If gambling is a way for a person to relax and get adrenaline, he will play even after getting a big win (at the risk of losing everything). Gambling is like a drug, it sucks you in so much that it is hard to get out of its nets. So - it all depends on what originally led to gambling

I agree, gambling is the same as people who are exposed to drugs, unable to think clearly to determine whether this is good or not because it has become a bill that must be done.
But it all starts with whether gambling is just to relieve fatigue and not to make a profit or is the intention of gambling to make a profit. Of course, these are two different things, so those who want to relax from fatigue can stop, but those who are looking for profit will not be able to stop, because when gambling, no one wins.

One way to select your next crypto investment is to look at the current market capitalization. This will not only show which cryptos are ranked the highest right now but also the curve of their value. Be aware of events around the world that affect the prices of cryptocurrencies.

The simple way to do is  check top 10 in coinmarketcap. These coins would be safer for investment compared to others. One can also research on his own on various coins before going for investment. But be careful in investing new coins.

There are those who really want to analyze first before making their choice, but if there are those who don't want to analyze, they can and there are facilities at CMC for only the best ranking to be selected, especially those with potential. Ultimately, it's up to us to decide where we want to place our funds, but I agree with not prioritizing new coins because they haven't been tested compared to existing potential coins.

If we look at the ATH before the halving, it is certainly beyond predictions, so there could be a fantastic increase, but what is the ATH for both? It is possible that what you said could reach $150K is certainly something that is not impossible to happen. Everything will be determined at the end of this year. How much Bitcoin can reach. If it gets higher, then the chance will happen.
With the increase in bitcoin, it is certain that altcoins will also be affected and will experience the same thing. Hopefully, they can make ATH twice as well.

Everyone's hope is that Bitcoin can reach a very expensive price, but we have to know that all these plans must get support from many parties, for example whales, investors and traders must simultaneously buy very large amounts of Bitcoin and without anyone selling it until price $150k then it will be achieved easily.

Everyone also thinks, as you said, that Bitcoin will be able to reach its highest price next year [renewable ATH] because this moment is much awaited.
But it's still too early because the halving of anything has just passed and anything could happen in the next few months of this year. It is clear that Bitcoin continues to trade well and everyone does so, not just certain groups, so it is likely that it will increase or be corrected depending on each transaction that occurs. So we remain patient waiting for the stages that Bitcoin will go through.

Yes, experience will make us have the knowledge and expertise in carrying out analysis. Because in determining whether we will invest in new coins or old coins. Because this is related to risks and opportunities for profit, I prefer to invest in old coins such as bitcoin, ethereum, BNB.

By continuing to read and practice literacy, your knowledge will automatically increase, and you will be able to analyze well. Then you will be able to determine which direction to take for investment, in old coins or in new coins with all the possibilities that will happen.
To be safer, of course, I agree with you, it's better to invest in old coins which certainly have potential [bitcoin, ethereum, BNB, SOL etc.]. But that doesn't mean that new coins aren't good. As long as you analyze them well, you might ultimately decide to invest in new coins.

Yep... but we should still consider our strategy in investing, because there could be people who are interested in investing just because they see other coins experiencing drastic price increases, while the coins they bought don't... FOMO is often a trap for most Beginners and experienced people still fall into this trick.

Old coins and new coins can each be maximized, and I'm sure everyone has their best shot at choosing the coin that suits their own needs. Returning again to diverse human tastes, of course each person's choice of coins also varies.

For this reason, avoid things that are based on seeing something at the moment when it increases but not analyzing properly what will happen later, especially on the next journey, because the journey is still long and not just a moment.
Obviously, old coins with potential are unavoidable as an option, but it's not like there aren't new coins that could also be good if you want to do the analysis first. So far, if you don't want to be down and lazy about analysis, then old and potential coins will certainly be the main choice and cannot be avoided.
Agree, that everything is returned to the individual to determine whether he has the right to do so.

Yes I am now trying to get out of the meme coin zone and maybe in the future I will focus on Ethereum and Solana but have to wait for the right time to buy it, maybe if Bitcoin drops to $50k I will start buying Ethereum in installments.

The path you choose must be taken immediately because in a few moments Ethereum will have good news from the SEC which is likely to cause the price of Ethereum on the market to increase very sharply. Maybe you can buy Ethereum using the DCA method which I think is safer.

Yes, indeed, if there are no further obstacles, this May, an announcement will be made and, in my opinion, it is possible that ethereum will increase the same as when it was implemented on bitcoin. The DCA scheme will indeed be a more promising alternative in finding solutions for investment, but waiting in the hope that there will be a correction first is just as good.

Any investment is freedom, but you shouldn’t forget that (what kind of freedom?) if for this you have to work for decades and buy Bitcoin, then I don’t think that this is the right decision, I think that if you have little money, then you only need to invest in your training and not in Bitcoin, investing in Bitcoin is better left to people who are already firmly on their own two feet.

Anyone can invest in Bitcoin if they have the capital to do so, if they want to learn and try investing with capital from bounties and airdrops, that is also a good step. and freedom also does not mean for those who can stand strong on their own, but those who want to be better for their economy can also invest here

There is no discrimination in being able to invest in Bitcoin. Anyone who has more funds can do that if they are interested, so there are no restrictions for certain people.
I agree that if you really want to learn how to make initial investments, it can be from capital obtained from airdrops or bounties, so that there is no fear of losing, because the capital comes from prize money.
Indeed, it would be better if you invest using funds that are not connected to your daily needs, aka extra funds, not precisely the funds needed for your needs. It will be detrimental if you make a mistake in your analysis.

there are many altcoins that I have from previous bounties, some are valuable and some are classic coins in my wallet,
I bought the top 5 altcoins last November to increase my load towards the halving later, hopefully the coins I bought will provide multiple profits in the future

It's very good to be able to hold altcoins from bounty results because usually many of them are no longer valuable for a long time because everyone is competing to sell them, but there must be good ones, of course, so you hold them for now.
Of course, it would be very wise for you to do so by adding to the coffers you have with other altcoins because the situation is very profitable because the halving has passed. Just wait for the next bullish season, so your savings can increase.

Bad experience with Metamask, in the process of sending money from my wallet to another, the funds slipped into an unknown wallet, is this due to a lack of security because I checked the correctness of the address several times. I don't use Metamask even though it is very popular in the crypto world, but less popular and I've been using it for 2 months now and I don't have any ambiguities that would pop up in the notification or similar. You should pay attention to whom it is sent to and to whom your wallet address will be visible these days.

Have you checked where the problem comes from I'm still using Metamask and I have no problem sending addresses to other addresses and also checked it several times and checked on Explorer after sending the funds, Metamask still works fine it is the user' negligence that may have caused it

This is a serious case if you are 100% sure the address was correct then it's landed on another address you should escalate it on Metamask to warn others but you have to first send proof that it did happen.

Same with me, until now, I still use Metamask because of the convenience found there and there are never any difficulties or errors that can occur because we can control, again when sending. Especially for users who we often send to. We can automatically write down their names and don't need to repeat their wallet numbers. Sorry if I misinterpreted, it's possible that you entered the wrong number or copied and pasted incorrectly, so it wasn't sent correctly.
I agree, if this really happened because it was a metamask error and not because of a wrong address, of course, it would be very worrying about metamask users.
