If a service only accepted bitcoin it would likely charge insane prices to stay afloat. (Supply and Demand)
Bitcoins features wouldn't be over the head exciting. Uber and Airbnb pay people out fairly and so there really isn't a need to cut them out....yet.
The hardest thing to do when you are in love with bitcoin and crypto in general like we all are, is to keep a sain head and really think to yourself "does crypto really need to be introduced to this section?".
The answer in my opinion is no.
If you can't save money using those services then don't. If at an specific place a taxi or hotel is cheaper, use them. VOTE with your wallet, ALWAYS. You may even manually find a place whose owner actually even accepts Bitcoin when talked to, who knows? Its easier than a franchise imposing conditions. True, this is something most people forget nowadays because of how convenient virtually everything is. Sometimes the conventional ways aren't bad. Anyway, I did my researches and so far I don't see any app on the market that sells services in exchange for cryptocurrencies. Like what the other person said, if they were to run on bitcoin per se, they will charge more to compensate for bitcoin's high volatility. |

If You Bought Bitcoin Each Week in 2019, You’d Be up 49%
If you Bought Bitcoin in JUNE 2019, You'd Be DOWN 49 %
VERY DISHONEST, VERY DECEPTIVE to cherry pick a date in the past that shows huge returns, and then say this is any indication for future investing... Anyone can suggest investing in any stock, even a dog, by doing this.
Wise up people 🙉🙉🙉
Hard Facts
It's really a fact because the market is volatile that we can really say or predict when will the market decrease and increase, that is why investing in bitcoin is a risk yet it can still profitable if the price of it will start to increase. Patience is only thing that we need for us not to worry in our investment and keeping our hopes high in its price. True, you can't really do the conventional style of investing and trading with bitcoin since apart from the fact that it's hard to predict, it's also hard to time your buys and purchases. What I personally do is hodl and buy when I have the money, and eventually I'll see the profits and gains of my investments. But yeah, what works for me might not work for you. Anyhow, this strategy is working, for the people who have enough money to buy btc every week, though. |

If this war between Iran and US is serious enough and not just a propaganda for the sake of its own leadership then this might impact on crypto lets say for example when Iran bombarded by US and many government institution was paralyzed people who knows digital currency will convert it assets into crypto as its one of the safest way to store its wealth without the help of banks this can bring price of crypto to increase along with the increase in demand.
This is true, other things that could affect cryptocurrency's success in the event of a war especially one on a global scale will be the obstruction of technology. As we all know war most often pauses progress and advancements most especially technology. And cryptocurrencies itself relying on technology like the internet most definitely means that cryptocoins might lose their value. |

Earn and Spend, maybe since past i already did it. And yes, usually digital product like VPN that i look must be can paid with crypto no matter what crypto because i don't save money in Paypal and don't have credit card. But overall, i already satisfied with it although i still can't buy real product in my country yet with crypto because government regulation.
Well bitcoin in the first place was intended to replace fiat currency and not necessarily a new form of asset. We can't really control the situation right now since many bitcoin investors will be affected but hopefully in the near future when technology is readily available we will be able to use bitcoin for purchases. |

Hey I'm back. haven't been on the forum for 1.5 yrs. Been on Twitter. But yeh 2019 was a good year for me in crypto. 1. I had too much in alt coins ,tron, and didn't gain much of it. My stack went all the way up. From btc. Then I saw my stack crashed down lol. It was amazing. But yeh still got a chunk back from hodling in 2017. I have been buying the whole year from 11k down. Little by little. I stayed for the 2020, 100k price well that didn't happen. Let's see the halvening now. Also stayed for the 1 million price prediction. I feel stocks is running n gunning at a good pace. But I'm still stacking satoshis.
Good prediction I must say but I would honestly prefer a slow yet steady growth on bitcoin's price rather an a bubble like what happened on 2017, it enticed a lot of people but had caused big dips right after that made it hard for bitcoin to recover. I'd say bitcoin might reach 25k to 50k this year but I won't hope much. |

Individuals are still practicing old traditional ways of transactions to accomplish the money stream. However, Cryptocurrency Era has arrived and people aren’t aware of it. If we see this era with future perspective, different industries and businesses will switch towards cryptocurrencies to pay for their services. With this, the middleman will be completely removed from many progressions. This progress will cut down costs and will offer cheaper services for the end user.
Cryptocurrencies will influence the future, as the protocols are getting tighter. Countries like the United States, United Kingdom and Australia have accepted cryptocurrencies. Many countries will be accepting cryptocurrencies in the near future. IoT is already here.
Crypto world will emerge into the ultimate trading option as more cryptocurrencies will be introduced. The trading will take place between all these different currencies once the prices of crypto increase. One of the most demanded features is the fast transactions, which will take place with the advancement of technology, with this downloading and transfer will happen within seconds. Games, books, videos and music will be combined in a blockchain and sent through crypto wallets, with the high speed feature. The most influential crypto coins are here to stay but it won’t halt the birth of other crypto coins, it will increase with time.
Cryptocurrency schemes are on a growing phase. On predicting cryptocurrencies future, features like the grand crypto bull market will continue. As with fast-track, every day it effect extensive implementations.
As soon as they are broadly approved, will become the next version of the technology in all regions. Crypto will easily be converted into currencies and vice versa. Cryptocurrency Development Services have emerged in recent times for the betterment of investors who would like to create a foundation.
According to some sources, cryptocurrencies will fall down while experiencing fluctuations, which is making the traders and the holders worry. But as per the market experts, this is just a matter of time.
Bitcoin is still very much used and adopted all around the world to this day. It has been accepted by organizations and payment gateways all across the world. So what about Altcoins? Are they worthy to buy in future? To predict the future is very hard. In the cryptocurrency world, prices are very volatile. Dealing with the issues of transparency and scalability problem, might effect cryptocurrencies in the future.
It's not like the people aren't aware of it. I mean, with the amount of noise it has been making online and on the news, who wouldn't get a glimpse of what bitcoin or cryptocurrency is. It's just that the current cryptocurrency approach we have right now is bleak, and the technology backing it up right now is not really that great. Leading to bitcoin only becoming viable as a form of investment. |

if I've created account/wallet on coinbase or any other exchange then my account is hacked and my coins/money lost who are responsible for it The Exchange where I've created account  is it my mistake what's you thought about it and how i make my account safe It's a mistake that goes both ways my friend. In this world, frauds and tricksters will do whatever they can to get an advantage, even if it means stealing other's hard earned investments. It could be a liability in law on the hacker's end which could get him behind bars. But it is also your fault in a sense since you did not take enough precaution. What I could highly suggest moving forward is for you to be mindful of where you login or register. |

Putting all my money on bitcoin is more smarter than going for altcoins? I think bitcoin will always surge even if it loses value today, i never think twice about this anymore because in the past if i never switched to altcoin i would have be in big profit today, what do you guys think about my plan? Stupid or 👍
A lot of people feel the same way as you do. Bitcoin pretty much established itself already on the cryptocurrency world that we can't even imagine it going down unlike most altcoins as of now. This is not to be mistaken, for there are still tons of altcoins out there that has potential to grow. They just need support and crowdfunding much like what we have did with bitcoin. |

Does anyone go to events? And if you do, what do you like most about them?
I haven't gone to any crpytocurrency-affiliated conventions yet but I tend to watch speeches I can find on the internet from well-known entities in the bitcoin investment world. I would love to personally see them though, to get first-hand information and insights that could help me and everyone else in their cryptocurrency investment journey. |

I recently purchased bitcoin, it was the most I have ever put into a cryptocurrency.
This is going to be a long term buy, This was taken out of stock money,
Now that I have done this I feel more excited about
where bitcoin is headed than I do about stocks. Now I feel like I should take more out of
Stocks, Feel there’s going to be more return this way. Thoughts on this am I getting carried away
Well one thing that I would highly suggest is to take little instruction from others, What works for me might not work for you if anything and as a fellow trader I wouldn't want you to lose your precious investments let alone money you have worked hard for. What you're feeling right now might subside later on so I would highly suggest you take it little by little, testing waters so to speak and see if it looks better for you. |

Fiat currencies are not a suitable tool to preserve the value of your financial well-being. For this purpose, gold, stocks, investment in promising startups, real estate and cryptocurrencies are best suited. Any Fiat money is prone to inflation, which devalues them, so they are only suitable for daily payments.
Indeed, and it is not just the US dollar that got eroded of its value over time. Most fiat currencies do. This happens because of inflation and numerous other factors affecting the price of fiat. Whereas with bitcoin this could rarely happen because of the fact that you would need to at least tamper the 21 million coins available for grabs in order to get it. Which is already a hard task in itself. |

Hello crypto lovers, I have written this article on 5 ways to earn crypto without investing or mining, I think this is very important as it is the best way to introduce new people into the cryptocurrency. The article link it below. Please feel free to share it with anyone who is looking for ways to earn crypto. https://www.publish0x.com/crypto-101/5-ways-earn-crypto-without-investing-or-mining-xozwx?a=GELe3POa69Do you know any other ways outside of the article? I am always looking for more ways to earn crypto to educate people. Also I would recommend that you look at the blogging platform the article is written on, it's one of the ways you can earn crypto for free. You create content for people to read, similar to Steemit. There are two ways you earn crypto. 1 - Creating content - Users tip your article, you receive those tips. 2 - Tipping articles - When you want to tip an article, you choose how much of the tip you give to the article and how much you keep. You have to tip at least 20%. You get a certain amount of daily tips. When you tip it rotates currently between HYDRO, Bounty0x and DAI. In the future, they will be adding BAT to the tokens you will own, i don't know if it will be added to the rotation, or they will tip more in BAT. I really like the platform, and i would recommend it to anyone who likes to read / create crypto content or who wants to earn some established tokens. Remember that all these tokens are listed on exchanges and CoinMarketCap, so they all have a value, you don't need to worry about the bounty paying out or the token being of a value. You can sign up through the link in the thread, and its free and easy. Hope to see you guys there! P.S. If you like the article and sign up, give a tip for appreciation  I will agree with your suggestions but if you really want to gain profits that are considerable in the bitcoin or cryptocurrency industry you must at the very least invest money on it. With that being said, mining is not really a good alrternative as the profits you gain are not that much compared to investing |

For sure many people again will claim that they are satoshi nakamoto even that's not true I don't know the reason behind why those people are claiming that title maybe they get more money? For sure the real Satoshi saw that more people claim that he is. The real Nakamoto is still anonymous and he did not want to reveal his real Identity to the public ever I think.
They were just too funny that they are just wasting their time thinking that they can manipulate the mind of people, thinking we are all too foolish that we will believe them. They are doing it for the people to trust them as most of the Faketoshi have their own project and their way to promote is by manipulating people. One thing these fake Satoshis don't know is that the current bitcoin supporters don't care much about who Satoshi is anymore than way back then. At this point bitcoin had already secured itself in the market and more people care about the development of the coin itself than the creator. So these frauds won't get anywhere. |

The market for Altcoins has been bad recently, and many Altcoins have died and lost a lot of money. What kind of Altcoins do you think will die?thanks for sharing
That was normal for altcoin because investor do invest for the project and they do altcoins to have an investor for their ICO. You must be wise from buying altcoin and need time for update because you need to be aware that every altcoin has a big potential from losing its ICO price in just a minute. Indeed, investors pull out their money when they see that the ICO they have trusted shows no future. That being said, is the reason why many ICO and altcoins die. In that case, as a responsible investor, you must always conduct your research especially if ou are planning on investing on a token to minimise losses if not prevent. This will maximise the profits you'll be able to gain in the future |

While most people tend to market bitcoin as being anti centralization, anti govt. so on and so forth, it occurred to me that it might just be centralized too. Seemingly we still have whales out there hoarding not just 1 5 or 10 bitcoins and its many many forks mind you (free Extra money) but with thousands upon thousands of bitcoins. So in all of this it's kind of a scary dilemma. What are you thoughts and comments on this seemingly true fact? Thoughts and comments are more than welcome.
Larger holdings doesn't mean that the scales are tipped to them. Centralisation means that the currency itself originates and is being regulated by a single entity which in the case of fiats is the central bank of each country. If you are afraid that a certain 1% club exists that manipulate bitcoin's price then let me cast it aside, there are whales indeed but since bitcoin is in itself secure. They can only do so much with the manipulation they are doing. |

Investing in multiple coins is a good idea, it's better than just investing in one coin. But investing your money in too many coins is very risky and confusing too. I think it will be better if you just investing your money in the top 10 coins.
Indeed, sometimes the more the merrier don't work. And when that happens it's gonna cause losses on your end. So what I could highly suggest as a fellow cryptocurrency trader is to formulate a strategy you are comfortable with first. And if that includes investing in multiple cryptocurrencies the I would highly suggest you take on the top 5 most successful coins in the market as it will give you more guarantees that you'll profit |

I don't think this recent price of BTC is caused by this situation between US and Iran, there's a lot of reasons that BTC is gaining price
Only if we have a war or a really bad situation in US, we can have a strong impact in BTC and cryptos (stocks too)
True, Bitcoin and most cryptocurrencies are being mistaken for goods that can be traded like oil and stuff. When in fact, bitcoin itself has its own environment. That being said, I don't see the wars affecting the price of bitcoin. If anything, this could be serious bad news for everyone as bitcoin relies on technology. And more often than not technological progress is halted when a war is cooking. |

To date, no one can be sure who Satoshi Nakamoto is. So we can only speculate about him and why he created bitcoin.
However, I think bitcoin was created because Satoshi Nakamoto was bored with the current financial system and he wanted something to break all the rules and give people the right to decide.
I think it's not like that because I've read something before that Satoshi is tired of the repeated situations of the banking industry. Where people have no freedom to use or save their own money specially in the USA where most people are living with a lot of debt in exchange of their healthy living. I think Satoshi really want to change that idea where people doesn't have to rely too much on the banking system of the government. And that's why bitcoin is being created. Indeed, Satoshi Nakamoto, or so he is well known of, saw the huge flaws of fiat currency and how it was being abused by centralised banks for their own good. This spark an inspiration on him to create a coin that's decentralised yet secure so customer to customer transactions can be done without an issue, he also made it safe to use in order to ensure the welfare of the common people. Thsi gave rise to bitcoin. |

I don't think it's just an investment. We need to be aware of Bitcoin. It was the beginning of an independent economy somewhere in the world. For now we call it independent. Perhaps the biggest chase chain will be at bitcoin. But I want to know this technology.
I think bitcoin can't be independent economies, bitcoin still need other currency to be value calcuation, and bitcoin still neednother economic ecosystem to growing. Bank is more important in economic life, we can't replace bank with bitcoin, but maybe the blockchain can intervene the system True...The main goal should be the integration of the blockchain technology into all sectors including the financial sector, its a win win situation i think because not only will banks find it easier to manage their operations and records but also, it'll bring more value to the world of blockchain, hence surging bitcoin too... Well the reason for this is because bitcoin is way ahead of us. It is a highly advanced piece of technology but we don't have the rightful tools to utilise it in its utmost potential. That's why we're just able to use it as some form of investment. Nevertheless, given the time and patience, bitcoin has the ability to revolutionize currency as we know it. We just need to have faith in bitcoin and continue supporting it so technologies to support it come quicker. |

If we hold tokens that don't have volume then it would be nice if we continue to monitor the development of tokens if it is still feasible for us to hold for the long term or even if we release them and leave the tokens, but if the tokens are very slow in its development, then it would be better if we leave the token because the risk will be very large.
This is true, instead of thinking of the negatives let's make the most out of what is in the plate for us. Most of us here in the bitcoin world have some form of knowledge in the basics of trading and economics but it will be better if we can get more help,study the market, formulate strategies. If the token we are really holding on is hopeless, then we might really need to look for another token to invest on, one that has a better chance at trading. |
