The basic scenario until 2030 is the "whitewashing" of online rates: licenses, technical requirements, payment gateways with filtering and regular blocking of illegal sites.
A possible turn is the point legalization of casinos only in five-star hotels (with a positive outcome of the referendum and the subsequent implementation of the law): this will open niche projects in tourist clusters and a combination of "hotel + casino + events."
Stricter advertising rules, limits and self-exclusion tools are expected, as well as the integration of local fintech payments and biometric KYC.
The market will shift to mobile-first and omnichannel (single wallets, cross-promo between sports and lotteries); risks - tax changes, offshore control and macroeconomic volatility.
We analyze why the topic of casinos is back on the agenda: the 2011 ban, the idea of point legalization in five-star hotels through a referendum, expectations for tourism and employment, as well as risks and regulatory filters.
