We can only imagine how long Bitcoin can be around because it is very difficult to imagine but we can give it a try.
Right now, Bitcoin is only 15 years old after it was invented. In 15 years, Bitcoin has achieved a price gain from a few cents when it started to 107k USD right now. It’s a really big price increase and because Bitcoin is very limited, it is likely to increase in price further.
Bitcoin has achieved for many people to own it, do transactions every day and appreciate it as a store of value, like it is known from Gold currently. Bitcoin is getting more and more accepted as a reliable store of value and it’s very important for Bitcoin to be in a good position to be an attractive store of value.
Many points are in favor of Bitcoin to be a good and reliable store of value even right now and it will get better over time anyways.
Just imagine when Bitcoin is 150 years old, where its price will be and how many people will possess any Bitcoin.
We are still very early!

Scammers, hackers and criminals are a big issue in crypto and every day, we can have bad luck to be affected.
Many people are getting scammed daily.
Even, if you are aware of scammers and you don’t fall for any scam, it is still possible to be targeted by hackers.
Because hackers are knowing very well about malicious code and some sites are very risky because of download and even when you don’t know it, it can be a dangerous situation for your device.
Avoid risky sites and downloads
A big trap are malicious sites and downloads. Hackers and criminals like such risky sites and malicious downloads to infect our device and if it’s successfull we will suffer a lot.
Conclusion: avoid risky sites and avoid downloads.
It will improve our safety from hackers and criminals.
However, even avoiding risky sites and downloads is sometimes not enough because hackers are really educated to target someone.
Avoid Darknet sites
An important point is to avoid Darknet sites, where many hackers and criminals are active. Not necessarily scammers but mainly hackers and criminals.
Because Darknet is a space, where criminal business goes unnoticed. We need to be very carful to avoid it because of malware link, hack and criminals.
Our best proceed is to avoid any Darknet sites enitrely and if we avoid it, we won’t get any malicious malware on our device or similar.
Luckily, Darknet is very difficult to reach and you need certains programs for it.
Do not legitimize scammers, hackers and criminals
It is always easy to let scammers escape from it, if we are not affected. But once we are affected, it is really a big issue. And Crypto is suffering from a lot from criminal activites, no matter if on Telegram, on lots of malicious download sites, from fraud altcoins, from malware link, from exchange hack or even here on Bitcointalk.
Unfortunately, hacks or criminal activity is downplayed often. It should not be downplayed because it’s massively harmful. No one needs scammers, hackers and criminals.
We need to call out malicious people and criminal activities, not downplay it. We need to combat it, too.
We need to find solutions how to stop scammers, hackers and criminals
Finding solutions how to stop scammers, hackers and criminals is very important for everyone.
After more people realize how important it is to stop criminals, we need solutions to do so. Bitcointalk has a scam accusations board, where we can report scammers, create reports and distribute negative trust. Finally, after an online research, scammer’s homes can be prosecuted and scammers can be sent to prison. Because scammers, hackers and criminals need to be punished for doing massive harm.
Straight to jail.
Create awareness against scammers, hackers and criminals
We need to create awareness against scammers because everyone needs to know it is a big danger.
We need to mention it often and try to find solutions against scammers, hackers and criminals.
If scammers, hackers and criminals are not succesful, doing business will get more difficult for such shady people.
We need to be woke about it because a scammer, a criminal and a hacker can be everywhere. Crypto is heavily targeted by scammers because it’s directly rewarding any hack or criminal activity, where Crypto Currencies are obtained.

Many downloads are always offered anywhere and we all know how dangerous some internet downloads really are.
Being careful is priority number one when it comes to downloads.
Because we need to protect our device, our data stored on it, as well as our coins, of course.
Downloads are inherently risky to our devices and should be avoided as often as possible. If in doubt, don’t do any download. Especially downloads related to crypto are often a target for hackers and malicious attacks.
Downloads to all devices are risky but experts have found out which devices are more vulnerable to malicious downloads:
- Mobile devices are most vulnerable, especially from unknown fabricators or from China, which are controlled by China’s regime.
- Windows devices are vulnerable because Windows is often targeted by hackers.
- Apple’s Mac and especially Linux devices (penguin) are less vulnerable to but of course, owners should also protect Linux device or Mac from hackers and be very very careful and avoid downloads.
Keep in mind: less vulnerable still means we should protect our devices, of course. We should always avoid internet downloads.
Open source vs. closed source
Open source means, it is possible for every coder to have a look into it, if it’s coded correctly or if any malicious parts for attacks are coded into a program.
While in closed source, it is not possible for coders to review it.
Open source is very important to avoid possible malware downloads. Of course, open source isn’t a guarantee to be safe and even experienced coders can make mistakes in coding or reviewing it or if it’s offered on a scam and phishing site. Better stay away, as pointed out earlier because downloads are inherently risky.
Ask for coder’s review of GitHub
Serious coders are always publishing on GitHub or make a program’s code visible as a part of open source act.
Because we are no coders, we need to rely on educated coder reviews and opinions of experts. If in doubt, we can ask a question here on Bitcointalk and a coder will look into it.
(Almost) every coder knows about GibHub and can access it as well.
Caution is our best insurance against malicious downloads and hackers
If we don’t make a download, we can not download a virus.
It’s a very clear fact.
We should avoid any unnecessary download and if we really need one (like Electrum), we should inform us if it’s open source and if in question, avoid it.
A random download doesn’t justify to risk damaging our device, our data stored on it, as well as our coins, of course.
Make sure to protect your device from malware due to downloads.

Let's discuss crypto today and how it could help poorer countries enormously.
We all know about crypto, how it is still very new and it is very advanced by technology, but also requires a technical infrastructure which is not available in all poor countries.
It is important to have expansion of infrastructure, and when it happens, crypto is also becoming more famous in more and more poor countries.
Because crypto is global and if the standard of living in New York is very high and an apartment there is very expensive, you can get little value from it despite many cryptos. The situation is quite different in poorer countries, where it is very easy to achieve a lot with little money and therefore It's a globally averaged standard where crypto helps poorer countries disproportionately. This is really good and therefore you should promote crypto.
It can help to address inequality and improve living standards in poor countries, being of benefit to everyone.
Let’s discuss today about Crypto and how it can extremely help poor nations.

Hello, dear Satoshis
Bitcointalk has been playing a big role in Bitcoin history and I want to take part. While it is not easy to understand Bitcoin, we all have a chance to understand and collect Bitcoin.
Because Bitcoin is so difficult, we have experts to explain us details and once Bitcoin education will become more available and easier to understand for normal people, Bitcointalk seems to be a great place for a start.
It might be late and Bitcoin seems to be still very unobtainable but as always, Bitcointalk is still at it and everyone deserves his fair share in Bitcoin.
When we can obtain some Bitcoin, we also need to store it safely.
I hope, Bitcointalk will be a good provision.
