Just like heroin or crack cocaine, it creates an addiction.

Same as was gambling


Well its addicted by it didn't have the negative effects of being addiction to drugs.

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.

The rush of buying bitcoin has been here since bitcoin started. But unlike gambling, most of us have already scored big specially the early adopters. Gambling on the on the other hand, gives you the hope to win big, but most of the time you ended up losing in the end. In bitcoin, the more you hodl the higher chances you will profit.

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.

We understand the risk that's why there are people who really put savings in bitcoin because they believed in it. But in the end all its good because in bitcoin you have a high chance of winning as compared to gambling. So your argument that bitcoin is like gambling is wrong at the very beginning.

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.
A good opinion and I like your opinion.
If everything has a high value then you definitely have the most benefit from bitcoin.

i am totally agree with you but for trading bitcoin i think its a good enough than we are only playing gambling because in the end, we can always take profit from the trading and we can make big money from bitcoin. i don't have my luck work in the gambling games but i have my luck work in trading so i think i will choose for trading bitcoin only but i can playing gambling games too.

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.

Bad comparisons are freightjoe's specialty, he creates a few of these threads to troll every day. Of course, there are some people that are probably over financially exposed to Bitcoin and would suffer at some point if the price decreases dramatically. However, comparing a psychological addiction to a physical one caused by a chemical dependency doesn't  really work. There are not many heroin users that can control their use, but many involved in Bitcoin are fully in control of the risks they take with their money.

I don't think it is like heroin or cocaine Because it has always the Better thing and results to have than what the cocaine like stupid things have , cocaine like things are only made to addiction for the people and give them death but here bitcoin is like the way to makes your dream  in to real .
Here perosnally I myself was against the bitcoin but when I came across the bitcoin field throughout then I found that it is not that option where we can money by investing but it is more than a assets where we can do another buisiness at worldwide level and much more than what we can expect .
So here everyone should be positive to have bitcoin in our life and use it for good things like make money and realise the dream and to help the country to increase the economy .

As a trader i dont think so that it is an addiction because at first if you are trading mostly lack of sleep because you are monitoring your coin and market because of profit margin or any loss we all know that. Also  i dont think so that keep tracking your coins 24/7 is a bad choice well that is the strategy on gaining profit though it is unhealthy we aint saying that we are not sleeping it is just hour by hour we check.

That's correct , it's just like gambling so prepare yourself for the worst.
But if you're lucky enough , you able to earn some profit from it as you can see bitcoin value at the moment. Of course there are some risk that bear with it !

,in short he means it was addicting, well once you see the results it really do become addiction. in life once we see the developments we get attached to it already, and since bitcoin has proven that it could change lives for over so many testimonies proved that it changed the way they look in life, then it probably is addicting, but not totally that money is your life already, it is that you can live your life with your own terms.

You can not compare investing on bitcoin with gambling. Gambling depends on pure luck with no uncertainty.  If you are lucky enough, you win big. If you are unlucky, you lose it all. But investing on bitcoin gives you a certainty of profit. Even if you lose a little bit, it will end up recovering and giving you massive profit in the long run. You also have better control over your risks.

The addiction is always pay better money. If you put money btc your addiction there. If you love love something automatically we addicted to it.

This addiction is worth always. You see how btc in 2009 and now. If you were addicted during those days , now you billioner.

we all need universal power and cyclist of Everything
-2023 would most likely be as bearish as 2022-

Bitcoin is not like gambling.In gambling,we totally rely on the luck for our earnings.I don't know how buying bitcoins could be compared to gambling.In gambling,either we double our invested money or totally,we loose our investment.I hope no one has lost his invested money yet in bitcoin totally.Investment in bitcoin is just like investment in gold.

I think it is true, ever since I started earning bitcoin, I always check updates about bitcoin from time to time. I find more ways so I can earn more. People are going crazy over bitcoin because it is really profitable. A lot of people became rich because of bitcoin and crypto trading.

Maybe we consider the bitcoin as an heroin because it makes other people addicted on it. Their are too many advantages and helps you can get in able to deal with the bitcoin process that truly makes you interrested about it and know more deeper than other through visiting it day by day.

Bitcoin is like heroin, that's if you connect it in gambling/gambling with bitcoin.
We have to know, generally bitcoin is not for negatively activity only.. and not for gamble only. It sounds bad to me.. Sad I think it's not worth bitcoin equated with heroin, which's really very special for me.
You have to know, not just gambling associated with bitcoin, there are many other more positively things that we can create or do with bitcoin. It's depends on the person alone, he/she is good or no to using bitcoin in their activity.
