4 Signs and Symptoms That You’re Suffering From Bitcoin Addiction

[Nanbaka]

this is funny, well on my opinion i cant really call someone an addict unless medically proven. i only call people who love bitcoins as bitcoin enthusiasts. like sports enthusiast's who love talking about their favorite sports

[traderethereum]

I think once we are involved in the bitcoin, we become the bitcoin addiction because all we want to do is how to get more bitcoin in many ways. And this makes us study about the way so we can earn more and more. Many of us have become addicting in bitcoin because we want to find out the other way so we can produce more bitcoin and fortunately, we can do many things to earn more bitcoin.

Many users are fanatical about bitcoin and the entire cryptocurrency market. Such people do not know how to think rationally, portend the Grand future of bitcoin and crypto-currencies, absolutely not wanting to notice their shortcomings and risks.

This is a very funny topic, but also very true. In bitcoin, I really found my hobby, my vocation, I am very interested in doing this and spending all my free time studying the crypto-currency market.

Let’s face it ladies and gentlemen, we all love Bitcoin right? However, we notice ourselves that every single day, we have our own habits in our daily lives. However, it all changed when we expose ourselves too much in Bitcoin and in the world of cryptocurrency.

Without further ado, I will share to you the common “signs and symptoms” that you are suffering from Bitcoin addiction:

1. Your Google Chrome/Firefox/Safari browser always have a tab reserved for CoinMarketCap

Hahaha!! I am so, so, so guilty of this one! When I was working or browsing with some stuff, I noticed that CoinMarketCap tab is present for most of the time. You know why? It is because the volatility of Bitcoin and other cryptocurrencies are so high, in which the price could change drastically whether if moons or dips.

I don’t know about you guys, though. Unless if you are a Bitcoin day trader, you would always reserve a tab for CoinMarketCap.

2. You are not excited in conversations unless if it’s about Bitcoin, blockchain, etc.

Ever since I engaged myself into cryptocurrency, I started to become passionate with it. However, I started to notice that when my family and friends are talking about their interests, I’m starting to get bored and may only socialize a little with them. However, when someone is mentioning about Bitcoin, blockchain, etc., my excitement level increases to talk more about that.

I know you guys are feeling the same thing, but not all, it depends.

3. You are excited when you hear the word “moon”

Of course, of course, of course!!! I love it when I hear that word “moon” because it is all about profiting from my Bitcoin investment. Not only Bitcoin though, but other coins and tokens as well that I am engaging with.

Every time I hear it, it’s like I cannot wait to check the charts once again. How about you guys?

4. Checking the price and charts is the first thing to do when you wake up and before you sleep


I am super, super, super guilty of this! I usually sleep around 2 AM to 3 AM, and before I sleep and turning off my Macbook Air, I check the price first. And when I wake up, I opened it and check CoinMarketCap immediately. Lol

I just don’t know if you guys are having the same habit as me, but it is what it is when we are having too much exposure with Bitcoin, blockchain, etc.

Are you suffering from Bitcoin addiction? Well then, welcome to the club!

Exactly, I realized that my time turned out to be more for bitcoin, and it turned out that what you said was true because the first to fourth points did occur in my life to this day.

[Urbinklin]

Great, I have a bitcoin addiction. But I do not see anything wrong with this, because this topic is very interesting for me, and besides this hobby brings excellent profits.

[bitvelk]

Bitcoin is really very easy to get infected. This topic is very exciting, I can sometimes spend the whole day and the computer, studying the news, articles, forecasts, market analysis. So I'm proud to call myself a bitcoin addict.

[jeffer8035]

comfieso I am addicted to bitcoin I do almost everything like your check coin marketcap every time and if I'm very excited about the new projects and also when I leave I can not stop checking my phone graphs and how are the prices in addition to participate in many cryptocurrency forums and see cryptocurrency news do trader and everything that has to do with bitcoin and block chains
watching all the days of the year since this is a job that does not work 365 days a year and 24 hours a day there is a lot of potential and the best thing is when you go to the moon only the trader understand those words

[tiktak89]

You're absolutely right. Bitcoin can be compared with any virus, because it is very contagious. All my friends, whom I told about bitcoin, also began to be interested in it and spend most of their free time studying the news and analyzing the market.

[digitalcryptocoin]

Its whole physiological game. I am completely agree with thoughts mentioned above for addictivity of not just for Bitcoin but all crypto.

Usually we get controlled by own ourself and for that we get trained as per our demands from our own expectations by ourself. And for that think we care so much and for care we need monitoring which give thought process for examine situation and condition whether its in favor or against.

People already involved in crypto are much close to above conditions. But right now newbies are also getting involved on higher number to crypto world.

All things and behaviour of current digital world along with technologies like as blockchain, AI and ML taking human being to virtual world to make financial activities which is really innovative and revolutionary platform for business. But at the same time human entering into new era of economics and finance.

Bitcoin makes a person do more than the usual, maybe because they have seen it happen to other people and they want it somehow to experience it, we're all know it and so those things happen without realizing that we are doing beyond normal things...I mean we exceed.. specially when we heard the words.. bull...moon and among others and we always keep ourselves updated as to not to be left behind.

[albert11]

Yes, almost all of this I'm experiencing and I can really say that I'm addict in bitcoin. It's almost time to see the price of bitcoin and other altcoin and I always look at the price. I always know all the news about crypto and I do not want to miss every news.

[Barcode_]

The first thing I would usually do after I woke up in the morning is to check the prices of bitcoin on the crypto-currencies trading market using my smartphone, I guess most of the traders who are trading bitcoin on the trading market might be suffering from bitcoin addiction, but I think it is normal for traders to keep track of their investment daily, and if it is not affecting their job in real life, I think it should be fine.

I think bitcoin is not addicted because what push a person to strive and work hard to earn bitcoin is to gain profit to support the needs of living, as for me bitcoin is not a game and can be stressful if we don't know how to handle it but profit awaits for those who understand and have a virtue of patience.

It really is an addiction, agreeing that it motivates a person to become more hardworking and think more to make money but because of the benefits and the change it brings, we have sunk too deep into it and become dependent. A very clear evidence is that many people after waking up, what they do first is to check the price of bitcoin then, the appearance of crypto, it occupies all the time of their day, they only care about crypto and crypto, the world around them is nothingness, family and friends are similar

[GirlBitcoin]

I dont think we are addicted to Bitcoin or Cryptocurrency, we just want us to have a lot of money from the Crypto market. So all the information about it you feel excited, especially the phrase "moon".
But now I am still pretty sad when Bitcoin prices fall. But I'm happy because I have a good chance to invest Bitcoin at a cheap price.

[DAVETUN]

Yes I am addicted to Bitcoin, it is an evolving digital currency that the world will sure accept in the near future, to see to it continuous existence we must ensure we remain steadfast, not minding the regular negative news, the future should be our focus, I even wake up in mid nigth to check whats is happening in the space. This is an addiction I don't want to stop.

[enhu]

The word "moon" i think died out already we use to read that word every now and then here but now that bear market hasn't lasted yet for almost a year, the excitement died too. bounty hunters are more excited when the word "distribution" is mentioned in the thread. Addiction to bitcoin would also die if you have invested to BTC while the price if more than 10k but watching the prices keeps us wake still.

[Thanasis]

You are right and I do not deny that it is true, I have been addicted to crypto, but I think that is natural because crypto can make a profit.

If you are getting addicted to something then you may face the consequences as well,if your intention is to make more cryptos with your skills then you addiction may be helpful for that by making you do hard works but you just gamble with speculation then it may be harmful.

[bitfocus]

Awesome one and very humorous! none of them will suit me as I start my day checking my mails, calender and Skype, - I check CoinMmrketCap 5/6 times a Day. BTC and Blockchain is awesome topics, but I feel them just as interesting as my everyday job. Moon is always exciting to me, and I love to see BTC to go moon, man and women to go moon, poem about moon and looking at the moon - I am all loony, lol! Well, half-guilty about the forth one, I check prices and charts before I go to bed, everyday.
