I think i will be home and dry with 200 bitcoins and above, at the current rate, i think that should make me a millionaire in US Dollars and i wouldn't look back to gambling again if i ever win such an amount somehow.
You are saying this because you haven’t earned too much money like this. Remember one thing, the money you earn without doing any struggle would end up like you never had such money and at that time, I am damn sure that you will return for gambling again to get back all that luxuries and let me tell you one more thing, the next time you jump back to gambling can be your last jump if you fail to win.

For and addicted gambler, no amount of profit will stop them from gambling because they are addicts.

For reasonable people though this is not true and one might stop after winning a set amount of money. But there's no end of greediness.

In my case, I will stop after winning 10 BTC because I'll be too busy Driving my Porsche instead of Gambling^^

How many BTC it would take for you to quit gambling and why? Or, if any amount of BTC would make you quit gambling at all.



FOR me I’m guessing that one bitcoin can be enough for ke to stop as I am not and addicted gambler or a problem person when tncomes to playing and with that coin I can easily start a business sownwhere else and be auccessful in it

Money is never enough and you may set numbers of coins which would satisfy you and will let you stay away from gambling, but it's only a fantasy, cause of no matter how much money you have you will come back to gambling again and again; and I suppose bigger money just can wake up bigger attraction to gambling, cause of you kinda cannot afraid  about your financial situation anymore, so you can leave money on gambling freely.
I agree with you because man is in the hunger of money. Everyone wants to become richer than he is in the present state and for that, people commit a lot of big sins and they don’t even notice what they are doing with other people. They simply need money and for that they can do anything beyond the limits they have set for them. People return back to gambling no matter how much they have made from it because they rely on it for all of their needs.

Lol it wouldn't take 1 btc to stop if you're not an addicted gambler.  1btc is pretty hard to achieve nowadays. There are a lot of things i can do with the money leading up to 1btc

From what you have said,i realized that even a person who  has already a certain big amount of money this idea won't make him stop from gambling.People has no satisfaction in all the achievements he's gaining so the more he had at the present,the greater the chances that he will aspire for more.Literally it's not the amount of money that matters,its the attitude towards it on how he can get away from gambling.Once a person is focused on his goal,then eventually he will get a positive result in the end.

Probably I will stop gambling if I have around 50-100 BTC for my winnings. That would be enough for me to quit and focus on building my own house and my moms' dream house too, and that amount of money would also be enough to pay for my daughters' tuition fees from high school up until college. And the rest would be for putting up a business so the money would still be revolving and of course trading some too.

If there's an option like if i have already big btc why not going to quit because it's really big but if i have 100 btc then i think i quit to do gambling then i will spend that in not risky things like do a business in market or buy house and lot.I think also if we are here in crypto we already take the risk in anything because the price of digital currency here have volatile price better to do is save your money then always plan your future like do hardwork now then save your profit here.

It's impossible to stop gambling especially if you've won so much Bitcoin. On the other hand, most people only stop when they have got nothing left.
You are right, I don't think that people they didn't have any greed about money, even too bit greed. So even a gambler win a huge amount that he can live with it in the whole life, they want more.

Yeah, it is impossible that people stop or quit gambling if they already achieve their desire from it. Even i think gamblers play gambling more becasue they have earned from it and in gambling usually gamblers have no limitation to quit gambling in the winning stage. The reason Gamblers have no least stage of greediness.
Yes, no one can stop to gamble even he had achieved what he wanted to achieve from gambling in his life because the greed for more never allows them to sit at their place and they rely upon gambling to meet their basic life needs and for that, they simply move forward to gambling when they face financial crisis. I have also seen gamblers who are at the last stages of life but still they play gambling to earn money.
That's the thing that we need to work on if we are gambling all the time. The greediness inside of us is the only thing that comes between profit and loss. If you know how to control it and limit yourself it would be beneficial for yourself and also for your bank account. What do you even mean by last stages of life? Are they dying? Probably losing all of their money would result to that.

People might find a hard time to quit gambling specially when they hold much money, so I think having a huge amount of bitcoin can't help you to quit gambling. If you really want to stop gambling the first thing you should do is to control yourself which people forgot to do so. You can control greed at the first place so you better think again and focus more on what matters to you most.

Well everybody will quit at some point if they lose enough money. I don't think anyone would risk everything just to continue gambling. For sure the only ones that would lose everything are the ones that are really addicted to gambling. Those people will surely lose everything before they quit, not because they wanted to but more of because they have no more money to bet with. The key to gambling is really to just gamble with money you can afford to lose and not bet more than that.

I think it's ok to just get 1 bitcoin and hold it until the price rises because today's only big money is that 1bitcoin I earn on gambling and if ever I get it it stops me gambling as it gets I've also asked for this money, but it's far from happening because it's worth a big investment to get 1bitcoin out of your life but I'll try to get it as well as it will get you.

Maybe it will work for occasional gambler to stop once they get a big amount of bitcoin from gambling but if you're talking about those addicted on gambling I doubt they are going to stop. Maybe they'll gamble even more. As for me since im not really into gambling but if i have enough bitcoin to sustain our daily life I wont gamble ever again.

I think it will be as much of bitcoin that we can win to quit gambling forever Grin although we don't have a big chance to win a big bitcoin. if you want to quit from gambling, don't wait to win the game but you can quit in every time you want before everything is too late for you. you need to realize that to quit from gambling don't have required much of bitcoin and only need to leave the gambling places as soon as you can.

For many people it becomes too late before they realize that they have already lost the hug money in the gambling and they have actually left with not much choice but to quit gambling. Thus if people can realize it that its not good for them as they could lose their own money they might quit by themselves rather than somebody offering them money to quit.
We should use the word here ’majority’ instead of ‘many’ because this is the truth that for majority gamblers, it is too late when they come to realize that they have lost big amount in gambling and there is no way left for them for which they should move back and continue their life as all the family members also have discontinued their relation with such a gamblers because they don’t want to suffer due to what most gambler doing.

The money we need to spend for quitting gambling may differ but definitely will go beyond the limit we may afford to lose. That is the reason we cannot it is commonly do say by people that we cannot escape from the dangers of gambling usually.

That's true ,always hard for an addict player to completely leave gambling, there's always a time for you to think deeply that at some point you have to back to gamble to repeat the same thing as you have done previously, it's complicated for sure if you are an addict, no matter how much money you have got as a prize, it's hard.

I wouldn't quit gambling completely even if I won the JackPot biggest prize, because I don't play exclusively for profit and to become rich, but to have some fun. The difference is that after winning a big prize I wouldn't gamble online anymore, I would travel to the nice cities in the world to play on the land based casinos there with all confort I could have. Those playing to become rich will become poorer than they are now.
And those playing trying to feel rich while doing so will become really poor as well, if I won any kind of big jackpot I will not gamble anymore and invest that money and live out of my investments for the rest of my life that way I will not have to ever worry about money again.

i doubt it that you can quit gambling with 10btc because the way you deliveer this
thread poiting that your a gambling addict,with 15-20,000$ price of bitcoin and your aiming
for the big 10 btc.confirmed addict.

And being a winner of 10btc for sure you will aim for another big one after winning.
If you really wanted to quit gambling you will quit even without winnings

It's not bad to play like you're rich but what's worse is that you're rich but you are not humble or brags in front of everyone about it. What's worse is that you play like a rich person but that's the only money you got left, you would lose everything and be broke after playing. I hope I would have that kind of investment that would set me up for life.

A gambler doesnt know how many will he/she have to lose before he/she will quits gambling forever, as long as the person enjoys gambling the person wont stop gambling, there are many reason why the person gambles if that person doesnt find gambling amusing then he/she will quit.

Gambling for the sake of making money will never has a good ending strory for sure.
Let's say you set a target like when you have achieved 500 bitcoin from gambling as a prize you will leave it forever.
That is bullshit , i doubt you can realize it since you have a wrong mindset about gambling itself.
