5  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Bitcoin surpasses gold on: August 19, 2021, 05:11:09 PM
Scott Malekner, the leading cryptocurrency market trader, believes that the price of Bitcoin "will cross the $1 million over the next 10 to 20 years" and that its market value will surpass the value of the gold market. Of course, Malekner noted that this situation is only possible if the U.S. Stock Exchange authorizes the launch of tradable funds. The move paves the way for institutions and investors to access Bitcoin, and as a result, Bitcoin can leave gold behind, he added.

12  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Bitcoin ban, mission impossible on: August 18, 2021, 11:03:59 PM
Given the nature of this digital currency, there are always conversations to be heard about not buying Bitcoin, as Bitcoin works outside the traditional banking system, so there are too many opponents to it. However, its design is such that no one can create a particular barrier to buying it. If you have access to the Internet and a Bitcoin wallet, you can invest in buying Bitcoin.

Many countries have struggled to obtain this digital currency. Bolivia, Thailand, Vietnam and Bangladesh, for example, are all trying to obtain Bitcoin. Even more advanced countries such as Russia, Japan, Australia and Venezuela have attempted to legally sell Bitcoin. But it is interesting to note that some countries, such as India and the United States, have not yet taken action in this regard and have not yet defined an official policy on such currencies.

In general, it should be said that bitcoin cannot be an obstacle, and this is one of the advantages of Bitcoin.
13  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Bitcoin instant transactions are less secure on: August 18, 2021, 10:57:05 PM
As you know, each Bitcoin transaction usually takes a few seconds, and confirmation of the same transaction starts ten minutes after that. During this time, interaction is permitted and may also be reversible. Deceptive users try to cheat. If you can't wait for approval, request a small transaction fee or use the Unsafe Interactions Detection System, which can enhance security. For higher amounts, e.g. US$1,000, it makes sense to wait for 6 confirmations or more. Any confirmation can reduce the risk of reverse transactions exponentially.

15  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Why is the price of Bitcoin variable and can it stabilize? on: August 18, 2021, 05:40:11 PM
Hi I am Ali and this is my first post on Bitcoin Talk.
Because the bitcoin economy is new, its new nature, and sometimes illiquid markets, the price of Bitcoin can increase or fall unforeseenly in a short period of time. But with the increase in liquidity, this market can gain public trust, as can Fiat currencies, even though it is not of a physical nature.
