Listen to me.
Look I know we are a free community, but come on don't you think the price has become so volatile during the past few months just because people started using it as a form of investment. I've seen people buy in low, in hopes of selling it at high, and that's basically pump and dump.
Bitcoin wasn't created to make us rich over night but was created so we could have control over our money and not the bankers. It was created so we could be free, so there won't be any borders telling us we are different from them so we can't trade with them. To be united, but all I see are people only talking about how much profit they've made, not about how it can help people that don't have access to banks(they do but it's a minority).
We live in a society where we take everything for granted, just like we've taken Bitcoin for granted. We don't deserve it. The ones that deserve it don't have access to it.
At the end of the day we become savages and only think about the profit not the good that it can do for us, instead of making us rich.
Yes, I was introduced to it because of the investment, but I was a fool at that time, I couldn't see the bigger picture.
We are a community created for the people, by the people.
(P.S. If you don't see Bitcoin as investment, then be proud of it, and hope it can help us be united, for it's all that we have left against them)
This is true and all, but aren't we all here profitting from bitcoib as an investment? Let's be real here. We are all aware that bitcoin is being used as a way to earn profits but so far it's the only thing this coin is capable of doing. Sure there are some big establishments that allows the use of bitcoins for transactions but they dissallow shortly after because of how unsta le of a crypto bitcoin is. If someday cryptocurrencies will become stable, then I guess it's time to throw investment in the garbage and use it as a transaction tool but for the meantime, let's support bitcoin for whatever it is.
