I'm not trying to be prejudice against women on bitcoin, but I think we need to work harder to bring more women into Bitcoin but not content to what we already have today, undoubtly I'm not happy with how few women are actually interested into bitcoin. But how are we going to change women? Men are easy to change for Bitcoin.

I think it make some sense, everyone was used to be working for dream prior to the crisis, I’m not sure what is that dream they all working for, retirement? Flying car? Fly to the moon? I think they used to be working for space travel. And that’s real many people loss their jobs and they need to find job eagerly, most likely they don’t have saving at all or want to make more money to save themselves? and I found many properties getting foreclosure, some huge constructions project halted, and people are lining up the mental clinic, I think many suffered from mental health? If you ask me whether I had that dream, I don’t have that dream, all I care about is waking up everyday and go to work to feed myself, and it is the same for all my peers too, we never talk about some kind of dream.

Wait, I think he need more elaboration to his story, spending on whores, 100 escorts, food and travel, that sound just like any generic story shared all over the fb, who know he may just come out with a piece of fake story

The nature of inflation created a group a people we called it capitalist, the capitalist are the person who benefit from the skewed inflation that what we have today, the unfair distribution of wealth that ultimately robbing from the poor and the middle class. But we are getting smarter, the few of the elite decide to abuse this capitalism system to the max, and they created the new capitalist that only benefit the fewest of the few, the cronyism capitalism, this is when the money creation are totally NOT distributed to anyone except the elite crony, when your gov tell you the inflation is 5% this years, and they are also telling you some biggest bank on the town need to be bailout, and you should smell crony bailing out each other, this is when they are taking money out from your tax money into the pocket of the elite, it is how perfect bailout are robbing all the 99%, or may be 120% of the total wealth creation, and who gonna pay the price? Inflation gonna pay the bailout, and when it is not enough, the tax payer will also gonna pay the price too, inflation alone will soon not enough to bailout the elite, it is just a matter of time.
And you know why Apple are leaving? Google are leaving? Why more and more big companies that create middle classes are leaving? They don’t want o pay the price, who want to pay the price do not need to leave the country. They may be evil companies to have leave the country, but don’t forget their contributions are good for economy, I don’t understand why people decide to attack something that they don’t understand, they could be mislead by mainstream news. And there is a lot of fake news circulated on the net, no one would know the facts anymore, and it take time and intelligence to tell the facts, most people do not need to know the facts.

The purpose of bitcoin was created to distributed equally, the design itself is the proof of work, I think Satoshi never expect his work are being abused too by the mining farm who decide to mine all the Bitcoin for themselve, but I would like to see what is the end goal of this little experiment in the future.

Inflation is always good, because it create more money supply into the market, but the problem is all the money created during the inflation didn't get distributed equally, or not at all distributed, all the money goes to the pocket to the already wealthy, and you and me only received less than 1% of the money created, 99% vs 1%, is it not bad enough when inflation was abused into benefiting the few of the elite who control everything?

Do you know how to change them to accept bitcoin? Obviously it would take me a lot of efforts to change them. And I don’t think I could change them into doing anything, but bitcoin did change a lot of people. And I think it’s easy to tell who had changed for it.

Just hodl it like any currency, and spend it just like a currency.

There is a lot of services readily to accept bitcoin, of course hodling currency is a no brainer decision, hodling USD, JPY, Rupee, Euro, but why not bitcoin?

I think it’s not about being the right gender, it’s more of changing for something, you won’t be able to change gender as easily as changing for the bitcoin

Volatility may be the characteristic of bitcoin, but what if you keep all your wealth into Fiat, how does it hedge against fluctuations, and for me it is more risky to keep entire wealth in one currency, we wouldn’t know what in future the particular currency would worth nothing. Btw I’m very sure hodling bitcoin would be a no brainer deal, it’s up to the individual taste.

It is not easy to get into bitcoin, I had been searching for info for so many years, some of my tech savvy friend got to know about bitcoin as early as 2008, from some anime site they frequent, but they didn't care about it until lately. Think about Winklevoss twin, I believe they are too, merely lucky enough to acquire recently massive bitcoins from the source that came from the FBI, there is a lot of stories associate with how to obtain bitcoin, but not on clearnet.

I don't think I could buy more bitcoin right now, all the services/exchanges that I could use years ago are now completely gone, and they are not coming back anytime soon.


You won't believe there are just so much stereotype personality in this world, and they are also the reason why we have all the financial mess today, they're always so full of themselve, egoistic, but they are also the best speculators that will pump the bitcoin to the moon, surprisingly bitcoin always works against their goal.

It is definitely a good reading. I think most people simply don't have saving during the time, or they could barely have any saving, I have few of my peers who are so lucky to obtain some of the best scholarship for their education, and it's enough to last the education easily while still have 50% fund leftover for their disposal, but I'm simply amused by how they quickly dry up all the fund within a few years, just for the rent for the utility bills, the fee for all their education need, and well you know it's also the time when they encouraged to begin to pursue their love during youth, I believe they spend most of the fund into someone they love, I had experienced myself that I usually spend crazily just to impress the girl that I like, and it usually work, and I wouldn't control my spending easily after that.

Yeah I found the same for ETH too, was eager to try out how to get doubling ETH by sending some to the scams

Wow they could enjoy the worry of their pension fund, we could only worry about job security, because retrenchment are so often that you could barely think about retirement, and more over pension.
Talk about forced premature retirement.

Since after the crisis, I can feel the people around me are becoming extremely money mind, I found them to be money addicted, they would do anything to get money, pay to win in competition, micro transaction, webcam whoring, social network whoring, whatever you can think of, no matter men or women, they are both super materialistic, and I found women are way ahead of men to demand more money out of their every limited time. I didn't blame money for anything, I'm just couldn't accept everytime couple are going to fight day in day out for money money and more money! Every time she will tell me money this and money that, and it soon become a fight.

Getting to know it was the easy task, to actually acquire some of it are something ridiculously difficult, I was going around and asking my friends, bank about it, no one will tell me more info, nothing at all, when I tell them bitcoin, they will simply ignore it, no matter how many times I remind them, they do not seem to care about it, but I continue to wonder how to get one of that, I believe it is extremely difficult to get into it in 2011, in 2012, only one exchange existed to trade bitcoin, and I didn't know how to deposit money into buying it, I believe only the insider have this special access not for ordinary public, only shark are invited into it, we are all late into the party.

I'm agree with it, most millenias could only get into debt, personal loan, study loan, getting married and easily piled up with so much loan that no recourse, my peer are getting 100k in scholarship in that year, but they're quickly spend it up, I'm too surprise how fast they spend the money as I thought it could be enough for a typical person to last for many years of many bills and expense, but well, not today though. I think today everyone, no limited to millenias are highly in debt, old or young all have debt.

I believe everyone should come across the name during their usual internet routine everyday, it has no value until late 2011, it is when the first time I know about its exist, and I got to know it associated with some drug money however since then I try to find out more info but to no availed to how to get one, I don't even know mining and any software, I first thought it was some kind of money just like PayPal, or some in game currency, and I started to monitor the price since 2013 when the smartphone are easily to obtain and some app, I'm still not able to get some of them, it's just too hard for me to get them, of course I'm not gonna sell drug for bitcoin to get some of it, you know it will land me to jail immediately. Well then I read the history of exchange hack and everything to find out how some of them could bought it legally, it's kinda funny through. And I believe those earlier adopter must be some kind of nerd of the nerds who are so tech savvy that only very selected few that come from the outer world could bought it legally.

That certainly look bad for losing a unit. I believe most people would treat their house as the biggest investment in their life, that sound like the 2008 are caused by housing bubble, but I doubt it's the same like 2018, obviously I could feel something special in 2018, I believe the crypto bubble are nowhere near the 2008, a peer of mine bought a condo unit few years ago, between 2016, I think they're buying it during the peak too, now they're telling me their unit are dropping in price by roughly 30% below their purchasing price, they're now making loss for their unit, and itsnt cheap too, they bought near to 1m dollar price which is three fold higher than equivalent unit decade ago, but I don't feel they're the same worry just like 2008, or it would need to take another few years, say 2020 to feel the same depression again? Well I hope it didn't come back too.

It's no doubt we are after a human being who depend on symbiosis relationship to survive the other day, to survive we need to extract any values from the other folk, and money become a good medium to transfer value from you to me, but once the values are completely extracted like what we have today that 99% of money belong to the richest, or equally to 99% of all your value are extracted, force to survive with 1% value for the rest of the life, it's when symbiosis relation become inequality, it become a predatory relationship, and revolution will be followed to destroy that predatory relationship between human being. And I believe bitcoin are the key to the revolution.


I have no idea the situation in the Venezuela, but I believe very few of them are tech savvy too.

Rent seeking behavior has been practiced since the beginning of the civilization. It is no doubt the bank play a major role in making it a success. I have always think about one article from the other author, it is describing as the bitcoin success will lead us into the negative  economy growth, the medieval age, and even fear mongering of the collapse of economy will lead us back to cowboy age, and followed by a number of terrifying stats about the life of the cowboy age, Im wondering if the economy are usually driven by technology innovation, could bitcoin and its mining rigs, products not consider to be a tech that could contribute to the economy?

2008/2009 feel like very special year for me, I could feel all the people around me are very different compare to before, they have a lot of worries, I overheard one of my respected senior talking about their worry about their pension, worry about the future generation, worry about their job security, a lot of worry, but as a millennial I have no clue why they're so worry about them.
To flash back it today, I'm still unable to understand all their worries, it may be the reason of age-gap, the one age group that felt stronger came from the older generation.

Well, I would like you to describe what's your feeling about 2008 and why it is so special compare to any other year like 2009,2010,2011 etc.

Also bitcoin was born in this particular year, the emotion must be so strong that it drive Satoshi to finally decide to do it.

I don't think it is anything to do with risk, we are dealing with a currency, just like Japanese yen, rupee etc, and this currency is bitcoin, I don't have any problem to hold many kind of different currencies, and I don't really care about the exchange rate all the time, even if the JPY are going to slide 10-20% tomorrow I would care nothing about it because it is just a currency after all, why would I need to busily exchanging my foreign currencies all the time?

Risk aversion may work for risky asset/investment, I don't think it is the same for currency, we don't have any feel to currency fluctuation, it is all about something else.
