Bitcoin is indeed useless. I sold my stash after holding on for a long time. Don't want to be to greedy at the moment because the limited extra bucks to be made before the big bubble burst is just not worth the risk anymore. The titanic will sink no matter what people will tell. There is a lot of noise by people wanting to squeeze that extra $ out of their investment, but in the end the bubble pops. So I've chosen to exit, before the stampede (which will cause a technical crash on itself) Bitcoin = speculation (and part religion), for practical use you need to look at the coins 2.0.
Indeed it is useless for you now Since useless basically means of no use, and Bitcoin is of no use to you after you have already sold all your coins. Moreover, if Bitcoin continues to surge and consistently break ATH's as it has been doing since the beginning of this year, it will be of even less use to you, because all what will be left to you is watch how Bitcoin climbs higher and higher. It is not that Bitcoin is useless on its own, it is more your never realized profits (especially those which you won't earn) that will make it so. Anyway, the shills' club seems to be overcrowded already by now, so you may have to just stick around here for the time being |

Three hundred thousand confirmed Bitcoin transactions per day and growing. That says it all.

Well, using bitcoin only as a payment processor, the current fees are still more convenient for me than other electronic payment processors. Neteller charges me about 2% for each transaction, and a similar amount for Forex conversion. In PayPal the amounts are usually even higher.
It is true the the current fees do not represent the best or worlds for the bitcoin economy, there being so many altcoins handling much lower fees for each transaction out there, but I also hope that something can be done to improve this issue yet.

Absolutely correct, Bitcoin is increasing in investment on a daily basis and so it is not on the way at all to become useless but rather people are developing new ways of using it and integrating it into their businesses. |

for me it is not useless and bitcoin now is proven its function in digital world and used in every country
bitcoin and other cryptocurrencies are now known globally and now increasingly is value.
A useless currency will not be used by everyone, so bitcoin is a very useful money for everyone, it has a great influence on the economic strength of some countries. yes bitcoin is really a very useful currency, it will continue to survive for long long time because still people are giving preference to bitcoin and I am sure that very soon the users of bitcoin will increase more in future, therefore bitcoin is become more useful from time to time. the users of bitcoin will spread out through out the world and will make bitcoin more and more stronger. |

A virtual coin that is valued $2,490 is officially dead. Yes it is officially dead for those people that are suffering regret upon selling their bitcoins too early. It's not useless and instead it is useful to all of us. You just need to know how to use it properly and if you want to have a better way of living, just learn how to become patient and hold it.

Well said.Be patient and learn to wait for the right time if you want to earn more because for sure bitcoin increases its value every passing day.But somehow,we can blame others to be doing like this.In the end,it's their choice and they're responsible for any consequences it may bring. |

Lol i can't believe i see someone who said bitcoin is useless, only because the transaction fee is high?
Bitcoin sure, is useful for me. It really help me to earn more money quite easily. And i don't really mind with the transaction fee because i rarely use bitcoin to buy something, i prefer keeping them.
Yes it's true that bitcoin is quite much about speculation, but what's for sure the price has been increasing until now, and it actually profitable to keep your bitcoin and sell that later.
If you complained about the fee, why not try to save your bitcoin like me? Or learn other way to use bitcoin that may give you even more money so you won't even complain about it anymore because you're rich already.

Just because experiencing a normal problem in bitcoin you will say that it is useless and dead? where's the faith in bitcoin?
We need to understand as the difficulty increases, miners need to adjust the fee and as well with the price increase scenario.
We are computing base on the price of bitcoin and not with the quantity of bitcoin which is being set by them as fee.

I agree.Bitcoin has become our buddy the moment we started it.So if any normal problem arise,is it proper to just put bitcoin as a dead investment and useless?I supposed we should be sympathetic instead.Sympathetic in the sense that we should understand its rising and depreciating value in some times.Bitcoin is not that perfect to be consistently growing.It may have also its ups and downs. |

Bitcoin is very useful, maybe you do not understand bitcoin so call it useless. If you understand bitcoin you will never say bitcoin is useless. Many uses of bitcoin, for some people bitcoin saves them from poverty and makes their families live worthily

Do you think if someone made a profit from bitcoin and then they say bitcoin is useless? It is ridiculous, only those who do not use the new bitcoin think it's useless. |

With transaction costs rising above $1 the original promise of cheap remittance using Bitcoin is officially dead. Without utility Bitcoin use is limited to speculation only and even further what is there to speculate about?
I would like to debate this and gauge the community's response to Bitcoin experiment.
Thats was just a normal thingbi guess bitcoin is increasing rapidly so the transaction fee will also increases and that was really normal in the cryptocurrency i guess so maybe bitcoin is not useless we already using it in many things and also using it to make a great profit or income. |

And he is complaining with the fee that is really changing because of the price fluctuation. I understand his complain but we can do something about it by adjusting the fees. But if you will set the fee lower expect the confirmation will take it longer. So the higher the fee, the faster confirmation. |

Bitcoin is definitely not useless as OP claims it to be; yes, the fees are getting really high but I'm confident there will be a change in the way transactions work very soon (which hopefully will drop the mad fees)
Well here is where the problem lies, what if the current impasse between segwit and BU or bigger blocks doesn't lead to a real solution. In this scenario if bitcoin keeps rising in price so will the transaction fees and I wouldn't be surprised to see them go to above $10 per transaction, something which would ruin 90%+ of the current usage of bitcoin. |

It is supposed to hasten the confirmation time so higher fees is not needed anymore. But you are right, there is still a possibility that it is not the solution and high fees may come back. We have to trust the devs to find a new solution if these ones won't work. |

I don't know about you, I don't know about fun, but profits do matter a lot to me personally. Maybe, you are a multimillionaire (though I doubt), so you could hypothetically claim that profits mean nothing to you. But that would be even more suspicious since millionaires know a lot and care a lot about profits. And it is certainly not the case for the majority of players here |
