[ SLANG ][ CRYPTO ][ NOUN ]
The category of decentralized finance applications built explicitly around gambling mechanics — prediction markets, on-chain casinos, and wager platforms — rather than dressing gambling up as investing or yield.
REAL-WORLD EXAMPLE
"Let's be real, this isn't investing, it's GambleFi, a casino wearing a DeFi costume."
LORE & ORIGIN
Blends 'gamble' with the 'DeFi' naming convention, coined to name this category honestly rather than through the euphemistic framing other crypto-gambling products used previously.
