Whether you feel bitcoin has a role or not (it has already proven that imo), it's about supply and demand, and the demand is there.

[Scorpion]

Tell that to the millions of users utilizing the network now, and thousands maybe hundreds of thousands of people who already are grateful for the money they've made and saved because the important of Bitcoin's store of value.

[Argoo]

The fact that bitkoyn does not play any role in the real world, such a statement does not correspond to reality. Bitkoyn now has a strong influence on the economy of most countries. China even recognized bitcoin as a threat to the economy of its country. For bitkoyn it is possible to buy now almost everything, having paid directly to them as a means of payment, or before transferring it to fiat. Therefore, we can not assume that it does not affect the real world in any way.

bitcoin has a role in the real world, many people are attracted to bitcoin because, with bitcoin, they can invest their money and earn much money in the future. and if we compare with a year ago, people which already have much of bitcoin now can cash out their bitcoin and their money is double now or even triple.

so many people going to buy bitcoin now because they learn from the past and they don't want to miss the time to earn more profit in future especially today they price is dropped significantly and they can buy much of bitcoin. although it is only a few people can buy 1 bitcoin but at least, we can buy bitcoin with separately and save the bitcoin for a long time investment.

I don't think that people which invest their money will think too deep about the privacy. they only think about the investment value that bitcoin offers so they buy bitcoin, save it for a long term, cash out when the price is higher.

[fianaindriati]

Yes it does. Anyone who says Bitcoin/crypto doesn't have any use in the real world is straight up lying or doesn't know what they are talking about. It has many uses and people use it every day to pay for almost anything.

bitcoin does have a role in the real world, for example from the role of bitcoin is, bitcoin can help people whose economy is quite difficult. this time the world economy is greatly increasing and the world of unemployment is also increasing. but with the existence of bitcoin you can be helped in the world economy.
so I think bitcoin is enough to have a role for life.

[gigatux]

Bitcoin has a role in life. it actually saves lives for those who are unemployed. It is actually very timely and relevant in my  country. There's no need to talk about this actually cause obviously bitcoin has helped a lot of people and it will continue to help and prove people that it has a worth. I'm sorry but I disagree with your statement. especially when it is already 2 to 4 years from now the income that we can get to bitcoin might be quadruple or triple.

[MD Milon]

Now lot of people engaged with bitcoin.so many people  use bitcoin.many people send money across the world by use bitcoin.positively bitcoin play strong role to change world.

[KevinHD]

That is a perspective of a pessimist about bitcoin. Bitcoin, a very well known crypto currency, has more of its advantages and disadvantages. In terms of how it is helpful in real world, having a single of it would be a great way in making you financially free. No more unemployment, because you can employ yourself on gaining bitcoins. It could buy you anything you want in real world despite of the fees and taxes. It can also be use as a payment method which is much better when you will bought online products and services. Lastly, by the means of trading, it could make a a third world country up to the top class, ending its poverty.

So why doubting the importance of bitcoin in real world?

[bitfocus]

In the age when people used to trust only gold and used gold as money, suddenly the paper money came and only a few trusted it. But now, every economy is paper money economy - nobody uses golds or silvers to buy goods, right? Same with cryptos. Just tell me, where are we heading - toward a tech-less world or toward an ultra-high-tech world?

if your answer is "toward a tech-less", please see some therapist.
if your answer is "toward an ultra-high-tech world" - you really need to stop hating Bitcoin just out of ego and the cure is very simple, just read and learn about cryptos.

[rikybrosh]

Now lot of people engaged with bitcoin.so many people  use bitcoin.many people send money across the world by use bitcoin.positively bitcoin play strong role to change world.

Yes. Many people use bitcoin as online payment option because some of them are have many problem with remittance agencies like paypal. Paypal can freeze your account the amount that you can send is limited. Bitcoin is the best payment option and the best investment.

BTC has no role to play in the real world affairs. People who try to create such a role are confused between asset and currency. The design itself only considers pure virtual activity with no touch with real world. People also mistake the buzz words such as "peer-to-peer", "border-less", "decentralised" etc as the problems to be solved. But sadly these are not real problems. The insignificant problems (speed and fees) are hardly enough to sell and these problems are going away anyway. I have no respect to Nakamoto because he ignored the most important element (govt and authorities) in social situation and still want to sell it as some solution to social situations. Hardly any country has regulatory framework that deals with btc.

The problems are rooted in the philosophy of crypto, not in the code. So, the beauty of blockchain tech is irrelevant for btc. It is like selling a bad app by showing how great Android is.

1) Bitcoin does not provide controlled visibility, because it doesn't recognise the existence of governments. Now if you make changes to provide visibility to authorities, ALL privacy is gone. If you don't, then ALL visibility is gone.

2) Fees are rooted in the design. Whatever consensus you invent for a public blockchain, you can't escape rewarding the work of validating transactions. So zero fees are not possible.

Public blockchains sacrifice all good qualities of a business application for the sake of trust-less environment which is not even actually a problem to solve in many contexts. Also they make it extremely costly to run small amount of code or small storage. Who wants their business code to be validated by all arbitrary people in the world?

Most ICOs are sharing economy concepts similar to uber model. Lack of a responsible intermediary and costs will make these "innovations" to fail, if they ever have to touch real-world activities.

Bulk of the blockchain activity will move to business collaborations which might not even look like a blockchain. Crypto coins will be used in most business blockchains, but these coins will be value-less tokens and very specific to the business or institutional activity.

I dont agree with you mate that bitcoin has no role in the real world because bitcoin changes the life of all people who believes in btc.Jobless person can be hired in this forum if that person have skills and get paid.Being here is like having a job that i dont have to deal with rude attitude of bosses and i own my time.Some bitcoiners pays their transaction through bitcoins without any hassle.So i can really say that it has role to play in the real world.

bitcoin is playing a very good role in the real world. bitcoin is changing the life of so many people that are working hard with bitcoin. Bitcoin is changing the idea of the people for the transfer of money from one corner of the world to another because the transfer of the bitcoin is very cheap tax and is very easy way to transfer even from your bedroom to all over the world.

yes, it is true bitcoin is playing a very big role in countries and especially in third world countries bitcoin have a very great performance because in these countries bitcoin bring revaluation and a lot of people are changing their life just because of bitcoin some of them have started daily trade and some of them are doing investment here so all the people are very happy from bitcoin and they are supporting as well they wish they bitcoin must be legal in their country.

[vicvicto17]

How come? Bitcoin help me to send money accross the globe. The disadvantage of bitcoin is the transaction fee and people believe the price of bitcoin will skyrocket because governments wants to adopt bitcoin has digital currency so in the long run cryptocurrency will be use as digital payment.

[Bruno77]

It is not true because bitcoin has a big role in our world. For example, it can help in our financial needs and can help us to earn money. But not everyone are using bitcoin so they can't really know how important it is. If you don't believe that bitcoin has its own role in our real world, that your choice.

[Mr_fruitProbit]

No. Bitcoin have role in real world it using as digital gold and as currency when people transferring money from one county to another country without goverment the main problem for bitcoin is high ridicolous fee

[desmodiAN]

bitcoin has a growing role. it will never vanish again, its a revolution. people are in charge, not one market controller:
todays roles are:
+investment
+clearing vehicle (for exchanging currencies / goods)
+democratized / crowd network
+modern mining
+technology alife. its not a whitepaper that has no proof of work. its out since 2009. millions using it.

maybe someday the daily payments will be added to this list, but it needs to
+stablize price
+be transferrable with low fees
+vendors/markets need seemless integration
+more legal status in countries

a lot of foundation will be done in lightning network. the rest is to us. ASK all your vendors to integrate the payment with bitcoin/litecoin/ether.
DONT wait. ask.

[adadaorlina]

The needs of a person in real life are true, and bitcoin is one of the medium to meet some things we need, So i might say bitcoin has a role in a real world.

[CryptoVance]

No wonder why you are still newbie, you have a lot to learn from bitcoin. If you know what real concept of bitcoin you won't be pointing whether its asset or currency. 

[Barcode_]

Bitcoin have already proven itself to investors and the wide range of users who uses it as a payment option worldwide that it have indeed have an important role on the real world in future, it also serves as another alternative options for investors to invest too.

[Clos Belmont ICO]

Bitcoin does have a role in the real world because people  use it everyday. They use it for saving and they use it for spending. Investing even or accepting it for goods and services, etc.

Bitcoin has a huge impact on our society, it seems to me this impact will grow even more
