How many Australians play bitcoin casinos


1) A large audience - but how much does BTC gambling choose?

There are no official statistics on exactly how many Australians use bitcoin casinos. However, general data help to assess the potential:
  • 6. 8 million Australian adults identify as regular players - about 26% of the population.
  • More than 11% of adults have placed online bets in the past 6 months.
  • The total volume of online gambling in the country in 2025 is estimated at tens of billions of dollars.

With 23% of Australians owning cryptocurrency, including BTC, it can be assumed that a significant part of this group is potentially interested in BTC casinos, although there are no exact figures.

2) Why BTC casinos are interesting to Australians

Fast payments and anonymity are attractive against the backdrop of banking restrictions and KYC.
The increase in crypto activity is a significant penetration of cryptocurrencies, especially among young people.
Regulatory gray areas - offshore BTC platforms are available despite local legal restrictions.

3) Market valuation

If we take 23% of cryptocurrency owners (about 5-6 million people) as a basis, and assume that 10-20% of them try BTC casinos, we get about 500,000-1,200,000 players. This is only an indicative estimate - without confirmation from independent studies.

4) Evaluation limitations

There are no direct surveys or studies on BTC casinos (as opposed to general online gambling).
Crypto ownership rates (23%) include any owners, not only players.
Players can use other cryptocurrencies - BTC is not the only tool.

5) The bottom line

About 1 in 4 Australians gamble online, but the exact percentage of BTC casino users is unknown.
Possessing cryptocurrency, a significant part of the population - possibly up to a million players - is potentially involved in BTC gambling.
More specialist research will be needed to get a credible picture.
