The number one question I receive by friends after “What is Bitcoin?” is "What can I do with it?"

A few teams are working on a protocol that would add many innovative capabilities for Bitcoin users. It’s a decentralized sidechain called Echo, that aims to develop a suite of financial mechanisms and instruments.

We want to facilitate the development of applications that would make your lives as Bitcoiners more convenient. We will be hosting a hackathon soon with a few other teams in the industry to reward programmers and entrepreneurs with making the services that society actually demands. What application or service would be a value addition for you right now?

The thing that I most like about crypto is being able to feed my family in my home country. They don't need to understand how it works, I just deposit to my father's bank account and he's happy about the quickness of it. Emergencies and such I always help and I know they appreciate my efforts, I don't know how I'd be able to support people in Venezuela otherwise (currently Western union and similar "worldwide services" don't work with Venezuelan bolivars) so I'm thankful to bitcoin for existing.

for people who are still first entering the world of crypto, indeed do not want to know how the coin works and the technology that is in it. You are right, that the most important thing is to deposit, invest, then make a profit. it will be more important because that is the main purpose of crypto in this online investment world. but along with the development of technology, such development is very important for the progress of crypto, because it must always follow the development of technology and also trends so that crypto is not quickly left behind.
