I'm sad, I don't see bitcoiners anymore. Everybody only talk about money, money and money. When I begun in 2012, I remember a lot of people talking about to figh against banksters and centralizations. Satoshi were our god and their ideals our bible but now Money is the god and I'm the atheist in the middle of this church full of newbies, haters, dumbs and greeddy's people.
Where are them?

These were dumb people not understanding that bitcoin was a governmental project to implement virtual currency to the world. Now bitcoin is going to be accepted everywhere soon which will be the start of virtual currency which bankers waited for decades.

Sometimes I think that theory, but at least we were trying to fight the banks and talking about it. Bitcoin had could be something good, but we forgot that we are f*cking humans.

Firstly what is so bad about the banks. I know how they are pretty annoying at times but they are the backbone of our markets and we wouldn't be so developed without them. How do you think you would be able to bug a house if mortgages didn't exist since you killed the banks? In 2012 not that much people knew about bitcoin, so what would they do of banks closed, would you force them to use bitcoin?

You definitely brought a good subject to discuss. I personally believe that the real bitcoiners are the early adopters, It's not that the other people aren't but early adopters invested in bitcoin even though the price was so low and there was zero indications that the price will actually reach +2000$ in the future, they trusted bitcoin and they liked it for offering what banks couldn't.

Your right that people just care about the money side only but what I dont understand is what gives bitcoin that money value is it being decentralised.
If its not decentralised then its not worth any high money value correct?
If bitcoin becomes centralised then someone can increase the inflation supply from 21million to 21billion meaning at this point everyone in the world including babies can have 7 bitcoins each at least. How much will each bitcoin be worth then? 7cents?
So if bitcoin value becomes 7 pennies will people still care about money side or true decentralisation? When bitcoin reaches that low stage it is too late and impossible to change centralisation status back to original decentralised status.

These walls are kind of funny. First you hate ’em, then you get used to ’em. Enough time passes, gets so you depend on them. That’s institutionalized. - Red We people generally have an institutionalized relationship with the banking system. Bitcoin wasn't meant to take the banking system head on, but to give a choice to the people who want to get out of this institutionalized state and that is happening. The more people use it, the banking system gets more weaker. Bitcoiners have the choice and they are making use of it to take out the banks in an indirect way. Some bitcoiners are a bit busy helping the banksters get hold of a centralized bitcoin network.

Thats a smart question and if you would read a bit about real economical news you would know that the plan is to bind the virtual currency with a real and limited asset so the creation of new coins will be limited

They are around. You shouldn't confuse altcoiners with Bitcoiners, even though these terms are not mutually exclusive. A huge influx of people who flock to altcoins do not care about any fundamental values, especially not those set by Satoshi. They have come here solely because of their own greed. They are often very uneducated as well and tend to shill the foulest shitcoins.
Another example of greedy Bitcoiners, regardless of the date that they've joined the ecosystem, are those (see XT, Classic, BU, Bitcoin ABC) that want to centralize the network for a bit more throughput. I'm sad, I don't see bitcoiners anymore. Everybody only talk about money, money and money.
You are looking at the wrong place. Then again, this forum has become a shithole of spammers and greedy inferior creatures. If bitcoin becomes centralised then someone can increase the inflation supply from 21million to 21billion meaning at this point everyone in the world including babies can have 7 bitcoins each at least.
No. That would only be possible if it were fully centralized (which will never happen) and even then, that's the equivalent of stabbing yourself in the foot.

The real bitcoiners have already given up, since they have released how futile it would be for them to destroy the banks. The first investors would include people who probably just liked the idea of decentralization and invested when bitcoin was only a couple of cents and had no chance of going anywhere. We can't live without centralisation since people have been living on that idea for thousands of years.

People need to realize banks are not the enemy per se. What I mean is I know some people who work in bank and they are very nice people who are not evil. At least I don't see them as evil. Every business wants to make a profit. Since it deals with money, banks can get a bad rap if they are ruthless. The problem is unchecked and unregulated profit seeking is what is killing our society.
Banks do bad things because they know they can get away with it. Any business would in my opinion. We need to control that through government oversight and regulations.

Ok you say bitcoin is not fully 100% centralised. So what % is bitcoin centralised status now? 10%, 20% 30%? As long its below 50% then i believe it's safer.

Governments have showed they can't be trusted for thousands of years so its best to hand the power back to the people that is decentralisation instead of government centralisation.

It really isn't that simple if you choose to embrace all aspects of Bitcoin. If you abide by the ethos of open source and permissionlessness, you can't then begrudge other developers creating their own clients, even when you disagree with what their goal might be. There's also the issue of developer centralisation and trustlessness, which I've commented on before. It isn't black and white. You can't see other clients as a threat to decentralisation and trustlessness if not having an alternative would result in relying on a different kind of centralisation and trust. Developers can't be all-powerful and you can't force everyone to run the code you prefer. That's not Bitcoin.

the original idea of "bank" is not that bad ... Since I'm big fan of Kurzgesagt – In a Nutshell, channel "Banks are a riddle wrapped up in an enigma. We all kind of know that they do stuff with money we don’t understand, while the last crisis left a feeling of deep mistrust and confusion. We try to shed a bit of light onto the banking system. Why were banks invented, why did they cause the last crisis and are there alternatives? https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fTTGALaRZoc

They are no longer on this forum. Why would they come here anymore? We now have Hero and Legendary accounts posting shit and asking newb questions. Any topic of substance quickly gets pushed to the second page and disappears. Anyway I don't believe that most of those early anti-banksters actually wanted to drive banks completely out of business. I felt that many were just happy with Bitcoin because it allowed them to accumulate wealth outside of the banking system.

yes it is true that bitcoin took the place of the virtual currency in a short time but the one thing that is really bad about the banks is how they are annoying and wasting the time of the people who want to withdraw some money they waste a lot of time on paper formalities. People were not pretty aware of the bitcoin at the start but now they know all about bitcoin and they prefer bitcoin than banks.
