Abstract

This final paper analyzes the performance of online casinos and their promotion through digital influencers on social media, focusing on one of the most significant casinos on the market, called Blaze. The approach begins with a historical analysis of the prohibition of gambling and the operation of casinos in Brazil, as provided for in the Law of Criminal Offenses. The emergence of new forms of casinos, now virtual, such as Blaze, which has reached a level of great popularity in Brazil, is examined. The paper explores the distinction between gambling and sports betting, regulated by Law No. 14,790/2023. The role of digital influencers in promoting the activities of these virtual casinos is also analyzed, and then a conclusion is drawn about the best legal treatment to be applied in this scenario, in order to reach a possible liability for the suppliers involved, including professionals who work on social networks, in accordance with the Consumer Protection Code
