I guess investment is also a gamble. It is about your trust in bitcoin. Will you trust your fiat to a online currency? By doing this you already risked your money. It may go down or up.  Grin

Investing in investment site are risky theres no return in your money.. its better to choose gamble that you hava chance to make more profit with your money..

Investing is still sort of a gamble. if you invest to an ICO its a lot safer kind of investment. I would  think its a lot safer since you get to take back if incase you see in the future that the coin is going to fail. by then you can wtihdraw it back to btc.

Investing was always a gamble. Safe investment is called maybe a Bank Savings account earning very little interest. Usually less interest then inflation. Just depends how much risk you are willing to take.

well, that's not right. even if investing is a gamble it is not always a gamble. investing risk is so much different from gambling. those risks in and investment can be calculated and managed but in gambling you can never mange risks because you have no idea what will happen next based on your luck.

I don't think anyone can make money from gambling because addicted gamblers even after winning they will not withdraw money instead they will keep on try to increase their profits and end up losing all their money back to the site. So in my opinion if you put your money in few good casinos then you have more chances of making some decent profit compared to gambling.

You can do both.  Use a little of it for gambling if that is fun and entertaining for you, but keep some as an investment and maybe even try trading bitcoin with fiat or altcoins on an exchange.
You can do that if you have pretty much bitcoin in your wallet. But if you just have enough amount, then separating it into gambling and trading is not beneficial imo.
Yes, based on the amount of bitcoin we must decide how much amount of bitcoins we can spend for gambling. Honestly I would never recommend anyone to gamble even he has same amount of bitcoin as Satoshi. Instead of gambling, it would be better if you decide to donate your bitcoins.

I wont say donate but i agree on your part that gamble is not for the sake of growing your bitcoin. It is not wise as the risk is always very high and in fact, more of the games are always in disadvantage for you as ur chance of winning is less than 50%. So investment is one of the better choices but of course you must know how to invest well.

yes it does not vary much. the same . just different ways of playing it. the investment we only silent, while the gamble we are actively playing and attention. This is an option. choose according to what you can and expect.

long time ago i invested some BTC in Mining.
those were good days.
now i don't think mining is profitable like it was.
so keep holding them,price will rise again.
so saved BTC will become investment and you can earn some good profit.
Mining is the best to invest before but for now i think its not profitable to mine bitcoin.. mining ethereum instead because its still profitable according to other people say from altcoin section..
Yup this method is now every one is following. But price not increased means we don't know what to do. For me i will not waste that bitcoin with playing in gambling so if price not increase i have only choice i will do any business or i will put that bitcoin in any casino or will do some trading. But i wish that price will increase this will help full to every one those who are holding for price high. Gamble or invest is depend on price.

gambling and investing pretty much the same thing?
They both have risk and great reward?
So really its kinda 50/50, although with gambling you have more fun

AFAIK, they are not that the same. When investing you have the opportunity to make some research and backround check on where you want to invest. While on gambling, you can have some fun but still the risk will stay the same. And you don't know if the house cheats. The house always win on gambling though.
Basic difference is: when you invest you are seeking risk free method and prefer sure ways of earning money.
Gamblers tends to do the opposite - they are risk seekers. You can say that investment is gamble when you managed to tilt the odds in your favour.

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


What type of gambling do you like?
I would say to gamble if you like and are decent in sports betting or poker. If you don't like that and want to try gambling in those pure luck casino games and dice, then I would say you need a good bankroll management, otherwise you will go bust very soon.
As to invest, I really don't like that option. You can't win big if you want to invest safe, and if you go on and invest on risky things then you might as well gamble it, since you will not feed anyone with there scams.

On your place i would keep it. It's gonna be investment, so I am up to invest. I heard many times that bitcoin will grow soon, not for some dollars in some times! So if it really happen u will have nice ammount.
Gambling may bring u the profit very fast, as the same way u can loose a lot. And chances r always 50/50. If u like to risk - u can try.
I think the chances of winning and profitable to gamble is 45%-55%. the chances of winning for the players is 45% and 55% for the house because the house has the possibility of winning is higher This system is inevitable.
different from the investment you have a much higher likelihood
