It is not at all a bad idea for as long as you educate them properly. Bitcoin is not as simple as what other people may think so as bitcoin enthusiast it is your task to properly educate possible investors what is bitcoin, it's benefits, it's advantages and disadvantages and how it really works. I think if you have presented all these things to them then they will not blame since you have provided them valuable information of what bitcoin really is. For me, it is how you educate your family and friends about bitcoin because if you provided them all the information for them to think about if they will invest or not then no problem but if you are the person who will just inform possible investors that you can get big money in bitcoin right away then that's were the problem begins. Sure it is true we can get big profits but not all the time because the price is very unpredictable it's not always green.
On the other hand, I don't share it to my family members but some of my friends know it but they are not that interested in bitcoin as a whole because they see it as a scam. Thus, I don't really bother educating them.

Scammers indeed are becoming very smart and creative as the time passes and though this forum is known and is regulated by the administrators but because scammers are becoming smarter they are able to invade the forum and makes offer that can attract possible victims.
I heard a lot of scam cases but this one is new to me, if you are a person who is not keen in every small details then you will surely be scammed, imagine with just one character a dot and a comma, someone might have lost a lot so it is important to be very cautious nowadays since scammers are everywhere.

Crypto holding can be considered gambling because you take risk in spending on something that you don’t know the odds will be. Crypto market is very unpredictable that we can’t really determine when the price is going to rise or go down but like gambling if you become lucky when holding then you can win big time.
On the other hand, in crypto holding it may take some time waiting and it’s tiresome to wait so if you want to earn while waiting for the price to rise why not enter trading, you can scalp a few some of your coins and invest in trading it’s a little better rather than just doing nothing and just waiting.

Crypto gambling sites helps in the awareness of bitcoin or other cryptocurrency. Some people don’t really know bitcoin or altcoins but when the came across these gambling sites that accepts crypto then it made them aware or know bitcoin and other altcoins. Also, it will make those who thinks bitcoin or altcoins fake realize that bitcoin isn’t a scam since gambling sites accepts them as a payment. Crypto gambling sites contributes in the introduction and awareness of bitcoins and other altcoins.

I did it a few times but most of the time, i’ll go with the majority because it is a little safer unlike when you bet in an underdog and risk you money. But sometimes going with majority becomes a little boring so it’s nice to go against them at time and it’s just amazing when a time will cone that you won because you go against the majority.

Sportsbetting is also quite the same as gambling where it has risk when you bet either with the majority or against them. It just a matter of good decision making and a bit of luck too.

Not really, most of the time gamblers don’t remember the losses they incur after winning a big amount because they are to focused on the wining they got one time which is higher that what they bet on the day. In this case your friend bet $3 but he won $300, at first look it’s sure a big win but when you look back and calculate all your bet for 7 months then $300 it’s just nothing however, once gamblers win big amounts the first time won’t really look back at his previous bets, what is important the he won after a long time.

He is here to put up this argument that bitcoin is fake, I guess, since this is forum is a discussion related to bitcoins. I think the point he is trying to make is that bitcoin can’t be used everywhere like fiat does, though bitcoin is becoming popular nowadays not all establishments accepts bitcoin thus, you have to convert it to the accepted currency before you can buy anything.

Bitcoin is not at all fake because you can convert it to accepted currency and buy something, I think the only thing that make bitcoin fake are those people who use it in a bad way.

The future is still a long way to go which means no matter how popular or well known bitcoin today we can’t really guarantee that it will still be the same tomorrow. It is okay to invest and gamble some of you savings to bitcoin but putting all your wealth on it is not a good move for me because anything can happen along the way. With the increased competition between bitcoin and other coins and future coins, there is a possibility/chance that a new coin will become the king in the future. Sure bitcoin is the king now and no other coin or altcoin has surpassed it but who knows, someone might come up with something that will beat bitcoin so putting all your money at stake is a very risky and a not practical move.
I just hope it will go as planned because that’s all we holders or even traders are looking forward to (fingers crossed). Hopefully bitcoin will really reach $20k in the next few years.

Not only that they become broke, unemployed or what but they also lost their sanity because in gambling if you are too addicted then it will give the person a lot of stress, stress that he lost, stress in thinking how can he recover the losses and also stress of thinking what his family is going to say when they found out he gambled then loss. Overall, gambling though has a good side but it does more bad that good that is why most people consider gambling as a sin or a very bad thing.
In gambling it is very important that a gamblers only wager small or the amount that he can afford to lose and at the same time have great self control to avoid getting addicted and to avoid major problems to happen.

Gambling is not about fun and not all about losing to there is also a time where you can win. Some people may gambling to have fun most especially rich people since they have a lot money but there are also those who gamble to make money or should I say easy money because some really want to become rich in an instant and gambling is a way around but that is if you are lucky.
Free games on the other hand is nice but if a games includes gambling then it is a little different, different in the sense that it becomes challenging and thrilling knowing that money is at stake unlike when you engage in free games it becomes boring in the long run.

Gambling money for me isn’t a dirty money, after all it’s hard earned money that gamblers use when gambling but what made it dirty or a bad thing is because of those who can’t control themselves and ended up being addicted to gambling and lose almost everything. Gambling has both advantages and disadvantages like any other things, some may find gambling as a way to relieve from stress, to have fun and forget their worries or problems even for a short time. Some may gamble to make money because it’s the only way for them to a better life. However, gambling isn’t as simple as we think it is, it has the capability to control people mostly weak ones without them realizing it.
When you enter gambling there is a big risk that you’ll become addicted if you don’t have strong self control, thus, if you think you can’t control yourself then better not gamble.

Actually i'm so fed up with a lot of impostors claiming they are Satoshi Nakamoto and every time a new comes up saying another one it's the real one, I don't get excited anymore what I can only think is that its another con artist again. I just don't really understand why do they have to pretend to be Satoshi when they can't even prove it, isn't is stupidity? Oh well, whatever reasons they have I don't care anymore and besides if Satoshi Nakamoto really want to come out he should have done before.

It depends on the area or country like for example in our place the common sports that has a lot of gambling supporters are Basketball and Boxing, whenever there's a boxing match or if there's a new seasons for NBA then my co workers or even my friends bet on their favorite teams. I guess these are the games that is very popular to bet on in our country.
Tennis and Soccer on the other hand, is not that popular in our area, though a few watches it but it is not a common game where they bet on unlike basketball and boxing, they prefer just watching soccer and tennis instead of betting on them.

The effects of gambling is mostly negative, almost all people who enters gambling becomes addicted wherein they tend to lose everything, money, wealth, house or even family just because of addiction so that is why when people know that you are a gambler they will somehow generalize people and will automatically think that you will become an addict just like the others, thus, it will affect your reputation as a person.
Some people may have better intentions when they enter gambling but it’s useless because almost all people see gambling as a bad thing and not something that is worth the time, money and effort.

I'd love to see how the market works and even wondering what will happen next.
Not exactly we could tell that we are going to move high or just dump in a few days later. Nobody could tell and even experts fail to tell. What makes this crypto so beautiful is that it is full of excitement and a lot of surprises.

If the market will be in enduring bullish season, it would be great but how if it turns down deeply in the 4th quarter? It everyone will cry cause we have failed again with our expectation.

I just like to forget the days that altcoins are ultimately in the high price, and I don't want to remember cause it only gives me disappointment.
I believe everyone gets profits that day, people think that it will still be the same or even much higher in the coming years but it sadly becomes different and that is the reason why some of us people hopeless.

That would be straight mate...lol
But somehow or it maybe there is a helping hand or have an overflowing Bitcoin in their pocket to give some to OP, nobody knows.
We are leaving into the anonymity and we never know if OP seriously asking for help or just wanting to fool as just like as a scammer do.

Guarantee, assurance...with this is mostly be missing. Thus, joining bounty campaigns is just finding our luck and you are right, though they have a good team, market strategies, and good market asset but we can't be sure how these people run the project in the long run.  They might be good at the start but not sure if they will be the same in the coming days, and yet to think greediness will soon to appear bringing them to ruin what they've started.

It doesn't make you important cause you are just having fun in gambling but if you seriously think that gambling is a major source of your income, everything will be remembered and makes them needs to fill in those losses.

Winning is a way to make some encouragement and also a mind-blowing diversion that it is mostly we forgot our losses at the time when we win and want to stay in gambling cause we thinking that we make it again and again.

Likewise, it is some sort of asking if this strategy may applied at all times. Mostly people share there way of losing cause they wanted to help us and a sort of awareness but not the way they become profitable. For a lot of gambling strategies, nobody could tell what is effective but instead, they keep blaming that it cause losses with them which is something clear that not about the strategies but its all about luck.
