I think it would behoove you to maybe do some research or understand what you're criticizing before dismissing it outright.

Earning interest on capital you are willing to put at risk is no different than investing in a business. The concept of loans and return on investment will not magically disappear if Bitcoin becomes a standard.

My definition is as follows,

Gambling has a negative expected value. You know how casinos make money.

Investing has a positive expected value. If the stock price is lower than the corporate value, you invest and wait. Of course, it is possible to miscalculate the expected value due to information asymmetry. That's risk.

Gambling is not risk, it's gambling.

Right, like not actually doing your research on something before reaching a conclusion 😏
