"If in 9 years you can't even buy groceries with this shit"

With no doubt if Bitcoin doesn't change, it will be small, like it is today, and be used in a niche community, or some bright person somewhere may come up with a method to accept Bitcoin for physical goods, and Bitcoin will be worth much more. Ever heard of the lightning network?

I think that the recent problems and rebates will soon die out. One group will come out on top. Any way, the fork doesn't really matter. It's the community behind it and how stable it is.

looking for a signature campaign, dm me for that

No way! I'm still have hopes that bitcoin won't ever die because some people have already put trust on it. I may not be that member for a long time but I believe that there are big chances for bitcoin to improve. People may judge on something but more than anything else, they haven't proven any evidence that makes bitcoin down. As for me, it doesn't need to die instead,it needs support.

Have you heard of debit cards in which you load to buy something using your useless coins? They exist. Thing is, you'll need to use your coins to load up something to buy instead of using them directly. Bitcoins is not the shit. It's just that merchants aren't ready to take the risks yet due to the price fluctuations. Not even thinking of integrating bitpay so no bitcoin purchases.

What use is Bitcoin if in 9 years you cant even buy groceries with this shit

You cant build a business on bitcoin because of the volatility and even if you try to runa business on bitcoin you have to wait forever for a transaction to be sent

whats the point of bitcoin, if you cant do anything with this shit?

If you cant do anything wih bitcoin why are you using it? It has a unique way to use it and think befote you post.

Then go ahead. Seems like you didn't get it. Bitcoin is on the way to make it happen and if you fill yourself with the news circulating around then you won't create this topic and rant like hell. Japan has been initiating it like making use of it all over 100k stores in their country and some airlines and also hotels from other countries are on it. Australia's gonna follow next then if you didn't understand so maybe you leave and see.

Bitcoin is not just a currency any more.It is like a digital gold. You can't take a bar of physical gold to buy something because not any vendor will accept it.
Same applies to bitcoin, you hold it for value and exchange it to Fiat to buy any good or service.

Most likely, as btc demand diminishes along with adjustments that lose btc's initial characteristics and increases in fees. This will make btc no longer loved by everyone and from then btc will probably disappear.I hope this does not happen or happen a long time later.

You are wrong at least on one thing and I will try to show it. There is no need to wait "forever", as you call it, for a transaction to be confirmed because you always have an option to pay a decent fee and your transaction will be confirmed in 30 minutes.

When you are going to make a transaction check this site first https://bitcoinfees.21.co/

You can scroll down to the words "The fastest and cheapest transaction fee is currently ..." and if you pay that fee it's a 90%  chance that your transaction will be confirmed within the range of around 10 to 30 minutes.

For ordinary people a $2 fee might look too big, but if you are running a business that shouldn't be a problem.

it depends, on person to person, and their view on bitcoin., but imho bitcoin is here to stay and it will reach 10k real soon.

and who says there are no business on bitcoin, you should check your sources., there are sites making bank because of bitcoins.,


word of advice, buy as much as you can and while you can.

I think the OP is just venting out his frustrations but in his bid to vent them out he's also stated some factual inaccuracies that I'll like to correct. Like some later commentators were saying Bitcoin transaction fees are now variable and you can opt for what suites you best and at the appropriate fees so I don't see why you're attacking it blindly, secondly I'd like to point out that there are a lot of businesses that have been built in Bitcoin already, let me point the exchanges for example; they are exchanging every day despite volatility and delayed confirmations whatsoever so what do you mean by you can't build a business on it ? Or by your definition of business you mean a grocery store or just a trade of goods and services? Please come again.

I agree with you. I never thought that there are people want Bitcoin to die. I also have an idea like you, it needs support. Bitcoin has changed my life a lot since I start investing Bitcoin. So Bitcoin needn't die, my friend

Well you can, not everywhere but there are places like that.
I wouldn't choose this method of payment tho, its not that convinient.
I treat bitcoin like digital gold, that is best suited for.

You made a hell of a thread.
Now you can go and sell all ypur coins then go back to your life.
Maybe in 9 years you will see bitcoin again. That is if you are still alive.
No one forced you to use it or invest with it.
If something happened to you which includes bitcoin then it is your fault.
Dont blame a thing for nothing. It wont fight back.

Why are you here then?

If you dont trust the system then whats the point on being in this discussion forum.

He is here to earn Bitcoins with his signature, which makes his posting even more crappy.
He has all the rights to be here and just as you are one liner poster usually and have a block list of users which makes you only to respond

To those not on your list which are often newbies, I don't know if you'd die refraining from expressing your opinion?

People are unhappy mate, they have all the rights to be angry because they expected much more than this from Bitcoin.

If Bitcoin lacks the ability to satisfy and adapt itself to the colorful needs of different people with different opinions and

Expectations then who should we blame?

So, if you don’t find something useful then it needs to die? It does not matter that 41 billion dollars are riding on it, make it disappear right? If you don’t like bitcoin then that is your right, but let everyone else to do their business with bitcoin, and take their decisions about it, bitcoin is not perfect but it is definitely a step forward on the right direction.

While it is true that your criticism is bitter and crude, perhaps there is a certain note of truth in your words. However, let's not assume that nothing can be done about it and I am absolutely convinced that there are still many improvements to be implemented and a lot of future to go with bitcoin. I do not like to think negatively about the future of bitcoin because I believe that the most difficult and complex has already been overcome, which was to conceive this revolutionary machinery and put it to run. It is true that on the march has presented some flaws, but the many intelligences that are around this ecosystem will surely find a solution to each of them because no one should let bitcoin die.

I have no doubt that the death of bitcoin would mean to the nascent crypto economy, and I see no compelling reasons to suppose that it could happen soon. I am convinced that we will have bitcoin for many years and decades to come.

I think it needs to die is too going too far, but it does need some serious improvements. I just hope there is a possitive outcome to the scaling wars then we can see real utility from it soon instead of just speculation.

Asspained nocoiner posting yet again with a relatively f r e s h account ready to lecture us on why Bitcoin doesn't work because it doesn't conform to exactly what he wants it to be.
It's not supposed to be any of those things right now because there is not enough demand from local users to justify having stores accept Bitcoin for groceries. It is volatile because there is not enough demand an not enough supply to get it to stabilize, like a free market would experience under most circumstances. There is no waiting forever and it's a meme you're falling for.
Why bother posting if your post if shit?
