When the crypt-currency becomes a disease

[The Monkey King]

Would the dependency on crypto-currencies become a real disease? This is what the Castle Craig Hospital in Scotland thinks. Indeed, several patients would be dependent on the trading of virtual currencies . Doctors compare this addiction to gambling dependency. They therefore use the same methods to treat them, thus helping them to take a step back from their behaviour that is not normal.

Well, there's nothing wrong in adapting the cryptocurrency in our lives but I think too much use of it will not be good specially when people would depend their life needs in cryptocurrency. Ofcourse people should not depend on virtual source of income; they should have find atleast a permanent job because we know that this bitcoin job is not stable and if you are lucky then you'll get high income. I agree that too much dependency on cryptocurrencies may lead to a real society disease.

Crptocurrency can be highly addictive especially if you have tasted its fruits in form of rewards, you always want some more of it, more experience, its like a force attracting you towards crypto, but as a user, you have a personal responsibility to take care of yourself and avoid over indulging into crypto, if it turns into addiction then there is no good that will come from iit, try control your urge

The guys in the modern world who's curing the sad mood (a.k.a. "depression"), ADHD, Trypophobia or "cryptocurrency addiction" is damn ridiculous. People, stop searching for anything making you special. Do something, invent something or have some use for society — that is what deserve the attention

It’s a matter of laughing no its not disease because it’s a currency it’s not like social media that people are so busy with it based on if we think that real life currency is also sickness but it’s a rubbish thinking based on this it’s a income source of people so crypto is perfect.

May be for some people with so much capital to invest i think it can be addicted to them because they are looking a right investment that makes them beneficial.

I don't think that you can fairly compare gambling addiction to crypto currency addiction (if there's a case like that). Don't we really put their time on trading is not addicted for me. Maybe they really wanted to learn it. How about stock trading? Can we classify stock brokers who spend countless hours on the trading floor addicted as well?

So it doesn't makes any sense to treat them with the same method they used for gambling addiction. And its not fair to call them addiction in my opinion.

Just a few people mean not representing the whole so it may be that the disease is like a person who is too excessive to something so when he experiences something uncomfortable directly attack the person's mental.

[cryptovally01]

Too much dependency on crypto might be harmful for anyone and this is true for not only crypto but also every other thing. I think you should depend on crypto which you can manage to deal with else it migh be seriously dangerous if you trade like dumbs.

[bitcoinVPSD]

I think it's not an addiction here. It is not harmful to our health. Many people actually spend more time living and working with electronic money and it gradually becomes their passions. a passion for helping them make a lot of money. And this, I think, is not a illnesses  that we need to treat.

[keycellko]

Well addiction is a disease. Whether it be drugs, shopping, gambling or crypto currency. Anything that is done in excess of what is normal is still called abnormal. If you get into the cryptoworld, don't make it as something that your whole world revolves around. You just have to know when to tone down.

[indodaks]

I do not think it's a problem, because trading in crypto is not something forbidden. And those crypto traders will be responsible alone.

[gbale]

I do not agree with statements that say like gambling because not everyone considers virtual currency is just to invest more money, but more than that many people also make crypto as their main profession to survive.
does that also include gambling?

have you ever heard about workaholic? most people call it a disease and that comes from itself, sometimes the disease can come from oneself, so to avoid disease or addiction you should be able to control yourself

[bitbunnny]

Many are comparing cryptocurrencies trading with gambling, not just these medical experts, and we all know that gambling can turn into a bad addiction.
I don't agree that trading and gambling are the same things but I do agree that cryptocurrencies can take a form of addiction.
The crucial thing is to recognize symtomps at time and to admit that you have a problem if things have gone that far.  Like with everything else you have to know when it's time to stop.

[richan]

I wonder why people presume crypto currency dealings will results in psychological problems hence they coming out with topics related to crypto and addiction. What of social media, facebook and twitter. Are people not more addicted to it than what will bring them money onto their table?

Addiction is not a disease my friend. The society is dependent to money arent they? would you consider that as an addiction which has to be cured?

Obviously, becoming addicted to trading is never that different from being workaholic.

[harrypot]

Crypto currency has made a lot of peopleself dependent as this is why many people are relying on it too much that people even thought of selling their organs to but cryptos. But, this is not right. Everything should have a minimum level of work or everything should have within their limits. It should not be taken into an addiction.

[papasmurph]

Man can not choose what to become addicted to. Just as he would resist the strongest drugs, for example, he could become addicted to something ordinary and foolish to others. You just do not have to overdo with everything. 

[bigmaster23]

This addiction become very well known popular among the traders but many believe oneself can control her/his own action into this addiction they battling with. but if this is true we need to also prepare ourselves when using trading site beware on making a long period of time using the site this could get the involvement of something new to our mind so we cannot escape those grasp of the site, that's when we become addicted.

[brickafterbrickwalldpt]

Everything can be addictive and so are cryptocurrencies and trading. For some people it is a method of making for a living so we shouldn't be surprised that there are people who do it all the time. However I think that it is a serious problem and it might continue to grow as Bitcoin becomes more popular. I am not addicted to checking the price of Bitcoin unlike many people but it's still a huge problem. Some people have problems with sleep because they are afraid that Bitcoin might crash while they would be sleeping.
