The future of the industry

Until 2030, the basic scenario is the continuation of the policy of a complete ban on gambling.

The focus of the state will remain on digital control: blocking sites and applications, restricting financial transactions related to gambling, and coordination with communication providers and banks.

Advertising and promotional gambling services will remain illegal, and law enforcement will be tough on organizers and intermediaries.

In parallel, increased prevention is likely: campaigns about the risks of illegal online, parental control tools, content filtering and education in educational institutions.

Legal leisure alternatives - sports, cultural events and video games without cash bets - will be encouraged as socially safe replacements.

There are no prospects for the legalization of commercial gambling in the foreseeable horizon.
