Re: What can you do with Bitcoins but can't do with Dollars?

This question is a very good one. I agree that people do not actually know what to do with their Bitcoin. We must know that Bitcoin and the blockchain technology are totally unique and special. First, as we all mentioned, profit can be made with Bitcoin. You just have to wait when the price rises and take the surplus in dollar. Bitcoin has no special exchange fee from one country to another. 1 Bitcoin is the same in America or in Africa. Additionally, it is a currency that tries to bring justice to our societies and it does not depend on politicians and on banks. I think it is very cosy to use.

I see it as a prosperous currency. A major virtual money enabling people to buy and sell worldwide. It has great advantages and we all know it. Moreover, it has the blockchain technology next to it. Additionally, I would say that people talk much about it and it is very popular. What is the future of such a popular currency? It will take the world. I mean it will be very important in virtual transactions and open roads to maybe new possibilities. We do not yet what will happen with it. I am sure of one thing: we still can use it for a long time.

Re: is it true that bitcoin is a disaster for local banks

We just need to know what we want. Banks want profit and they need clients. We are their clients and they make profits on us. The bitcoin is a way to earn more money. We can invest in bitcoin and earn a lot. Banks know that and that is maybe why they are afraid. They see concurrence where we see opportunity. But it is not true that bitcoin is a disaster for local banks. I think if those banks have the right mindset, they can profit as well. They just need to re-invent themselves.

Now we have the Swiss backing us. It is just awesome. Those people know everything about banking. They build a very sophisticated banking system. Many people have their money in Swiss banks. If they jump into crypto, it means that it is good. Believe me, the Swiss do not do stupid things. When it comes to banking and investment, they know it all. It is a really good news for the blockchain system. I hope this will boost the market as well.

Re: Can you wait to prove them wrong about Bitcoin?
by

on 20/08/2018, 23:29:28 UTC
It is sure that we will prove them wrong. They actually know that they are wrong about Bitcoin. They were afraid of something new. The bitcoin was made to send people free. Business and freedom in people's hand. It is indeed a dangerous cocktail. For that reason, the media has to dump us. People who panic and sell are hurting themselves. By doing so, they do not profit. The bitcoin is the future. We will prove them wrong.

Re: Is it more profitable to Hold BTC or buying a lower price and selling at higher?
by
Willie_Linder
on 19/08/2018, 01:11:51 UTC
I agree. We do not know what will happen with the cryptocurrency is the future. If you sell now, you might buy again but very expensive. It is better to hold as you said. It can rise at any time and you will win. Selling in business is never good when you do not profit. The main goal of the BTC is not to make a profit. The goal is to get rid of fiat money and to be independent of financial institutions. Many people are using the crypto as a way to make money. We must think about financial freedom and virtual money.

It is true that we must help each other. We are on this forum because we are fan of crypto. Many of us have invested and we hope to win something. I read on this forum that many people have got extra money thanks to bitcoin. It is great to read such things. If we are together, we can win. We must give advice to beginners and tell them not to be afraid. Many of them are panicking and are selling. They are hurting us. Bitcoin is popular because of shared knowledge and it is true. We must assist each other.

Re: INVEST AND DON'T HAVE REGRETS !!

Great advice. People are so afraid nowadays to do business or to invest. Life is a balance. When you invest, you win or loose. It is like playing the lottery. First, you spend your money to pay for a ticket. Afterwards, you can win or lose. Usually, you lose. With the cryptocurrency, most of them are linked to the blockchain technology system. It means that you still can buy a good or a service with it. As mentioned, in some years, the value of the cryptos we know today will be worth enough to have a happy life. For that reason, please just keep investing.

Re: corruption and education
by
Willie_Linder
on 13/08/2018, 21:37:26 UTC
I believe that educated people are more corrupted. It is strange but it is a fact. Politicians, for example, do not hesitate to take bribery even though they are all educated. The more people are educated, the more they try to cheat. It is like a lawyer trying to avoid laws. People think that education will help them find loopholes. For example, educated people do not pay fully their taxes as well. Uneducated people, on the contrary, are afraid of laws and try to obey. Of course, some of them are really mad and commit crimes but generally, educated people are the cheaters in our society. Corruption is their act.

Re: Will crypto solve socioeconomic problems?

Venezuela is investing in virtual money. Money countries are doing the same. Virtual money is a new tendency. It is actually not so new but now, with the bitcoins, it is more popular. Cryptocurrencies are game changer. Their role is to allow us to do business without banks. The role of the banks will be less important in some years. Assuming that business will be more liberal and that banks and countries will have less control means that the middle class can get extra money by investing. The more powerful banks are, the poorer people will be. The more we invest in crypto, the better we will be.

New technologies are helping people to be connected. It is good to see everybody united. We have to help each other if we want to survive on this planet. Unity is the main word. Cryptocurrencies as a new method to become rich are really converting our world. Indeed, people are spreading the word and investing. Solidarity is important in this case. Technologies such as the internet also are playing a great role in connecting people. Social networks as well. I believe that the more people are connected, the better we can live on Earth.

Re: Why does this world need decentralization so much
by
Willie_Linder
on 06/08/2018, 21:05:49 UTC
Yes, we need it. It is always hard for governments to admit it but they know about it. Decentralization is a way to fast development. It is also a way to fight corruption and to give opportunities to people. Talking about financial decentralization, well it is not suitable for banks. We know that the goal of cryptocurrencies is to allow business without banks. Actually, every transaction needs banks. With virtual money, we can do business without banks. They know this and that is why they hate it. Even hating is not enough because the more they hate it, the better it will be. In politics, decentralization is good as it allows cities to develop themselves and not wait for money coming from the central power.

Re: A coin issued by some country government - would you go for it?
by
Willie_Linder
on 31/07/2018, 22:18:32 UTC
The idea is good. It is more secure for investment. Countries can issue coins and trade. Actually, it already exists. Some countries issue coins and customers even get the benefit. The thing is that the benefits are not so big compared to other cryptocurrencies. With the bitcoin for example, in 20 years, we are going to have many millionaires. We even have some millionaires this year thanks to the cryptocurrencies. Governments cannot allow that. The benefits will go straight to them. It is like the banking system. Actually, banks make a lot of money for people. The benefits go to the banks and the countries. People who invest in banks get something. The biggest part of the benefits goes back to banks and countries. In that case, I will not invest in a coin issued by a government.

Re: Does Bitcoin had a back up by real money?
by
Willie_Linder
on 28/07/2018, 14:52:26 UTC
Very good question. It seems obvious but actually, it is very important to understand this. Even real money that we use every day is not totally backed up. Countries can have their own money if they have a certain quantity of gold. Money is backed up by gold. Unfortunately, even the dollar is not strong enough when it comes to real money. Remember the subprime crisis? It has everything to do with virtual money and real money. Nowadays, recognition of bitcoin is hard. With time, more and more companies will use virtual money and maybe then we will not need any real money to back it up. It can work on it own.

We need technology. We have been able to develop our society thanks to it. Without technology, we would have been equal to the caveman. Technology nowadays is even more important than religion. We cannot live without our phones or computers. Many people earn thanks to computers. We have many millionaires thanks to computers and the internet. Indeed technology has a big role to play in our society. I am sure that one day, we will eradicate poverty thanks to it. We are actually already trying. The bitcoin is one the method to eradicate poverty thanks to technology.

Re: Is religion necessary for humans?
by
Willie_Linder
on 28/07/2018, 08:54:30 UTC
I think yes! I can ask the question in another way. Is school important for humans? To the last question, we would all answer yes. If yes is the answer to the second question, it should then be the answer to the first question. Religion is like a college where teachers who are priests, are supposed to give a spiritual education. I read a book where the author thinks that our civilization will not be so great without religion. Remember the first universities? they actually belong to the church. In that case, religion plays a great role in the development of a society and it is therefore important.

Re: Alternatives to death penalty?
by
Willie_Linder
on 27/07/2018, 17:00:11 UTC
In front of certain crimes, it is impossible to remain impassible. The atrocities of certain acts push us to want to vilify or to blow for blow to the culprits. The death penalty has existed since the dawn of time. In all religions, we find its trace. Especially in the Bible, we see how Moses tried to discipline his people. In this sense, we can say that this punishment is to educate and discipline. I do not believe in his advantages but his only goal is discipline. Sometimes she does not scare off criminals. You just have to know the real cause of the crimes. Maybe there, we'll know what to do.
