Just like heroin or crack cocaine, it creates an addiction.
Same as was gambling
Many in here seem to have been caught up in it, spending far too much of their money on something. Partially to get the dopamine rush of buying more coin, and partially to satisfy their gambling lust hoping to score big.
It is no different than the people gambling their savings away on the roulette. Right now we are at the point where they have entered the casino and have been lucky, so they are up more money than they came. But instead of quitting while they are ahead they genuinely believe that their luck continues.
In the end it ends bad.
Thing is, we need currency, we use currency everyday. We don't need painkillers every day, and we don't use painkillers every day. That is the difference. It is something that matters. On a side note, the government takes about 90% of my work in taxes. You understand how big intrusion into my life that is? Crypto is here, and it can make a great change.

It is not only money invested but it takes up a lot of time and sometimes at the sacrifice of other things you could be doing, I know I am checking crypto prices more than 10 times a day. It is definitely up there with gambling.

So any business, the same business is easy to call a game on nerves and finances. After all, we do not stop there, but try to do more, increase volumes or raise the price, so everything is here.

Yes! we can say bitcoin is like heroin or any kinds of addictive drug because being bitcoin user even I`m so tired in my hard work in the real would I`m still here and participating to earn money, but I am addicted in bitcoin because using bitcoin i earn money. That is the same thing if someone using illegal drugs they are happy on what they have done, that`s the reason why they are continually use drugs.

I also have a similar feeling, it's like drugs, you sell bitcoin, you will always be worried about whether you will miss it a new round of rising, is simply the spirit of opium

Well it may be addictive but it's much healthier than taking hard drugs lol. I am wondering where we will be 5 years from now and if I am alive to see it at 57 years old by then, I would like to be totally retired, maybe just investing still in blockchain technology and posting on this forum. I wonder if we fast forward to that time we will be seeing maybe Bitcoin reach 100k USD. If I have 5 btc by then that won't be bad lol.

Bitcoin addiction is not too bad because it can push your limit to become better at crypto, trading and speculating Bitcoin got a high excitement so people can become addicted to it, usually the symptoms is keep on checking the price even though you don't have the coin

What do you mean by the statement that bitcoin is like heroin, do you mean it ability to get you addicted and always want to acquire more bitcoin. If that is what you mean by that statement you are right, but to my understanding every thing that has the ability to get you addicted is either in a positive or in negative impact and in the case of bitcoin is in the positive way because it get you addicted to wanting to acquire more wealth and improving you life and finances. So classifying bitcoin in the category of drugs is an analysis in a wrong dimension. Why not say bitcoin and Gold or real estate?

I disagree. It depends on everyone's personal. This is related to control psychology, if you can control yourself when in gambling or trading games, then you will not get stuck, whereas if you can't control it, then it's your own fault not bitcoins who like heroine as you said.

I agree with this view, yes, bitcoin is sometimes the same as drugs. Many people buy crazy, and some even borrow money to buy bitcoin, you know, this continues to develop will have more and more bubbles, wait until the market can not withstand so much speculation, lending money to buy bitcoin people are the worst people.

Bitcoin is really like heroin because with bitcoin you can earn big and also youll get rich if you will just work hard to ranked up to earn big also in mining and gambling as well.But not like drugs,bitcoin can help alot of people finacially and that is the most advantage about bitcoin also because of its high value.
Well then i am not sure how i feel about comparing bitcoin or other crypto currencies to drug substances like heroin or crack. While it is true that people get a rush to trading or holding bitcoin. The same could be said for fully regulated long established businesses like gambling or buying stocks on any exchange.

lmao.bitcoin like a crack? yes it's like a crack when the rate up so high or when you got big amount with small deposit. the rate go down or you lost all you have in gambling like you ran out of your crack. high and dry and ofc get stoned. And also gambling believe in luck. I agree with you man. That's why I rarely visit the gambling sites, I can't double my bitcoin(crack) anymore.

You can not snort or shoot up bitcoin so no it is not like herion. Also, you don't pay tax on herion Atleast it is the same as bitcoin, we don't need to pay taxes. But you don't need to "physically" compare bitcoin to heroin and other drugs that needed to be "snorted" or to be "shooted" up, it is just a figure of speech, bitcoin is like heroin because it is giving us addiction, addiction because of the profit it gives, not only in gambling but in investing it.

Here you want directly say that bitcoin is bad like heroin , bitcoin is bad like Gambling , bitcoin is bad like bad things that have bad results . Here This guy is totally out of understanding about the bitcoin Because he is saying without evidence and without going through it .It seems that OP is having the bitcoin in his life full of loss Because of lack of understanding otherwise why he will talk about it in such a way . Here OP needed to see what the profit and what is the advantages are associated with the bitcoin , Japan like big countries even accepted bitcoin as an legal way of payment , then ofcourse op is wrong at his place and bitcoin is more better and powerful to rise the economy of the countries who accepted it officially .

Like heroin BTC is good investment currently and you need to be cold-mind investor to earn more money with BTC however, I don't recomend to spend all fiat money for BTC

Well in terms of adiction or maybe effect to our self maybe it can be considered as heroin but in times of profit it really not like thta kind of heroin bitcoin cant really ruin someones life because bitcoin is just an asset about gaining and an extra work to have an extra income while heroin can make your life mesirable like you want to die and you well really act like you are not human while in bitcoin as long as you help your self you also help others by introducing bitcoin blessing to them.

Bad comparison in my opinion. If you're having trouble with addiction (in crypto or anything else) you should seek professional help before it turns into something worse and potentially unhealthy. Stay safe out there, remember that there's no need to keep track of prices 24/7.
