According to the US Patent and Commodity Signs Management Information, International Game Technology (IGT) received a system patent that will allow players to translate cryptocurrency on the "Account Register". Payments in Bitcoin, Bitcoin Cash and Ether are mentioned in the patent application. Working with coins leads as an example of how users will be able to replenish their account for gambling with the help of crypt. Recall, IGT is the largest manufacturer of slot machines in the world, and therefore the prospects for the event are huge.
Note that cryptocurrencies and slot machines have already been associated earlier, but only in isolated cases. For example, in the pub pub of the English city of Leeds there is a retro device with a popular game Space Invaders. You can play for free for free, but for the outstanding progress of users awarded in cryptocurrency. We are talking about the Nano coin, which today is located on the 55th place in the overall coin ranking. Read more about the device in a separate material.
Casino in the world of blockcha
The news commented on the representative of IGT Phil O'Shonessi. Here is a replica, which reflects the position of the company. The statement leads cointelegraph.
That is, experts assume that in the near future, cryptocurrencies will be actively used in this industry. Accordingly, players will approach devices and replenish playing devices and replenish the balance from their own cryptocurrency wallet in a suitable coin.
We believe that it is quite dangerous to engage in this case, because in this case the attackers can learn about the connection of a person with coins. Well, if he won't win in addition, attention to the general balance of the player's savings will be even higher.
The news of the patent appeared on the same day when IGT announced the permission of the regulatory authorities in Nevada to use the deciding players called Resort Wallet to make non-cash deposits in slot machines. The company referred to the coronavirus pandemic, stating that it provides "fewer contacts and a safer" gameplay.
By the way, Las Vegas Casino were among the first who began to use cryptocurrency. In 2014, The D Las Vegas Casino Hotel and Golden Gate Hotel and Casino announced that they would take bitcoins in their stores, but not in the game hall. However, last year, demand among Winning Poker Network players who want to receive payments in Bitcoins sharply grew. Representatives of the chain reported that more than 160 million dollars in a crypt distribute each month.
In other words, digital assets penetrate all spheres of human life, including gambling. The new Patent from IGT should save the players from the difficulties of converting coins in a casino, allowing you to make bets right in Crypt. This is a big step in the popularization of Bitcoin and Altkoinov in the field of gambling business.
We believe that the use of cryptocurrency in gambling raises will create risks for the safety of coins owners. However, in general, the trend is positive. First, the wide audience learns about the features of cryptocurrency and will surely be interested. Secondly, the innovation will accurately appreciate the lovers of games that go to another country for the next session. In this case, they will not have to convert money or engage in other uncomfortable cases.
We hope, over time, the list of industries associated with cryptocurrencies will only increase. Thus, the scope of application of blockchain assets will be able to grow seriously.
