1221  Economy / Economics / Re: Can blockchain replace the traditional banking system? on: August 18, 2021, 04:24:00 PM
The emergence of blockchain technology has changed the development of global digital payment system business. With the impact of new cryptocurrency projects on banks and other financial institutions, many companies are forced to start making changes to their systems.
In the traditional financial system, the regulator will monitor your operations in order to maintain the integrity of the system, and the process will incur large costs and may be full of fraud. But the blockchain system gains integrity by incentivizing the best interests of the system and allowing anyone to verify it.
Blockchain and cryptocurrency are integrated into all walks of life to solve traditional solutions with safer and more efficient technologies. Although it is well known that it cannot replace cash, it may have the opportunity to replace or cooperate with traditional banking systems. Blockchain as an important innovation field of financial technology, can it replace the traditional banking system in the future?

https://www.ibtimes.com/can-these-blockchain-solutions-replace-traditional-banking-system-3259844

Banks previously said they don't need a "blockchain" to launch CBDCs of their own. Everything would be stored on a centralized database accessed by these same financial institutions. It makes sense since Blockchain is all about decentralization. If there's a central party in the system, then it wouldn't be a Blockchain anymore. Instead of replacing the traditional banking system, public blockchain networks will become an alternative for those who need them the most. It was never about taking down banks anyway. As long as crypto remains decentralized, nothing else matters. Financial freedom is what crypto/Blockchain tech is all about. Take that away from it, and you'll get nothing more than another banking system subject to manipulation, fraud, and corruption. Just my opinion Smiley
Dont know on why they do really have that kind of mindset or believing that crypto/blockchain tech did exist to replace off the traditional banking system? If we do really tend to see the picture as a whole and the probabilities of things to happen then it is almost close to impossible or wouldnt really happen at all.

For sure they would create something which can be handled out or simply not a decentralized one.Its always out of their interest on dealing with stuff which cant really be controlled and its not actually surprising at all.

They could adapt but it is less likely to happen.They are really fan on creating on their own and wont be tending to use something which do totally oppose their interest or motive in the first place.


States will definitely apply blockchain technology in various sectors of the economy and management, since this technology, when using the Internet, makes it possible to securely store any databases in constant access mode. However, when creating their own digitalized central bank currencies, this will not always be the case. Some states claim to be developing their stablecoins on the ethereum platform and will therefore use the blockchain. At the same time, the Chinese government does not use blockchain technology to create its digitized yuan. Let's see how it will work after its official launch.
The banking system will exist as long as the states themselves exist, since they are part of each state. They will apply something new to the extent that it is economically beneficial for them.
1222  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Bitcoin, switcher for mankind from Carbon-based to Silicon-based civilization on: August 18, 2021, 10:32:36 AM
In my opinion, you are exaggerating a little about the so-called silicon civilization. All life on our planet arose from the interaction of mainly four chemical elements - carbon, hydrogen, nitrogen and oxygen, which form the basis of organic chemistry and the basis of life on earth. These are the lightest elements and it is believed that during the formation of the planet Earth, due to rotation, they ended up on the surface and formed the basis of organic life that we have now. On the other hand, the existing life can be characterized as a way of existence of protein bodies.
There is an opinion that life could exist on the basis of amino acids.
What is described here as the transition from a carbon-based human civilization to a silicon-based human civilization actually means a transition from a human civilization to a civilization of artificially intelligent machines. Of course, technological progress cannot be stopped. However, you need to be very careful here, since the artificial intelligence of machines can become hostile to humans and a lot of films and books have been written about this, so far as from the field of science fiction.

1225  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: If all crypto users to KYC on: August 04, 2021, 09:38:09 AM
All those shitty "regulations" will ruin the whole concept. Yes maybe there will be less scams etc. but freedom comes with pros and cons. Scams and other shady stuff related to crypto is just a con. I laugh at all those government officials when they talk about "regulating" crypto related stuff. Just lol. The rules are already written in the source code, (eg: Amount of btc) we don't need more rules and no one can make up more rules aka "regulations". Btc belongs to my wallet and no i wont give you my belongings. Stay away regulator!
States and their governments will establish and obviously tighten the rules for the circulation of cryptocurrency, respectively, and the rules for handling it for participants in this market. They will not interfere with the concept of the cryptocurrency device, they do not have to, and they cannot change anything here.
So far, the rules are being established that participants in transactions in cryptocurrency worth over one thousand euros must be identified. That is, the identification will not be continuous, transactions with small amounts will remain anonymous.
1226  Economy / Economics / Re: Can Bitcoins kill Central Banks? on: August 03, 2021, 06:04:20 AM
If you are talking about ordinary banks, then I would have said that there is a possibility. But central banks are mentioned here and they are an essential part of the government system. If you kill the central bank, then you are destroying the government's control of the economy. I am not sure whether any of the regimes would allow that to happen. And in case that occurs, then there will be complete chaos and anarchy. This is like uncharted territory, and no one knows what the situation will be like without the central banks.
Therefore, this cannot even happen theoretically. Bitcoin and other decentralized cryptocurrencies are incapable of causing significant damage to the banking system. Cryptocurrency and the banking system as part of the system of state power must coexist, and this is primarily needed by the cryptocurrency itself. If we assume that the cryptocurrency will pose a threat to the existence of banks, then the states, of course, will not stand aside. They have very strong levers of persuasion and coercion, and in general, states are capable of destroying anyone who encroaches on their system of organization. Therefore, nothing threatens the banking system. It has existed and will continue to exist.
1227  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: The Idea of Bitcoin As A Religion on: August 03, 2021, 05:13:30 AM
No, in my opinion, bitcoin cannot solve this problem, since it works in a slightly different plane and does not participate directly in the real sector of the economy. Inflation, overproduction, debt, offsetting payments, crises, this is not for cryptocurrency. Cryptocurrency has its own functions and methods of solving its problems. The author of this topic does not offer any of his own options for solving the problem of debt with cryptocurrency. He generally wonders if this is possible at all. No, this is not a job for cryptocurrency. Let the states deal with their debts themselves.
1228  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Can Bitcoin solve the world's debt problem on: August 03, 2021, 04:49:07 AM
Can Bitcoin provide a way out of the world's debt problem? The current fiat world incentives debt through currency debasement and cheap debt. Too much debt can be a problem for long-term productivity and raises questions about sustainability.

Is bitcoin a possible solution to this mess? If more and more people start going from fiat to bitcoin, can we at least end up having a soft landing when shit hits the fan? Or will bitcoin exascabate the problem instead? Is there still hope for this world?

1229  Economy / Economics / Re: The Role of Government in Crypto on: August 02, 2021, 06:23:24 AM
the primary role of government is to provide a regulatory framework in an economy, Government sole responsibility is to provide a guideline on how thing are to be done within their jurisdictions.

this is not different with cryptocurrency although cryptocurrency is created with high anonymous the truth remains that cryptocurrency co-exist with other factors in the economy such as the bank and the traditional currencies, for crypto to become a full flesh currency it need to under go government regulation because that is the only way cryptocurrency will be considered a legal currency.

questions:

will will government regulations on cryptocurrencies undermined crypto decentralized nature?
Of course, states and their governments will be forced to either ban or regulate the circulation of cryptocurrencies. They cannot allow uncontrolled circulation of "nobody's" money and in ever-increasing volumes. This will be a long-term confrontation and it will depend on how we can defend our right to use the cryptocurrency.
However, cryptocurrency will have to exist along with the national money of states and take its own niche in the financial sector.
1230  Economy / Economics / Re: The Central Digital currencies will make monetary policy more difficult on: August 02, 2021, 06:07:16 AM
When a crisis arrives, central banks usually say that they will do whatever it takes to solve it, which usually means ridiculous amounts of money being printed a large amount of debt being bought. The traditional banking system "multiplies" the effect as a result of the fiduciary system (you can lend more than you have).

With the new digital central currencies such as yuan, euro, dollar,... anyone could potentially hold an account on a central bank skipping the intermediaries. I think that this will have a negative effect on the ability to cope with further crisis by monetary policies. The risk should not be ignored.
The digitized currencies of the central banks of states are so called because they are issued by the central bank and all transactions will be under their control. Banks in this case will act as intermediaries and will be able to suspend or cancel any transaction.
Therefore, I do not think that the use of this digitized currency will complicate the work of the banking system. On the contrary, it will work more efficiently when using blockchain technology.
1231  Economy / Economics / Re: Which area will develop after the epidemic? on: August 02, 2021, 05:54:47 AM
If in terms of economy, those who will develop will surely be the huge and wealthy countries like China, US and different countries in Europe. Ever since the pandemic occured, we've all witnessed how much advantage they had on such crisis specially with China where the virus started. It could be seen that after just a short while, it was able to recover and put the virus under their control. There are even rumors that it is their way of conquering the world as other countries suffers and gets their economy going down, they have everything under control while their country is still progressing.
It is possible that the coronavirus is China's weapon to gain economic dominance in the world. It originated in China and, whether deliberately or not, was distributed throughout the world. Also, for some reason, the Chinese government was one of the first to invent an effective vaccine against this virus. After the coronavirus epidemic broke out in full force in almost all states, with such a significant population in China, only isolated cases of this disease were recorded.
But the coronavirus continues to mutate and China may also be under attack in the future.
1232  Economy / Economics / Re: Do you see yourself quitting after this bullrun? on: August 01, 2021, 07:12:53 PM
"Goldman Sachs banker quits after making millions on cryptocurrency" - That's the headline on one of CNBC article

Quote
~ Aziz McMahon, Goldman’s managing director and head of emerging market sales in London, quit after making millions of pounds from a bet on the digital currency ether, three former employees at the investment bank told CNBC.

~ McMahon is believed to have cashed in at least £10 million ($14 million) worth of cryptocurrency, the sources said.

~ When approached by CNBC, Goldman Sachs confirmed McMahon’s departure but declined to comment any further.

I purposely left out the coins he bought and profited from because it's irrelevant. The guy must be earning big already given his former position but it took investment in cryptocurrency to quit his job.

How about you? Do you see yourself quitting your day job after this current bullrun? I hope you make enough to start with a business of your own.
Apparently, he had large sums in circulation. They are the ones who can bring big profits, which will be enough to switch to a light business with little risk. Unfortunately, most of us do not own such large amounts, therefore, our profit is much smaller. And this means that while we are in cryptocurrency and try to catch and realize that almost the only chance in our life that will allow us to have financial independence.
1233  Economy / Economics / Re: Can cryptocurrencies replace fiat currencies on: August 01, 2021, 07:02:06 PM
Not yet. The whole world is equal to the dollar, and is used to the dollar and local currencies.
I have no idea what will happen if financial systems disappear leaving only cryptocurrency, how will we determine the value of certain things in cryptocurrency?
I'll tell you what happens, we will see the whole financial world collapse right in front of our eyes because cryptocurrency alone won't be able to handle the sudden vacuum in power that was in place after the fiat is gone although that's not the likely scenario to happen, most likely it will be a slow absorption until it becomes all digital.
Even if the world of the future is digital, this does not mean at all that it will be a cryptocurrency. Money from states or large corporations that can replace states will still exist. Cryptocurrency cannot exist alone. It can only go along with a currency that reflects the value of material values in society that are in circulation and are more stable in their price.
There are many reasons why cryptocurrency cannot replace fiat money.
1234  Economy / Economics / Re: Can blockchain replace the traditional banking system? on: August 01, 2021, 06:51:46 PM
Banks already partially use the blockchain and, in particular, the ripple network. However, their use of the blockchain does not mean that something will change significantly in this system, including towards its decentralization. Only the efficiency of banks' work on the old traditional principles will increase. So nothing significant in the banking system will change.
1235  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Is Bitcoin an Investment or Payment form? Has it lost its purpose? on: August 01, 2021, 05:14:50 PM
No, I don't think Bitcoin lost its purpose anyway. Aren't many companies have been accepting Bitcoin? But yea, we can't ignore most people select Bitcoin as a potential investment. We can't or shouldn't prevent them, but it doesn't mean really Bitcoin losing its purpose why has it been created. I can't blow up your concern about transaction delay, but it really depends on the fees that you are using. There are a few features that would reduce fees and speed up transactions duration like SegWit & Lightning networks. Hope it will reduce transactions delay problems.
Bitcoin was primarily created as an alternative means of payment to the current payment system. However, like any money, it also performs a number of functions inherent in money, including as a means of preserving value. However, Satoshi Nakamoto probably did not expect that the function of preservation of value would be so prevalent in it that people would use very little bitcoin as a means of payment for the purchase of goods and services. Of course, if people see that bitcoin is constantly increasing in value and simply holding it brings them large profits, it makes no sense to use its other functions. It's like slaughtering the goose that lays the golden eggs.
1236  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Money flowing out of BTC into Altcoins on: July 31, 2021, 05:42:45 AM
I would advise you to keep the bitcoins, altcoins and stablecoins in your investment portfolio.
And I would hold some of the Top 30 coins with a 10-year perspective.
I came up with forecasts for bitcoin from 70,000 to 150,000 dollars in this rally, but if you find a coin whose price can rise 3 times or more, then you can invest.
It looks like you got a little wrong in your predictions. In May, a few days after the creation of this thread, prices plummeted by more than 50 percent and it was still a good time to take profit in both bitcoin and altcoins. In that rally, Bitcoin failed to climb to $ 70,000. Perhaps he will do it by the end of the year, and maybe next year. As practice has shown, we were too optimistic about the rate and duration of price growth. Well, we continue to learn and study the behavior of this market.
1237  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Speculation (Altcoins) / Re: I am not investing in Bitcoin, I am staying with Altcoins on: July 31, 2021, 05:02:13 AM
I am not investing in Bitcoin, I am staying with Altcoins

Why I am choosing altcoins is because bitcoin is now too much volatile and there is too much hype regarding Bitcoin, Altcoins will be recovered soon and will be hitting to new highs, but in case of Bitcoin, We are not sure that when this bubble explodes. Since we are not sure, investment in altcoin is only the safest option.

Obviously it's your money and you have the right where to invest it nobody can force you to invest in BTC, probably you will have done deep research about investing in altcoins hence you're pretty confident and giving much priority to altcoins over BTC, well best of luck with your investment in altcoins hopefully it will bring benefits for you.
Well, investing in bitcoin today and at its current relatively high price already poses a little more risk than it used to be. Your reasoning has its own logic. However, while investing in it is still safe from the point of view of the safety of our investments and their profitability. There must be several more cycles of significant rise in the price of bitcoin and its fall before the investment risk reaches its redline.
It should always be remembered that the cryptocurrency market is volatile and influenced by various negative news.
1238  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Speculation (Altcoins) / Re: TRX to $1? on: July 31, 2021, 04:43:05 AM
Has been following JustinSun since long time ago i think this man is very clever to creating hype and i think she ofther break he's promise to TRX supporter. $1? Maybe it could happen but i don't know how long it will take, but my prediction it gonna take very long road for TRX to reach that price.
at least he has tried to make a new breakthrough which is also very profitable when ethereum costs are high and can be used as a low-cost alternative. it takes time to develop and many are trying to compete with the emergence of other platforms.

with last ATH $0.231673 - Jan 05, 2018 with -73.6% of its last ATH now the price is at certainly not easy to jack up to get to a good price. if you can reach $ 1 is already an achievement in itself.
The current relatively low price of the Tron and its good functional qualities suit everyone. For the price of this coin to rise to as much as one dollar, something significant needs to happen on this network. By itself, in the current relationship, this coin will not be able to rise in price to one dollar.
1239  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Why do many mainstream economists always oppose Bitcoin? on: July 31, 2021, 04:23:40 AM
For some mainstream economist, they see bitcoin as something that can disrupt the norm. And we all know that people resists changes. But there are some who are very positive on what bitcoin can bring specially to the majority. They saw it as something that can tip the balance of power, sort of. And it can give financial freedom specially for those who are unbanked. Giving them a lot of opportunity to manage and earn.
Today's recognized economists, whose opinions we can hear today, were educated in the old days, which even theoretically did not allow the possibility of such digital money, especially decentralized and not issued by governments. Therefore, of course, they cannot give an objective assessment of the events taking place in the global financial market. It is necessary to change the current generation of economists, only then will we be able to hear completely different reasoning. Everything has its time.
1240  Economy / Speculation / Re: Bitcoin price is returning to $40K — But will shorts have their revenge? on: July 31, 2021, 04:03:14 AM
Eventually? I mean it is unthinkable to imagine bitcoin will never go down, of course it will go down, what we can't do however is the fact that price will not be going up forever, it is impossible for us to go up and up and up without ever going down.
Bitcoin price movement are something that is very difficult to predict. For most of the time we have seen it go up and down. Being something is unavoidable as bitcoin is traded freely in the market and supply and demand will be the deciding factor. We can still expect the price to down after a big gain and we also expect a new ATH to form after the dump. That's how the market works and sometime we are too rigid to judge that whale like to manipulate the market.


Yeah its hard to predict but what's good happening right now is bitcoin bouncing back again and the price touch down at almost $42k so I wonder on where is the stop point on this since if we can see $50k or even $60k next month provably this will create a huge break on bitcoin. Although you are right that we can still expect the price to go down but as it shows a good recovery we can still rely that we cannot see a huge bear market season the same on what happen last 2018.
Of course, the situation of previous years in terms of price will not be repeated. Even if there are some general patterns in the rise and fall of bitcoin and other cryptocurrencies in this market, the time of year and news information are different. Therefore, everything cannot be exactly repeated. Indeed, there should be no longer a long bear market after the last sustained rally in the first half of this year. We see that prices are going up little by little. Now the price of bitcoin is $ 41,928. However, I expect good price growth in the fall.
