I know a lot of people have different reason why the love and embrace bitcoin.
For me the decentralized nature of bitcoin and the thought of being able to send coins to anybody in any part of the word, no third party, no regulation(specific amount), no bullshit is mind blowing.
Seriously, what impresses me about bitcoin it is so volatile and yet it never dies. We all have experienced the time when its value was so low, and then it bounced back to become so high. Its amazing how an online currency regain its value despite the fact that it has been down already. Still, I am thankful to bitcoin.
