Have Edited their comment on the same thread and added same link which mod have deleted, which means they planted their self on the comment incase action is being taken on one they can easily edit.

The number of people you have interviewed might be few, and you might luckily run into a majority of those who have somehow heard about Bitcoin, not as if they know much about it, but they have heard how some people made good profit from it, which dropped something in their head, which is telling them that Bitcoin is good.

But in general it seems if you ask most of them deeper questions about their knowledge about Bitcoin, you will be surprised they have a very familiar definition of what a Ponzi scheme is (which is quick money). Some out there are misinformed, but it's risky to show how involved and knowledgeable you are with Bitcoin; society is not safe, and many consider everyone involved with Bitcoin to be very wealthy.

We have those who all they care about is how their investment can yield some profit, which is why they only focus on the price movement; they put their home and trust the developers to handle anything that has to do with security.

You have your answer already, but the real thing here is security is most important. Even if the price of Bitcoin dumps unexpectedly, as long as there is still tight security, which could prevent exploitation, there will be trust in it. But if Bitcoin lets the price pump to $1m and there is a little chance that the investor's asset is not safe due to a security threat, people will not have the mind to hold it

People invest for profit entirely, which is correct. Some people did not just invest and hold for that long purposely; there are some people whose reason for holding for long is because of how they lost access to their wallet, which prevented them from taking profit, while some just want to sell at the right time when what they want to do with the fund arises, not just because prices have increased.

The market has done really well based on my own observation for the year; it has met the expectations of most, but human expectations are always not satisfied. The more we achieve, the more we expect.

For the remaining month of the year, we will expect more from Bitcoin, but not too much. I don't know what number your expectations are, but it's easier for us to reach $124k again, which is the previous ATH, and create a new one, but I no longer expect Bitcoin to reach $150k, which is what many expect of it.

I would like to take my loan balance of $188 for a period of 4 weeks… for which the repayment amount on or before the due date will be $217.

Even if Bitcoin is circulating at a certain price level, it's not enough for us to say that it's stable. The price is never stable, and I don't even consider the $114k level to be a close range to being leveled. Currently, we are on the edge of even falling below $119k; it has dropped below that in the past few days, and currently, as of the time of writing this comment, Bitcoin is $119,500, which is not close to $120k, and I see this month closing below $120k. I also have a higher hope for the month of Uptober than what happened in the month of September.

I don't know the source from which they got their data, but even if it's being rated by countries with the most crypto users, you don't expect El Salvador to be among the top because they make bitcoin legal tender. That does not mean their citizens embrace bitcoin like other countries do. It's something. Nigeria, in some data, usually shows up among the top countries with the most rising interest in crypto, while some data don't even include them among the top 10.

And for anyone who can't get out from gambling, it will be hard for the person to even decide how they limit themselves in terms of the time they spend and the amount they also spend; not being able to get out either because of social or peer pressure, it will be difficult for them unless the gambler is able to cut whatever is pressurizing him in gambling; only then can they be able to control their activity in it.

Haven't you read or heard about how kidnappers now use other means to accept bank transfers from victims? They go as far as using a POS agent's account to receive money in exchange for cash, and the agent might not know where the money comes from. At the end, they turn out to be a victim and the suspect escapes, just like some major car dealers, where the kidnappers can pretend to try to have a car dealer receive ransom money directly into their account, cook up stories later, and make the person send money to another account or, better still, use it to buy an affordable car at that range and later sell it off to another. Those dudes don't just request cash only.

And do you know that when you start doing something more often, the chances of you getting addicted to the thing are very high, and the more you get too comfortable, too attached to a particular thing, it will get to a point where if you no longer get engaged in that thing, it will be as if some part of you is missing, which is a bit of gradually losing control over it, as you can no longer stay without having the thought of doing that thing almost every single day?

Addiction is real; control is one of the most important things for every gambler. Once they learn how to control themselves, they will be able to overcome overspending. When someone wins in gambling, the urge to continue because it feels like it is their lucky day will always be there, which I don't discriminate against, but the gambler should know when to call the stop shot immediately when the game starts turning against him or her.

The question is whether those people actually put their money to gamble only for fun in the first place or whether they were just deceiving themselves, because it's easier to say something when your true intentions are different, and it's also easier for someone who is lying to himself for his true intentions to be exposed based on action. That's what and how I consider those who start chasing profit from being someone who claims to be gambling only for fun and entertainment.

Now I see why I considered it to be some sort of exchange back then, because I can recall way back that when I first made use of blockchain.com, I signed up using my email, which was actually a way we used in making registrations for exchanges, and I also think there was a swap or convert option available where you could deposit Bitcoin and withdraw Dogecoin or other altcoins back then.

Gambling doesn't have anything to do with aging, but money and stress do. If you don't have money to take care of yourself, it can lead to many things, even if that money is not spent on gambling. Natural stress as well, without good care, can also lead to looking older than the person's age. Gambling is just the excuse I see the person use here, or maybe because he spent most of his money on gambling, that's why he wants to primarily blame it on gambling.

But blockchain.com has always been an exchange, even before they developed their wallet, or am I wrong? I know back then, even before I started using Luno, which is no more, their blockchain, blockchain.com, had always been their offering their service to Nigerians long before Binance gained popularity, based on my knowledge.

And as for the email, I still get it almost every day asking me to verify my account so that I can start using their P2P service, which supports my country's pair.

Bitcoin still has enough time to achieve that $150k price target. We have about 4 months for the year to come to an end, which is enough time for Bitcoin to reach $150k. It's as simple as that, but nothing is certain; it might still not happen, and even if it doesn't, we shouldn't be disappointed. After all, it reached $120k when most people least expected it.

This is not the case of the casino restricting the person from betting on a particular game. A casino gaining a license from a country is different from the game provider, which offers their service to the casino, as they also have different licenses and regulations to follow. Since the OP is allowed to place bets on other games, I assume it's a problem with the provider.

It's also said that gambling was among the firms that made Bitcoin as popular as it is today. In the early stages, most of the Bitcoin transactions were carried out either by those using it to gamble or by gambling sites paying winners with Bitcoin. To date, it's still in use even as regulations have come to take away privacy from every gambler.

If you feel uneasy about it, there is no point in even trying it out at all, but if you are just hearing from afar that gambling is addictive and you need to try it out, personally, I don't see any harm in gambling as long as your mind is open and you are not directly chasing the money and want to escape poverty through it; you can survive without getting addicted, and you can also call the shots when you want to stop.
