Addiction is a mental stage where an individual can not control his feelings for something be they positive or negative, and for anyone to be called a gambling addict means such a person has an uncontrollable urge to gamble and seeking medical help is the best step to curing addiction, and anyone can get addicted both the vulnerable and those that have excess cash in possession.
I don't agree to the assumption of some people who say that because of the availability of online cryptocurrency gambling sites is the reason for increasing gambling addiction, I don't think that accusation is true and we can prove it if we want to.
I think that the cryptocurrency component is not connected with the growth of problem gamblers at all. The fact is that the emergence of online casinos has really created more addicted people in the world, because now entering a casino has become a matter of a couple of clicks. But I am sure that almost everyone uses card payments, and only cryptocurrency lovers use cryptocurrency payments. So the growth is connected with online casinos and not with cryptocurrencies or blockchain.
