Title: Do we really understand what bitcoin is capable of?
Post by: Joeyvicky on September 16, 2018, 04:14:18 AM
For some months now that bitcoin has bubbled within some specific range of value, there has been a lot of threads trying to put people in fear about bitcoin is dead, leave crypto and value is going down and so forth. But if we really know the potentials of bitcoin we would calm down and allow bitcoin as we know it to be have it way out because from 2009, all what i have observed is that even if things fall apart for bitcoin, it really comes and bounce back potently. And that is what bitcoin is capable of. Let us all get it right.

And who said we do not understand just that I think most people become frustrated with how things are going after getting to 20K and things just  falling apart like that. As for me I still know that things will bounce back and bitcoin is capable of that.

Though prices has fall drastically compared to it peak in 2017 but i think bitcoin is going through difficult times and we all hope that things will change. We truly understand what bitcoin is capable of and nontheless as the king of all coins am sure the expectation is much higher than we see now.

price being in a specific price range is not called "bubbled"! where did you come up with that term anyways?!!

those comments are actually good at the end of all this because they are some sort of purge on the market, those spreading FUD don't know it themselves but they are cleaning up the market from newbie weak hands and that leads to decreased volatility and as you can see from these days it ends the drops

Bitcoin isn't capable of anything,because bitcoin is just a tool.The users of that tool can be "capable",but the tool itself isn't capable.BTC isn't AI and it will never become.
I couldn't care less about all the people,who spread FUD and predict bitcoin's death.
There were people,who were predicting bitcoin's death back in 2011 or 2014,but here it is,still strong and standing.

BTC is capable of destroying the credit card or the fiat itself.  I think the primary purpose of the BTC is to make it easy in term of a transaction.
It just happened that it becomes an asset because of mass demand.

I'm very much sorry to say that we no nothing about bitcoin and the worse part is we are not even analysis about it and if we do this then i'm sure we will become shock.

The problem is people are so focused on the price and the profits that they lose focus on the things that are really important. Bitcoin is censorship resistant and border-less and people have received a payment network that are not controlled by some central authority.

These things makes Bitcoin unique, but people are just worried about profits and when the price with reach the next All time high.  ::)
It is only when you realize how fantastic this technology is, that you forget about the profits and the price and you focus on acquiring as much of it as you can get your hands on.  ;)

Bitcoin is a very volatile digital currency thats why many expert predict it price action which turn out to be a fallacies. Bitcoin has gain more popularity compare to some countries local currency. I believe in the future Bitcoin  is capable of replacing Fiat currency if the world must be a global village

You as an investor, bitcoin could uplift your financial status and/or destroy you by leading you into bankruptcy as well. It is very unpredictable up to the extent that it can reach the highest peak in only a short period of time (its ATH last year) but can also suddenly drop more than half of it like we currently experience in the market without anyone getting awared of. Who expected that from the very start? No one, right? This only indicates that we can't really perceived what btc was capable of.

there has been a lot of threads trying to put people in fear about bitcoin is dead, leave crypto and value is going down and so forth.
Those kind of people also serve as torn in our throats. They make the situation even worse because they're the source of FUDs in which the fragile ones believing in. The result, prices falls deeper. But as we look on the bright side, Herbert2020 was right, this stops the weak investors once and for all because they tend to go out the market and never return after realizing that cryptocurrency was not really meant for them.

Bitcoin surely has great potential in it and it gives huge profits every time to all its supports the only people dumping it are the once who think its just a way of income or a currency to use anonymously. It had many bounce back in the past and it has proved it self many time so all the early investors of it will know its potential in a better way.

They are actually unaware of the advantages of bitcoin and instead focuses on its disadvantages. If people will be like this and will not embrace technology and innovation, we cannot move on in our traditional way of dealing lives just like for example in purchasing, transactions and etc. They have to understand better on what is the value of bitcoin is in our lives.

Yes ofcourse i understand the all situation. We have to remember that this is the new world order and there is no joke about it. The bitcoin has borned 10 years ago and today it has been reached to the top.. Who coud say this 10 years ago? The bitcoin have huge potential in all over the world.

I agree with OP on his statements about btc's potential and if people are already in the crypto community for a longer period, I would say that they already knew how btc works. For every bear market that is happening, people knew that this is just an ordinary thing in the market and people don't worry much as they had seen it before that btc will always recover from it's dip. Fluctuations are just part of the crypto market movement wherein during that time, corrections are being done to make another rally right after.

some.people are just in panic mode and are frustrated with the unstableness of bitcoin but most of bitcoin users are aware of the things that bitcoin can be capable of.

I think with all just one goal within our mind, I think we will not tap the whole potential of bitcoin. People are afraid that when they try new things with bitcoin they might not get a profit.

We do understand but put yourself in the shoes of new investors. If you bought Bitcoin for 7000 and it later on went to 6000 what would you do? Wait for it to go lower or feed yourself with hope and greed thinking that one day you'll be a millionaire?

it will eventually happen for everyone or they will simply give up and leave. as we have been seeing in the past. people usually come in bitcoin for two reasons, either they want to make profit and don't care about what bitcoin is or they are interested in bitcoin as a decentralized currency in which case they will stick around and learn more about it to understand the true potential of it.
this doesn't mean people can't switch camps or can't be in more than one group though.

Bitcoin has a long journey of nearly 10 years and it has been internationally recognized as a valuable asset, people have traded and recognized it, a good future for Bitcoin.

Well almost everybody in this forum knows what is bitcoin capable and its potential. But even though we know to come and fully understand how bitcoin works and how it will help the financial sector of our economy; we can still cannot deny that we are dealing with money here and as the value of bitcoins goes down so as the investment of the people who got into it. Though we may say that we should not worry since bitcoin will climb up but we do not know what sacrifices did that person gave up to buy bitcoin. Thus knowing what bitcoin is a different story compared to the flow of the market.

Some are  at the vedge of giving up because things seems to be up and down within same specifics but lets us bear in mind that bitcoin is capable of doing everything possible to stand. For the past years bitcoin makes it that is what we hoping for.

Bitcoin is difficult to understand for a lot of people because they don't really understand how money works in the first place. People are so used to using fiat currency that they just know it works as a way to get stuff from people. They don't really understand how it works, in terms of why it has value, how much of it there is, how it is made, if the bank actually has the money they say they do, etc. People get confused, and put off by bitcoin because to really "understand" it you would need to be well versed in cryptography, tech, and economics, and maybe even more. It is difficult to understand it completely, but you don't have to understand something to use it and to gain value out of something. Right now the consumer facing technology for bitcoin is a bit more raw than the other technologies people use, so this makes people think it is harder to understand. People don't really understand how email works, how the internet works, how the US Dollar works, but we are able to use them easily without understanding them.

I dont think that we truly understand its capabilities. Though I myself started investing in Bitcoin because I had heard great stories about Bitcoin's once high market value and how it helped people to soar from nothing to earning the highest profits in the market. But because of its boundaryless nature I still think that I dont fully understand it other than the profits it can help earn.

 Bitcoin is first of its type, a crypto currency which more than 50% of world's population still haven't heard of. It is digital currency but what makes it different is that the currency has no regulator. There is no central bank like RBI or Federal Bank to regulate the flow of Bitcoin in the market. It's hard to understand how the currency came into the market and how it earned its value. The economic behind it is not easy to understand.
 Secondly, Bitcoin involve mathematical algorithms which no one can understand so easily. It requires the use special super power computers in mining Bitcoin.
 So this make Bitcoin difficult to understand.

yes I think the market is being manipulated a lot by making negative news that makes people believe it and they panic selling their coins so prices continue to down. I think that's true if the market is manipulated a lot

To be honest, I believe that we should give first preference to use Bitcoin as a payment system instead of focusing on the speculation part of it in the first place itself. I agree that big whales and institutional investors are trying to manipulate the market in a way they want in order to earn profit from this chaotic situation but still as a user and well-wisher of Bitcoin and blockchain based cryptocurrencies, we should focus on utility value of it.

There is a lot of active development in Bitcoin and its 2nd layer scalling solutions like Lighting Network. Most speculators dont watch progress in Bitcoin development closely, thats why many speculators can panic so easily


Title: Re: Do we really understand what bitcoin is capable of?
Post by: adpinbr on September 16, 2018, 03:14:27 PM
Probably not, a lot of people are actually underestimating Bitcoin, a lot of people do not know the real potential of what Bitcoin has, a lot of them do not know the true capability of Bitcoin, and I think that these people will never understand the real meaning of Bitcoin, to them its just fraud, fake, scam, etc. so I think that a lot of us know the capabilities of BTC and a lot of people do not know the real capability of BTC at the same time.

I am sure that bitcoin is capable to be back to the high price but it cannot happen in the next minute. it will be back in the other day and it will happen in the end, we only need to support bitcoin and waiting for the price to increase higher. I am sure that bitcoin is not yet shown the full potential that bitcoin can do and we can see the potential in the future.
