Some people in the past had the chance to hold, they wanted to but they kept gambling which let them missed the train. The train is here again for you to begin your hodling trip into 12x possible journey of bitcoin within the next 15 years. 2x to 3x or probably more is possible in the next bull run which is also a very good thing.
Gamble and enjoy yourself but do not be tempted to use your hodl money to gamble. It can be tempting because you have bitcoin, the gambling site accept bitcoin which makes it easy. What you should think most of is hodl, gamble small and enjoy hodling.
Say I will gamble but not with the money I want to hodl and not with money that I am already hodling.
But you are holding bitcoin, not money? Right? Imho it's not relevant if you are using money or bitcoin, because you can always use money to buy bitcoin.
Or are we supposed to do nothing else with our money? Don't gamble because you can buy bitcoin, don't buy candy because you can buy bitcoin, don't buy new shoes, computer, gifts, drink or socialize because you need to hodl?
If you want to gamble, when why would it matter if you gamble with bitcoin or money, if that's your budgeted gambling budget anyway?
