There has always been something fascinating about human entertainment. From the beginning of time, us humans, have found ways to entertain ourselves through out history. 

That includes gambling, which appeared in China as early as the 9th century with card games and a century later lotto and dominoes became popular among citizens.

The first known casino was the Ridotto, back in 1638 in Venice, Italy. The casino was open to public, but it was the high stakes and formal dress code that made it accessible only for nobles.

Of course, we’ve come a long way since then. Casinos are now available to everyone. Most casinos have improved their technology over time in ways that our ancestor could have never imagined.

The next big evolution came, without a doubt, from Online casinos. At first, the transition from land casinos into online and live casinos was slow, but with the improvements in ease of access and technology online casinos are at pair with land casinos as a choice for playing games. 

The nature of land casinos, where the combination of mechanic and electronics blend into a fun and inviting atmosphere, makes them tangible and it’s easy for our brains to assimilate what we think that’s actually happening behind scenes. They are physically there, you pull the lever, you hold your cards, you bet your chips, etc. 

But how does that translate into a virtual word? How was even possible to create such experience and make it as transparent as the mortar version of the website? 

Tailoring the experience

Online casinos are more relevant than ever before. The possibility of playing your games from your phone, tablet or PC without leaving your house or at the park has brought many players over the last decade. 

In the age where online shopping, online banking and contactless paying is as common as having coffee, many players find even more convenient online gambling over land casinos. They trust servers with their info, they trust security protocols, and at this point, they are not worried about anything else than playing their games. 

There’s more to it than just the games. There’re servers to maintain, databases to update and store and internet protocols to comply with on top of providing the game’s engine.

One of the major solutions for the above is powered by Random Logic. A software created by Israeli developer Random Logic Games. 

They provide an all-in-one service for online casinos based all over the world, including NJ online casino which provides the best casino games of the market.

Random Logic Games was funded in 1997 and they focus on customer satisfaction.

Their technology has been applied to online slots, for example, which are called Random Logic Slots and their reputation allowed the company to secure massive license deals from well-known and beloved slot brands such as Monopoly and Cluedo. 

They have basic three-reel slots for the purists and more exiting five-reel slots for those that are up for a challenge. Not limited to online slots only, they offer live roulette, baccarat and blackjack. All those games are supported by a live chat to add an extra layer of immersion.

VR is now taking place in live casinos, helping to break the fourth wall and taking the experience to levels never seen before. Once again, none of this would have been possible without the support of the above-mentioned technologies. 

Let’s play fair

The best way to incentive players to move from land casinos to online casinos is as obvious as one may think. You have to make the players feel that the games are fair.

Radom Logic Games submit their games to be audited by eCogra, which is a London-based internationally approved testing agency that protect players. The agency focuses on online gambling and online shopping.

Also, while playing they offer live cameras on the tables and the cards are equipped with microchips that are then interpreted by their software and reproduced faithfully on the player’s screen.

The platform allows different payment methods such as credit cards, play+ and wire transfers. All protected by SSL secure encryption. 

They also accept Paypal as a valid payment method. Back in 2015, interestingly enough, Paypal has acquired Cyactive, an Israeli cyber security company dedicated to make e-commerce safe. It’s a predictive cyber security company that predicts and prevents future attacks.

There’s no doubt that you might have heard everything about the good and bad of cryptocurrencies. There are many different cryptocurrencies being Bitcoin (value exceeds $50,000) and Dogecoin (that funny enough was created after a dog meme), which started with almost cents in value and now are worth a couple thousands more. 

Maybe you didn’t know, there are blockchain casinos that take cryptos instead of money.

Land of technology

Israel is well known for having some of the most successful start-ups since the tech innovation trend began. Many of these companies are referred to as unicorns due to their unique innovation and impact in the tech world. 

Cellphone and chipset companies have locations in Israel such as Apple and Intel, where new technological advances are being developed as we speak to make our phones and laptops faster, safer and more fun to use. 

Other big names resonate such as Yahoo!, Google, Cisco and Microsoft. All located in the same area named Silicon Wadi, as a reference to Silicon Valley, California. 

Also, big software companies have a presence at Silicon Wadi. Waze, Wix, Sodastream and Fiver just to name a few.

Israel is the 3rd country with more companies listed in the Nasdaq, right behind the United States and China. As a matter of fact, Israel has more companies listed than half of European countries altogether. 

Conclusion

It is still amazing that such a small country with only eight million people has achieve so much at so many levels. The country is exporting technology all around, from chipsets to cybersecurity, from webpage design to gambling online. They make all this tech available for us to enjoy our daily lives, help us grow as individuals and as society.
