Unless you're doing some illegal (e.g. money laundering), there's no need and zero add for cryptocurrency for gambling. I don't need a distributed ledger with block consensus and wasting power computation to carry out a merchangt transaction.
Think about a smart contract that has immutable code in it that has a bug regarding shuffling of the deck or misuse/error on financial transfer. There's nothing to think about or do...it's immutable. Once released on ethereum you're out of luck.
Think about running an auction and placing bids, I can place a bid and not have the money which can only be resolved in an alley way or a court with us dollars or we can conduct a more open auction and even a blind auction with cryptography on the blockchain, it is also easier for everyone to participant globally without sacrificing the privacy of giving your card information, I don't have anything to hide but would you consider giving a financial company like Equifax your personal information a safe thing?
Online gambling sites can take card just fine using the same card processors as other companies.
It's still reductive, bogus logic at the end of the day.
