What do you think about this move by the government? Will it significantly reduce gambling addiction, or will it only make the problem worse?
The aim of the government is not to stop gambling totally their aim is to reduce the number of addicted gamblers which I think is not totally bad because whatever affects the citizens has a direct effect to the government. The removal of the e- wallets will frustrate gamblers from gambling because they will not find it easy to fund their accounts but if there are other ways they can still fund their accounts without using the e- wallets then the government hasn't done enough to stop gambling addiction.
If the government don't aimed at totally stopping of gambling but limiting access to funding gambling wallet it's seems not enough and like a joke to me because at some point if an addict is not depositing through the e wallet, their can as well make deposits through other traditional sources or better still move on to online cryptocurrency casinos that give them the 100% freedom to do whatever it seems right with them.
What I noticed is that government don't really care about the people and this actions is not really about attempt to stop or reduce gambling addiction but may be the government ant getting enough tax and revenue from the e wallet operators and can't really monitor the activities of their citizens on those gambling sites so the tax isn't coming in as it should, that could be the hidined reason for that move by the government.
