BTC indeed the future but FIAT will not die that's what I believe it, naturally people are skeptics cause maybe they see prices is fluctuate. I read articles about BTC used by cyber crime and I apologize that the article is not useful for me crime can occur anywhere I think that fiat and  gold can also be associated with it.

Some of the Muslim banks avoid debt which is against their religious code by issuance of Palladium bars at set prices agreed between customer and bank.   So its an agreement but without debt with profit for the bank in that agreement and of course the customer gains use of value they would not have otherwise.
So thats a kind of currency use without resort to FIAT leverage or legally relying on the status given by government.  I'm sure its with the knowledge of government but not exactly a new currency, more of an old one

The use of gold or any of these alternatives to the dollar debt system as actually currency and stored as reserve asset would monetise and change the price for BTC or gold or anything.  It would all have to readjust, its hard to predict by saying the pricing now or even the supply, if gold is used more the supply will rise as certain deposits of gold become profitable to mine

Satoshi knew that fiat was a bullsh*t system which is why he created bitcoin in the first place. Gold is the only true store of value, and bitcoin is digital gold. No idea what fiat is..

Absolutely there is no doubt about this, Bitcoin will eventually become our digital gold in the nearest future, but fiat still has a great role to play in this industry. For now, until government dealers another mean as legal tender, there is no gold without fiat and there is no Bitcoin too without fiat.

For everyone to get gold, fiat must have exchanged hands while this is also applicable to Bitcoin too, that is why satoshi never created crypto to compete with fiat but rather serve as an alternative payment tool to fiat, so there is no competition here, bitcoin is just a way to simplify the difficulty fiat has brought to its user as regard payment.

Abstract.
**A  purely   peer-to-peer   version   of   electronic   cash   would   allow   online
payments   to   be   sent   directly   from   one   party   to   another   without   going   through   a
financial institution.**  Digital signatures provide part of the solution, but the main
benefits are lost if a trusted third party is still required to prevent double-spending.
**We propose a solution to the double-spending problem using a peer-to-peer network.**
The   network   timestamps   transactions   by   hashing   them   into   an   ongoing   chain   of
hash-based proof-of-work, forming a record that cannot be changed without redoing
the proof-of-work.   The longest chain not only serves as proof of the sequence of
events witnessed, but proof that it came from the largest pool of CPU power.   As
long as a majority of CPU power is controlled by nodes that are not cooperating to
attack the network,  they'll  generate the  longest  chain  and  outpace attackers.   The
network itself requires minimal structure.   Messages are broadcast on a best effort
basis,   and   nodes   can   leave   and   rejoin   the   network   at   will,   accepting   the   longest
proof-of-work chain as proof of what happened while they were gone

I've always been watching bitcoin since mid-2013 up to now, and the market/bubble is painfully toxic. I'm not a big investor or economist, and I probably still only have superficial knowledge on how the entire blockchain systems work.

I just patiently watch the graph, and keep telling myself not to invest because everyone tells me it's a giant bubble that will someday pop. Recently, I started to run a few side businesses dealing in Bitcoin as payment methods, but I've never stored it long term and always converted it to cash.

I remember back in 2014 when I first thought of investing in Bitcoin as a long-term investment, and obviously was pressured out of it because everyone kept thinking it was a bubble that was about to burst. I'm starting to think about it again now that Bitcoin is starting to crash - and generally speaking in the past it's done quite well after crashes, recovering and increasing every once in a while.


What do you guys think? Is it worth it to give it a try? This would be my second crypto investment, and I'd be throwing in $5-10,000 at most. Any ideas?

From the part of the country am from basic and lower level of education are called primary and secondary school. This are the building time and foundation level of any student and is knowledge the get from here they can use to build there next level of education.

I know by now some higher level institution has already started lecturing about cryptocurrency.
But as a teacher by profession am passionate about passing any knowledge I earn to someone else.

Cryptocurrency seems to be something of the future so I would be wise to inculcate it into our young ones(leaders of tomorrow) now so it would not look strange to them.

I don't run the biggest school in my area in fact it's on a low budget. But am trying to find the simplest ways to put out cryptocurrency Knowledge to this kids.
 
I have laid my hands on some books
*blockchain revolution, the internet of money, cryptoasset, digital gold, and age of cryptocurrency  this books has been very helpful and being here on the forum has giving me a direction.

The system of education in my country is not top notch so this would not be easy to set up but am willing to go the mile.
I  am very open to opinion, advices and newbies would benefit from the advices.

The ones who says Bitcoin is a garbage are only saying it because they either have reputation,businesses,self interests and other things that might damage them in any way Bitcoin could. One other reason is someone had paid them to say such things, to tarnish and to demote what Bitcoin currently have. Now we see what potential it has and we the only ones who utilizes Bitcoin are able to understand what are it's uses to help some of our economic problems, individually or common groups and companies. As a whole crypto currencies is on it's stage of development and we haven't reached it's full potential yet. Now if they say it is still a garbage then it wold be too late for them to realize and accepts if this goes mainstream, that only means regret for them.
