Sending to a Trezor wallet might help because spending involves a couple more steps and requires you to be holding the wallet. Also consider using a paper wallet.

Yes this is the official site to buy a Trezor, you should also stop gambling all around and just store your coins in there for a long time.
It's not really worth it if you don't have many coins, you should look into paper wallets if you only have a few.

This is a common problem for many people. what they earned or bought they gamble right back to the casinos.

Well for 99$ is a fair price i think il better invest it and it will be harder to spend them because now all i need is 1 click to deposit but using trezor is more time intensive and by the time i will use it i will remember to stop gambling...

Trezor is a great product. But one of the reasons it's great, is because you can still easily send your money to other addresses. Therefor it shouldn't really help your problem unless you get some discipline to stop depositing to gambling sites.

Here is my hands on with one - https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=1298917.0  I love it, it's the most popular hardware wallet.

I'm not sure it's a anti-gambling item though.  You need to really do that on your own, a device will not stop you from gambling.

It looks like you're looking for a quick fix to your gambling problem and it's good you've identified it. A Trezor hardware wallet, as far as I know, would still give you access to the funds at any time so won't be a real solution. The best thing to do is wean yourself off gambling, ideally in one clean go. The only real winners in that scenario are the casinos and gambling sites. The rush from wins can easily hide the fact you're making far below minimum wage. If you really wanted a storage device, buy something like a 0.01 Microsoul physical bitcoin, fill it up with your funds and you won't want to peel the hologram until you need the private key.

I think it depends on yourself if you want to stop gambling, not trezor

If you want to stop gambling with a trezor wallet, I wouldn't recommend it. Trezors are expensive. Why not a Ledger HW.1? It's cheap.

I don't think any sort of hardware wallet would stop you from gambling alone (like at all). What you need is to meditate yourself into not playing excessively at the time you've won something and that's usually not easy since gambling is like an addiction and stopping it, needs more effort than you think, once you've used to it. I used to gamble a lot in the past (in real life) and what I did was to take psychiatric consultation (I took twice). Although the effect won't be right away, it will be worth it in the end and now I have a better control of myself (overall).

You seem like a gambling addict, its good that you're thinking of steps that may help you stop gambling but I don't know how holding your coins in trezor or other cold storage might help you. When the time comes and you feel the urge you'll break open your cold storage to gamble, what you need to do is take help from professionals.

if you don't want to have access to your bitcoins you should use a paper wallet instead. because you can still use the funds in Trezor but a paper wallet needs to be swept in another wallet in order to use it, it is paper after all!

I see this as a opportunity for someone to develop some sort of hardware device, where you place a hard daily limit and it will only pay that amount out daily. The device then restrict you from gambling

more than what you can afford to spend. Trezor should investigate this option and they can hard code and configure this device on order for gamblers. You say, how much the device must make

available daily, when you order it, and then they hard code it for you. If we are serious with helping people with gambling addiction, this must be a possible solution. Regulated and responsible

Bitcoin gambling operations can easily implement this themselves, but they will never do that.  ::)

why would a Trezor help against your addiction? even you will give all your coins to your wife/mother it will not help because as soon you have some $ you will gamble it

Op, you are gonna buy trezor and then what? Give it to somebody else to keep? Because if you will be in possession of this wallet then you most likely will break and gamble again.
I would recommend seeking professional help if you are feeling like your excessive gambling is a little too much to handle on your own.

I don't see why you link trezor with gambling, I mean its a wallet and it won't decide itself whether to spend the coins inside it or not. Everything depends on you and your discipline. If you think you can't really avoid gambling and you are addicted to it, you better off  seeking a professional help ;)

I don't think getting a Trezor will cause you to stop gambling, but it could definitely help.  I don't have a Trezor, but I have a Ledger nano hardware wallet and I have found it helpfully in this situation.  I used to gamble a lot more (or just buy stuff), but now that I send all my bitcoin to my Ledger, it is a lot more inconvenient to spend my bitcoin.  I don't usually keep my Ledger with me (I keep it in a drawer at home) so it takes several steps to actually spend my bitcoin.

If I had problem like that I would immediately turn my coins into cash every time I reach certain goal, say $100, or buy myself something worthwhile on the net.
