the question you asked is actually already in the source link, it just takes a little time to understand.
and this is according to my version if both have risks it's just that these risks are different. for gambling the risk of losing all the money faster or at the same time losing at gambling but in crypto investment we don't immediately lose all the value of money, especially in bitcoin assets.
maybe a lot of people think about this problem and think if the two are almost similar but for me it's not. let's take a simple example when we get into gambling with a $10 budget betting on sports or other types of bets. but when the budget is used as an investment it will not disappear all at once because the price of bitcoin does not immediately fall to $10 when the price dump we can still sell it even though we lose $5.
furthermore, we cannot compare the number of population of bitcoin or crypto investors with gamblers around the world because surely the number of gamblers will be higher and will continue to increase after the slot game hype becomes the current trend and gambling has also been around for a long time before crypto was released.
so it's natural that the number of gamblers is greater than investor and not because the investment risk is much higher than gambling but it's just that people critical mind nowadays think about instant results and entertainment from gambling.
Gamblers are definitely a higher number because it has been around for far longer than what people have seen bitcoin for. I mean even back in roman empire there were gambling places, which means that people gambled, that is 2000+ years ago, and of course gambling is more known like that.
This doesn't mean that we are going to always have this, bitcoin may end up passing gambling one day in the future, but that doesn't mean that we are going to end up with a result where it is going to be passing it quickly. So, we need to accept the fact that there are more gamblers right now, and just use that for our advantage making sure that they know gambling with bitcoin is far more easier and get them into the crypto world that way.
Word. I thought about how common gaming used to be. For millennia, it's been a pastime. The roulette wheel still hypnotizes people worldwide. What's crypto? Baby and learning to walk. Change it up? Bitcoin isn't like gaming. Blend them. Making Bitcoin gambling easy could introduce millions to crypto. It's worth investigating. Slow down! Don't overdo it. Crypto is hazardous. We don't want people to lose money on lousy rolls and blame Bitcoin. Let's go slow. Share knowledge and risks.
