Re: They want you to panic :->

I know is manipulation about how dropping price bitcoin or altcoin, but I am still little worried if many people keep sell their coin, I know they have panic to sell coin and make price more drop, just few people know is bad situation to make altcoin or bitcoin go down to drop price.

People panic selling is part of the manipulation scheme, thats what they love buying Bitcoin or altcoin at a panic price. Accumulating all Coins from weak hands and then price will move fast. I agree with OP, it happens always in real life, online mmorpg games and stock market. Patience is the key to counter these manipulations if you want not to lose.

I think I know they are manipulating it, but it's hard to get yourself together and keep hodling.
However, when people post something like this, it really helps overcome panic attack.

Re: Bitcoin can be a national treasure.

Bitcoin is truly a treasure for someone who achieved even a single piece of it. Its value transcends that of a precious gold dust, proven that most people spend most of their time and effort to gain one bitcoin atleast. One can say that a bitcoin can replace everything; from salary, currency and that of a treasure. A country with its citizen having much reserve of bitcoins can be a powerful economic advantage.

Can we consider bitcoins as national treasure of a country comsidering its economic significance?


Bitcoin doesn't belong to any one nation so it can never be a "national" treasure.

Right. It's an INTERnational treasure because its price doesn't vary by country. Its price is all the same around the globe. But it IS a treasure and it will soon change a lot in this world Wink

Re: Are there regulatory bodies for the crypto space?

It seems to me that crypto space is the area of responsibility of certain government agencies, including regulatory and law-enforcement bodies. They will probably soon designate a special body to be focused on crypto space both in every country and globally.

Re: EDUCATING PEOPLE ABOUT CRYPTOCURRENCY

Education in cryptocurrency and, more importantly, the underlying technology, blockchain is about to become a must if you want to be a part of the society. Some governments have started clearly moving in that direction.
I, for one, was quite surprised to learn that a government could be that interested in this technology that it would become its backer. Just think about esrI hope you find it useful Wink

Re: Bitcoin, blockchain, technology that does miracles

This must be said that many illegal jobs which are crimes in most of the world has become easy to do because of Bitcoin, in fact
This is one of the disadvantages of this electronic currency, another disadvantage is the fact that you or anyone else can do
Money laundering without fearing of the law, you can blackmail and no one can follow your transactions back to you.

It's a bit of a misconception that Bitcoin is used for illegal activities. It used to be that way in the early days and on the dark web but things have changed now. You see more money laundering from real estate than you do from Bitcoin.

I happen to agree here. Moreover, Bitcoin, due to its underlying technology, i.e. blockchain, is quite risky for illegal activities since the entire system is a digital ledger, i.e. a registry of all transactions between all parties and the ledger just cannot be changed or deleted, which means every transaction is potentially traceable and you just cannot hide because of it. So, taking into account what I've said, I believe using Bitcoin for illegal activities sounds a little absurd.

Taking into account that Blockchain and Bitcoin, as a part of Blockchain, are gaining popularity despite all speculations, I plan on saving some bitcoins for a rainy day and allocating a part of coins for trading. Wink

Re: Everyone is free to use Bitcoin as they want
by

There's an ongoing debate in and outside of Bitcoin community regarding the economic nature of Bitcoin: is it a currency or an asset, a store of value, settlement layer and so on. The situation with ETF's also sparked some debates, as some argue that ETF's are bad and Bitcoin should stick to its cypherpunk roots and ignore the mainstream.

I think all sides kinda miss the point of Bitcoin. Bitcoin was created so people can send coins directly to others, without any mandatory middleman. Therefore, every use case is as legit as any other use case, it doesn't violate the freedom of any other user of the network. It doesn't even matter if Satoshi wanted Bitcoin to be a decentralized currency that will kill banks, because one of the principles of Bitcoin is censorship resistance, so if some people want to use centralized services, want regulated environments, speculation and so on, it's their right. All those things have no effect on people who want to use Bitcoin as an alternative currency.

So, I think there is no single answer to whether Bitcoin is an asset or a currency, everyone decides for themselves, because freedom is the ultimate point of Bitcoin.

I just don't understand what's the use of having a debate regarding the economic nature of Bitcoin? I believe, the best thing about Btc is your freedom, so you are free to use Bitcoin as you want. That's the point Wink

Re: Is taxation theft?

Whether a theft or not, we can only judge on a case-by-case basis. Because it first emerged with a basic idea of keeping things in order. Unfortunately, some politicians seem to ruin that idea because they are corrupt, but this doesn't make it a "theft," does it? Wink

Re: The future of CryptoCurrencies

....Does anyone believe that Bitcoin will be traded on a massive level alongside other currencies like the Euro, U.S. Dollar, etc? If this happens than Bitcoin could likely become the worlds largest digital currency...

Maybe somewhere in the distant future.... I don't believe it is possible in the near future...

Electric cars are not easy to discuss because on the one hand they look a lot cleaner, but in reality their maintenance turns out to damage nature.

Depends on what your goal is. If you want to be on the safe side and stay in the black, day trade might not be good for you. But if you want to make bigger profit, then you might like to consider day trade as opposed to hodl.

I don't think it's time to panic, but I don't see why the bearish trend should be over either now because there aren't any preconditions for recovery, IMHO.
