Can cryptoassets be used at Yokohama Casino?

The payment option often used at casinos for playing casino games is often credit cards.

 
You can either get cash from your credit card at the cashier in the casino or withdraw cash from ATMs equipped within the casino. Those ways are common.

 
However, credit card payments can be billed later like a month or two months later and also there’s a risk of personal information leakage, so it is convenient but not the perfect payment option.

In that circumstance, the new payment system as an alternative in recent years is the cryptoasset.

 
Cryptoassets still fluctuate everyday as of 2018, so it seems far off for it to become like cash and credit cards, but major IT companies or each country’s major banks may develop and issue their own unique cryptoasset which can function as a currency instead of the US dollar, Euro and Yen by the time Yokohama Casino opens in 2023 or later.

 
If that becomes reality, then all we need would be a smartphone to save and pay money instantly as well as reassurance that security wise there will be no concerns over personal information leakage with the latest model cryptoassets developed.

However, the current major cryptoasset Bitcoin has dropped down in usage as there are more users all around the world and they don’t have a system yet as an alternative to cash, so cryptoassets are less likely to be installed at Yokohama Casino unless the function of Bitcoin itself improves.

 
At the same time, Wechat Pay and AliPay beyond Chinese UnionPay and such electronic money options can be an option for payment if the users keep coming.
