If you're not thinking about Bitcoin for the long term, you're in the wrong place.

Is ever-concentrating mining power problem solved?

yes, it is. But not in bitcoin. The centralisation is inforced by the inflation.

Inflation = centralisation

i do believe bitcoin is also longterm going nowhere because of the inflation-mistake
Would it not have been inflationcoin it would have decentral network and miners race wouldn't have been so strong and price more stable and we would still be in the goldrush-times and much more adoption.

Well, people hang on to bitcoin because first mover and no understanding of the outlined above.

blockchain size is worked on serveral solutions while the bitcoiners want sidechains and bloat the thing even more (wrong direction developement some alts make the correct developement there).

Now ripple even comes close in marketcap. I don't know if bitcoin will make it but am sure some other coin(s) will.

I think bitcoin was a good start but now that it is going down: crypto should not die because bitcoin can't hold value (by design)

It's time to be honest with ourselves and admit: bitcoin reward schedule fucks it up completely.

Why adopt NOW something that is CURRENTLY broken/doesn't really have a plan for the long term?

Because it's not broken?

yes, it is broken. Next panicsell is final nail in the coffin.

Yeah yeah yeah. What inflation problem? Bitcoin has exponentially decreasing inflation.

The reason you are here bashing bitcoin is because you want to buy some.
