I think investing is more risky than gambling because most of investing websites are just scam, but in gambling you have better chances to make your bitcoin grow. How about you guys what do you think?
If someone want to invest their money in any investment website like ponzi websites then you are right investing in these websites are more risky than gambling. I agree with your point that there are more chances that someone will make more bitcoins rather than in investment of him in any site.

It is going to depend on how you are wanting to earn very fast. If you are getting attracted by those hyip's because of fast return and high interest daily that they are offering. Then probably you are going to get scammed easily but their way of scamming people is already known by many people already especially those who became victims.

I agree, but still many people are investing on those hyip/ponzi sites. Their new strategy is earn and run. They choose those hyip's/ponzis whose just 1 day running or newly created and invest there. Some of them gets profit from that but others get greedy and just lose in the end. But not all newly created sites will really pay so i'd rather risk my money on gambling than investing there.

This depends our goal, I think everything is fine, I suggest to split 60% for investments and the rest for gambling. If lucky, gambling can make us rich quick, investment make our old days better, so choose both.

Both of them are not a better option for the money, gambling won't give you profit, it is unsure, same as in investment, you profit now and later on maybe you won't because the hyip where you invested your coins run away, whether you split your coins into two or both of them are in just one side, it is still in danger. Better invest it in your own business, atleast you are in control of it.

I think investing is more risky than gambling because most of investing websites are just scam, but in gambling you have better chances to make your bitcoin grow. How about you guys what do you think?

It actually depends on where you will invest it and the amount you will be investing . Just avoid all HYIP/Ponzi sites and always do a through research about your chosen investment site . For your investment to be profitable, most of them require you to invest a decent amount so only invest what you can afford to lose advice is a NO already cause a huge amount of money will never be okay to lose .

For gambling, Just be sure to always have a self control and dont let your greediness take over so you will not be addicted to it . Just gamble what you can afford to lose advice applies here so if you always do these thing you will be fine .

So for me investment is more riskier but gambling is done for fun and investment is done to earn profits . If you want profits go for investment cause you cant earn much in gambling

Try to invest into good Alt coins and hold them for a couple of years. Do not invest into HYIP or Ponzi schemes sites as in the end they all will run away with investors money. It would be better to gamble away money than investing into such schemes. Invest into top 20 coins as per the market cap and hold them for years to come.




The issue with that is altcoin's are much more risky do to whales dumping or speculative investor's most altcoins have no use.
So id stay away from altcoins truthfully only your trying to day trade.
Yes no doubt about this, that investment in gambling is too much risky, you need to have a good knowledge about the alt coin in which you are going to invest your money, you need to study the alt coin in detail and only then you should invest you money, otherwise no any other investment can be so much risky as investment in alt coins.

If you're going to invest in a legit company then it is way more better than trying your luck in some gambling sites but if you are thinking about investing in some HYIP or PONZI scheme sites then I would prefer gambling cause most of those sites are scams unlike in gambling you will decide how would you play for your money

 I haven't seen any investment sites that are legit til the end, most of them just have  a good start and ends up robbing you. While in gambling you are not sure about what will happen to your money, and your future profit depends on your luck too much.

Actually both of them are making you believe that you will get more money with them, it's like sugar coating a lie and making it sound as if they really like you to earn where in fact what they want is for you to try them so they could earn from you.

If you are looking for a legit investment, better go with opening a business, be a merchant, sell something that you know very well and using them most of the time then by that, I am sure if you won't profit big, for sure you will benefit from it since you are also using your own merchandise.

Investments mean not only investing on any sites but you can invest your money in gold, real estate, in some good company shares, etc., All these will have some risks, but not all of them will scam or rob you. Only some untrusted online investment schemes will scam people. I feel investing is much better but one need to find a good investment product to get profit.
And if we speak about investment in bitcoin, then I will like to add that investment in bitcoin specially in present time is the best decision, As we can see that the price of bitcoin is continuously increasing, therefore just simply holding bitcoin for some time will also give you a good profit, you do not need to invest your bitcoin anywhere you can make a decent profit only by holding bitcoin.

Gambling becomes investment if you are disciplined and carefully analyze what and where to bet your money on Ina long run.  It's gambling when you want to win a million dollars with $100 in a few hours.
Yes no doubt about this that gambling can give you good opportunities of making money, but it depend on your luck, your skill and your experience also.

If you are a lucky person then you can surely make good money in gambling, and especially if you have good experience and skill in gambling then you are increasing the winning chances a little more.

Well, actually, most of the online investment schemes are scammers. There are anything call "real investment" online. Putting your money into those online schemes can be considered as a way to destroy your money. HYIP are based on Ponzi scheme which takes money from the latest person to pay for the previous person and they will soon turn into a real scammer when they find that they have collected enough money.
but i think there are also so many trusted and reliable gambling sites where your money is almost safe and you can play gambling there without any worry, you just need to study about the gambling site where you like to invest your money and when you become 100% sure only then you can put your money there for playing gambling.

No debate, investment is the way to go. Gambling can also be an investment if you follow an order and are disciplined.
How can gambling be an investment ,gambling is just a game of luck and you cannot predict anything accurately and how can you call that an investment.If you are not aware of the meaning of investment an investment is the purchase of goods that are not consumed today but are used in the future to create wealth.(google) Grin



I will give you the benefit of the doubt because you must have read the definition of "investment " on Google in French, that's why I've copied it verbatim for your perusal.

investment
ɪnˈvɛs(t)m(ə)nt/
noun
noun: investment; plural noun: investments
1.
the action or process of investing money for profit.
"a debate over private investment in road-building"
synonyms:   investing, speculation; More
expenditure, outlay, funding, backing, financing, underwriting;
buying shares
"you can lose money pretty fast by bad investment"
stake, share, portion, interest, money/capital invested;
informalante
"an investment of £305,000"
a thing that is worth buying because it may be profitable or useful in the future.
"freezers really are a good investment for the elderly"
synonyms:   venture, speculation, risk, gamble; More
asset, buy, acquisition, holding, possession;
bargain;
informalflutter, punt
"I'm satisfied that it's a good investment"
an act of devoting time, effort, or energy to a particular undertaking with the expectation of a worthwhile result.
"the time spent in attending the seminar is an investment in our professional futures"
synonyms:   sacrifice, surrender, foregoing, loss, relinquishment, forfeiture
"a substantial investment of time and energy"
2.
archaic
the surrounding of a place by a hostile force in order to besiege or blockade it.
Translate investment to

How can you include gambling as a mode of investment .All of these meaning are one and the same.

the action or process of investing money for profit this does not mean gambling even if it is controlled gambling Cheesy investing in shares and bonds and gambling does mean different things as you dont invest anything in gambling unless you invest in the bank roll and very few companies accept that and that is also a risky investment.

I'm glad you now call it "a risky investment ". So far as its your intent to derive profits from a venture by risking your own money, goods or services then it's an investment because you hope to get more at the end of the day. So if you gamble(sports betting) "wisely" you can grow your money and I've done this for over a year and I know what I'm talking about.

Therefore we need to mature, if possible we can learn from the experience of others and not necessarily we have to embrace the lose. Sure that there are a lot of investment online but there are a lot of scams as well, so as a wise investor, a careful research should be done first before jumping into a certain investment.

If you ask me gambling is more better for me because i can earn much bitcoin when im playing gambling In fact in real life i am playing gambling on casinos ,Im a bit addicted on it but when Im playing I can control my self when I know that im in my limit. We all know that gambling and investing ,Both are source of bitcoin . It is in yourself where can you earn more bitcoins on gambling or investing
Well, I guess you are too lucky to have that skills in gambling and the fact that it brings you good profit then there is not reason for you to exert more effort in an investment that needs time and effort just to succeed, I can imagine your life if you can do it consistently, you can travel around the world and spending only your winnings in gambling, how lucky.

However, we have different definition with addiction as my definition is when a person is already addicted in gambling he loses control already.

Yes they are both risky but gambling has higher risk. But if you are wise enough you will going to have the most profitable way and that is for having investment, so while you are into gambling. Even you are going to lose you have the chance to recover it by means of getting profit from your investment.
Gambling is a shortcut in dreaming of success, only few will succeed with this kind of intentions. You can only succeed when you are extremely lucky and you win big amount one time, while investing, you are taking care of your investment and if you have good patience you will definitely grow your investment as what other successful people have experience.

It can be for other people but with my stand better to be safe rather than to believe with a false belief that gambling is shortcut to success. There might be scenarios that it can was proved by people who won big amount in lottery. But still it is better to get your own source in a strong source, which is investment while you are into gambling.
but it think it is true for those people who have good experience in gambling, although gambling is a game of luck but still there are so many types of gambling where your experience and your skill also work.

Yes it can be for those who have good experience in gambling but it is always better to have your decent way of getting profit if you are aiming for your way to become a successful person. And that is with proper money managing and investing into the right ones that fits you, since investing is already gambling your money but it has lesser risk that the real gambling.

Those who have good experience in gambling can make a good income for sure. Not all players can have profit smartly, but real gamblers can.
I said it before and say again, if gambling wasn't profitable on long run, as many say, why the top gamblers on casino ranks have positive profit? They are playing for a long time, and they are still earning money. Gamblers make money gambling, another persons make money investing.

Even they have good experience still they are not exempted to the risk that they might get in gambling. But because of it, that is making them able to accept risk when they gamble. No doubt that there are people who are making money with gambling but don't make them as inspiration better to make your own destination for having good investments.

I wonder what made you think that gambling is an investment or it can also be an investment we can say that investment and gambling has a risks but when we say investment there's a high probability to make a profit while in gambling you are still in the probability of 50:50 to make a profit and sometime it appears to be not exactly and you only have a very small chance to earn so we cannot say that gambling can also be an investment .

So id stay away from altcoins truthfully only your trying to day trade.

It is correct. For new people, altcoin trading is very risky and difficult to find an accurate information about these altcoins and most of the time it is like gambling and we end up making a profit only if we are lucky otherwise always lose out trades. So one should very carefully trade these altcoins with small amounts otherwise, you may lose money instead of making money.
