Introdução:

A aposta esportiva online está ganhando cada vezFlag more popularity no Brasil, especially after the legalization of online sports betting ⚾️ in 2024. With the increase in popularity, there is also a growing concern about the potential social and economic impacts ⚾️ of such activities. In this case study, we will explore the role of online sports betting in Brazil and discuss ⚾️ its advantages and disadvantages, as well as the potential risks and benefits associated with it.

Background:

In 2024, the Brazilian government legalized ⚾️ online sports betting, and since then, the industry has grown significantly. The law No. 14.790/23 established that the Brazilian Ministry ⚾️ of Finance would be responsible for regulating and overseeing the online sports betting industry. The law also created a state ⚾️ monopoly on online sports betting, which means that only the state-owned company, Casa de Apostas, is allowed to operate online ⚾️ sports betting services.

The legalization of online sports betting in Brazil has led to an increase in the number of people ⚾️ participating in sports betting. According to a survey by the Brazilian Institute of Geography and Statistics (IBGE), the number of ⚾️ people who have placed bets on sports online has increased from 2.5 million in 2024 to 5.3 million in 2024.
