Certainly, gambling with high budgets and funding gamblers will bring about huge risks. For this reason, it would be a more logical option to gamble with amounts that will not shake one's budget and to evaluate investment opportunities in different investment areas. Gambling should always be an entertainment-oriented tool, not a profit-oriented investment type and it should be played with an amount that will not negatively affect the person financially.

In addition, since investing in gambling is riskier than other investment options, the risk of loss will be higher for investments made in this area. Also, if the return and risk ratios are incompatible with each other, this investment will definitely not be a logical investment.

When I first learned about Bitcoin in 2013, it's price was still changing between 15-18 USD. It then took me some time to research and learn what it was and how I could buy it with the limited resources of that period and I bought my first Bitcoin at a price of approximately 80 USD. Of course, during these periods I mentioned since I was a student, I had a very limited capital and unfortunately I couldn't buy or sell for a very high amount. For this reason, unfortunately, I was never able to accumulate very high amounts of Bitcoin and was not among the millionaires who were investigate Bitcoin early. Still, during the periods I mentioned I was making very good profits by buying and selling Bitcoin and I was able to spend much more luxuriously than many of my friends.

Even though I couldn't become a Bitcoin millionaire, I covered many expenses using the money I earned from Bitcoin trading, had the opportunity to use the latest models of many technological products and covered my holiday expenses in many countries this way. For this reason, I am not angry with myself and I am proud of myself for meeting so many expenses by discovering Bitcoin early. Who knows, maybe this is my way of consoling myself for not being a millionaire.

We talked a little about this last week when I was chatting with a French friend of mine. He stated that he didn't see cryptocurrencies as an investment tool due to his beliefs and as the conversation went deeper I asked him different questions. Out of curiosity, I asked a few questions about what people in France think about cryptocurrencies in general. He also told me that there wasn't as much interest as in other countries of the world and that in France cryptocurrencies were an investment tool that was preferred only by young people and was not very common.

When I examine the survey here, I think of these two possibilities;

- My friend only expressed his own opinions and indirectly lied to me about this. Which I think is highly likely because he has lied several times before while we're talking.

- Another possibility is that I think the people who participated in this survey may coincidentally be more likely to be interested in cryptocurrencies. This is of course very unlikely but there is almost no possibility that this survey could have obtained data by asking questions to all French citizens. However, since the probability of this possibility occurring is very low I think the first possibility I mentioned may be more possible.

Geniş bir çerçeveden olayı yorumlamak gerekirse evet, haklısın. Fakat, kısa vadeli trade yapmak için teknik analizin oldukça önemli olduğunu düşünüyorum çünkü fiyatın hangi seviyelerden tepki vereceğini bilmek ve pozisyonları en azından teknik analize göre ortalardan açmamış olmak bazen ciddi anlamda hayat kurtarabiliyor. Ayrıca, bir başkasının çizmiş olduğu çizgilere odaklanmak yerine daha önceki yorumlarımda da belirttiğim gibi belirli bir fiyat aralığını baz alarak kendi alım-satım seviyelerimizi belirlemek her zaman daha sağlıklı işlem yapabilmemize olanak sağladığı gibi incecik tek bir çizginin kesiştiği fiyattan alım veya satım yapılmasına engel olabiliyor. Bu sebeple, özellikle kısa vadeli trade yapıldığı zaman teknik analizin önemli olduğunu, büyük yatırımcının her zaman ve sürekli olarak sert hareketler oluşturmadığını da hesaba katmak gerekiyor. Fiyat tablosuna genel olarak bakmak gerekirse de belirttiğin gibi bir büyük yatırımcının istediği noktadan piyasayı etkilemesinin ve teknik analiz sonuçlarını çürütmesinin zor olmadığını da her daim aklımınızım bir köşesine not etmek zorundayız.

If FTX were to sell SOL to cover all user funds and gain a place in the market again unfortunately this would be a very bad step for Solana and Solana investors. I think that it isn't possible to make such a high amount of sales at once and even a possible sales trial period will cause serious damage to Solana. In other words, Solana which is believed to have entered a bullish phase especially in the last few weeks, will unfortunately face a very serious loss of value even under these market conditions.

On the other hand, if all the grievances are resolved by using these funds and FTX starts its service again unfortunately there is no possibility of it regaining its former popularity. I don't think that investors or traders will choose FTX again as there has been a serious loss of reputation and trust due to the events we have experienced.

Yes, having a gambler mentality will definitely lead to more risky trades and greatly increase the chances of potential losses. For this reason, while I stated that an individual who is addicted to gambling will definitely not be a trader, I stated that there is a possibility that an individual who is disciplined and manages risk well can become a trader.

Certainly, trading is something that happens over a long-term process and gambling is just an expensive hobby focused on fun. This is the most important difference that can distinguish a gambler from a cryptocurrency trader and the clearest factor that can prove that the two things we compare are not very similar to each other.

Of course, although it doesn't seem to pose any risk for investment it can cause serious problems for social relations. However, I think this is also a factor in why this investment is risky because putting someone addicted to gambling into debt will bring with it various risks. Of course, when there is collateral in question, potential risks reach a minimum level but I still think that the person to whom the loan is made and the collateral product will also be beneficial in increasing the risk ratio of the investment.

Additionally, as you mentioned although loans are given to gambling addicts against collateral, unfortunately, lending with collateral doesn't guarantee that the loan amount will be repaid without any problems and in full. In other words, making money by borrowing money from gamblers can actually turn out to be a very risky option when we examine all these criteria.

Someone who is new to cryptocurrency trading and inexperienced should definitely trade on spot. This is because in spot transactions there is no risk of losing all the money in case of a possible market fluctuation. In this way, the initial capital is best protected and experience is gained more safely.

Futures transactions allow you to trade with several times your current capital. Although it may sound nice at first, the risk in futures transactions increases depending on the leverage ratio and there is a risk of losing all the money. For example, let's assume that 10x leverage is used with a budget of 1.000 USD, a position is opened that the cryptocurrency named ABC will rise and no stop-loss is used. If the cryptocurrency named ABC loses more than 10% of the value from position entry price, the entire 1.000 USD capital will be liquid. In other words, since a position of 10.000 USD was opened by using 1.000 USD as collateral, the current loss of value will be calculated on 10.000 USD and a 10% loss will result in the loss of all capital.

But how? Even though I explained futures trading in the simplest way, it is quite complicated for someone who is just starting out and has no experience, right? Additionally, it shouldn't be forgotten that it is complicated for a beginner and inexperienced trader due to the presence of many terminologies. So, with this comment I think I have expressed in the best way which choice should actually be made.

Yes, considering today's market conditions and answering the OP's question it was a more logical to give an example and answer with a positive scenario, just like in my first comment. However, if we need to answer by taking all conditions into consideration, it is necessary to consider what could happen in case of a possible negative scenario which I stated in my second comment. In general, considering the OP's question and current market conditions it would be more accurate to interpret it through a positive scenario.

Moreover, as you mentioned if we have to make an evaluation according to today's market conditions it wouldn't be right to think of bad scenarios for now. Of course, it is also very important to act knowing that the market can always reverse and all the possible scenarios can happen.

Yes, if the debt is given against any guarantee/collateral it is possible to accept that the debt has been paid from the first minute. The main issue I want to talk about here is that if the product that is collateral is an emotional thing for the person or if a loan is given to a close friend in return for collateral, the sale of the product will be more difficult due to situation. Of course, due to the debt in question, the lender will have the right to convert the collateral into cash if the maturity date has come but this will not be as easy as it sounds under all circumstances. Yes, as you mentioned this is the fault of the person who borrowed against that collateral but it can still make the process difficult. Anyway, at the end of the day if a debt received against collateral is not paid the priority will be to convert the collateral product into cash and include the cash in the lender's capital again as part of this business.

In summary, if the debt is given against any guarantee/collateral it can be considered that the debt has been paid from the first minute. However, as I mentioned in the sentences above if the process becomes a little difficult, the process of converting the collateral product into cash may be a bit difficult.

I definitely agree that all gamblers using a crypto-based gambling platform have investments in cryptocurrencies or have previously traded cryptocurrencies. I also agree that risk management for cryptocurrency trading and gambling are not exactly the same but I would argue that applying proper risk management for both is similar. In particular, I would also like to correct that risk management should be done with high capital when trading cryptocurrencies. There is absolutely no requirement to have high capital in order to implement risk management correctly. Regardless of the budget amount the person should apply risk management correctly and continue on his/her way by creating a risk management plan completely in line with his/her budget.

I would also like to remind you this about sports betting: If a gambler has information/knowledge about the sports club he/she will bet on, this is a detail that can increase the probability of winning the bet. For example, knowing that a strong team has a high probability of winning or predicting the possibility of a strong team suffering a surprise defeat due to its current roster requires information and following sports news. So, depending on the type of gambling it wouldn't be correct to say that it is completely based on luck.

Finally, it is of course correct to classify risk management but to generalize someone who has knowledge and experience in risk management can manage his/her capital successfully regardless of gambling or cryptocurrency trading.

NOTE: I am definitely not someone who defends the idea that trading cryptocurrencies and gambling are the same thing and there is no difference. I only aim to express my thoughts and learn the thoughts of all kinds of different people by commenting on the connections and similarities between them.

Of course, trading and gambling are completely different from each other but they both have one thing in common and that is risk management. At this point, the main point I want to express is that gambling, especially games, is completely based on luck, sports betting is based partly on analysis and partly on luck but knowledge and experience are very important in trading. That is a gambler focuses on winning based on luck by managing risk well but a trader focuses on winning based mainly on knowledge, experience and a small amount of luck.

Of course, the most important difference between gambling and trading is that gambling is for fun but trading is for profit and make an investments. Of course, a gambler may gamble not only for fun but also to make money, however this person definitely doesn't have a focus on making money or investing.

Elbette, teknik analiz yapılarak bir fiyat seviyesi belirtmek çok daha doğru olacaktı fakat benim anlatmak istediğim nokta ise teknik analizle de olsa tek bir fiyat seviyesine güvenmenin pek doğru olmayacağıdır. Yani, doğrudan tek bir fiyat seviyesi yazarak patlama beklentisinin olduğunu belirtmek oldukça büyük bir hata fakat teknik analiz ile de tek bir fiyat belirtmek, belirli bir fiyat hareket aralığı belirtmeye kıyasla da yanılma payının daha yüksek olduğu bir hata olacaktır. Yine de, güzel bir teknik analiz ile fiyat belirtilmiş olsa ve beklentiler ''patlama'' benzetmesi olmaksızın paylaşılmış olsa elbette buna saygı duymak boynumuzun borcu olacaktır. Açık konuşmak gerekirse düz bir fiyat seviyesi ile ''patlama'' beklentisi olduğu zaman ben de kendimi kalitesi düşük bir haber sitesi veya portalda geziyormuş gibi hissediyorum. Herhangi bir teknik analiz uygulamaksızın şu yorumu yapmak pek de zor değil;

Bitcoin 36.000 USD seviyesini geçerse bir patlama olabilir!!!
Bitcoin 37.000 USD seviyesini geçerse bir patlama olabilir!!!
Bitcoin 38.000 USD seviyesini geçerse bir patlama olabilir!!!
Bitcoin 39.000 USD seviyesini geçerse bir patlama olabilir!!!
Bitcoin 40.000 USD seviyesini geçerse bir patlama olabilir!!!

İşin kısa özeti, teknik analiz olmaksızın belirlenmesi mümkün yüzlerce fiyat noktası bulunuyor. Yani, basit bir Twitter fenomeni gibi yüzlerce kripto para için rastgele fiyat tahminleri yapmak ve herhangi birisinin şans eseri tutması durumunda ''işte ben bildim!'' demek çok da zor bir şey değil. Düşünsene, Bitcoin 36.001 USD üzerinde bir fiyattan ani bir sıçrama ile 40.001 USD değere ulaşırsa 5 tane doğru tahmini arka arkaya ''patlatmış'' oluyorum.

Yes, generally slot games are something where loss scenarios are more common and for this reason I prefer it just for fun. Have some winnings after a loss-oriented process and transferring this winnings to wallet by exercising my own will is both a very logical strategy and makes me feel happy because I gamble for free with this way.

Buying a maximum of 3 lottery tickets or scratchcards every week not only helps me satisfy my desire to gamble but also helps me gamble regularly every week at a very low cost. In addition, it also helps you make money with a low gambling expense in possible winnings. Of course, there is no regular winnings but my possible losses are always at a minimum. Also, just as you mentioned sometimes not gambling or playing with low amounts can be the most logical investment.

It is definitely a great thing to be able to control yourself in a disciplined way, not to overdo it in gambling and to gamble regularly without becoming addicted. Earning a good amount of money even if rarely and experiencing the happiness of gambling and repeating it regularly is a feeling that cannot be explained and must be experienced. Gambling should always be played intelligently with good risk management and the main goal should be to maximize the level of fun at minimum cost rather than becoming addicted.

Of course, this applies to the negative scenario just as it does to the positive scenario. Although I only mentioned the positive scenario in my comment because the content is based on a positive scenario, a similar situation will also apply to the negative scenario. For this reason, it is always beneficial to choose the transaction parity to be preferred by taking into consideration the market conditions. In addition, it shouldn't be forgotten that in the event of a possible negative scenario if Bitcoin dominance becomes high and Bitcoin loses value there will be a loss both on Bitcoin basis and USD basis due to parity (like a double loss). Certainly, choosing transaction parity considering both scenarios will minimize possible risks.

Hello dear Little Mouse,

I'm confirming that I received my payment.

Thank you so much for Coins.Game and you.

I think the answer to this question literally varies from person to person because it is possible to answer yes and no simultaneously.

Yes, because a gambler who gambles disciplinedly and has experience in risk management can be successful in trading by maintaining a similar discipline and risk management.

No, because a gambler who doesn't have any discipline and cannot manage risk well will most likely not be able to maintain discipline and risk management well and will not be successful in trading.

Although gambling is completely based on luck and cryptocurrency markets are partly based on luck, they both have common features such as risk management and being able to trade/play in a disciplined manner. It is possible to answer the question depending on the conditions I mentioned above especially since risk management is very important in both.

I hope you consider something like this knowing and realizing how dangerous this is. It would definitely not be a very logical thing to meet the funding needs of individuals who are addicted to gambling because there is a high probability that these people will not repay the amount they borrowed. Moreover, since such people don't have much to lose in their lives, there is a possibility that they may encounter all kinds of life-threatening risks.

Of course, funding gambling-addicted individuals in return for collateral or similar assurance may seem like a profitable method but you shouldn't forget that nothing is rosy and you will encounter many difficulties after you start operating. As I mentioned, the situation you mentioned is very high risky and dangerous.

Evet, ben de forumun kitlesinin oturduğunu düşünüyorum çünkü özellikle boğa rallisinin olduğu dönemlerdeki kadar aktif konu veya yorum göremiyoruz fakat konu ve yorumların kalitelerinde ciddi oranda bir artış olduğunu rahatlıkla söylemek mümkün. Özellikle kripto paralardaki hareketliliğin en aktif olduğu zamanlarda bahis oynar gibi coin veya token alanlar ve bunları burada çılgınca belirtenler oluyordu. Maalesef, özellikle kısa yoldan zengin olmak için kripto para alım-satımı yapmak isteyen birçok kişi kripto paralara tam anlamı ile dingonun ahırına dalar gibi dalmıştı ve o dönemler hem yatırımcı hem de forumdaki üye kitlesi maalesef oldukça kalitesiz düzeye erişmişti. Umarım ki önümüzdeki yeşil günler için geçmiş yeşil günlerden ders çıkarmış birçok kişi daha mantıklı şekilde hareket edecek ve eskiden olduğu gibi o kalitesiz kitle ile muhattap olmak zorunda kalmayacağız.

Elbette yapabilir fakat ATH yapmış ve sonrasında ciddi değer kaybı yaşamış bir kripto paranın yeniden değer kazanması ve bir önceki AHT değerinin üzerine çıkması için uzun bir süre gerekebilir. Unutmamak gereklidir ki, scam olmayan veya piyasada varlığını başarılı olarak sürdürmeyi başaran birçok proje sonsuza kadar benzer fiyat seviyelerinde kalmayacak veya sonsuza kadar düşüş eğiliminde olmayacaktır. Yani, tüm diğer faktörler bir kenara konulduğu zaman bir finansal ürünün fiyatının sonsuza kadar benzer aralık içerisinde hareket etmesi veya sadece düşüş eğilimine devam etmesi mümkün bir şey değildir. Belirttiğim gibi, her ne kadar uzun bir zamana ihtiyaç olsa da başarılı olarak hayatına devam edebilen her proje muhakkak günün birinde ATH değerinin üzerine ulaşarak yeni bir AHT fiyatı tazeleyecektir.
