Addiction 3: FOMO – The Driving Force Behind Crypto Trading?

In the third episode of Addiction: An Hour With Auer, we meet Paul Delfabbro, a Professor of Psychology at the University of Adelaide, to discuss the complex relationship between cryptocurrency trading and gambling. Paul shares insights on the psychological factors influencing crypto traders, including the role of FOMO (Fear of Missing Out) and the socio-demographic profile of those involved in crypto trading. The conversation also explores the emerging field of Web3 gaming, the rise of crypto casinos, and the prevalence of problem gambling in Australia. Additionally, Paul delves into the impact of conspiracy theories on gambling psychology and the cognitive biases that affect decision-making in both gambling and crypto trading.

Choice quotes:

  • "FOMO plays a crucial role in crypto trading behaviour."
  • "Australia has one of the highest rates of gambling expenditure per capita."
