Gambling addiction is induced by personal choice and external factors; but people tend to forget everything when they are drowning into gambling addiction, so I think the casino needs to step in by blocking the person's access to the platform, making self-exclusion automatic when signs of gambling addiction are seen.

What is your take on implementing a global temporary ban on using online gambling platforms using Blockchain+KYC to prevent people from getting addicted to gambling?
The idea may be good, or even perfect to be more honest, but you know it won't work. The chances that this idea would be picked up by any casino is extremely very slim and as good as impossible, except the government will pick this up and then mandate every casinos to implement it, then set up a unit that will go around monitoring to make sure every casino is following the Implementation oder by the government.

Reason why casinos their self won't pick this up is because most of them, maybe all really do not care, they simply warn you that gambling is addictive and that you should gamble responsibly, if you do not adhere to this instructions and end up allowing yourself to get addicted, that's your problem and it automatically becomes an advantage for the casinos since they will be making alot of money from you going forward.

So inclusion, it is often said that prevention is better than cure, individually we all should learn to gamble to avoid getting addicted.
