I've lost

[rodel caling]

OP not exactly lost their investment become their coins is their storage wallets during the dump, OP lost their patience to wait the pump pf bitcoin and op decide to gamble because he want to get back their money by doing this solution op try their luck to get back their money in the fastest way even he know the risk.

[lixer]

Greedness has been the more reason why people do lose in gambling and investments. It is a very bad spirit and very few can control it. I have been trading and gambling and two things that has made me to make loses are greed and impatience. If you can get control over these two you will succeed in both gambling and trading!

I think being greedy is not really the problem, it depend on the level of greed because sometimes, greed even make us to do better. Maybe from my experience though, I have noticed that  when you wish to play more in order to gain more, it works perfectly, might not be consistently but so many times I noticed it that greed can sometimes serve as a motivation.

I am not encouraging anyone to be greedy, and moreover I don’t even see any form of greed with what the OP did, he did what was right and I am sure anyone would have done same. It’s just too bad that luck decided to be unfair to him with the game; we all know that gambling is a game of luck. Maybe we should always check our stars to be sure it will be favorable in gambling.

Some point in time where that desire overtake and conquer your mindset, instead of quitting you intentionally go forward challenging yourself to reached for more,of you do have that luck then it can increase more of your winnings but if fate play you up make sure you are ready to accept your defeats.

I am just amazed at your level of reasoning, I am sorry I do not mean to be rude. How can you take greed as a motivation with all the motivating factors in gambling?

Greed irrespective of the level is a disaster and would doom any gambler that is involved. Contentment is the key to success in gambling and it is a contented gambler that would understand setting limit saves a lot of loses. Your intention may not be to mislead, maybe this has worked for you, but in gambling reality, greed is not a good idea for anyone.

For the OP, I am sorry about your lost and I hope you find a way to get back on your feet soonest. I know this kind of feelings because I have been in a situation like this. I thought my world had ended but here I am today bouncing and fulfilled. I recovered and I believe you will.

[Freshmen]

It is really a sad thing that's why we need to be very careful in everything especially after the betting I cannot change anything so my opinion is to make everything to be calm and composed then only you can do better in the betting also candidate will save your life in sometime

Always be careful especially in gambling because gambling can change your life either positively or negatively. OP must learn how to control yourself when it comes to gambling because lack of self control makes you regret in the end. This is what happened to you OP, even you know that you are losing you still gamble until most of your funds have been lost. Learn how to stop when you need to.

I don’t think this has anything to do with self-control. Anyone could make the mistake made by the OP, no matter the level of self-control. The way bitcoin went down at that period, one could be forced to look for an alternative which was exactly what the OP did. It was just unfortunate that he wasn’t lucky and I can feel his pain but I hope he gets restoration soon.

I have made this kind of mistake before but I learnt my lesson. Mine wasn’t even into gambling, I was scared about the drop in bitcoin, then withdrew my money and put into a business that crashed, it was at that moment bitcoin increased drastically. It was really painful.

[Fedice]

I've lost big. Over the last two or three years, I've lost 60K in total. It was almost my entire savings.
It started out with a large investment in bitcoin when the price was about 13K.
When the price dropped to below 4K, I lost all hope after waiting forever and gambled it on bitcoin gambling sites trying to triple it up, just to make my money back.
I lost that and a lot more. Never imagined it turning out this way. Especially after the price went back up.
I don't have a lot of close people to turn to nowadays. It's hard to get through each day feeling horrible. Just needed to reach out somewhere.
Sorry if this isn't the place.

So sorry to read your story, it's indeed heart wrecking. Just hold yourself together and try to bounce back. People have been in worst situations before but still bounce back on their feed. Don't feel overly despair, neither is anyone blaming you for that. What you did at that time was the best you know.

It would be beneficial if you can talk to a physiologist and see if good advice may help. Whatever happens, just know that there is much ahead than the ones you lost. Do not do anything funny to yourself nor feel excessively guilty. Money comes in and goes out on daily basis, sometimes, for the wrong reasons.

Just be in control of your thought, you are going to gain much more in life beyond what you lost. Always put a limit to what you can gamble, remembering that the outcome of any gamble is never assured.

Be strong!

[ethereumhunter]

Sorry with your losses, you did a wrong choice whilst you are still into loss.

While we are in sympathy with OP’s losses yet he must realized this kind of mistakes is not normal and him being greed is the reason about this

I know how painful it is to lose that amount while looking at the price hike of bitcoin. Cheer up man, there's still a lot of chances for you to recover in some other ways.

He must not risk the holding for gambling because those are different thing.he was stocked in the dumping price of bitcoin but he gambled the fund instead of waiting for the pump

Most of the time users get into gambling when there is immediate need for money. Long back they would've spend on gambling and have won a little. With that hope and not analysing much about the risk starts spending. This further turns to be a spending to recover back the loss. As in the quote lot many ways available for increasing the holdings, gambling too is one among the same when played understanding the limits.

If they think that they can fast money from gambling, then that will be a big mistake, and I hope that he will realize that soon. We cannot depend on gambling to make money because gambling was not a way to make money, although some people can do that. Still, we need to know that gambling is a way to entertain, and if we still use gambling as a source to make money, then get prepared for big losses.

It's not just for people who need immediate money who visit gambling places. After gambling becomes a lifestyle, someone will visit it as often as possible. Btw, I found a strange habit from gambling addicts. It seems that lose is the only goal they want to achieve, whether they realize it or not. Why? Most gamblers will quit after they have no more money to bet on. Meanwhile, when they win, they continue to gamble until they lose everything. I mean, as long as gambling addicts have money, they will keep gambling and they will stop after they are broke. Controlling our greed will become a must if we don't want to be such addict.

I feel no one is above being addicted in gambling, this is the reason as a player will must always understand our limit. Before now, addiction is always blamed on people in need of money or desperate gamblers but the number of addicted gamblers I have been opportune to meet this days are those who even played for entertainment, which means it’s all about self-discipline.

Besides what happened to the OP can also be linked to self-discipline because I do not understand why a player would be so blind to knowing that gambling is not an alternative to Bitcoin. Regardless how bad or the condition of cryptocurrency, it’s still more stable and better to be trusted than gambling that is unpredictable.

[peter0425]

Greed could be take in two ways. One could be a motivation for you to make more and more money if you have great experience of doing so. This is important because your ability motivates you to make more and more. On the other hand, it is destructive because if you do not have what it takes to make money, you will lose the present capital as well.

But I believe that greed will only make us losing more money in gambling games because we will attract to play the games longer than we can realize. And of course, we will spend more money because we expect to make more winning. Without having self-control for ourselves, we are hard to control how much money we will spend because once we win, we always want to make more winning.

Agreed mate because greediness is the root of all failure in gambling because with this attitude,you will have no control in playing because all you want isn’t to win,win, and win without even thinking for your money at all..
Why need to ask for big profit in gambling when the truth is by holding our currency we already in gambling but with a big hope that in future our money will gain more than much we expected

Gambling is not for everyone and this is what every new comer in the field need to understand. Gambling is very uncertain and if you are not in a position to afford good loss, you should not get involved in game. It is also about experience and about investment in yourself. With loss, you learn and that is enough to enable you win so be ready for worst and do your best.

You are correct about OP has lost his patience, but you are wrong about he already know the risk while he decided to gamble his money. He didn't prepared for that and gamble little amount until he lose it all (see, he said he has lost $60k in nearly 2-3 years, not in a night)

One thing I learned about Bitcoin is "patience". If you don't have this better stay away from any crypto assets. Imagine if you bought Bitcoin last February 2019 at price of $3,500 USD, ow much profits have you booked by now. Even when the price of Bitcoin dipped at $9,500 USD last July 31 and fluctuated to $12,000 USD, you earned 20% from that. Patience and stick to your target is the name of the game in Bitcoin.

His case is way different from greediness.
It's more like being impatient, if he had waited enough for some years, he would have leap the gain.
This same impatient is what drove some people to trading too.
We should learn to drop the notion of purposely tripling the btc we have through either gambling or trading.
It use tyo work before but not anymore.

[RealMalatesta]

Just know that you are not alone in this, in someway every gambler can relate to it. Specially the ones who are addicted to it.

But, you didn't lose everything. The best thing that happened was you got to realize your mistake and you must now take steps to ensure that it doesn't happen again.

Invest what you can afford to lose and firmly stand to it. But know that, unless the investment is in pure scam, you will not 100% of the invested funds ever. Even if the company dissolves, you would still have hope. But you have a real chance to lose 100% of your wealth in gambling and there will be no hope of them returning back.

It's a black hole and it's wise to prevent it rather cure. But there's still hope and cure available. Hope you recover your happy life, a happy life is much more than a couple of bucks

I almost thought it was my exact story shared when I read the post lol, so it is very obvious that so many gamblers had been through this, so OP is definitely not alone and just like we all recovered I believe he will and this time, he would have learnt new lessons.

I would advise the OP to talk to a specialist and as well always be around people that would make him happy. The advice given here might not be enough to see him through because if he’s not very careful, he can go into depression. I almost committed suicide when I had this problem but I am glad I had very nice people that kept on encouraging me to let go and move on, today it’s a thing of the past and I have almost forgotten I once lost a very huge amount of money.

Well the funny thing is, when people are experience loss in a gamble, that is only the time they remember their relatives/friends or find someone to borrow money from. I am not saying that is what you are doing right now but as much as I feel bad in your situation, you know that you are the cause of your suffering. Gambling can only make someone suffer in the long run especially that the act is prone to addiction.

What you can now do is to learn from your experience and MOVE ON. Unfortunately, most people who are in your exact situation still gamble hoping to recover their losses from the activity that caused them their insolvency. Stay away from gambling and focus more into different areas wherein you can improve yourself as an individual.

Yes this is about patience, therefore in investing patience is very important and when patience is not prioritized, the OP has provided a picture of impatience that will only end with a very deep disappointment, and again he chooses gambling which basically has to be played with good mood and stable. So it's no wonder why he lost everything due to a mistake in making a decision when panicking is something to be considered wisely.

This is why gambling industry is so big because of these kind of gamblers.People are way too impatience which in result to making impulsive behaviors that do mainly affect their betting habits.

If someone do knows on how to handle theirselves in times like this then its most likely we do limit our losses.I cant deny that people are way too emotional or mainly
affected when they do lost up money no matter how cool you are when you do first play.

And ends up losing all profit because of their greediness. I know it’s not that easy to control ourself when it comes to gambling and you’re bets are winning in a row, but self-control should’ve be the most likely way we need to have when it comes to gambling to stop our greediness.

Exactly

[kodark]

I lost too mate, not that much but my life savings (u$1k) and still I am recovering from $7 to $350 now .

Be strong, gather money again and avoid gambling. Always, always trust in BTC , it will be the most expensive asset in earth.

Learn from your mistake, dont gamble your entire bankroll at once. Buy some ripple doge whatever and test strategies and what you can afford to lose.
