Cricket betting in India operates through both legal and illegal channels, with dark cricket betting referring to the underground, unregulated market that thrives despite strict gambling laws.
In local Indian markets, various products and services have emerged to facilitate this hidden industry. Local bookmakers, known as \“satta kings\“, operate through coded language and discreet networks to avoid detection.
Many local businesses, including tea stalls and mobile recharge shops, serve as collection points for bets. These establishments use everyday transactions as cover for betting activities, making detection difficult for authorities.
The rise of digital payment systems in India has further complicated the situation. Local payment apps and cryptocurrency are increasingly being used to transfer betting funds anonymously.
Local product innovations include coded messaging apps, disguised betting software, and underground betting exchanges that mimic legitimate stock trading platforms in their operation. |
