Cryptocurrency and Gambling
About
In this presentation, Paul Delfabbro will discuss the growth of cryptocurrency markets and the risks that these highly speculative investments can pose for the community. Although Bitcoin is now considered an established and lucrative long-term investment, most other cryptocurrencies are risky.Investment in these assets can often be very similar to a form of gambling and can result in significant losses and harm to individuals and their families. Only a minority of investors tend to make significant gains. Paul will discuss the known links to gambling activities, the role of blockchain technology in the increasing monetisation of gaming, the role of social media, and the many scams and pitfalls that are often unknown to new investors in these markets. The implications of these developments for policy, consumer protection and treatment services will be discussed.
