suppose you purchased bitcoins worth 10000 dollars when the price was at its peak ($1200) and currently market value is around $575 that would be a bad investment unlike gambling which might give you a return in a short period...so gambling wins

It's stupid to buy when the price have been increasing for weeks, it indicates that the crash is coming soon. But with gambling in casinos you have absolutely no way to predict your outcome, the only thing you know is that odds are against you, because of house edge. If you want to gamble, the best you can do is play poker or bet on sports or other things.

not stupid , it is a good move if you know what you are doing ,
sometimes the price keep increasing instead crashed ,
noone knows , and its like gambling if you keep buying and did not know what you are doing ,
so its really depends on what you want and what skills you have.

No one knows what will be the future price of Bitcoin, so it might have sense to buy it even if its price is increasing and it is also logical if you think that it might crash after these increase, but it is your money so the call is yours. About gambling, it will be better if you play with skill based gambling game because if you have the skill you will more likely win.

Investing in what you have is the safest way to keep what you have and not lose out by participating in risky activities.

hi guys, i bought 1BTC today and i am wondering to gamble or to invest the 1btc?

if to gamble

best site to gamble with a really nice provably fair..

and if to invest.

best investment program wherein no scam.

thank you for your opinions guys

cheers

invest is better idea, just you shouldn't invest in risky and scam ponzi schemes, but to good mining site or so, as gambling is too risky, so you can lose money

of course it is a better idea if you are not planning to invest into some kind of a ponzi, i think that it is better to invest in trading only and nothing else if you want to make big profit

Gambling is not recommended at all because it takes you to loss sooner or later but investment is not this easy as well. You money all will be at stake since it can be won by some lucky guy as it happened in past many times. It is difficult task to find some legit and strong sites online to give your money into their hands. We never know what is going behind the scene with financial conditions of some site since there are lot of expenses and all not always make money.

Not really. Gambling MIGHT give you profit in a short period, but you may loose as fast as you may win. In gambling, it's win or loose everything.

if you think that you are good gambler and a lucky person, they gambling is ok for you because gambling can give you a good profit in a very very short time, but if you think that you cannot make money from gambling then you should choose investment, because there is a little risk of loosing your money in investment.

to me in present to me investment is the best option, specially if you are investing your money in bitcoin, and then hold it for the price increase, i think it will really give you a very very good profit after some time. therefore gambling should be the second option ,

I strongly recommend invest instead of gambling. Many people got broke due to gamble, therefore if we can invest in house, we will earn money in the long term.

Yeah that is a wrong move if people are going to get addicted with gambling. Gambling is not a good thing to get addicted for it.

It is better if you are going to be addicted by means of trading and you are going to get good profit out of it and you are going to learn a lot from it.

But even you gamble and you are going to invest you just need to be responsible for it.

Most people would rather choose trading than gambling since most of us knows already the results on playing gambling which is we lose all of our money. Its far better to do trading even the profits are long but its sure anyway but remember you must play smart on trading because trading has also risk on losing your money if you made a wrong decision.

Yeah, altcoin trading can be very profitable if we have good coins, while investing on casino is also a safe choice, we can earn stable profits. But trading profit is more.

Gambling for me In casino gambling, the "house," or the casino, has a mathematical advantage over the gambler, the player. Odds are that in the long run, the gambler will lose.Many skeptics, and legions of people who have never invested before, regard investing as just another form of gambling. This widely-held, but misinformed view, has kept too many from enjoying the financial rewards of judicious investment in the United States economy, which generally, over the long run, has been profitable.

Invest in which house? in where? do you give this guarantee that if we invest our money we will get 100% profit with our invested money? I don't think so anyone can give guarantee for investment, instead of the owners of the ponzi sites, who gives fake guarantees which never come true..
I don't like gambling. but as the today's situation of investment and 90% of fake, ponzi sites who's main agenda and aim is only and only to steal peoples money and run away. I honestly feel gambling is much better than investment..
in gambling you can at least loose your money infront of you own eyes. and with your own hands. or may be you win double if luck help you.

but in investment you'll never know where you money gone.

You would rather invest than gamble if you're doing it with a casino, since the odds are tipped in your favor. Would you take a 45% chance to win or a 55% chance to win? Obviously the 55% chance.

Gambling and investing in gambling casinos online both have risks. Since amount is very low what OP said he has available to invest or gamble with he can not fully take advantage of the investing. Even if you find some good site but there share some small percentage of profit with investors. The bigger the amount is the more you will receive. I will not invest at all if I have small amount of money.

I prefer to invest. investment is much safer than playing gambling. investing one of which is by trading. I trade altcoin to obtain greater profits.
trading risk is quite small.

Well maybe you are an expert in trading and that's why you are saying that risk is quite small, because from my experience trading is absolutely the same thing as gambling, which means you lose all you have eventually.

It requires knowledge to trade. If you have no knowledge on what you are trading for then it is what you have say, it is like gambling and you are throwing your money away to the others. You need to be more knowledge in order to take money from people pocket.

And a lot of experience. It is hard to make trading profitable if you do not have enough experience. Sometime you easily crumble on pressure when your trade is going the wrong way. The only way to overcome this is to have plenty of experience and a nerve of steel.

It is better if you are going to have pressure in trading rather to be pressured with gambling. But if you are really a gambler and a trader then you are not going to choose only one. Then you just need to manage your money and set your priority first if you are going to put first trading or investing rather than gambling.

If you are bought good in gambling and trading then you should simply choose what makes you happy or the one that you think you can benefit more. Well anyways both are risky but i still prefer to invest in trading

I think most of us hear recommended to do trading but in reality we are all a bunch of gamblers, admit that we are all good in advising to other people as we have the experience on both trading and investing. I do gambling most of the time and trade as well but I am more in love in gambling.

I think the logical answer would be to invest. But investing can also be quite risky, you need good parameters
and research when choosing the investment.

indeed the only ideal answer on this kind question are to invest instead to gamble.

but you must realize this life are not as easy as in the movie or drama , investing money needed a large capital , without large capital you will just wasting time to earn small profit only , while in gambling you have a chance to win bigger with smaller capital.

There are many kinds of investments out there and you cant generalize it all and making them as one. Ponzi and hyip sites are one of investment sites, they are actually a waste of money since they all ended into scam when the time comes that they have enough collected money on their investors. There are other investments like trading, lending service and other any related investments.

Usually ponzi and hyip are scam. So try to avoid that. So far if you have invested in rep casino, you would have gain a lot and there isnt any scam especially with those big casinos. I have invested in several programs and the casino investments are the best investment i ever had. But anything can happen in the future.
