I have never seen any place, real life or online, embrace gambling as much as this forum has. A little bit of gambling is okay but when you do it with the hope of making money it becomes a problem. The house ALWAYS wins. I see so many people here throw their money away at these online casinos.

I just banned myself from the casino IRL yesterday after losing $40 at Blackjack. I got 18, and the dealer got 20. See? It doesn't matter how good you are at the game, the odds are always stacked against you.

If this forum were embracing drug addiction, don't you think it wouldn't look as good?

I gamble just for fun and I know that I can control myself from falling into this addiction.I always recommend people to gamble for fun and to realise that they can't make a stable income with this.
By the way,there are people here,who bet 2-3 btc or more on dice/crash games.This is insane...

Got a nice chuckle out of this one. I think the best way to separate yourself from gambling is to avoid this forum entirely.
There will be people who claim this forum doesnt contribute to their habit but I would beg to differ.

May be im one of addicted gambling here, but its not too serious. Almost everyday im in online casino, but if i have no free time its no problem. I call addicted because everyday im there (if i have free time for sure).
Addicted or not its depends how to see it from which side, and different with drug you'll do everything to get it if you addicted.

If you are seriously not too much addicted gambler, then well good. Actually we already discusses a lot in this forum about gambling addicts and i feel that it is our fault that we become addicted and in the end we simply say that gambling is bad he become me addicted, without thinking that may be we are bad that's why we lose our money. Well, Gambling is a game and addicted a habit.

For me that gambling game depends on our perspective in responding. when we consider gambling as a source of income then it will be a problem, consider gambling as entertainment. When we consider gambling as an entertainment, it will make us comfortable and we can avoid the bad effects of addiction. Make sure we can play comfortably and so our thinking will feel much better and full of calm.

It's OP's own interpretations and like what you have said it's depends from one interpretations to another, embracing gambling in such points of view
might differ from people/gamblers ways of dealing with it, you have to be more wise and careful engaging yourself to this activities as effects might
harmed you if you can't handle it properly.

Maybe because I've seen a lot of gambling discussion about gambling addiction and people are so active giving their opinion.
What's good here is even if we are addicted we can still seek help, that if we are also willing to share, with a more opportunity to gamble in crypto, it cannot be avoided that we will become addict especially if we spend too much in online world.

I won't say this forum the number one online site that embrace gambling because it was created and dedicated for every business setting which have to do with blockchain and crypto currency. Just because you make lost when you gamble doesn't mean this forum embraced gambling addict and if you ask me you seems not to know the rules of the game you played.

Exactly, when people lost in gambling they tend to say bad words about it which can discourage the new comers who recently joined gambling.

And about this forum, this is a best place to know all about gambling sites and gambling techniques. There is a lot of good information. You only need a positive mind to learn it.

That's right. We don't know if they are an addict or now. But we know that we like playing gambling Wink

But I admitted that many people become addict to gambling especially if they can found an easy way to play and with the cryptocurrency, it will give that easy way, and they can get online everywhere. As long as we can control ourselves, the chance to become addicted will minimize too because we can handle our mind to not going deep in the gambling games. This forum only facilitates people to play gambling, and the next thing that people should do is only realize that playing gambling too long can make them addicting and lose their money.

I think this forum not allow the drugs we all know that drugs is not good. Your true some of people here try their luck in gambling even they didn't notice that they lose a lot of money. I have a friend that so addicted to online casino and she didn't notice that she almost lost her money, she's stop online casino now maybe she realize that gambling in online casino is not good for her.

If you were going to compare the number of addicted gambler in physical casino. Sure thing they will outnumbered gamblers here. The reason I see why it seems you think that way is because stories of different gamblers has been discussed here publicly while in outside, they are keeping it in their own.

To me that is not a problem and we can actually gamble to make money. I have some guys in my country and the have been living on football betting and they are living will so I don't see anything wrong with it. However becoming addicted to gambling is what I think is bad as you will always live a frustrated life.

It's because this is a crypto forum. Did you know that the first recipient or the first industry that take advantage of blockchain is the gambling industry? So don't be surprise if you find lots of gamblers around this community.

You might see it this way because with cryptocurrencies as this forum caters to its users makes it easier to gamble with then lets say going to a casino in real life to gamble.
You need transportation to get there then pay for parking then eventually pay for something to eat outside your home.
These expenses do build up and most would want to use these funds to bet with instead of paying for these things.
Just my point of view of your reaction to the section of forum whose focusing towards the members who gamble here is all.

Addiction, generally is bad thing. But people get addicted for something like gambling i think it is not a big problem since they can control their finance. Because addicted wouldn't make us crazy and do bad thing to make our pleasure.

This will always be the fact that more and more losing stories will be anytime more than winning stories as people lose more than winning . So people should be aware that those who just play to win will not be able to always win and end up on losing note most likely .

Well this is the bitcoin forum that we are talking about and all sorts of people from different countries are active here. What do you expect? A little bit of gambling is what you consider having self-discipline and it may help the individual avoid losing tons of money. The house will always win depending IF you do not have any self-discipline and control over your addiction.

The forum never embraced gambling and it never convinced people to do gambling as well. This forum is an avenue for business people to set-up their gambling business and it never convinced anyone to play as everything is subject to our free will and discretion.
Both gambling and drug usage stem from the same problem- which is ADDICTION. Search other posts and there are a ton of support posts and messages on how to overcome addiction.

By the way, i read somewhere that decentralized gambling platform pay gamblers. Maybe this would be a new and productive way to gamble in the future.

It is not that here are a lot of addicted gamblers rather it is that because bitcoin facilitates so much gambling and KYC/AML is not a problem in many online crypto casinos is the reason why you will see this high number of gamblers. Gambling addiction exists anywhere in the world but here is the only place the persons are anonymous and can share their ideas freely.

Addiction doesn't come from this forum.

yes, we must distinguish between gambling and drug addicts. if some gambling addicts lose a lot of money, they are less exposed to the risk of mental damage. but drug addicts are more at risk of developing mental illness because the price is expensive and he must always use it.

If we know that certain gambler, we can but that is hard unless you can always see him gambling.

Gambling addiction or Drug addiction, they have the same negative results and that is the disease or the disorder of the individual's brain. It is said to be a disorder of the brain, I am not a doctor but I can agree with that. We should not compare these two whether what is worst or what is better instead we should raise the awareness of it to help the people with those disorders.

People here are playing gambling or not, it depends on them, and I am sure that when they were playing gambling, they know about the consequences of losing the money. We learn about gambling games by sharing what we know. Many of us are regular gamblers, but the others don't play gambling too often. But I am sure that there are people who can quit his/her addicting to gambling because of this forum.

And if there is a person who was still addicting in gambling, maybe he can learn from here so he can get a lesson on how to quit from gambling. I am sure that if he can learn from other people about solving the gambling addiction, he can get positive things from this forum because this forum is not talking about gambling games.

Drug addiction?
No, just gambling. And no one tells anybody to go be addicted with gambling. We are just promoting it. It is for fun and not for something to make as a living.
Me, I play everyday before but controlled myself afterwards and just playing every week.
Whenever I lose all the funds that I have which is just an excess from my budget and my savings, I will stop and then just look for the other week to maybe get it back somehow using another set of money which is just another excess.

Somehow, that way I am having fun.

Gambling can really be never consider nor compared with drug addiction.Yes, it can give out possibilities of addiction but wont really be that similar to drugs which would really destroy
not only your emotions,self awareness, decision making and most of all you are destroying your own body unlike on gambling where this is an entertainment thing and the only
problem is that most people get addicted to it already coming to a point where they dont know how to handle their funds and losing it all but still keeps on playing.

It still boils down to self-control. And I don't think that we can call this forum embracing drug addiction. Yes, there are a lot of gamblers here but I don't think the majority is being addicted, some just wanted to enjoy and have some fun playing their favorite games here. And I'm sure everyone also knows the odds are against us, but they wanted to take the risk like you. So if you don't like to lose then quit gambling for good.

Well, you can't blame the forum for having this kind of people because firstly, this forum is made for everyone. It's not just for promoting the projects but also to share your knowledge, experiences and more. The forum is not a problem here but those people who misemploy the gambling in the wrong way. As a matter of fact, gambling is not supposed to be used to earn profit but rather it should be used as entertainment. Probably I know you were all aware that you could only win in online casinos with having a low percentage of winning hence, using it as a source of income would be a terrible idea. Besides, you could not classify the people in this forum an addict for just the reason of they're using online casino upon their signature. Therefore, not just because there's a lot of online casinos that were promoted in this forum it doesn't mean that they are all gambling addicts. Gambling can be happy sometimes but remember don't abuse it. By the way, why don't you check this site.

It would be hard to get rid of this bad habit right? Then, what could be the best solution to prevent the player out of the addiction? Some other says you can rid out this habit by just distracting yourself into other habit like sport or other form of entertainment activities that does not involve money.

Vaguely yes, it will be difficult to get rid of this bad habit but you don't need to leave gambling just to entertain yourself if it really makes you amuse. All you need to do is just lessen the amount of money you will use in gambling, use the amount that you can afford to lose. Avoid the things will make you devastated.

Well, you can't blame the forum for having this kind of people because firstly, this forum is made for everyone. It's not just for promoting the projects but also to share your knowledge, experiences and more. The forum is not a problem here but those people who misemploy the gambling in the wrong way. As a matter of fact, gambling is not supposed to be used to earn profit but rather it should be used as entertainment. Probably I know you were all aware that you could only win in online casinos with having a low percentage of winning hence, using it as a source of income would be a terrible idea. Besides, you could not classify the people in this forum an addict for just the reason of they're using online casino upon their signature. Therefore, not just because there's a lot of online casinos that were promoted in this forum it doesn't mean that they are all gambling addicts. Gambling can be happy sometimes but remember don't abuse it. By the way, why don't you check this site.

I see so many people here throw their money away at these online casinos.

Well, some do afford it. And for the one playing only the amounts he affords it's a great way to spend time, you can't deny it.
Some spend tiny amounts (sometimes from faucets or received from winners) hoping for the big hit. Most of what those spend is time. You have to comprehend that one can wager even 1 satoshi, much less than at a traditional casino.
Of course, there are also addicts. Those are the ones with a big problem. And those need our attention, understanding and, most of all, help (of course, not with more money to gamble).
But how many? I don't know... I hope not that many...

1 satoshi is still money however. Remember that saying "a satoshi saved is a satoshi earned". I understand that most crypto investors are taking a risk, but remember crypto is the way of the future. One bitcoin may be worth trillions 30 years from now,

There's a good logic there mate, same thing with savings, if you can save s single penny instead of wasting it then it can turned to something big after some years, those who can afford losing their money around are also thinking that what if they win they can easily doubled their money in a short period of time, sadly that's also the big reason why there's a lots of gambling addicts as principle in life has been like this.

I would not put drugs and gambling on the same page.

Once you are a drug addict you are harming your body and mind. You are taking substance but a gambling addict is harming his mind. The physical affect is less here.

You can not take drug just for fun but you can gamble for fun.

Anyway, there will be many more difference. Point is gambling addict and drug addict is not the same in my eyes.

yes, we must distinguish between gambling and drug addicts. if some gambling addicts lose a lot of money, they are less exposed to the risk of mental damage. but drug addicts are more at risk of developing mental illness, because the price is expensive and he must always use it.

I just banned myself from the casino IRL yesterday after losing $40 at Blackjack. I got 18, and the dealer got 20. See? It doesn't matter how good you are at the game, the odds are always stacked against you.

If you only play in the casino and realize the house always wins, why don't you try sportsbook gambling? Your decision to ban yourself from gambling is good, but when you still support gambling with using a casino signature, I don't think it looks good. Gambling depends on how you control everything well, when you play with money that you can't lose, then you should be aware of it and you don't have to continue to gamble. But when gambling is only played with money that can be lost and for fun, I think gambling is not a problem for your finances and life because you are free to leave whenever you want, different from drugs that are difficult to avoid when you become an addict.

It's the reality that people here loves to gamble and the feature that crypto's are offering to the devs/operators are very different from the usual fiat gambling that we have as we grow. No one would love to lose and everyone has his/her own determination to take back what has been lost(in gambling).

Well , if you conclude with that, it can stand as your opinion but I don't think it is really correct to adduce that. I would have you know that gambling is peculiar to people generally these days because people are looking for source of income or additional means of money. So that is the real fact both online and physically, it is not only peculiar to the forum.

Illegal is illegal except gambling where it has some exception to some countries so I wouldn't put drug addiction on this forum because it is on a different genre. Well, as you can see there are lots of gamblers here but those gamblers were just a fraction of the world population. Just accept the fact that gambling is always a part of our life, as you said you were once addicted to it then you just ban yourself to any casino because you will never win versus with the house.

There's a ton of gamblers online because the minimum bet is lower than an irl casino and you don't have to spend a dollar to win big. Others become addicted because they have too much time on their hands and couldn't get a hold of themselves whenever they start losing.

Well, the number of forum members are getting larger and well in fact that there are a lot of categories we need to consider.
Gamblers in the forum are getting larger today because dApps are so much promising that they don't need to go the casino to play and bet. Honestly, these people are so much into the gambling the only thing is that cryptocurrency does not offer a great gambling platform before and the gamblers focused on trading and volatility of bitcoin. But today, the online casino is getting more matured and it is enough to convince people to gamble online.

I joined the signature campaign because it was the only campaign available.

It just goes to show how truly this forum is addicted to gambling. I see so many advertisements for casinos here, every second or third programming job I get is for a casino and so forth.

I only associate myself with casinos here because they are so rampant on this forum.

It's so awkward to see one wearing a signature and at the same time not promoting it. As a gambler i had the opportunity to promote many casinos website even though not an addict of gambling. There has been threads about ways of handling gambling addiction in the forum and cautions has been given in most of the gambling threads.

Here people talk more than they gamble, it`s a first thing, second is that most of the gamblers from this forum gamble with free money, or money made here on forum or some other site, service, rarely people give money from their pocket to gamble. You can notice that in their comments about gambling. Many of us here advertised gambling sites, just some of us actually gambled a lot with higher bets than 1 satoshi.

Problem gambling breeds lies, theft, suicide, and ruins lives. Just like drugs funnily enough.

There's plenty of people who can take it or leave it but the normalisation of gambling in recent years must have fucked up millions of lives that would otherwise have been untouched by it.

First of all Gambling should ONLY be treated as a recreational way of unwinding stress or play for FUN

Using Gambling as a method of making money is a different story i know some people are making money in this way but majority are losing not only money but their family, friends, cars, houses due to gambling.

Its good that you self regulate yourself in entering casino's after losing some money! and this is a good sign that you still have control over your emotions in losing money in a casino.

Drugs are extremely prohibited in most of the part of the world and will never be accepted as part of the forum ethics. Accepting or Implementing drugs as part of the forum, will not yield anything good as this has a great effect to human life compared to gambling.

Sure, addiction is an addiction! No matter what is your poison, it has the potential for being mentally and physically harmful.
