Gamblers have their eyes on cryptocurrencies and are playing through it as payment method in gambling which may benefit them that is why cryptocurrencies are using on large scale.
I think its more so due to the anonymity provided by crypto. Most gamblers are paranoid about someone close finding out about their vices and scolding them for that. Its because they are not willing to disclose their bad habits and the fear that it would affect their family in a bad way.
I think that cryptocurrencies are valuable and we should not lose in gambling because it is a digital currency using for business and when we enter it into gambling then it does not remain business.
Correct and I feel one should not waste their money at all. After all these coins are valuable for future rise in market price and thus the holding value of them is immense. Why waste them by gambling when you can reap profits in both short term and long term?
