With gambling you can never trust who is calling the shots (even if they say so)

With collecting, the hardest part is holding on to them if the price increases temporarily - keep holding & who knows how much profit you'll make. Buying crypto and selling at a slightly larger price is the hardest temptation to overcome.

This is true, you will never know if you will win or not if you are to gamble your hard earned BTC. And more likely if you are not that lucky, you will lose all of them.
Collecting is better and safer way to make your stash grow. You need a certain self restrain in order for you to accumulate succesfuly. We can see the tempation if the price increase to sell them but, having a goal for the maximum amount you need to collect before spending or encashinig them and the amount you will be encashing them is good.

This past week i was doing both. I gamble with other crypto currencies and i am collecting Bitcoin in my Bitcoin wallet for safe keeping and for price to go high. I get Doge coin through exchanging it to Bitcoin and i double my doge coin then exchange half again to Bitcoin .That's how i gamble and collect crypto currencies.

up to now i was struggling to collect and hold for having. and now i will use it in gambling and so many other healthy activities. i will change some of them in to my local currency as we cannot directly use bitcoin here. so as to do some shopping.

Newbies are seen to gamble whatever they earn daily for increase in balance. They might lose what they earn. Some advanced players keep collecting and saving their balance and make an appreciable sum. Which is apt for you? What do you do?

i always keep what i earn and for gambling i have a separate stash that has a fixed amount for each week in it and i only gamble with that much bitcoin and nothing more. that way i am keeping my gambling habits under control and i don't lose much in the process.

Well thats good for you but for me is different since i need money on weekly basis so my little winnings are intended to use for cash out and i dont really want to left my coin stuck in gambling site becauseni dont want to lose money if they will be bankrupt and also i dont really gamble with alts because i dont want to stake some of them, i'm a fan kid with BTC.

Collect all the crypto currencies youve got is the best way to gain some profit from the net. But, dont forget to always look at the price fluctuation. Convert it to your local currency when the price looks too high to you

If you covert to fiat at the right time you can reduce gambling loses as well. Then gamble and collect winnings.
Some crypto you can collect for free so it's a good idea and investing only costs your time.

Yes, you said it. Collection always does not make us profit. It might be slow and value of BTC might fall

I keep telling myself to just collect all Bitcoin i get from many sites including the payment i get in signature campaign. But everytime i have Bitcoins in my Wallet i always send it in gambling wallet . I can't resist the urge to play and have fun in gambling. The result of this action is at the end of the day i don't have bitcoin left and just wasted my 1 week earned Bitcoin.

Yes, you said it. Collection always does not make us profit. It might be slow and value of BTC might fall just as we see in halving. In that case, all these collecting were in vain . However, your method seems genuine and yes, negative profit is impossible with no risk but a great man said, " If you take no risk, you will never win something big"

many people get poor from the first option: gamble, and many people get rich from the second option: collect. sorry, i choose the rich path, and it's funnier.

Actually it depends on how dare do you take the risk, if you are dare enough to take some risk gamble your money (high risk high return) and you will have possibility to lose everything or earn good but if you are not dare enough take second choice (really slow but sure). So it is your choice to choose, because both is really worth to take

Yes in gambling many gamblers become very sick I agree on this. But only a few people can become rich in gambling. But those are made coins from Jackpot games. Not usual games because in regular games we don't have that much chance to win our bet. I usually keep my coins in my wallet I will not lose more coins in gambling.

I gamble with bitcoins and I also accumulate bitcoins by buying, sig/av campaign as well as from gambling(mostly poker) winnings.

My bitcoin gambling bankroll is separate from the rest of my bitcoin hodlings. Both are independent of each other.

Well, it was pretty nice to do both. I kept about 75% of my bitcoin on a wallet and put 25% on any gambling site ( often put and play on PD ). There are certain instances where I got so lucky and have earned a lot from that 25% bitcoin capital. Winnings will be put on my wallet and re start betting again using the 25% starting amount.

The reverse is true too. Many people gamble and win big while some with 10-20BTC balance hardly collect 0.02BTC in 3-4 months. However, your opinion should not be questioned. Thank you for your valuable response

Your right but its more risky if you gamble than in collecting and save it for a long time making more profit if you hold for too long..
So i prefer to collect if you want to make rich in the future. just collect and save and you will see your bright future..

Quote from: bithasher on July 07, 2016, 02:19:38 PM

In gambling if you want to make profit then you need heavy weight bankroll on back to strength you. A big bankroll and playing sensibly is key to get lucky most of the time. Bitcoin doesn't offer this opportunity to have big bankroll as it is too expensive to collect. I have played many times with crypto currencies and over all made much more than with what I started.

Quote from: Daffadile on July 07, 2016, 02:18:01 PM

I try to collect but I end up gambling mostly. Though I normally break even so I don't make nor lose money. But winning feels nice xD
I try to collect currency that I believe in and horde them. If it is a POS that is great if not it's ok as long as it has potential. Also keeping different wallets other than btc makes it harder for me to gamble it away and be bad ^^

Contradicting thoughts people. You are gambling the moment you risk any part of your money. It is called gambling and not collecting. The definition of gambling is, " Gambling is the wagering of money or something of value (referred to as "the stakes") on an event with an uncertain outcome with the primary intent of winning additional money and/or material goods. Gambling thus requires three elements be present: consideration, chance and prize."
I believe what you mean is play for estimated profit and keep going on unless required profit is obtained. It is gambling
Good luck you all

I am big collector of Crypto-Currencies and that is only thing what I do with those. Even there on many sites I have possibility to use few of them as payment option but I never did this thing. I gamble only with Bitcoin since I came to know for online casino. Bitcoin is best for this purpose so why should I bother myself with other currencies.

I also think gamble is very good option to increase the quantity of crypto currencies because some coins are not valuable anymore, this will be good decision to use them to play on online casinos with these crypto currencies because when we have very good quantity of any coin than we can place big bets easily.

I do gamble as well as collect some reasonable amount because this is also one shape of money as well. I already have shitload of many crypto-currencies which are collected by investing money in those. What I have point of view is clear you can not make huge profit from everything so some of them will bring huge profit at some point rest less and some not at all.

Newbies are not the only one who gambles whatever they earn, high ranking members too but high ranking
members handle they're earned coins well and using what they learned to multiply their earned coins.
just like the others i gamble what i earn, but first ill save some of it and then trade some of it, i'm doing
this to create a circulation of my coins and earn some in the process and not just wait for bitcoins price to increase.

Quote from: ?? on ??

Collect then gamble. So far I have a positive balance, but I think I should stick only to more skill-based games like sportsbetting.
I have earned like 0.2 BTC via gambling*, so I cannot speak against it Tongue

.

* Gambling my money, I have earned a bit more with bonuses, betbacks, etc.

We are just the same that collecting then gamble.. its hard to deposit a real money into gamble because it may lose even your salary for your job every week.
Yeah its still the best to choose skill base game which is sports betting because its easy to predict than the other game..

I had a pretty good run during the period of February to May, then I went to vacation, but now I have restarted again from yesterday. For those who gamble without thinking, this is a clear invitation to them to start gambling with analysis and critical thinking rather than just going blind with their choices.
