Each block is stacked on top of the previous one. Adding another block to the top makes all lower blocks more difficult to remove: there is more "weight" above each block. A transaction in a block 6 blocks deep (6 confirmations) will be very difficult to remove.

If by investing you mean "ponzi schemes" then that's never recommended , I don't suggest gambling either It's just a matter of time before the player becomes greedy and end up losing everything or In best cases , he will win , stop then comeback later to lose it all. Instead , I prefer the real investing , which is buying BTC for the long term and HODL then sell whenever the price looks good.

Well it depends on where you are going to invest your money. If you are gonna invest on cloudmining/hyip sites then yes you will only lose your money but if you want to invest on a gambling site so you have better chance to make profit.
Gambling or investing on gambling sites is a preference, some people tend to gamble their money but some others tend to invest it and hope other players are in a big lose so they can make profit Smiley

Depend on what site did you invest ,

Let say if the dice site for example : primedice opening investment option , most people will try to invest there in no doubt

But imagine if 999dice open investment option, there will lesser people interest to invest there compare with primedice

At the end, invest and gambling still have their own risk , do not afford more than you can afford to lose

We should know what is at stake and do some research before invest wherever it is,  of course we don't want to invest in scam sites and it's easy to recognize as they usually offer an easy money or double it without you do anything and have no guarantee of your capital. I recommend to invest in real life or just hold up your bitcoin instead of gambling which you could lost all of it.

The risk is common in both case, but we can take a risk on Investment. Yes if we invest money in any well reputed and most popular site I am sure we will make 100% profit. But yes there are a lot of scammers are there, to finding scam sites is easy, you just check that site history you will get all details.

gambling and investment has advantages and disadvantages of each. with gambling, you can earn so much money in a short time, but, it risks losing a very large, and I think it took courage to do it. while investment is, how to make money or bitcoin that you have to grow by investing the money that had, however, it takes a long time until you can make a profit, but investment has a smaller risk than gambling

first, you need to understand what is an investment and then you can ask this question.
this ponzi schemes you are talking are definitelly worse than gambling...

gambling is a hobby, you cant have it as a way to earn money.

First, I guess there is already a thread for this. But with your mindset that most of investing sites are just scam, no you are wrong with that. Investing is not just all about depositing your bitcoins and in return you will get some profit. How about the trading sites, most of them are trusted by many people here, maybe you just need to know the trusted sites that you need to invest.

Surely "to invest" is the best option. And both options are somehow connected. You can invest in gambling!  Smiley

Use your investment in casino bankroll and you will be increasing your little fortune step by step. It's not very profitable, but better than other options we see on the internet. If it's not interesting for you, you can also invest in real life. Search in your area what people would buy, what they want, and you can start your business. Nothing very large, something little to make some profit.

actually there are some people who are interested in gambling and they like to invest money in gambling as they have good experience in gambling, while other people consider gambling as illegal activity and they like to invest in trading altc coin and they have good experience in trading alt coin, therefore to me it depend on the interest of the people.

Both of your example aren't gonna happens, also no one would invested their money in scam site (999dice).

"investing websites",look at first where you're going to invest, i'm agree with people who said don't invest your money in couldminning/HYIP/PONZI sites, you're 100% will get scammed. If you want invest your money, i suggest you to invest JUST ONLY in reputable and trusted gambling sites (i don't need to tell again because you can find it easily on gambling section).

You are right. Every single online investing programs are all scammer. They build they project so as to take people money and then run away. They use money which belongs to latest investors to pay for early investors. This is called Ponzi scheme. You should stay away from it or you must prepare to meet scammers around. On the contrary, Gambling does not lie to people. We should gamble instead of investing.

If you're talking about those high yield investments then it is right because those don't have any working model, just want to cheat people and run away with the people money. But at all sites on the internet are scams, and you can find some good and trusted casino sites in this forum. For fun I choose gambling and for growing money investments.

There is not guaranty that you will get an every week or a month passive income from casino investments and sometimes you may be under loss for quite some time. But if you wait for your profits to play gambling for fun than it still ok because you're not addicted to these games. I gamble only for enjoyment and won't expect any money from it.

With gambling, you are guaranteed to lose in the long term.

I prefer investing because there is a higher chance to make money, providing you make good investments

No guarantees of certain income every week or month, but there is a certain to have a income at some point. If you let your money there for a long time, you surely will make at least a small profit, because casino will make profit. If you are not in a hurry to get profit and make money, it is a good investment, just let your money there and forget it for some time.  Wink

Correct, If we need an entertainment, then we should go to gambling and shouldn't expect profit from those games except fun. But if you're looking for a profit then should invest in few different assets like in bitcoins, casino investments, real estate investment, gold and .... I do prefer investing than gambling.
