I’ve noticed more talk online about MENA users engaging in online betting, even casually. Is the region going through a cultural shift around gambling, or is it just hype? Looking for a detailed, current perspective.

Thanks so much — I’ve been wondering the same and hadn’t found anything current that actually looks at this shift seriously. This article looks like it gives some good context on what’s really changing. Just started reading, and it’s already really interesting.
I’ve been noticing that too — there’s definitely more conversation around online gambling in the region than there used to be. The article https://topnews.in/online-gambling-middle-east-and-north-africa-mena-region-2416595 Online Gambling in the MENA Region talks about how cultural attitudes are slowly changing, especially among younger, tech-savvy users. Social media and access to global platforms are playing a big role in shifting perceptions. Still, there’s a lot of resistance from older generations and institutions. It’s a really balanced read if you want to explore how things are changing culturally, not just legally.
