“I just can’t buy Bitcoin—it feels like…gambling.” I hear this too often among my friends. Sure, it feels risky. But here’s the thing: real gambling is when the house always wins. Holding cash? That’s gambling—guaranteed to lose. Bitcoin? Not easy, not safe but the odds aren’t stacked against you. In fact, if you understand what you’re doing, it’s one of the few positive EV high-skill, high-reward games left. So yeah, it can feel like gambling. But only because you’ve been playing rigged games your whole life. The real question is: do you want to keep losing safely, or learn to win smart?
