All vices, including gambling, are like playing with fire... If you are not careful, you can get into all kinds of trouble.
so you’re telling us that gambling is a vice, which by definition means a bad habit or something immoral.
I can’t really agree with that, yes, I recognize the risks of gambling, but I don’t see it as a vice. If it truly was, then governments wouldn’t even allow or regulate it since it would be considered harmful by default.

For me, it’s not gambling that should be blamed when people run into financial problems but it’s the gambler themselves.
At the end of the day, it’s their responsibility to understand and manage the risks.

I think you should not take the game too seriously. When your attitude is more relaxed and there’s no tension or heavy sense of responsibility, the game goes by without any major unpleasantness. As for games where the bets are in bitcoin it’s the same game, just with a different currency. I don’t see any difference, you are still playing with an amount you can afford to lose.
