Despite the similarity at first sight, trading is different and much better. First, you can only risk the money that you can afford to lose. Second, if the price of the coin falls, you can wait as long as you want for the coin to rise again and compensate for your loss.
But gambling is either a win or a loss, in addition to being addictive which can lead to the loss of all capital and even the sale of personal property.
If we trade via spot there's something left but if we do future trade like in binance maybe the scenario will be different. Although they have the same losing chances but the fact that execution and decision making is different we can all agree that trading and gambling is so different. Its just there are people saying they are the same because they just lose their money and didn't think about the whole picture of the the platform they compare.
