I realize this question was probably raised before, but I believe that the answers might be changing with time, because bitcointalk community grows and because the interests and needs of people can become different in years. I recall a video on addiction that explained that people mainly become addicted because of feeling sad and lonely. When I made a thread about whether gamblers think that gambling addiction has the same reason, the answers differed a lot. Now I am curious what kind of people are gambling here. Are they mainly looking for money, excitement, socialization? Please vote and leave a comment below in case you want to add something to your answer.

I will not deceive anyone, I came here primarily to earn money on cryptocurrencies. I had experience in trading on stock exchanges, so I really enjoyed trading on cryptocurrency exchanges.
Since then, cryptocurrencies have become gambling for me.

And at least in trading, you know the odds and you can mitigate the risk, compare to gambling that you don't have control over it unless you're lucky that day and exited when you're you still have your winnings. For me though, i learn to control and just enjoy the game, if I don't win so be it, I'm no longer the gambler that chases my losses on the next day. If I'm not lucky this day then maybe next week or next month, just saying.

The fact of the matter is, I like it in cryptocurrencies, I get emotions from trading like gambling, but at the same time the risks of losing my money are much lower.
And I wish you good luck.

The major reason why I gamble is for me to earn and not for fun. A good gambler or a dedicated gambler will always gamble for profits and not for whatsoever.

Making money from gambling is hard, and I am afraid that you will lose in the end, and it's better you realize that and don't use more money to bet. I don't think that a good gambler will always search the profit because they will also search a way out from losing money. So if you still playing gambling and get lost, then it's better to quit gambling for a while.

Got your point but in as much a gambler apply the right strategy he must win even though the winnings come in fractions, so, am not scare of the looses because that also make a gambler who he is.

I started gambling out of curiosity because I've seen advertisement here on the forum about different types of gambling games you can play and you don't need KYC document in order to play it in other words anyone can play as long as you have money... At first it's really fun looking at your money to grow, crash and fail again but once you hit a jackpot you're going to be greedy and earn a lot and if you lose you're going to recover your lost and be desperate until you're out of luck.

To make it short... At first I play it as for fun after some time playing it to earn... but now I stopped since It's really risky for me since I can't fully control myself playing.

At first enjoyment and socialization but when it differs it becomes money and greed,this is the way why people becomes addicted and you cant change this

Unless you can prevent from getting involved in gambling,or you can perfectly controlled yourself and emotion then you’re safe in gambling

To be honest with you, no one can perfectly control himself or emotions but the moment a gambler knew what he will face in terms of gambling while he set a break strategy, he definitely know how he can incorporate wise actions to get the full benefit out of the game. However, the key reason for gambling we always be for the sake of money, socialization and enjoyment.

Those commons facts is the reality inside this activity, having some fun with your friends or even inside your own convenience as offer by online gambling, the fact that you are able to control such emotions can keep you to enjoy this way, not unless greed takeover and make things differ from the first time you play, as time will past and possibilities to suffer stress and addictions will follow.

I gambled to make money and I have no any other reason why I gamble. I think many of us if we can be sincere do the samething. Gambling is a game and investing into gambling so be taking as such. You either win or lose depends on what is in your favor. Therefore I don't gamble for fun but to make money.

Interesting when I heard your perspective on gambling, moreover you say gambling is just profit not just for fun. So, I just want to ask how much profit you get during your gamble and how much loss do you get when you gamble? In contrast to most people who gamble to find a safe way, they say gambling just for fun so as when they experience a loss, they will argue not to regret it because for them gambling is just for fun hence experiencing loss when gambling is a disgrace that must be covered.

People are drawn to gambling first by the desire to make money, then they become "hooked on it " after the emotional thrill associated with it, soon it becomes recreational, something you do to get "high" or as an escape from reality, it becomes additive.

So they need to depend on gambling to make money because, in the end, they will be addicted as you say. I don't think that it's better to use gambling as an escape away from reality because this will makes your life worst. But yes, the key reason for gambling was people want to make money, and this is the most reason that we know. And people don't think much about it's painful to become addicting in gambling.

They also need to face the consequences too,if they choose gambling to make money.When people start doing gambling it may bring pleasure when the won mount but when they are in need to win to run their life then it will starts to hurts.We can normally see people get addicted to gambling for beginner's luck but later on they will get drowned.

I am afraid that some people cannot face it and they become frustrated because of losing the money. People do not realize that when they start to gamble, they risk their money to make another winning which they cannot always get. Yeah, I know how it feels because I have the same experiences as them and this is why I don't want to get another experience, and I prevent to get a big loss in the gambling games.

To tell you honestly, I go for gambling for fun and for the money. I felt excited and my body felt happy whenever I won the bet. Gambling is something that makes our life more exciting But of course in the contrary, it can also give our life miserable. Anyhow we have different reasons but to unite the gamblers, I think money is the main reason why we play online gambling.

For sure that the majority of gamblers not only within crypto world but also outside of it do such thing in order to earn money. I am confident that it is the main reason of people even without conducting surveys at all Grin

.

In my case, I admit that I also want to earn few bucks every time I gamble but this is not my primary reason, having fun while spending my leisure time does. And I think having such kind of mindset is good after all because it prevents me to become hungry of money thus avoiding addiction

I don't usually bet on just any game, if it's my favorite team, player and game i will bet but sometimes it depends on the odds, so yeah, i also gamble to profit some money.

Just be cautious that you do not get overboard else you can easily get carried away and want to make more and more money and in such circumstances might lose the money and also can get addicted in the process as it is very lucrative and people find the easy ways to earn money.

In my case, I do gamble because I am seeking and trying new activity which I have not done yet in my younger years and also to do entertain myself and socialize with other people because when you are playing, you have that opportunity to meet other people and somehow make friends with them. I do gamble not just because I am interested with money because I am just a small time better and I just play sometimes so it doesn't matter whether I win or loose because the important thing is that I enjoy playing. That is why I have get to engaged into an online casino so that I can still conveniently play even at home when I have no time to go to casino establishments to play so I can still play varieties of games plus enjoy their great bonus after doing my first deposit.

I have just read a wonderful blog dealing with this topic and it was stated that traumatic events can trigger problem gambling. For many people it is simple way to escape from painful situations and to forget personal issues.
