Yes or No?    Doesn't Bitcoin unfairly benefit early adopters?
I don't think so, we are both equally benefited today besides we are all doing our efforts to earn here. It's just that the value of bitcoin is on fire today, maybe because it is being recognized and some legalized it in their countries.
On my opinion, No its never been unfair to those early adopters. Lets say, the early adpoters have enough money to invest like millions to invest for sure they can earn more compare to those old bitcoiners. Well, it depends the status of each and everyone of us but the most important thing we already know about bitcoin, hoping we earn more so that we can step up a little bit on our income and more profit in the future.

Agree, not all early adopters of bitcoin benefited from it. Those who benefits are those who believe and who invest more. I think it's the traders who benefited more with bitcoins. They buy when its down and sell when its up. So still it's not unfair.

I dont understand why you are thinking its unfair. Well early investors deserved to earn for taking the risk in time where there is no assurance of profit gain because at that time btc is young to get trust from investors.

The existence and success of bitcoin can also be credited to the early users who believe in it. Even we turn back the time, i think it will be hard for me to trust this currency because i dont know whats ahead, indeed regrets are felt when its just too late.

It's not unfair for the early bitcoin adopters to earn great amount of income because they deserve it for being a believer of Bitcoin even in its early creation although they didn't know then what will happen in the future of bitcoin. I just regret that i didn't have the chance to know the bitcoin before. But still its not too late, if we believe now, we can be the that early adopters in the future.

I don't see any reason why you think it is unfair for the early adopters. What I think about them is they are the "lucky ones" and I am sure most of the people here know the reason why. Even though BTC rates are really small in the early times, early adopters are very lucky to jump in the Bitcoin bandwagon as this currency's value moves a lot. Can't imagine how "rich" those early adopters nowadays  Grin

Right. It's not their fault that they had the guts to get in to something gat unsure before. Its all about having the guts to gamble. People who regret not getting into bitcoin when they had the chance probably would see it unfair but its not.

I went for NO because its just a payment for their loyalty at a time where anyone of us would not have touched bitcoin even though we might know about it. If anyone of thme is cahing the millions now, then its because he / she took the risk when the decision was not a popular one. And we should even be thanking them in addition to what they have already because without them believing, then there wont be any bitcoin for us to meet at this time.

Nope just because your an early adopter in bitcoin doesn't mean you can benefit from it you need some capital, funds to make big profits in bitcoin earning through sig campaigns and bounties is a long hard way but if you have millions of capital to invest then you can big returns also with a potential risk cause any investment that requires large investment has also risk.

Knowing a few people were the first to get and support bitcoin, no matter if curiosity or a real investment into it, the fact is they had used bitcoin and spread away about it, without this people bitcoin could had die as several projects wich hasnt any kind of support. I doubt the most early adopters still with bitcoin nowadays, they had sold all in the past, they can had returned again to bitcoin but well, the true is anybody can get bitcoin, but will have to pay a tiny extra for the value and potencial it has.

My answer will be a NO . Bitcoin is not partial and has never been unfair . The early investors saw some potential in bitcoin when bitcoin was nothing . Bitcoin was known to no one and no one even tried to show their interest in bitcoin . This was the time when early investors adopted bitcoin and invested in bitcoin . Even if someone invests in bitcoin now, bitcoin will not be unfair to them . The thing is that bitcoin is very expensive now that is why old investors benefited before when bitcoin was of very  negligible value.

Yes or No?    Doesn't Bitcoin unfairly benefit early adopters?
It depends to the person who knew bitcoin. It is because even if a person knew bitcoin early but doesnt do anything to improve his/her knowledge and skills in bitcoin, nothing will happen to him. But if a person who suddenly knew bitcoin for a while and exert great effort and time to master and maximize his/her knowledge about bitcoin, i think they will become more successful than those who knew bitcoin first.

Definitely no. Regardless of an individual knowing bitcoin ever since it started, the opportunities it provides are open to all social status of people. The first investors of bitcoin are definitely enjoying right now due to the risk they have taken when it first started. Take note, the prices before were less than ~$100 and they managed to conquer the risks of it. Early adopters of bitcoin are also on the same track, considering the price increasing as the years passed. One day we might see bitcoin reaching the $10,000; now is the perfect time to invest especially when the fork hits, expect prices to decrease.

It is easy to say that unfairly or fairly benefit for the early adopters. One thing we have to accept that how much risk they had taken by trusting bitcoin if they wont take that risk might we not able to even think about bitcoin so I will not say unfairly bitcoin benfit early adopters.

No, early investor take the risk when bitcoin is basically nothing. They stick with it years until now and they are rewarded for their loyalty by owning a lot of bitcoin. It's a different matter investing something that already big compared to the one that just started.
Why not mate? Bitcoin for me is the everything because the value and he price of the bitcoin is enough for the life and I know the bitcoin will give us the best source of the money making I hope in the future I will have the bitcoin and I will hold for the long time this will be the best saving ever because now the value of the bitcoin is increasing more and more for the future profit and the income from the bitcoin only.

You can only blame yourself for not trusting bitcoin at the early stages like they did but here is the thing, If you buy now, wait a few years until we get mass adoption, you will be considered as an early adopter as well.
Correct, not even 1% of the human population has adopted bitcoin, if bitcoin reaches wide adoption and you hold your coins you have now until that point, then the ones claiming it was unfair will be the ones that got in late, in fact we are also early adopters even if it does not seem like it because of the high price of bitcoin, this should show to us the incredible potential bitcoin has and the enormous price it is going to reach in the future.

It is anything but difficult to state that unreasonably or decently advantage for the early adopters. One thing we need to acknowledge that how much hazard they had taken by trusting bitcoin in the event that they wont go for broke may we not ready to try and consider bitcoin so I won't state unjustifiably bitcoin benfit early adopters.

You should better think of your money rather than envy those who was faster. I think those who were first are worth all the benefits, arent' they?

Bitcoin is not some kind of airdrop, where early users will get more benefit than rest. Early users who have invested at right time are enjoying better returns when market rises moreover Bitcoin price is highly dependent upon demand factor so over the time as demand rises price will rise that's why it is advisable to invest in Bitcoin as early as possible to get maximum returns.

No early bitcoin adopter has take a risk they did not expect that bitcoin price will go as high as $7000 usd it was just fair to them to give them the benefit of their actions , not all has taken the risk there was just actually few people who believe and they are taking there harvest now , I believe it's still not too late to invest on bitcoin today , If you want to benefit from bitcoin take a risk now and harvest your fruits later !
There is a famous quotation that “If you to go for something big then you have to think big”. I must say that bitcoin is giving an edge to the ones who are having it since the time it was introduces t this world but there is nothing unfair in it.

Those people actually believe in bitcoin at the time when no one out of us was even knowing about bitcoin. This is just a small gift from bitcoin to them.
