deposits and, in return gained a ton of customers, as this sector's expansion in recent years has been enormous.

Now, let's hope this expands to more sectors of the economy, as we're still far from achieving widespread adoption of cryptocurrencies as a payment method... I think more government incentives and regulations are needed for this to happen.
