Online betting is a growing phenomenon that transcends social class boundaries and feeds into offshore financial systems. Driven by easy access to gambling platforms, this activity can quickly lead to compulsive behaviors and financial problems. The platforms, often hosted in tax havens, avoid stringent regulations, complicating oversight and increasing the risk of addiction across demographics. Efforts to mitigate its impact focus on awareness, regulation, and targeted interventions to address the socio-economic effects of widespread online gambling access.
