> 10k over a long period is very small compared to what one can lose in a casino night, and casinos do exist.

Casinos are highly regulated. Lootbox are not in most countries. And I'm pretty sure minors can't enter a casino even with their parent's credit card...

Made videogames with paid lootboxes 18+ only, problem solved.
