Agree. Even though Bitcoin has many underlying issues within it, it's still better than fiat. The reasons for this are many such as borderless payments, no middleman, inability to seize funds, and more. As you said earlier, most people don't understand how Bitcoin works and usually panic sell when negative news such as a country banning it or regulating it comes over the mainstream media. But those who're knowledgeable about Bitcoin, will realize that this is nothing compared to what Bitcoin's value was a couple of years ago. In addition, no matter what schemes governments try to do to destroy Bitcoin, they'll never prevail as the pioneer cryptocurrency is virtually unstoppable.

There are thousands of nodes within the Bitcoin network, and mining hashrate is increasing every day. Given that people are becoming more interested into it, the cryptocurrency will continue to grow for years to come. As such, Bitcoin has a brighter future than many of the altcoins we know and love today. Since it was the one that started it all, it will remain solid in the markets for years to come. Hopefully, it's price would reach the moon as its supply becomes scarcer over time. Just my opinion

Me neither. I've never thought that "magic internet money" would appear at any point in the future. My major concern was the double spending problem where anyone could easily hack the digital currency for their own benefit. But, once Bitcoin was introduced into the world with its revolutionary blockchain technology, I began to learn that double spending would be nearly impossible to take effect on a cryptocurrency due to the security that such technology provides. What was never thought possible can now be done thanks to Satoshi Nakamoto's invention.

Every step of the way, we learn new things about Bitcoin and other cryptocurrencies that will help us make better use of them. As well as you do, I still don't know many technical aspects of cryptocurrencies even if I've been here for 4 years. It would take some time and dedication, for me to be able to learn the technicalities of cryptocurrencies to help become an expert in the future. Despite this, I'm confident that my experiences earned will help others who're new into crypto land take the right step in the right direction in the future.

Agree. Investing is not for everyone, as you would need to know what exactly are you doing before regretting yourself making a bad decision in the future. On the other hand, saving money is much easier and anyone can start growing their capital at a slow pace. But those who're wise, would combine both saving and invest to maximize their earnings over the long term. Whereas investing gives you high rewards at a fast pace, saving gives you low rewards at a slow pace but it is less riskier than investing. For all situations, you can use both saving and investing to prevent any financial downturn. In emergencies, you would have your savings at your disposal, while your investments will keep growing even if you don't do anything (mostly passive income).

In the end, it would be up to the individual's choice whenever he/she wants to only save, invest, or do both. But, in my opinion, you get better security by saving your money in a bank. Just my thoughts

Exactly. Gambling sites provide huge rewards, especially when they're dealing with cryptocurrencies like Bitcoin. You can choose to invest into gambling sites such as Crypto-Games.net and Satoshi Dice to help multiply your capital over the long term. The key here is to find gambling sites which have a huge bankroll to benefit from your investments in the future. However, as with any investment, there's always a risk involved so never invest more than what you can't afford to lose.

In summary, there are numerous investment strategies such as buying low and selling high, investing in gambling sites, investing in PoS coins, investing in real estate, investing in masternodes, and more. Not all of these strategies would work for anyone, but it would be up to you to devise your own towards financial success. Just my opinion

Just saw information related to Credits and it seems very promising. If they manage to achieve the claimed transaction throughput, then it would be a huge competitor against other smart contract platforms like Ethereum and EOS. Considering the technology that this cryptocurrency provides, it looks worth buying and holding for the long term. As such, once it becomes adopted in the mainstream world, its prices would skyrocket, leaving you with plenty of money in your pockets.

Things aside, there are other altcoins which are worth buying right now as they give nice rewards to its hodlers. Such coins are RAIN, Bean Cash, Hodlcoin, NEO, TaaS, PoS Token, Accelerator Network, and Mintcoin. There are many more which are worth buying, but it's up to the specific user to make his/her own research before making the investment.



Agree. Whenever Bitcoin's prices rise, altcoins follow. When it happens all the contrary, then altcoins start to decline quickly in value. All of this means that Bitcoin is the "reserve currency" of all the cryptocurrencies in existence and if it fails, then the rest of the cryptocurrency market will fail as well. This in part, is good because you get to buy cheap altcoins when BTC's price is falling to help you build your way towards endless profits in the long term.

Same. Litecoin has been quite slow in price movement these days, especially when Bitcoin has been in a bloodbath ever since 2018 started. It may take quite some time for LTC's price to recover, but I'm confident that it will grow stronger than ever just like Bitcoin. The good thing that Litecoin has, it that it resembles Bitcoin's development model. It has managed to adopt scalable solutions like SegWit (which was first coded for Bitcoin) in a quicker way than the pioneer cryptocurrency. Given that it's often compared as silver to Bitcoin's gold, there's no doubt that LTC will grow alongside the "digital gold" for years to come.

As long as Litecoin has a community backing it every step of the way, there should be nothing to worry about. Until today, lots of miners and nodes are active on the LTC network which is a sign that the cryptocurrency is far from becoming dead anytime soon. Just my thoughts

That's certainly true, mate. Some countries have realized Bitcoin's true potential to transform their current economic system, while others have decided to ban Bitcoin and other cryptocurrencies as they believe that it represents a threat to their economic system. Those who accept Bitcoin within their regions would benefit in the long term as criminal activity becomes reduced because of the transparency that blockchain technology provides.

Perhaps, someday when Bitcoin becomes strong enough to handle all the world's payments, countries that have banned it (like China) would have no choice but to accept it. Sooner or later, we will be able to experience digital fiat currencies as governments make their transition towards the blockchain technology that would be a benefit to their current monetary system. This would provide them the ability to trace every single transaction made on their ledgers allowing for greater reduction of illegal activities, but on the other hand, reducing the privacy of the everyday user.

Nevertheless, only time will tell whenever government would support Bitcoin for its own growth, or join themselves to destroy Bitcoin and other cryptocurrencies. Just my opinion

Exactly. Every day, Bitcoin is improving at a fast pace. Many scalable solutions like the Lightning Network are in the works, and it's only a matter of time before Bitcoin becomes stronger than ever. The current price decline is nothing when compared to Bitcoin's value 2 years ago. As such, Bitcoin has room for growth in value within the next years.

Therefore, it's best to stay in Bitcoin rather than leave it, as you'll miss an opportunity of a lifetime to become a wealthy person once it's value skyrockets from $25,000 and beyond. The limited supply, the increasing demand, and other factors will drive its price all the way to the moon. In this case, I'll never leave Bitcoin unless it's in a situation that's about to die.

Probably. There's no telling whenever a better cryptocurrency would replace Bitcoin or not. Of course, nowadays there are various altcoins which have greater features than Bitcoin, but none have managed to surpass it yet. One thing for sure, is that Bitcoin is the original cryptocurrency which has brought the blockchain to the mainstream world. For another cryptocurrency to be able to completely replace Bitcoin, it would need to have an alternative technology that's proven to be better than the blockchain.

When that time comes, then Bitcoin would be replaced for sure. However, it seems nearly impossible now given that Bitcoin is increasing in development and popularity at a fast pace. In the future, Bitcoin might remain as the king of cryptocurrencies but with improved technologies that will allow it to scale without limitations in a decentralized manner. Just my thoughts

Agree. Ever since Bitcoin was created, it has marked a new era of finance for our world every step of the way. The governments and central banks alike have recognized Bitcoin's true potential of transforming our society in ways it was never thought possible. As such, they're slowly designing their own digital currencies based on blockchain technology which will allow us to pay anything in the future without the need for physical hard cash. In this sense, Bitcoin has completely transformed our world since its introduction in 2009, where people could achieve financial freedom for the first time in history.

Before you know it, everything would be based on blockchain technology, which means that Bitcoin will be anywhere you could imagine. Just my opinion

There is absolutely no way that a decentralized, and unregulated currency like Bitcoin would replace existing centralized monetary systems such as the Dollar which is backed by a government. The Dollar has managed to gain trust among people and businesses worldwide, as it is a regulated medium of exchange. On the other hand, Bitcoin has gained traction too but is having a hard time trying to reach a large scale of users because of its scalability issues. Not to mention, its transactions are irreversible and there's practically no way to claim your funds back once they're stolen.

However, Bitcoin has many good characteristics which are superior to fiat currency. While this is true, it may not replace the Dollar but instead live alongside the government-backed currency. In the end, we'll be able to experience the convenience of using the decentralized properties of Bitcoin, while we use the Dollar for our everyday purchases. Just my thoughts

That's correct. As long as an altcoin has a real use case in our world, then it will survive in the future. Usually, old altcoins are more prone to surviving in the future than new ones. This is because, they have established development teams and a dedicated community behind them. However, there are some new altcoins which have gained traction due to their innovative technologies in crypto land.

Therefore, among the well-established altcoins that will survive in the future, those would be Litecoin, Dogecoin, Ethereum, Namecoin, Peercoin, and even Monero. As for newly established altcoins, those that will survive in the future would be NEO, EOS, Ethereum Classic, Cardano, Qtum, Bitshares, and even ZCash. It's only a matter of time before most of these altcoins explode in value, leaving many early adopters of them wealthy in the long term. Despite this, it's always recommended to do your own research about a specific altcoin before making your next move. Just my opinion



Awesome. The Tangle technology has proven to be quite fast and scalable in IOTA. Seeing that a new coin has implemented such technology for file storage, make it truly revolutionary. I think that it could prove itself to become a nice alternative to Filecoin and other blockchain based storage solutions like Sia and Storj. If successful, then it might skyrocket in value, making it the best investment you'll ever make in an altcoin.

Nevertheless, Oyster coin looks very promising and might survive in the future if it gains enough traction in the market.

Agree. The day that demand ends for Bitcoin, it will be such that will define its death in the market. However, given that the pioneer cryptocurrency has gained traction over the last year, it will be nearly impossible for it to become dead anytime soon. As long as money is pouring into Bitcoin and other blockchain-based cryptocurrencies, it will be impossible for BTC to go down, especially since it's the original cryptocurrency which has brought us such revolutionary technology.

Therefore, the more time passes by, the stronger Bitcoin will be. After all, it is considered by many people as digital gold. Eventually, it will surpass Gold in marketcap value, and become the biggest currency/asset in existence. Just my opinion

Once I'm accepted, I'll quickly change my avatar and signature. Thanks!

Payment received. It's sad to hear this news, but it was a pleasure to work for you guys. Among all signature campaigns in existence, this was one of the best. Nevertheless, I wish you luck in all of your endeavors.  Crypto-News and Crypto-Games have made strides in crypto land, and I hope they will continue to grow for years to come. 

Agree. The more merchants accept Bitcoin, the closer it will be to overcoming PayPal. However, Bitcoin is having a hard time to scale, leaving PayPal in the lead with its higher transaction speeds, and most of all, regulatory compliance. Since transactions can be reversed in PayPal, it gives it a fair advantage over Bitcoin. Perhaps, at some time in the future, Bitcoin would improve in fee cost and transaction speed, increasing traction in the business world.

When this comes, Bitcoin would become so popular that PayPal would have to implement BTC into their platform or be left behind. Despite this, I think that both are necessary depending on the users' needs. Whenever they want freedom over their money, they'll use Bitcoin. On the other hand, if they want to request claims or have protection over their money, they'll use PayPal. Just my thoughts

That's what I've thought at first when I've started my journey with Bitcoin. As it became highly valuable over time, I thought that I was going to get rich quick. However, that was not the case as Bitcoin worked out just like regular money. You'll need to work hard to obtain what you want in life. Of course, with Bitcoin is much easier, but the same analogy applies to it. During my experiences with Bitcoin, I had been scammed many times and lost most of my hard-earned coins. If it wasn't by that, then I would've been rich by now.

Despite everything, the experiences we learn will help us teach others who're new into cryptocurrencies to avoid making mistakes. Most cloud mining services, and investment programs are scams, leaving trading, mining at home, and working for Bitcoin the only solutions towards helping you earn money in the long run. I’ve learned this the hard way, but I’ve managed to gain experience every step of the way.

Same. I've learned many things the hard way, especially when investing into cryptocurrencies. They always experience volatility, FUD, and other negative situations. But, those who're wise would invest into them as soon as they decline in value as they could bounce back in price within a short time frame. This usually happens with Bitcoin, so it's best to take advantage of the situation to multiply our investments.

Nevertheless, while there's no perfect investment strategy for this, you could devise your own strategies depending on how the markets react each day. Sometimes, it's best to try different strategies that will allow you to multiply your capital in the least time possible. By following the advice from the experts, you'll be able to achieve success with your investments in no time. Just my thoughts

Fixed deposits in banks are also good and can help you live a better financial life. By investing some portion of your money into Bitcoin, and saving the rest into banks, then you won't have to worry about becoming bankrupt in the future. It would be difficult to live with only life savings or investments. As such, there will always be a need to combine both to help you gain better control of your finances.

The key here, would be to never spend more than what you earn, and always have patience to succeed in this field. It'll be just a matter of time, before you'll be prepared for any situation in life whenever it is emergencies, disasters, or even an economy collapse in the future. Just my opinion
