I think invest is the same way to gamble..
.
Gamble have chance to win 50% : 50%..
If you can calcute your bet and desire to betting, you can get a lot btc, but if you just play for fun and can't stop your desire to betting, you will broke..
.
.
Invest have chance to double 50% : 50%..
If you invest, there is many fake investment in internet.. We have 50% to trust that a good investment or not..
.
So, gamble and invest are very risk.. But if you won't try it, you never get chance..
.
I choose betting something, cause I make a choice red or black for my self.. I get money cause my choice, I lost my money cause my choice..

Investing is gambling in my mind.  But if you're going to gamble on a gambling site, make sure that you're getting the right odds....I try not to play games that have a house edge.  Poker's my game.  I do have some investments in a few altcoins but those markets are pretty volatile so I wouldn't advise a newcomer to get involved with them until they've done their research.

You are correct that investing itself is also a type of gambling. As long as there's a risk of losing your capital, it can be considered a gamble. If you know what you are investing on and thinks that it could give a good return with a tolerable risk level, I think it is worth investing in.

Investing, where you can lower your risks with research, planning and good plan implementation.
There are not instrument of Investment who free of risk, but if you wanna try make Investment with low of risk, i think you must try make website gambling although it will need much cost and capital.

Even if you make a gambling website, it is not assured that people will go to your site and gamble. With the number of gambling sites running, it will be hard to fight for gamblers to go to your site. So, it is not actually a low risk business. But it is a profitable one if you can through all that competition.

I agree that investing is gamble itself.  But it is more safer than playing gambling game.  It is also true that altcoin is really unpredictable and you can't use the candle stick for the future prediction. Most altcoin are manipulated by whales and subject to pump and dump. You can try forex trading, candle stick there is pretty much reliable to predict the future trend of price.

Not all investment is type of gambling i think if you invest in gambling to play a game that is gambling itself, investing in bank is the best than investing in gambling that have a big difference of risk include in your investment.

Investing in a bank has also a risk. If the bank gets bankrupt then you will lose all your money on it. But it only happens very often. Same in investing in a gambling site or casino . But what i did already is i just invested my Bitcoin in one of the top online casinos here. And i only gamble what i get from faucet.

When you are having your investment without any research, then it is more dangerous than gambling. At least in gambling you might have some control over your money in the case of investments, it is totally out of your control. Only if your investment site is STILL legit, you might get your returns, other wise it must be similar to gambling.

Although a lot of things you say make sense, gambling is still extreme risky. In fact, it is one of the worse 'investment' as the expected yield is negative. That means by gambling, you are expected to lose and get a lesser amount of your money.

I guess it would be a very hardest question to answer. Because there will not be any legit investment opportunity to share here. Even some sites are paying right now they might turn scam at any time in future. If you are ready to invest in any future scam, then you can google and find many with your own responsibility.

How can you invest in a bank? If you mean save money in a bank, then it is not investment. It does not even earn that much. Most of the time it just earn a little over 1% in a year. You can earn more investing in a gambling site if you choose correctly.

Between gambling and investing, everyone should know that gambling is WAY riskier than investments. Gambling involves greediness, you can't get greedy in investments. Gambling is all about luck, investments can be done smartly like the magnates are.

I Suggest you to Stay away from all the investment and gambling sites because these sites have very high Risk, but I also suggest you can invest in Trading Bitcoins on localbitcoins.com....
Hahaha! I was just confused of what you say at the first, you said that "Stay away from ALL the investment and gambling sites", but at the last part of your post was "but I also suggest you can invest in Trading". What is really what you want to say?
Hmmm. I just the main reason is that you suggest investing than gambling? Am I right? Because for me, I will also suggest investing than gambling, yes they have both risky but different type of risk and for me investing is more safer than gambling but first we must all know how it works before we enter it. We need more knowledge here and more analyzing.

I think invest is the same way to gamble..
.
Gamble have chance to win 50% : 50%..
If you can calcute your bet and desire to betting, you can get a lot btc, but if you just play for fun and can't stop your desire to betting, you will broke..
.
.
Invest have chance to double 50% : 50%..
If you invest, there is many fake investment in internet.. We have 50% to trust that a good investment or not..
.
So, gamble and invest are very risk.. But if you won't try it, you never get chance..
.
I choose betting something, cause I make a choice red or black for my self.. I get money cause my choice, I lost my money cause my choice..
It is very unwise to generalize like that. Firstly - what casino games and investing systems you have on mind while saying that there is 50% chance?
Because there are games where your chances of win could be as high as 96% and higher same with sport betting.
When you skillfully use every possible betting option (i.e chose handicap etc.) your chances of winning rise dramatically.

I have invested in crypto-games.net. It has honestly been the only way I have been able to recover my gambling losses.


https://snag.gy/c6iLmT.jpg


how much minimal deposit on there? and we are make lending to gambler, right?

Minimum investment amounts are: 0.01 Bitcoin, 0.5 Ether, 1 Dash, 1 Litecoin, 20.000 Dogecoin, 10 Peercoin, 500 GameCredits and 1000 GridCoin. Minimum deposits are much lower (0.0001BTC). The investments are into the sites bankroll. Over the long term you are expected to see growth in your investment due to the house edge.

  Provably fair DICE, SLOT, BJ, ROULETTE, POKER, PLINKO & LOTTERY

Gambling itself means to gamble and in the end you lose out. While investing is an making investment and if invested in right products yields you profits. Investing is always better. But it's good to keep some saving money too. . I feel it's a risky investment but to win you need to take risks.

Why? Because it sounds more professional and it gives you fake feeling of being a serious businessman instead of a pitiful and delusional gambler?
It is not exactly that easy to say - "investment is better", actually if you look closely you can find pretty number of 'serious investors' totally bankrupted because they failed somewhere.

If I have 1 Btc Then I Can Invest This Amount In Trading Because Trading has less Risks and The Trader Have Complete Control of his Funds and It Doesn't Depends Upon Your Luck.
On the Other Hand Gambling Depends Upon Pure luck and If the User has no Complete Knowledge about gambling then he Can lose their all Funds in a Second......
