Revolutionary

Bitcoin has the potential to make life difficult for the financial industry, just like e-mail at that time removed most of the postal business along with dozens of other businesses.


Bitcoins briefly explained
There are currently approx. 12 million Bitcoins, and when 21 million Bitcoins have been created in the year 2140, the production will be stopped.

We'll keep acquiring more BTC and invest in Bitcoins;
Not just because we believe we can profit from it, but rather because we support this revolutionary technology

Really big thanks for any donation hopefullly you success and get freedoom of financial :

Two questions:

1) At what price did you get in?
2) Why should anyone listen to imposer?

Imposer? Do you mean his account name?
The reasons don't really matter, as long as you invest.

Investing in btc is good.
Adopting and using is better. And am amazed at how quickly this is now happening.

How long do you think it will be until people don't look at bitcoin as an investment but as a currency?

Personally I think the majority of users don't purchase goods with bitcoin. A lot do but more people look at it as an investment, not as a currency for day to day use.

I'm on the other side:  (Note: I'm generally positive on most Bitcoin related subjects)
That video makes us look like a mindless cult of fools.
Bitcoin is not "my life" and "troll face" isn't original or inspiring ....sorry.

I'd rather bitcoin were considered more normal than it being something so extreme. I'm still waiting for it to gain mass adoption. I don't think it will be a matter of months, more like a few more years until most people know what it is and understand it.

Let's not get carried away with predictions as it could all go to zero tomorrow (hope not but it's possible)

Question: What financial freedom do I get out off Bitcoin if im poor as fuck and live in a country with high unemployment?
Also, when you ask rich as fuck Bitcoin people to send you some, they act as the current elite = no thanks.
Bitcoin = moving the elite from rich bank aristocrats to rich lucky early investors and miners, that will laugh at poor people on dead ends asking for some help, just like the rich bank aristocrats used to laugh at them. It's the former bullied playing the bully. In the big picture nothing changes, unless you were there before the price exploded or unless you already had money, your (my) life is exactly the same pre-post Bitcoin, and so it is for the 99.99% of people in the world. This is why the alt currency subforum is huge, it's just poor people trying to pick up Bitcoin peanuts. How pathetic is the human race, this can't be fixed.

I agree. At first I thought I was going to get a laugh out of it, but no. Yawn.

Question: What financial freedom do I get out off Bitcoin if im poor as fuck and live in a country with high unemployment?

It actually has the potential to enable people in developing countries. There's a huge percentage of people who are unbanked or live with rapidly inflating currencies who can now have a form of secure banking with bitcoin. There are companies developing apps that will allow people to send and receive bitcoin on "dumb phones."

Indeed; like happened in 2013, being at $220, dropped to $80 and then it exploded to $1000+

So imagine what will happen now...

As a store of value I think it has great potential. I will trust the free market to maintain my wealth over the inevitable decline of fiat currency. I don't want to take part in recessions or depressions.

2) Why should anyone listen to imposer?

I think he means:  "Are you THEEeeee dread pirate roberts of infamy?"
And if not:  "Why should we listen to you of all people?"

When people start to spend instead of hold.

For me that will be after it's price goes up a lot so I feel like I can afford to spend some.

What I belive as well. What I do is maybe wrong in one way but I cant help it.
I dont want to use my bitcoins because I belive they will be worth more in some month/years.
I hope that the day when I can buy a house from my bitcoin will come. That's why I dont want to spend them and regret it.

But ofc, buy some and have in a spendable wallet is probably the right to do.

It’s always a good thing to invest on something and bitcoin is one place to begin with. You can hold on to it and spend it online.


Title: Re: Let's Talk Bitcoin | Why I Invest
Post by: Suptiele on January 07, 2018, 12:06:29 PM
I invest because bitcoin have value and many start accepting bitcoin as payment system.
Invest was so risky but after CME accept bitcoin it is easy to say we can investment without risky.
Bitcoin is gold
Banking systems continue to print a lot of money.
We must find better investments.
Bitcoin is the alternative that makes us invest our money instead of continuing to buy more papers whose value is decreasing daily.

So so so so true, I see this nonsense in every single thread out there lately and it is pissing me off that it makes like 0 sense how it is even related

I invested in bitcoin because I hope someday it will give me decent income and I don't need to work for a job anymore. Early retirement is what I'm planning for because this will me more time for my family.

because bitcoin has entered the best year that can be entered now, and this year everyone thinks it will be 100,000 $ in thought, so I think investing is an open form of money.

Huh, don't you know that even banks have started to design their own altcoins and virtual, digital currencies to be like blockchain technologies? That's why you better invest in btc
