How has discovering bitcoin gambling affected your life?

As the title says. Bitcoin gambling allows an easy, hassle-free way for just about anyone to gamble; there are no age restrictions, not really a minimum to play, and the max bets are often in the thousands of dollars (fiat value). in addition, most gambling sites offer faucets that may act as a gateway for people to become addicted. So how have you all changed since gambling? have you become an addict constantly searching for coin to fuel your addiction? or has it taught you self-restraint from your past losses? really curious where this'll go.

Gotten more broke, that's for sure Grin

. Well, since btc's are easy to access and you don't have to worry about verifying yourself before gambling on a site sets you a lil loser compared to fiat sites. Self control has certainly been difficult. Then again, it's all in the game, never gamble what you can't afford to lose.

I was always a gambler but bitcoin gambling made it more convenient for me to gamble and as far as addiction goes, I don't know if I can call one myself yet but I have lost a good amount of money since I started gambling online with BTC but I still think I can make up my losses just need some luck on my side.

Much easier, I mean, with real life you have a min deposit amount to play, while most of the website has lower, and makes me feel easier to play and have fun even with less.

well i dont think it affected my life a lot though it made me learn that i shouldnt spend my money on things like gambling

most probably it did not affect my life if we would talk about money, i only spend more time on the internet

How this thread different than that: is gambling fix your life? or wreck your life?

It has no effects in my life. I only play for fun.

that thread is asking for a black and white answer: are you broke and homeless or are you burning 100 dollar bills for firewood? im asking for more of "whats changed now?" with this thread, although 99% of the posts here are mindlessly thought up in 3 seconds.

I believe there is minimum age in most bitcoin casino.

It's fun. Don't risk what you can't lose and you'll have no problem. I've made some and I've lost some..that's life.

well i was affected mostly real bad by it i think, when i discovered it i thought it was an easy way to make money though i was wrong, searching for new strategies ate up a lot of my time

yes I was addicted to gambling and I was very lucky, when it lost I do not always look for the coins to be burned. because I have learned restraint, from a dark past because of gambling.

Bitcoin simplified gambling industry. With it I can open a page and play. Many sites don't even force me to create account, my btc adress is enough. How awesome is that?
From the other side this simplicity may be bad for people with gambling problems and minors. There is no way to check if in casino +18 play a kid.

I've made a good amount of money with Bitcoin casinos BUT, I do not like the fact that when you deposit it doesn't show your U.S dollar amount. For some reason, I play more safe when my balance is displayed in dollars rather than Bitcoin. So yes, bitcoin casinos can be dangerous.

Bitcoin casino are way better but I still play as often as a regular brick and mortar casino just get to enjoy it in my home instead. Most issues come when you play for income instead of fun. Only very lucky people can make it a constant income. Play for fun this goes especially for people like the poster above.

It seems people are really curious

I was really addictive when i first discovered Bitcoin gambling, i lost all my coins in early 2013. Since then I stopped gambling(almost) and now i have decent amount of coins in my wallet.

no effect at all to me.

After a while I found gambling boring and walked away.

But I dunno how signature campaigns would be without gambling sites

That is mad that teenagers can max bet thousands and you have just made me think about it as I never did until now. Regulation will surly be around in the next few years because that is crazy.

Luckily I am old enough and ugly enough to know when enough is enough, how have I changed? I'm not sure I have to be honest. For sure it can be a pain having such easy access to alll these sites but I've always had self restraint and it has not been a problem till now.

In over 2 years I have lost around 5btc but most of them was when btc was less than $100, I've enjoyed it as a pass time. So all is well.

Have you noticed any change in yourself since finding Bitcoin gambling?
