Does the online casino have a gender? Many people think it’s a male-dominated field, but facts say the opposite. This article will show that the female audience is rapidly increasing and determine the kind of quality casino entertainment each gender prefers.
How Many Women Play in Casinos?
The history of the casino goes back to the 18th century. During these times, gambling houses were visited mainly by men. But with the advent of new technologies and going online, the situation in the world has changed.
Gambling statistics (in 2019) report that the total number of women relative to all online casino users exceeds 17.6% in Canada and 45.8% in Australia! It means that almost each fifth Canadian and each second Australian casino player is female. According to the British Gambling Commission surveys (in 2021), 41.6% percent of United Kingdom women were gambling last month. For men, this percentage is just over 43%. At the same time, the average age of women in the casino is 29 years, and for men – 33 years. It vividly demonstrates the real picture of casino gender and refutes that gambling is male-dominated.
Psychology of Online Gambling
After online casinos appeared, this kind of entertainment became much more accessible to females. Like men, they see gambling as a vibrant alternative Universe for a unique experience. According to the YouGov UK research about the reasons to play (in 2021), more than 40% of women and men agreed that this is a common fun activity. Over 27% of women chose that they like to fantasize about winning. Over 20% of men selected it as getting the experience of what they bet on. Besides, five times more men than women identified the casino as a reliable way to show skills and earn money.
Another difference is that women are less dependent on casinos. The British Gambling Commission study found that men are about seven times more likely to have addiction problems. They see the casino as a source of income or competition because of keeping going for the reward when losing a streak. Besides, men’s large bets with aggressive strategies also express it. Women, in turn, play for a long time, bet little, and enjoy the process differently.
What games do men and women prefer?
The main question remains how the preferences of players of different sexes differ. Men love table games such as BlackJack or Poker because they prefer competitive activities and often play according to the chosen strategy. Women choose games of luck such as Lottery or Bingo. In addition, they are attracted by colorful Slots with fruits or any other theme. They rarely act according to a specific plan, so these games are perfect for them.
Some activities appeal to both women and men. For example, Roulette is a game with a moment of randomness but a certain probability of a ball falling out. This combination of sheer luck and clear strategy has proven to be universal in terms of gender casinos.
Crypto Casino and Genders
The above facts argue that men have ceased filling the casino space. But one more variable should be added to this equation – cryptocurrency. Since modern online casinos allow you to place bets in many currencies, the gender distribution, in this case, changes significantly.
The spoiler is that this situation will not change. It is difficult to deny the clear predominance of the number of male crypto enthusiasts. The percentage of women with an account on platforms like BetFury is very low. Although, according to statistics, more than 40% of those interested in buying Bitcoin were women. Therefore, more women will soon play in the casino and bet on cryptocurrencies.
So, we can conclude that women are interested in investing and the cryptocurrency market no less than men. By the way, apart from the 8,000 Slots and Original games with one of the highest RTPs on the market, you can also participate in Staking on BetFury. BetFury has an internal token – BFG. It’s listed on many crypto exchanges: PancakeSwap, Biswap, etc. The token has over 55,000 holders, and more than 3B BFG are in circulation. To start investing, you only need a minimum of 100 BFG.
Communication Ways on Social Media
Social media is one of the most important means of attracting an audience to the casino environment. Among them are Twitter, Telegram, TikTok, YouTube, and others. So, Twitter has 43.6% of women, Telegram has 41.4%, and TikTok has 57%. Let’s now define the relationship between general statistics and gambling.
The BetFury platform has collected data on gender from social media. The study showed that the clear leaders in the female audiences are TikTok (28%) and Twitter (32.09%). Therefore, most women often go to the casino from these social networks.
Analyzing this data makes it possible to identify the content attracting females the most. These are fascinating videos, funny memes, short info posts, and interactive, that is, a news feed with short facts and a visual component.
To sum up, the potential of attracting a female target audience to the casino is great since it’s a high-quality type of entertainment. Women are increasingly interested in cryptocurrency, looking for ways to make money and have a good time. Therefore, the online gambling audience will become more diverse soon, and no one will say that the casino is a male-dominated area.

Shiba Memu, a dynamic new cryptocurrency meme coin supported by AI, is causing a stir as its presale surpasses the impressive $2 million fundraising milestone. This remarkable achievement was further spurred by the recent news it would list on BitMart, a renowned crypto exchange, all within the first month of the presale’s launch.
The inception of the Shiba Memu AI stems from the team’s previous experiences with exorbitant marketing agency fees. This motivated Shiba Memu to develop a self-promoting AI solution capable of adapting to various practical applications.
Presently at $0.021700 per token, Shiba Memu’s price experiences scheduled increments every 24 hours due to the team’s well-crafted smart contract. This mechanism is particularly appealing to presale supporters, as it ensures that the token purchase price remains lower than the eventual listing price on exchanges. For instance, if purchased today at $0.021700, the increase by the end of the 60-day presale would amount to 10%.
Those interested can acquire SHMU tokens via the official Shiba Memu website.
The Surge of Shiba Memu: Unleashing AI Potential

In its nascent stages, the AI employs Natural Language Processing (NLP) and Sentiment Analysis to scour the web, primarily focusing on social platforms, for mentions of Shiba Memu. It tailors its promotions accordingly, transforming the brand from a simple cute dog meme to an amusing and engaging one, infused with a sharp sense of humor. The project’s forthcoming AI dashboards scheduled for Q4 further stimulate investor interest in meme coins with tangible utility.
The project’s tokenomics demonstrate a robust structure, with 85% of tokens allocated to the presale, 10% to exchange listing liquidity, and 5% to development. This allocation empowers SHMU holders to actively participate in the future development of the dApp.
Crypto Community Propels Shiba Memu’s Soaring Engagement
In the recent video shared by influencer, CryptoPRNR, Shiba Memu was featured among the top four cryptocurrencies predicted to perform well in the next bull run. Additionally, Shiba Memu was also showcased as the best meme coin to buy in 2023 on investing website Invezz. This recognition highlights the project’s strategic advancements and AI-driven capabilities, solidifying its position as a competitive player in the crypto market. The inclusion of Shiba Memu in this selection also reflects the growing interest and attention directed towards AI-powered crypto projects within the broader cryptocurrency community.
The Shiba Memu presale is approaching its closing date on the 1st of September. At this juncture, the price is set to reflect an increase of 119% from its launch price, moving from $0.011125 to $0.024400.

Zebec has launched Nautilus, a modular L3 network that supports its blockchain-based global payment infrastructure. Nautilus enables continuous payment streaming and real-time payroll services on a previously impossible scale.
As a first-of-its-kind L3, Nautilus enables more than just instant payments. It can also facilitate Zebec Protocol’s live-payment streaming service at scale, made possible by the fastest EVM environment in web3.
Capable of parallel transaction processing, Nautilus is built for scalability, interoperability, and security through interchangeable modules for consensus, settlement, data availability, and transaction execution. This modularity will have a significant impact on how web3 payment infrastructure is composed and adopted.
“Zebec is helping to create a future where money moves more freely, providing individuals, businesses, investors, and teams with quicker and easier access to funds and tokens,” said Zebec Founder Sam Thapaliya. “Launching the Nautilus Chain, and the new suite of products built on it, is a significant step towards our vision.”
With Nautilus now live, Zebec’s team is set to bring single-side staking and DeFi yields online in select jurisdictions and power ZebecPay – its live streaming web3 payroll services. Zebec is also in the process of launching a traditional payroll app, WageLink, with a planned integration with Circle. With the Nautilus chain functionality, Zebec is able to offer crypto off-ramps directly linked to US bank accounts (via a partnership with CoinFlow) and roll out Zebec Card programs in Asia and Europe. These products and services will augment Zebec’s existing services.
Zebec started as a continuous settlement protocol that enabled real-time payments, or payment streaming, allowing businesses to pay employees and partners in real-time in a tax-compliant way. However, the limitations of existing blockchain technology soon became apparent. Networks were either too slow or too unreliable to keep up with demand. To solve the issue, Zebec Labs created a next-generation blockchain: fast enough to facilitate payment streaming at scale, which could, critically, integrate with Ethereum-based chains.
Originally planned for Zebec’s core DeFi projects for internal payments and value/assets transfer, Nautilus testnet became one of the most prominent testnets in the crypto world. Having facilitated over 50 million transactions, with 400,000 wallets and 3,000 smart contracts deployed in its first 8 months, Nautilus chain has proven its utility and functionality beyond DeFi and opened to projects from other sectors, such as NFTs, Gamefi, etc., thus becoming a “general purpose” L3.
A huge upside to Nautilus’ modular system is that it gives developers the flexibility to configure the “chain stack” they use to build their dApps. A modular chain uses interchangeable modules for consensus, data availability, settlement, and execution. Each of these layers can be configured to developer needs or optimized based on the dApp being serviced. Especially at the execution layer, customized rollups can be deployed that optimize for privacy or scalability, or decentralization — whatever is required by the dApp.
Modular chains allow for infinite horizontal scaling and greater levels of interoperability. Since developers build from the same pool of modules, code is safer, more battle-tested, and easier to connect. More rollups and parallel chains can be deployed to increase block space and throughput effectively. Nautilus is a pioneer in this new type of blockchain, and its architecture will permanently change how blockchains are built and bring them into the real world.
At launch, Nautilus’ settlement layer is built using Solana’s VM, MOVE, and its execution layer on Neon EVM using Solidity smart contracts. Data availability is stored off-chain using Celestia. Nautilus’ initial default execution layer will use optimistic rollups, but the team plans to transition to zkRollups for faster settlements, privacy, and even higher levels of scalability.
Nautilus is built with Celestia and Eclipse empowering modular chains. Through Celesita, Nautilus allows projects to tailor their consensus and settlement layers. Eclipse allows builders on Nautilus to deploy customized rollups on their execution layer.
The result is a chain with Solana-like speeds but with the security and decentralization of Ethereum. According to its engineers, Nautilus has been tested up to 3,000 TPS, but the team expects the number to increase with the transition to zkRollups. By having such a high TPS, Nautilus chain provides a platform that can keep up with the demands of the real world, opening the door to decentralized markets for financial instruments and assets, such as stocks, bonds, real estate, and tokenized real-world assets.
Thanks to Nautilus, Zebec can now operate on a much larger scale. Businesses can pay employees and partners in real time through live payments or payment streaming. Zebec’s goal isn’t merely to provide more efficient payment services; it’s to onboard millions of new users through user-friendly, secure payment apps and new use cases.
Zebec’s innovation paves the way for pay-as-you-go payment plans for streaming services, car-sharing platforms, gyms, residential clubs, and more. It enables potential new business models and applications not yet created. As Zebec continues to innovate and grow its ecosystem, it invites developers and founders from around the world to join it in creating a more connected, efficient, and accessible financial future.
About Zebec
Zebec enables real-time and continuous streams of payments and financial transactions for payroll, investments, and more. It was founded in 2021, with investments from Circle, Coinbase, Solana Ventures, Breyer Capital, Republic, and Lightspeed Venture Partners, among others. Zebec already services hundreds of companies, running thousands of continuous payment streams and bringing the blockchain to our day-to-day lives.

AllianceBlock today unveiled Nexera Exchange, an innovative new decentralized exchange platform incorporating an advanced on-chain order book protocol to provide deeper and more accessible liquidity across a diverse range of cryptocurrencies and tokenized assets.
Nexera Exchange builds on last year’s launch of AllianceBlock DEX, which harnesses the power of a cutting-edge Automated Market Maker to minimize the risk of impermanent loss for liquidity providers. Designed to meet the demand for a more streamlined user interface and optimized liquidity mechanisms, Nexera Exchange acts as an intermediary layer, making AllianceBlock DEX more efficient and user-friendly.
DEX platforms have vast potential but struggle with challenges around the user experience and operational fluidity, in contrast to the highly efficient experience of centralized exchanges. By leveraging an innovative on-chain order book protocol, Nexera Exchange bridges this gap, providing a decentralized trading experience that rivals the very best CEX platforms while amplifying the core strengths of AllianceBlock DEX.
Enhanced DEX Liquidity With Uniswap
Nexera Exchange’s integration with the Uniswap protocol allows it to leverage the rich liquidity of Uniswap V3 and execute limit orders seamlessly while ensuring the best possible price. Ultimately, Nexera Exchange intends to become an on-chain limit order book aggregator that facilitates efficient liquidity access from across multiple DEXs to deliver the most optimal decentralized trading experience. The integration with Uniswap allows users to place market orders and gain deeper insight into available liquidity at various price points for trading pairs.
In its next phase, Nexera Exchange will add the ability to execute limit orders. By leveraging its limit,on-chain order book, limit orders will be securely stored on chain, with the protocol determining the optimal match from either the order book itself or Uniswap V3’s liquidity pool. By transitioning from market orders to limit orders, users gain heightened control and deeper price insights, creating a more efficient trading environment.
A key element of this transformation will be the addition of a stability staking pool to incentivize traders to actively participate in the platform. Users will be able to stake their NXRA tokens and earn a portion of the trading fees from Nexera Exchange on a continuous basis, creating a mutually beneficial environment for all participants. The integration of NXRA as an incentivization tool will improve the overall experience for Nexera Exchange users while augmenting the platform’s growth and liquidity, and providing additional utility for the token itself.
Advanced DeFi Primitives
Traders will also gain access to an array of new DeFi primitives in a forthcoming release that combine to deliver an enriched toolkit for advanced DeFi trading strategies.
The new primitives include Staking-Enabled On-Chain Order books, a novel approach wherein users can stake their orders on the blockchain to provide liquidity to the protocol, distinct from the standard liquidity provision model. Other innovations include Order-Triggering Matching to eliminate the continuous hustle of order matching; Yield-Optimized Staked Orders to generate passive yield; and Dynamic Range Order Book Provision to ensure optimal order execution and capital utilization.
Building A Secure & Compliant DEX Experience
Nexera Exchange’s transformation will gradually redefine the DEX trading experience to support the concept of tokenized asset trading, enabling real-world assets (RWAs) to be traded with the same ease as digital tokens. The evolution of Nexera Exchange is designed to establish a fully transparent and compliant platform that’s trusted by traders and investors alike while aligning with regulatory standards.
In the coming months, Nexera Exchange will introduce critical functionality including decentralized KYC/AML procedures and gated liquidity pools to verify users and enhance security, together with zero-knowledge proofs for users to comply with KYC without revealing their personal information. The platform will also introduce Fractionalized NFT Representation technology to support the tokenization of RWAs, followed by unique yield-generating DeFi strategies for users to provide liquidity for RWA fractions. Finally, Nexera Exchange will implement high-level security mechanisms such as multi-factor authentication, advanced cold storage and consistent security audits.
With Nexera Exchange, AllianceBlock’s goal is to entice financial institutions and institutional traders to enter the DeFi industry with measures that minimize risk and achieve the highest standards of compliance for the safe and secure trading of tokenized assets.
