At hindsight, people may be confused about the distinction between hodling and gambling, although they are different in nature. The results may be the same but in hodling, the risk is relatively lower compared to gambling. Not to mention, the turnover of resources is faster in gambling which has the potential of either making or breaking your whole investment.

As a general rule, hodling may be profitable depending on the amount of your capital and the amount that you are willing to risk. There are also factors that can be considered to decrease the chances of losing your money. But in gambling, relying on such luck and odds may be your only scapegoat. If the odds are against you, no matter how much you deposit, then you are really bound to lose.

good analogy about the major difference of gambling and hodling. in hodling, you can prolong the outcome of your decision but in gambling, you can see the results of your decision much much faster. so you know where your money is heading in gambling.
but yeah the end results might be the same but somewhere in between the process, the person have different approach in dealing these 2 = gambling and hodling. hodling might be considered as long process of gambling???
