Topic: How to be invested in Crypto while staying away from gambling? - page 2. (Read 1616 times)

i also following that thread because @yatsan is doing better in his Journey in gambling investments that is running for almost 2 months now.

I think Op is a Gambler thats why he wanted to try His journey here in crypto gambling instead in Trading or Holding.

How about investing your bitcoin in a crypto casino.

you can check his journey, GAMBLING SITE INVESTMENT

A member of the forum sharing his journey investing his bitcoin in different gambling sites, and so far, he is doing better as he is both profitable in BTC and USD value.  Just try to check it out, maybe you'll be interested, and I don't think you'll gamble on a site you've invested, that's doesn't look good.

I do not think that you need additional self-control, because in this case you will lose all the fun. You need to find a way to build your coins in a safe way.
Yes, such a path can be slower, but the main thing in it is that the number of coins will increase and there will be more and more, as you want.
It is important to realize that in the event of gambling you risk reducing your volumes, which is unacceptable.

I lose and win, and I don't care for the money I deposit for gambling.

If you wish to win you need to try, without trying you don't have chances for nothing.

Many gamblers began their journey that way, they used faucets at the beginning since they thought this was an easy way to gamble without spending any money but as they kept gambling and their desire for it grew they could no longer get enough satisfaction by just using the money they got from faucets and they decide at that moment to begin to use their own money, and then as they begin losing they now have the desire to get the money they lost creating a vicious cycle from which it is difficult to escape.

Exactly, I have experience about this before, why I say this. In the past, I can make 2.000 Doge from faucet earning (100 Doge). In a few minutes, I lose them all. Because I think if from 100 Doge, I can make 2.000, I will have a "chance (the trap begin)" to get more, if I'm betting 1.000. This the first time I bet with the deposit money. What happens, I try to make a deposit 5.000 Doge and lose them all without winning, LOL

And congrats to you have already stopped to play a gambling, if you believe yourself, you can do it for a long time. Good luck bro 

You man a cap that when you lose all these say lose about 1BTC a month you stop gambling and then after a month you will once again have a budget of 1BTC. We don't see that everyday. I would only regret betting the coins I have spent if I see the sum of them all in the spreadsheet. I'd rather not and forget the ones that drained.

Sometimes I feel that our whole life is gambling. As for me I trust only Bitcoin, I read about altcoins some years ago, but decided not to invest in it.

I think faucets really is the reason I tried gambling in the first place. Its kind of a win already when you gamble with the coins you got from faucets. You can earn without even spending from your own money.

And, most importantly also avoid gambling faucets that can lure you to do gambling again.

Most gamblers do not see the point of doing something like that but in fact it is critical, it is important to have our funds separated depending on the use we plan to give to them, this is something even professional gamblers have to do in order to not spend money they need to pay for their bills in the case they find themselves on a bad streak, if you can maintain that discipline over a long period of time not only you will keep the capital you have destined to be used as an investment you will also control any urges you may have to gamble compulsively.

I do not have such an issue. I buy an amount of cryptocurrency every month for my gambling habit. At the moment I have stopped doing that as I do not feel like gambling because of the present virus situation.

I do not gamble with cryptocurrency that I have kept for long term HODL or for trading. I keep them seperately till date I have not mixed it up as I maintain a seperate excel file for both of them.

I've been around the crypto scene since pre 2013 pump. Been around blackcoin pumps, pinkcoin pumps (all the color coin pumps), all the country-coin pumps (remember those?), every shitcoin known to man.

I even knew about ethereum (commented on page 4 or 5 on their announcement thread) and was a huge believer in the project. .....but instead of sending btc to their ICO site on a summer day in 2014, I sent it to nitrogen sports with the intention of making more btc to send to their ICO.

Throughout the years, I've done similar things with various alts: Monero, dark-coin (DASH), Cardano, you name it. I had them with hopes of holding onto them to watch their value grow...but couldn't...and gambled it away with 3AM challenger tennis, random soccer matches, or baseball over/unders (though, when I go on a binge, I actually start off pretty damn well, but get tilted the moment I lose a few times).


I'm a big believer in the crypto space but it's difficult for me to hold coins without gambling. The thing is, I have no issue controlling myself when I don't hold crypto. I could go to a casino or wherever and not have any urge to bet with fiat. Idk what it is about cryptocurrency. I just get so into certain coins that I want to make more so that I can get a bigger stack to hodl...but then by trying to get more the quick way, I lose it all.


Anyone feel similar?

How do you combat the urge to gamble with your cryptocurrency?

If the people used to gamble everyday for the stop words will be ignore since in the end of the day once they bored for sure they will comeback again, for sure we experience this and we always regret with the result after the game that we should not gamble for that day.

I can't insert being responsible since when you are addicted gambler provably it needs a lot of efforts to achieve what you really ask since all is long process.

You are right. It's easy to say things that need to be done but hard to do it in actual.

Even the simple term of "stop doing gambling" is not an easy thing to do especially for those who still have extra funds even with the pandemic virus.

Being a responsible person really does have a long process.

That is way easier said than done, on the surface the only thing a person needs to do in order to stop losing their money at the casinos is to stop playing and do something else with their time and with their money, but if you take to time to read the experiences of the members of the forum you will see that is very difficult and this is especially even more true now that there are not a lot of things that you can do and you cannot even see your family as you used to.

It's easy, just don't gamble and control yourself, don't let your gambling addiction or urge within you affect your investment as we are talking about your possible future success here. With gambling, you can mess up your investment like withdrawing your money when it's not yet suppose to withdraw it.

if you feel you don't have the capacity to gamble, just never expose yourself in a gambling sites, maybe delete all your gambling accounts, you'll be safer that way.
