I don’t think the gambling one’s a bubble.

Yeah, there is, and always has been, demand for gambling, and unlike crypto ~~gambling~~ speculation money leaves the system at just about the same rate it enters so there is no inflation.

Lmao, imagine calling gambling a bubble, that bubble has been around as long as humanity and hasn’t burst yet

(Don’t @ me if we found Australopithecus fossils with dice made of animal bones)
