First of all, I don't recommend gambling "although I too gamble with BTC sometimes" because the house edge is always against the player, I suggest investing in a website of these specially a sportbook "if there is one offering sharing profit like dice sites" because there is a big edge for the house.

I've done pretty good investing in startups but that takes quite a bit of research.  For every startup or crowdfund that does well there are 1000's that tank....I've done pretty well playing poker too but for every winner there are losers.  Investing IS gambling and one needs to build a solid skill set before diving in to either of those ventures too deeply.  Do what you're best at and don't rely on anecdotal evidence to make those decisions. They both require specific skill sets and they both have a real element of risk.
I am seeing that investing in a gambling site does not require too much skills to be successful, apparently gambling sites are profitable so there is nothing to worry on that, maybe we will just hard to pay attention on the reputation of a certain site so we will not be scam.
I agree it is just like a matter of you are going to be a stock holder but letting the gambling site borrow your money in able to add to their funds so that they are going to keep on operating. So if you want to gamble and invest at the same time then this is going to be a good choice to you that you are going to make your hobby as your investment.
By putting your money in the gambling site's bankroll, you are sharing the risk in gambling. However, you have the advantage because you are placing your money to trust them that their system will win over the gamblers, and for me that's the easiest form of investment as it has been proven many that times its profitability.

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

My suggestion for that 1 BTC is that, Don't use it for gambling, gambling have a lot of risk, and most of the time you cannot win, instead they are the one winning.

In investing, if you know a site that are not scam and do have a physical miners for example, then it is a good one, but if it is just like the other ponzi sites out there like the one that previously closed and took my money CLDmine then don't expect for a profit from it.

Look for a site which is a legit one, try to search for badbitcoins and look at the good sites.

We know that gambling have a lot of risk and surely will lose your money on a long run, that is why trading it and holding it is the best option for it to become profitable, right now bitcoin price are still in continuous rising so hold it and wait for the right time to sell it.

No big risk at all right? but be sure to sell it at the right time to nail the biggest profit.

i always say - investing is same as gambling just sometimes has better odds Wink

Maybe sometimes it is very similar with gambling but in general invest is better option when we put our into reputable casino, players have pretty low chance to make profit against the house that is why I am totally disagree with you for you this opinion.

It is much saver to invest then to gamble because with gambling the chance is much bigger that you are going to lose but the good thing with gambling is that if you win you will have your money right away.
With investing waiting becomes a huge part of it and that is why people do not like to invest it takes to long.

It is definitely not the same, given that you understand what house edge means you should totally know that it is different. In gambling you are bound to lose at the amount average of what you wagered as the house edge however if you are investing then you are getting profit of the house edge times wagered amount

It is all about skills and experience, as in sports betting. In my opinion investments are many times more risky than some versions of gambling.

Of course there is one more very important thing - information - as we know, at the present times information is the most expensive commodity  Wink

If you want to have fun then fins any casino that has games you may like, if you instead want profits then investing is he way to, If I had that amount of money I will probably invest in a bitcoin casino.
I think since a choice is given then surely it is all about profits because if it was fun, then this question is irrelevant. I think gambling is a bit better than investing in some cases since you do not have to use your brain and take horrible decisions rather just rely on your luck and wait for the winnings.
If you are a risk taker gambling is the best choice because you will know in instant if you are going to earn or not. if you invest your money you have to wait for long time and worst you cant gain anything coz they runaway with your money.

Issue is you can never tell when someones going to scam.
Investing and gambling are one in the same there is odds of failure for both.
Only issue with investing is emotional based economy with speculative investors.

While will a right minded person invest there money in casino? Because I don't know any billionaires who have invested their money on a casino. The OP specifically ask to choose between Investing or Gambling and what you have done is you chose both in the wrong way. I guessed the point is Investing is for long term not for a one night play at a Casino.

No, I don't agree on that part. Investing is entirely different from gambling. Investing is not only about casino investments, but there are many other investments like investing in gold, real estate and many other ways. All those are not a gambling but it takes its time time to give you a good profit. Gambling is an enjoyment but investing is for making a profit.

The main thing to remember is diversifying your investments if you worry that you may lose money in investments. By diversifying you can reduce a lot of risks and quite safer side. So don't put all your funds in any one sector or site but put in many sites small amounts and reduce your risks. If you don't invest because of risks then you can't grow your money.
