The Short History Of The Online Casino Industry

For many of us, a world without online casinos may seem today like a pretty boring place. Millions of gamblers spend each day hours at online gambling sites, playing their favorite games, chatting with virtual friends and winning money. Nevertheless, it wasn't always like this, as the online casino industry exists for only 10 years, practically nothing when looking at "real" casinos. Before the "online revolution" begun, players who wanted to play casino games had to travel all the way to their nearest casino, sometimes not even in their same country! These days, all you need is a computer and an Internet connection.

In fact, even when the first online casino sites started appearing, they weren't so successful and had many troubles trying to attract gamers. People were afraid of playing and depositing money online, even it meant playing from the comfort of your own home, whenever you feel like it. Nowadays, those problems have practically disappeared, as online transactions are considered super-safe, thank to modern and complex encryption techniques.

As you probably know, the online casino industry is considered today one of the fastest growing Internet industries. Hundreds of online casinos exist, along with several other companies, providing games or other necessary software. The day when those online casinos will totally substitute the brick and mortar ones seems pretty far away right now, but that's certainly a scenario that should be considered. After all, nobody thought 10 years ago that online gambling games would turn out to be such an enormous success.
