Well all I can say is most of the whales are all millionaires, maybe not millionaires but billionaires.

Most of them hold a huge number of bitcoins that can really affect the price of bitcoin if they want to do that. I think the term whale is like a big fish in a sea and there are other that is a smaller fish and average fish, I am still in the small fish representation. I think this link can help you. https://www.cryptocoinsnews.com/bitcoin-whale/

Not all of the plan may happen though, and when that time comes your skills in deciding will be at work.

And I think that is more important than planning because bitcoin is so volatile you will not know when it will reach a certain price and it might reach that certain price but it might continue the price increase so you have no choice but to make another plan which might not turn well.

I don't think so. Government are pretty good in such things so you must not underestimate them in terms of tracing even for bitcoin because bitcoin is not that really anonymous as people thinks.

Government can ban bitcoin, that is a given. Some countries banned bitcoin now and some of them do not really banned bitcoin but they can't access the internet because of the censorship in their country.

Forks are made for the upgrade, the way of development of bitcoin but in these case people are turning that development and upgrade away, making it a way to earn a lot of people.

If they're project or goals are really good, there are a lot of other platforms they can make those tokens. People will still be investing on those if it is really interesting and a very good project. If this will be the case, I can see a lot of people being pissed with every week, you can see a lot of forks out of bitcoin, it will not only affect users and holders but also the price.

Like any other people who made their own crypto currency, I think that is a natural response right? And if you think that it is competitive enough to live in the world of cryptos you will really do your job advertising it.

But other people are taking it negatively and I think it is not that bad because you invested a lot of time and money to that , but they will really misunderstand if they are pushing bitcoin to be the real one even if it's not.

You have a point but it don't really work that way every time. Not all forks give free coin like what must happen in the cancelled fork this month.'

I suggest finding a good altcoin or token or ICO that have a potential to pump in the next few months. Holding altcoins is good and being popular this days because a lot of people are getting big profits out of it.

Using this site :
http://www.indexmundi.com/japan/age_structure.html

The population of Japan has 12.97 percent of 14 years old and below in 2016, I think you better be amazed because even there are a lot of young people and some of now what bitcoin is.

Of course we also need to consider that the 12 percent don't really came at that age span, some of that remain of 88 percent comes also from the old people raging their ages at 65 - 75 years old.

Bitcoin's transaction is not really anonymous as everyone believe. With a good tracer, people who are involved in a transaction can be determined even if it is transacted at a deep web. Most people really need a security before accessing the deep web because with out it, they will be in danger.

And if you don't know, a lot of people we're arrested thinking that they can hide from what they have done in the deep web.

The price is really shocking, never thought that the price will continue to pump despite of some problems the past few days. If this continues the price will reach $10 000 in no time, that will be the first 5-digit price on the history of bitcoin ever.

Though, other altcoins, little by little is increasing.

There are a lot of BIP or Bitcoin Improvement Proposals about this and as you can see, some of them are being turned down and not supported. I guess it will take time before this problem is done.

In my place you can't tax bitcoin. The government know of it but they are not having an idea of taxing it all. And I think if my country wants to tax bitcoin, I guess I will not know how because I will be starting to use another crypto currency, I mean that is the best way to avoid paying taxes the reason I like to use it and I don't like it to be taken.

I think this is the point that the OP is pointing out. Path of Least Resistance is talking about how people think these days.

It means that we people just go in a way that is convenient to us, the thing that is easier to do but there are other things that can be done that will result in to a better one. The path of least resistance is the more convenient and easy way with average result and the opposite of it is the full of effort way with the better result.

A lot of us was click baited, though I am not waiting for him to come back, it is that I also want to know him for sure, every one here does.

Though the song is good, it is funny, but I think if I will be one of the Christmas choir that will sing this, this will be really cringy.

You have a point, bitcoin always pumps but whenever we see a pump we are thinking it will pump more, we are not really enjoying the price, we are like, taking advantage of the bitcoin price today.

I think the reason here is the profit other people made from these pumps. When someone told you he has a profit from buying bitcoin at these price and now it is these price gaining himself a profit, we are tend to try that and buy some, more and more people know and you on your side, who bought earlier than others think that it will pump more because of the rising popularity and instead of enjoying the big profits you have, like using them into investment, grab yourself an asset, we are waiting for it to pump and we are so scared to spend it because we are thinking that it will be more expensive.

Bitcoin will not only play a big role in the future, it also has the big role in the past. As we all know, bitcoin is the first successful crypto currency ever made in the history, without being invented, crypto currency will not be blooming years from now.

In the future, I think I will not be looking on the role it will play, because I know it will be big, but I will look how it is developed for the greater purpose it will bring to people.

And do you think that if an entire nation or a country was under a Martial Law the country or that nation will be accepted to pay a decentralized currency? Are you kidding me? If a country is under a Martial Law, it is obvious that people will still use the fiat since they will be suspected like a rebel not using your own currency especially not under the government.

I'd rather use fiat than be under in a Martial Law.

Being student is the hardest part of life as a young child. A lot of activities and a lot of home works to do, but I don't think that a money is one of the problem as a student. My family is not that rich but as a student, I've never think of budgeting my money, why? Because I don't have that money to budget.

When I was a student, even in high school, my mom will just give me money exact to how much I need, I cant buy anything with the money, not until I've gone to college where I started to work and gain myself some money. I think as a student, prioritize your money to school, it is not that you need to buy all of the things you need but you must prioritize buying that you need first in school than the things you just want to buy. Try to be contented with what you have because most of your classmates might have something that will make you decide to buy things and affect your savings. Before you think of saving your money, always calculate how much you will be needing for a day so you can distance yourself to things that you might buy without thinking.

Well, it did not, actually it is having a good price these days after reaching the ATH. But I think many people or investor are waiting for that to happen so they can buy bitcoin, but sadly it did not happen, it pumps immediately at $7000 and then after  some days reach another ATH at $8000. I think these price will stay a while at $8000 for now.

I don't think crypto currency will ever be a major in colleges, all of the informations about it is accessible online so you don't need a teacher to teach it. Rather the crypto currency, why not the blockchain. It has a lot of ways to be developed and be used in a lot of other things that will be very useful in the near future.

I don't get it as an addiction, bitcoin is an asset, a currency mostly accepted online and some countries, it is like you are saying that gold is like a heroin. Bitcoin is addicting if you are using this digital currency in gambling.
