Title: Why Venezuela's Petro coin is not recognized by the community? Post by: phipham123 on October 05, 2018, 02:34:16 AM As inflation is on the rise and economic embargo on Venezuela, Petro coin is an effective solution to save the country, but why it does not win the trust of investors?
Why a coin issued by the government and guaranteed by oil, is not recognition by the community. I know that the US embargo has had a lot of impact on Petro Coin, but I do not think it's a major cause for the community not believing in Petro Coin.

Post by: jrrsparkles on October 05, 2018, 12:27:24 PM If a crypto currency backed up by a government means there is no decentralization which means there is no difference from their fiat money and the crypto currency so which is the reason it won't attract much investors to that project.By the way what community you are talking about? ???
Title: Re: Why Venezuela's Petro coin is not recognized by the community? Post by: pozmu on October 05, 2018, 12:33:58 PM How can you buy it? I was trying to get some info about it but their website was so cryptic ;D I couldn't understand it.
Is it traded on any markets? I was interested in it as it could be a hidden gem, but maybe it's just me being biased because for some funny reason I feel somewhat connected to Venezuela (don't get me wrong - I feel really bad for current situation in Venezuela and it's people, I'm from post-soviet country, the reason I'm talking about is something very different, something personal).

Post by: o_e_l_e_o on October 05, 2018, 05:17:15 PM Why a coin issued by the government and guaranteed by oil, is not recognition by the community. I know that the US embargo has had a lot of impact on Petro Coin, but I do not think it's a major cause for the community not believing in Petro Coin. 1) Venezuela can't access their oil. Their infrastructure is crumbling and their oil sector is practically non existent. No point being backed by an asset that no one can access or mark use of. 2) Maduro is a murderous dictator. If you buy this coin, you will literally be helping to prop up his regime and be furthering the suffering and death of the Venezuelan people. 3) Any US citizens who buy this coin could face jail time. In short, it's a shitcoin, and buying it makes you a morally evil person. Title: Re: Why Venezuela's Petro coin is not recognized by the community? Post by: green547 on October 05, 2018, 06:04:20 PM The people are too smart to trust a coin created by the Venezuelan government. They have shown to only trust coins that are decentralized like bitcoin.
Government crypto goes against the whole point of cryptocurrency, they will be centralized and coins in circulation will be completely controlled by them.
