Anybody who "invests" in anything, whether that be putting money into stocks, shares, commodities, currencies, companies, businesses and all the rest of it, they are putting money into these things with absolutely no guarantee of profit, so obviously all of these people are gamblers, as anybody who puts money into something without knowing if they will get a profit or loss are gamblers. These people like to dress themselves up as "investors" and all the rest of it, but these "investors" are no different to sports betting gamblers, in that sports betting gamblers put money on bets and don't know if they will make a profit or not, and the exact same is true for anybody who puts their money into anything like stocks or currencies etc, in that they put money in, and they very simply do not know if they will make a profit or a loss.
So obviously you putting your money into Bitcoin is nothing else but an out and out gamble as you have absolutely no guarantee of whether you will make a profit or a loss, and if you're happy gambling your money on the price of Bitcoin, then more fool you.
