I realize this question was probably raised before, but I believe that the answers might be changing with time, because bitcointalk community grows and because the interests and needs of people can become different in years. I recall a video on addiction that explained that people mainly become addicted because of feeling sad and lonely. When I made a thread about whether gamblers think that gambling addiction has the same reason, the answers differed a lot. Now I am curious what kind of people are gambling here. Are they mainly looking for money, excitement, socialization? Please vote and leave a comment below in case you want to add something to your answer.

I will not deceive anyone, I came here primarily to earn money on cryptocurrencies. I had experience in trading on stock exchanges, so I really enjoyed trading on cryptocurrency exchanges.
Since then, cryptocurrencies have become gambling for me.

And at least in trading, you know the odds and you can mitigate the risk, compare to gambling that you don't have control over it unless you're lucky that day and exited when you're you still have your winnings. For me though, i learn to control and just enjoy the game, if I don't win so be it, I'm no longer the gambler that chases my losses on the next day. If I'm not lucky this day then maybe next week or next month, just saying.

The fact of the matter is, I like it in cryptocurrencies, I get emotions from trading like gambling, but at the same time the risks of losing my money are much lower.
And I wish you good luck.
