But hey, a bunch of gambling addicts will be able to gamble online without getting in trouble. That's the future of Darkcoin. Nefarious activities. Not mainstream adoption.
You have a problem with people gambling online? What about at a casino?
That's a great point you've brought up and I think it clearly illustrates that the main problem with online gambling for the government is that they won't get their cut if a US citizen chooses to gamble on a site hosted outside the US. Shock! Horror! How nefarious!
