It's not very evident to me why that form of gambling is more attractive to the average person than wagering on football teams or trading stocks.

Somebody might know better than me but based on everything Ive observed with the crypto bros at my job (and they are always men for some reason) it seems like the outward behavior might literally meet most if not all of the medical criteria for addiction?
