I joined up over here in 2012-13. At the time it seemed like a way to make a quick buck. Overtime as i read about it more and more, i became interested in the freedom it provides. As time has went on however, my interest and belief in bitcoin have waned. I won't get into the details of why, but i'm wondering what your honest opinion of bitcoin is, with a simple vote, and possibly an explanation.
I joined about the same time. At the time I was very interested in Bitcoin from a technical point of view, and I'm still interested just as much. Starting with the first bubble of 2013 (i.e. April), 90%+ of the people seemingly "interested" in Bitcoin were just circle jerking in their greed.
Don't get me wrong: I'm cool with greed, but people that were just hanging around because,
you know, get rich quick 'n all, they bring nothing, nada, zip, nil to the community. Go watch your ticker, feed another trollbox and stop making noise.
And I won't even get into details about the horrible shitcoin spree all over the place at the same time.
Then it started deflating, and my hopes were that it would weed out the noise (on this forum and in general).
I don't know if it actually happened. At least the developments on max block size extensions are interesting to follow.
I have never believed into the bitcoin becuase i know that at the end of the bitcoin it will be just a scamm and the one who is making th ebitcoins is earning that much
