But for the untrained eye, it\u2019s only a gamble. Crypto trading and gambling share some similarities, but they\u2019re only apparent, as you\u2019ll discover by reading our article.<\/p>\n<p>First, let\u2019s take a look at the reasons behind this analogy.<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Taking_a_chance_in_crypto_trading_vs_gambling\"><\/span>Taking a chance in crypto trading vs gambling<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<h2><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-4278 aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/icoholder.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/05\/Screenshot_233.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"613\" height=\"461\" srcset=\"https:\/\/icoholder.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/05\/Screenshot_233.png 613w, https:\/\/icoholder.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/05\/Screenshot_233-300x226.png 300w, https:\/\/icoholder.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/05\/Screenshot_233-80x60.png 80w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 613px) 100vw, 613px\" \/><\/h2>\n<p>The main resemblance of gambling and trading crypto is that they are speculation-driven enterprises. In other words, they imply trying to figure out and profit from what may happen in the future. Any trade represents a bet on the relevant crypto going up and its success depends on the research backing it.<\/p>\n<p>So, crypto trading could hardly be associated with slot gambling, due to the purely random nature of the latter. However, you could liken it to skill-based games like poker or blackjack. Here, the ability to make choices without having all the data at hand is key.<\/p>\n<p>An in-depth <a href=\"https:\/\/casinobonusca.com\/blog\/is-trading-a-form-of-gambling-key-similarities-and-differences\/\">comparative analysis<\/a> singles out four key similarities between gambling and crypto trading:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Exposure to uncertainty<\/li>\n<li>Risking money<\/li>\n<li>The hope of making a quick buck<\/li>\n<li>The application of strategies and use of statistics<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>But investing in a volatile new coin is not entirely the same as going all-in on roulette or blackjack. A gambler essentially operates in a centralised environment, while crypto trading happens in a decentralised monetary system.<\/p>\n<p data-pm-slice=\"1 1 []\">In other words, the casino may directly affect the gambler\u2019s chances, while the trader\u2019s success largely depends on their own wit and the market movements beyond anyone\u2019s control.<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Attaining_the_traders_edge\"><\/span>Attaining the trader\u2019s edge<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-4279 aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/icoholder.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/05\/Screenshot_234.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"610\" height=\"404\" srcset=\"https:\/\/icoholder.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/05\/Screenshot_234.png 610w, https:\/\/icoholder.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/05\/Screenshot_234-300x199.png 300w, https:\/\/icoholder.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/05\/Screenshot_234-91x60.png 91w, https:\/\/icoholder.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/05\/Screenshot_234-120x80.png 120w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 610px) 100vw, 610px\" \/><\/p>\n<p data-pm-slice=\"1 1 []\">The risk intrinsic to cryptos can, at least in theory, be averted to some degree by opting for stable coins and carefully managing your budget. Your trader edge depends on how well you devise your strategy to account both for the coins\u2019 relevance and your financial capacity, within the framework of a decentralised monetary system. It also relies on your discipline.<\/p>\n<p>Nobody can teach you a fail-proof way to determine cryptos\u2019 stability, because that depends on an ever-changing factor: its real-world utility. Assessing this variable can be a little tricky, and if you\u2019re not up for analysing company fundamentals, crunching numbers and learning from past mistakes, you won\u2019t be able to optimise your plan accordingly.<\/p>\n<p>In practice, traders who don\u2019t take real-life relevance into account indeed take a gamble. Choosing where to invest only after studying a coin\u2019s price graph or social media trends won\u2019t take you very far away.<\/p>\n<p data-pm-slice=\"1 1 []\">But in an industry so open-ended, traders must acquire the edge through trial and error. Crypto traders face a paradox. They must minimise risk by conducting careful research and making thoughtful investment choices, but they could find any choice wrong the next minute.<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Gambling_and_short-term_speculation\"><\/span>Gambling and short-term speculation<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>You probably start to see there are fundamental differences between betting and trading. The first that comes to mind is that trading cryptocurrencies is not a casual short-term game, but a process of long-term investment.<\/p>\n<p>Granted, gambling professionals may consider themselves as investors with a positive ROI. But those who can make a living playing poker, blackjack are the exception, not the rule.<\/p>\n<p>Casinos have a built-in edge over players that will undoubtedly keep unnerving the great majority of them. Even if you manage to bypass the house edge once or twice, the casino runs the show and won\u2019t give in that easily.<\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Casinos_banning_pro-players\"><\/span>Casinos banning pro-players<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p>Let\u2019s take blackjack for instance. A sound strategy drops the house edge to as low as 1%, making it a somewhat risky game for operators. History has proven it to be so. Several profit-minded gamblers have managed to crack the game\u2019s code through the mathematics of<a href=\"https:\/\/icoholder.com\/blog\/crypto-trading-mindset-development-master-your-strategy\/\"> card counting.<\/a><\/p>\n<p>Australian gambler Zeljko Ranogajec quit his job to earn exponentially more playing the game. And the MIT Blackjack Team, famously depicted in the movie \u201821\u2019, is estimated to have won more than $50 million with a similar counting method.<\/p>\n<p>But casinos fought back and put their winning streaks to an end. Both Ranogajec and some members of the MIT team got banned, and card counting is now considered cheating.<\/p>\n<p>That\u2019s a clear representation of the top-down nature of gambling. Players try to win while operating in a closed environment against the ones who make the rules and have the last say.<\/p>\n<p>Comparatively, the crypto market cannot be reduced to this dynamic, since it is always subject to external, real-world, influences. Moreover, for traders who adopt a long-term outlook, it\u2019s never about winning or losing in the now. They\u2019re not looking to hit a once-in-a-lifetime jackpot, but access a form of steady income.<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Trading_crypto_investment_or_gamble\"><\/span>Trading crypto: investment or gamble?<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-4280 aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/icoholder.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/05\/Screenshot_235.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"614\" height=\"400\" srcset=\"https:\/\/icoholder.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/05\/Screenshot_235.png 614w, https:\/\/icoholder.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/05\/Screenshot_235-300x195.png 300w, https:\/\/icoholder.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/05\/Screenshot_235-92x60.png 92w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 614px) 100vw, 614px\" \/><\/p>\n<p>Generally, people tend to consider trading as a form of gambling, but that\u2019s understandable given that the subject is not an integral part of the financial education most of them get.<\/p>\n<p>But digital currencies have divided even the world\u2019s rich, from whom we\u2019d expect to show more openness toward such a financial revolution.<\/p>\n<p>While the younger tend to advocate for digital currencies, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.businessinsider.com\/how-billionaire-investors-feel-about-bitcoin-elon-musk-warren-buffett-2020-12\">billionaires<\/a> like Warren Buffet and Mark Cuban express doubts regarding their safety as investment options. Elon Musk has expressed mixed feelings about it as well, although he praised Bitcoin\u2019s structure as \u2018brilliant\u2019.<\/p>\n<p data-pm-slice=\"1 1 []\">Based on what we\u2019ve presented so far, it should be clear that digital investments only resemble gambling on the surface, as market movements heavily influence them.<\/p>\n<p>Here\u2019s another way to put it. Whether crypto trading is more like investing or gambling depends on the trader\u2019s ways of conducting their business. In that vein, you could say that a crypto trader is more of a gambler when they:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Do not have a long-term strategy<\/li>\n<li>Dream of becoming rich overnight<\/li>\n<li>Treat each trade as their last<\/li>\n<li>Do not prepare for worst-case scenarios<\/li>\n<li>Do not perform extensive research prior to investing<\/li>\n<li>Only follow \u2018hot\u2019 coins spoken of in the media<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>Flip that around and you\u2019ll get an image of what a proper trader should look like.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Crypto trading is fundamental to the blockchain-triggered financial revolution we\u2019re living through.
