Child Gambling quadruples in UK, Lootboxes name checked as potential cause.

https://www.bbc.com/news/business-46286945 [quote]The Gambling Commission study suggests that 450,000 children aged 11 to 16 bet regularly, more than those who have taken drugs, smoked or drunk alcohol.[/quote] [quote]The commission also raised concerns that close to a million young people had been exposed to gambling through "loot boxes" in video games or on smartphone apps. These can involve a player paying money for an item that is only revealed after purchasing [/quote] Australia, Denmark and Belgium have all defined loot boxes as gambling and it seems the UK may be joining suit.
