The very first long-term occupational hazard i can think of is the development of High blood pressure...

What can you add to the list of dangers associated with making crypto trading a full time occupation?
Very interesting topic, many people think that since a trader is just sitting down in front of his computer there are no risks but they do exist.

1. Eyesight deterioration. Staring at your monitor is known to deteriorate your eyesight, so a person dedicated to this activity will do so for longer periods of time than the average person which could lead to severe problems on their eyesight in the future.
2. Stress. Stress is known to aggravate a huge deal of other diseases like high blood pressure.
3. Gastrointestinal issues. I remember reading in a book long time ago that the pressure of trading the markets created more gastrointestinal issues in those that traded the markets compared to other professions.
4. Sleeping disorders. Have you ever lost a big trade? Almost all traders have and this can lead you to have problems getting to sleep, if the loss is big enough then it could take you months to recover and the same can be said about your regular sleep patterns, which down the line can lead to many more health issues.

I don't think that's entirely true. Because we do not feel how it is in the field of work. It's just a theory of cause and effect but not necessarily generalizable or also felt by all workers. Good in any field, but not all of them have to enter the world of trading.

I explain, how we reverse the above statement that came out of a medical practitioner who said: for crypto traders, the risk is losing money due to the implementation of the wrong strategy. Does not guarantee daily profits, sometimes have to deal with long bearish markets, and delayed earnings.

Finally, all accuse each other and praise their respective professions. In fact, everything that becomes a job has various levels of risk.

Well going bankrupt and killing yourself is probably the biggest hazard out there besides the 24/7 stress.
What is also unfortunate is that it seems bullruns are much shorter than bear cycles. meaning your happy time is less.

and it doesn't matter where you bought BTC. if you bought at 100, we go to 70k and back to 40k. the 40k hurts. Thats just how humans are. only few can zoom out and see the big picture.

Many occupations are plagued with occupational hazards, that is long term effects of staying in a profession for a long time.

say for instance, For retired mechanical engineers who spent most of their active years working in places with heavy machinery with much noise, you'd notice how they always speak at the top of their voice and may have hearing defects.

For retired medical practitioners, due to long exposure to hospital environment that always has a particular smell, you observe that they may loose their sense of smell.

For Nuclear Engineers, they are at a higher risk of suffering the long term effects of radiation after retirement.
