the banks were good in past to protect our money then they just made plans to use lend our money and get a fee ,if i wanna go bank i must wait 1 hour if not more just to make some direct deposit or to talk to manager of the account .. with bitcoin  i can lend my money the same way ask a loan and well i believe bitcoin will and already is the best way to save money from problems that is affecting all countries.... sure there is a risk but pretty sure that is better get something then the banks bankrupt and lost all.... already happened.... financial system only allow to politicians to steal our money .... corruption... not investing on education roads ,there is soo many things that must be done  but they just dont wanna know.... better get rich in a year then make some to all people use....

Ya but the multinational banks will never get bankrupt and your money is safe in the bank thats what I believe. But yes you can get rid of standing in a queue to make the deposits you can get rid of the paper work that the banking system involves so I would generally prefer using bitcoin to get rid of traditional banking system for sure.

At the first glance I know bitcoin as an ordinary currency that will just blowing like wind.
I can't imagine that bitcoin ever reach $ 1000. I'm surely regret for not owning bitcoin. But as we know there are some people that really buy bitcoin with a huge amount on the day when bitcoin was early develop. And yes as we can expect that those people become rich for instant.
So for now, I'm earning bitcoin and I will try to hold it so "$1000 / btc " will happen again on the future. ( hope just getting higher )

I think banks will exist forever. Even if the world went 100% Bitcoin which is the ideal scenario of course.. there would still be a big market of banks for the people that don't have the nerve to store their own wealth and want someone else to do the job. Even if personally I think it defeats one of the main purposes of Bitcoin, it's a legitimate option.

An alternative to paypal in the way of not getting charged back! Otherwise, a good currency that can be made all over the internet and in some cases, tax free!

it is a great way to play, specially if you are into gambling , you can find a lot of options and a lot of different gambling websites to go there and gamble away some bitcoin for fun.
but i don't see bitcoin as a wasting my time,

Weak hands have been complaining about missing out ever since bitcoin was $1 and never buy the dip.
Whales are those who keep buying the dip.

First for me was to get rich quick but now its more to leave the banking system. I'm not sure if you can get rich anymore with bitcoin, maybe after years ahead, but shit nobody got time to wait so long except teens.

Actually I look at bitcoin as not gambling. It's a bit risky but it's my way of earning extra for my family and for our needs. I've earned a lot from it and it saved my family many times from loaning especially when my baby was admitted in the hospital. It helps a lot. It's also fun to play with bitcoin.

well if you can earn big money in the end, i won't call it a waste of time, it is a matter of perspective and luck, like in everything

i don't like to call something that i'm doing, waste of time, otherwise i would not do it ever...it is like wasting your time on purpose, a bit stupid...
