So often at times, we are always warned not to allow kids to get involved in gambling and one of the major reasons is that gambling is a highly addictive activity, but in recent times we see how young folks are making a positive impact and making money for themselves through the cryptocurrency space.
What is the best age a kid should get involve in online crypto gambling and what is your recommendation for that?

It will always depend on every country's policy in regards to children who should have consent over gambling activity on either local or online. Most will agree on 18+ age as the consent age but what's more questionable is where they'll get that money they're using for gambling? I think the best age for a person to make his vice like gambling be sustained is when he can afford to lose it or he has job that may get those money to be played on a casino.

there is no rule that every child must gamble. Let them choose their own path when they grow up.
and what I want to emphasize is that looking for money and wealth does not have to be a gamble because indeed if the reason you introduce your child to gambling is just to seek wealth it is a big mistake and one of the stupid actions of parents.

your thinking is too directed towards gambling to forget that in crypto there is not only gambling.
Gambling in crypto is the very last thing you should teach because before that you have to tell your child that this is the place to invest for the future as well as to trade.
if the child already knows and understands about this you can only tell more things than that, for example, such as gambling, although I do not recommend things like this to my children.

Just because a lot of young people make money in crypto space doesn't mean that we allow them to gamble, I think that underage gambling is still a problem no matter what medium they use, remember that underage should be the stage where they develop interest and skills.

I guess the normal age that is legal is 18? IMO, even some kids are now earning through cryptocurrency and most of it is earned from NFT games but I think that it's still dangerous for them to get involved in gambling. The thing we needed is a good understanding of the consequences of our actions in gambling, it will lessen kids of getting involved on it since they will be more cautious due the dangerous outcomes of it. Decision making is one of the important things in life, if those kids can't even decide for themselves so what more in gambling, prolly gonna lose a lot because they're not hesitant to play.

Is it really necessary that one needs to go into gambling?

Not like its a crime or anything but gambling is such a daring field of human endeavor that, only the matured minds and financially stable individuals could handle. It could frustrate a person or affect one's mental health completely. I recently viewed a clip of some gambler pleading that his money be given back after losing on a virtual bet. It was sad to see how the money meaned a lot to the individual and yet he gambled & lost it. Unfortunately with the site of gambling where the CEO is far from reach, your money can't be given back, its business. You don't give back a win so, same applies to the loses.

Gambling has a way of affecting your mind and the way one thinks. I saw a thread on the forum lately, I don't want to mention the user but, the user is an under age individual that tried some gambling and confused that, its all he or she could think about while in school. You just want to get home and try out some new games. Either You loose or gain, it drives your thought towards making money or recovering some lost funds.

So, gambling goes beyond age, its maturity and your economic standing.

It depends on the country regarding there laws distinguishing the old age, adulthood, young or youth age, adolescent and child. That is how that line can be drawn. With that given, you can then understand appropriate age that the law stipulate for the young to be considered an adult or knowledgeable enough to make and be responsible for there decision. This is different from country to country depending on the maturity level of the children in the countries. But the age for independence of young person for many countries is from 17/18 years, I think those are the age that is appropriate for young gamblers. And the impact of underage gambling is always negative for the individual because they become addict and abuse it when they play excessively.
