Honestly, I find it complicated. Just looking at blockchain activity to decide if someone is addicted to gambling isn’t a solid reference. Anyone can make lots of gambling transactions or play regularly, yet still not consider themselves addicted.
This is truly not possible at all. No one know how much the gambler is rich. Someone like Drake bet huge amount of money because he is very rich. That should not be the reason they should self-exclude him from gambling. This will only be a poor approach against gambling addiction. Gamblers should be the one that should go for self-exclusion on a gambling site by themselves.
Exactly, that’s why self-education is really important. The best the government can do is run educational ads for gamblers. It’s just like smoking or drinking, there are ads warning that it’s bad for your health, but those things aren’t banned in most countries. At least people who consume them know the risks.
Same with gambling. There’s always the risk of addiction, but if a gambler is already mature, that means he’s also responsible for his actions. In that case, the government can’t be blamed at all.
