How do you combat the urge to gamble with your cryptocurrency?
Still boils down on your self control. I mean that mentally, it's really hard to see some crypto in your wallet and the urge to deposit in some gambling sites and play and bet on your favourite sports with good odds, play dice or slots machine. However, if you have the discipline and look at the bigger picture that your crypto will multiple overtime, then probably that itch will probably subside and you will have control of your greed, just saying
Do not overestimate the will power
The sad truth is, it doesn't boil down to self-control or self-discipline. It can help you from doing something bad once or twice, but if your urge is lasting and strong enough at that, sooner or later you will give in. Moreover, not giving in while failing to deal with your inner demons effectively to get rid of them altogether (if you need to) can be as damaging, if not more. When you have to resist a very strong desire and that goes on for long enough, it may drive you mad and you may in fact end up in a psychiatric ward with a psychosis or something much worse
