Just like others, I prefer to use stable coins. Reason?, Avoid guilt. Using volatile cryptos would put me on guilt especially if the market price increases and happened that I've lost my capital. It would somehow leave me an impression of a double loss. Atleast with stable cryptos, price would remain as is. If I would be losing $800 in a single day, it would remain the dame unlike with $800 worth of btc perhaps, which could be $1k or more if I choose to hold. It won't be on a literal basis but the idea is to just lose an amount as is and no other potential of earning profit. But I do get the idea that to other gamblers, using other cryptos, even if volatile, would cost them less with transaction fees which could really be a pro for them.
But that implies you don't even exchange volatile cryptos for stable cryptos in order to then deposit them at casinos? Or am I getting your post wrong?
Because then it doesn't matter what step you take first and whether you even convert it or not. When you lose money gambling you could also be angry at yourself because you could have taken that money and buy more Bitcoin.
But even when you convert Bitcoin into stable cryptocurrencies, it could out of luck turn out to be the right action if the price drops while you are gambling with it and perhaps even make a little profit.
I think eventually it is basically about the decision whether to gamble or not and what the budget should be. It could go both ways, but sticking to constantly buying Bitcoin with funds you might have lost gambling otherwise is never a wrong plan. Rather some additional Bitcoin than some potentially lost stable cryptocurrencies lost.
