How can the current trend affect the future of gambling?

What do you think about this? How regularly we all attend a casino? Specially in this current quarantine situation. I'll read yours answers :O

I'd say from the short-term period, the traffic and income of online casinos will go up, but after few months, when the financial crisis will come (and it will come), some players will probably leave casinos to save money or they'll simply gamble less since they'll have less money to spend.

A curiosity related to online casinos: how many people work in an average online casino? Medium one?

I think those people would be directly affected.

I think that for online casinos it is not a major problem, because now especially as people are at home, the more they go to play and the income will be higher.

For small casinos, it could be 20-50, but for example for bigger brands based in Malta, it's between 100 - 1 000.

The future of gambling is not gonna be much affected by this...people will gamble anyway... i see all of them gets Esport games in offer, and even live cs, lol , or dota games...even some amateur football 

casinos / well if u gonna win some money the time is now, everyone gamble online these days, so there is automatically bigger chance to win /more money circulate..  

The gambling activity will increase for sure since there's more people in their houses and more free time. About the financial crisis, that's for sure but id like to add that many people will look to work online or create online business in order to survive the crisis. It's just about time.  

Probably it will change a lot, like all those people in the gambling industry should prepare for many changes to adapt their activity into people needs.

Wow, I didn’t think an online casino had that many employees. I thought it was a few employees. It sounds interesting because I’ve only seen those who work in a live casino.

In fact lately I’ve been seeing publicity abut this. I’m a little skeptical about E-sports betting, I used to play very little because of my internet connection but I really enjoy watching championship games :D

im watching some CS GO lately, 

that's f up actually, u can lose on purpose and make bets against you ... idk if they check that

fifa /pes tournaments also... so many live games

Good time to promotion for those gamers   

Yes, 100 and more is normal at least in Malta. Of course, there could be casinos with only few employees, but usually when you see a casino that has a live chat available in multiple languages 24/7, you need quite a lot of people for the customer support to cover all the shifts and languages, not speaking about payments and fraud departments, customer retention, marketing, casino departments (they test and implement new games from providers), copywriters, affiliates, VIP account managers, outbound department, internal IT, operations, legal department, HR etc. There can be a lot of people involved if you want to do it properly.

If you want to start betting on sports, unfortunately it is not the best time.

I mean, there are no popular tournaments or big clubs playing.

I would be encouraged to say that the sport was reduced by 90%, except for a few events.

If you want to do it anyway, I suggest you start with low amounts, to see how they work, and familiarize yourself with the types of bets that exist.

Don't be skeptical, online casinos and sports betting work very well. If you win they pay you! You just have to know how to bet and above all: choose a well-rated bookmaker! So you will have a good experience and hopefully you will earn some money!

Right now I think it’s all a chaos, everything is stopped because of the quarantine that there aren’t enough places to place sports bets.

You are right, I feel identified because today I still bet. A little bit, but I do since I have more priorities. And, I have a doubt, E-sports are just only events or  there are available competitions at any time of day?

It is a fact that we are all locked up at home for our safety and health. Regarding on the economic crisis, I think we all have that problem about taxes and daily consumption inside our home. I’ve seen several job-seeking offers from home on social media

As long as people have money, online casinos should be working like leeches haha and more if the demand is high enough.

Everything is not forever and I think soon, when the financial crisis comes, many players will simply stop using this platform. Maybe the units that win money by cheating will remain rich and flourish, although the chances of winning will increase significantly. I don't really know how it can really affect the casino, but if you give an example in games, CS GO, then there will definitely be a lot of users, especially with new updates. Yes, and I found a great service with good sites for playing and bonus codes on https://globalcsgo.com/gambling-sites/, and even free, which can also be sold to noobs who simply do not know what can be found on the service..

Your assumption makes sense, but I honestly don't think that this is going to happen. When the corona crisis came, many only casinos increased their income by 30-40 %. The gambling business has always been here, even in ancient Greek.

I think it's going to be a bit like during the DotCom bubble at the end of the 90s. Just a few will survive.

This summer online gambling becomes legal here in Germany. The loophole using a Malta license won't work anymore. And the conditions to get a gambling license in Germany are very hard for operators. Like financial backup not less than a number with 7 zeros. Maybe Europe or other countries follow
