Perhaps we should listen to our muslims brothers and sisters. My opinion on this is that this is not a correct analysis. Gambling cannot be used in Bitcoin and Bitcoin is obviously not gambling. It does not logically follow that since there is uncertainty in Bitcoin, it is already gambling. If that is how you understand it, then everything in life is a gamble because everything is pretty much uncertain in this world. Well, to a certain extent, you are correct because this world is really full of uncertainty and it takes courage to risk and gamble. But that is not the "fatwa" means.
As a Muslim, as long as the way I use does not violate my religious rules, then I am very confident with what I do. Cryptocurrency is something new, a lot of opinions about this, I am referring that once Rasulullah also allowed the existence of currency trading. So, it will not be a sin as long as it does not violate trade in religion.
