Why I hate 90% of Bitcoin investors

[catapult]

There is no doubt the blockchain is maybe the most innovative thing in the history of economy so far. But I think it is not logic that, blaming the people because of their desires to earn money. This is the human nature and the most percentege of the coin traders are always aiming to make more profit by using the cryptocurrencies.

Most people that investing bitcoin now, are just investing to make money. It annoys the hell out of me. 90% of people haven't read the white paper! Don't even know why decentralisation is a good thing! Don't know why the blockchain is such a revolutionary invention! It annoys me so much! These people just invest because they want to "get rich quick".

And the annoying thing is that if someone had told me about bitcoin 6 years ago, I still would have put all of my money into it. Unfortunately I'm only 16 so I didn't know ANYONE (when I was 9) that would tell me about bitcoin. I only just heard of it 7 months ago and henceforth, have become OBSESSED with crypto. Now I've dropped out of school for crypto and it really does my nut in when all I hear is "Bitcoin to $10K!", "Bitcoin to $20k!".

Deep down I actually hope that the bubble (yes it is a mini-bubble) pops after the Segwit fork and that the price goes back down to $2k. That way all of these stupid investors can suck their thumbs and get taught a lesson. 90% of these people also would have said bitcoin was a scam 9-15 months ago but now look at them. They run around like fucking idiots screaming "BLOCKCHAAINN!!!", "DECENTRALISATIONNNN!!!".

Smh.

Rant over.

I think you're making assumptions here. How do you know 90% of investors just want to make profits? what makes you think they don't believe in Bitcoin as a decentralized system for payments or an asset to invest in? Instead of jumping into conclusions with your immature personal feelings, why don't backup your words with an actual source, analysis and data.

And how is that a bad thing to Bitcoin? if people are throwing money at what they think is good a invesment, wouldn't that actually help Bitcoin to pump the price? who cares what other people do with their money? who cares if they want to get rich? what they're doing is actually good for BTC: to go mainstream, mass-adoption, Bitcoin as a payment method, etc.
Seriously kid, this rant makes you sound like you're just jealous that you won't be able to get rich like those people will be in the future.
 
Also, did you actually dropped out of school for crypto or this is just trolling? because if you did, that's a BIG mistake, you're going to regret that decision for the rest of your life. Also, if you didn't finish school, aren't you doing the same thing as those people? putting your hopes and dreams in a cryptocurrency? what makes you so different?

Do youself a favor and go back to school, you don't wanna end up living under a bridge.

I hate to break this to you but its not only investors that haven't read the bitcoin white paper, the average joe is on the same boat too and nothing can be done to make them read it. And I believe people have been introduced to bitcoin as a way to make a quick profit when in the actual sense it was suppose to be an alternative payment method that gives us the financial freedom and privacy.

[degaga15]

do not get mad at the current invrstor, because if they do not exist, then the bitcoin price will come back down, I understand your long feeling here, and they are now the rest of the join as the price goes up. the patient, when the price goes up, someday it will come down.

[Vaflia]

Most people wants to earn lots of money how easier are they to blame for it?

[Willitivity]

C'mon buddy, everyone is in it for the money. Bitcoin was supposed to be a an online currency, but no one cares about that, all we see is speculations. To most people, Bitcoin is a means of passive income, nothing else.

[thinair]

Yes! You make money while still in profit.

Prior to the year 2000 NASDAQ tech bubble, everyone was making money.

[Sachinist]

Rome was not built overnight, democracy was not achieved overnight, racial equality was not achieved overnight. Infact, I would say that even now democracy and racial equality have not been truly attained in most of the world. Fiscal freedom will also not happen overnight.

In our evolution as a race, we've made a lot of mistakes in every facet of our lives and gradually integrated them into our collective consciousness as the status quo. Having accepted these mistakes as the norm for generations upon generations, we've ourselves created a resistance to change often too great to overcome. Hence, revolutions become so much harder to actuate.

Blockchain is revolutionary but there is no revolution as yet. As long as we have internet, it cannot be quelled but it will take time for a lot of people to come around to the idea. Most of our world is used to being told what to do, being told what is right from mainstream mass media. This is just our cross to bear.

Blockchain revolution needs a selfless and suasive leader, an impassioned orator like Gandhi or MLK to inspire and enlighten the masses. Only then, this revolution can be set in motion.

[AndriyPilipyak]

a lot of people hate them because go envy

[asdlolciterquit]

I think is pretty naive hope that the crypto revolution will happen without all this stream of money.
Look, btc now is on tv or newspaper because the price!

We need that kind of people!

[Lipe490]

I don't think that anybody who joined the bitcoin wanted something with its descentralization or blockchain thing. I don't know anybody who didnt make some profit with bitcoin, and with the altcoins growing each day more, this is a good chance to be rich or even have a decent incoming, with good earning and I don't see the problem with that. Bitcoin can't solve all the problems, that's why we have a lot of altcoins.

I completely understand your frustration, and I am sad to say I can relate. Unfortunately people that have come to the cryptocurrency space recently only care about money. The don't give a f** about the revolution or the tech. That makes me very sad myself. Cryptocurrency has become 90% speculation and 10% tech. All I want to say is that don't give up. Let's continue educating the masses, one person at a time. I must say, for a person your age. You are very quite mature.

[killerfrost]

Yes, it was all a scam and a lie, no one believed in Bitcoin's development but then they invested in it. They say they hate Bitcoin, they hate decentralization, they hate virtual currency but it's still growing and so many people invest in it. Is this a scam? They want to make a profit while Bitcoin prices drop because of fluctuations, most people find bitcoins because they want to get rich quick, that can happen or they will not have anything.

[xskl0]

Do you support Bitcoin Cash? Is just the original one but maybe less atractive to investors

[stompix]

You hate the human nature.
This is what you basically said.

Who cares about the whitepaper when your rent must be paid tomorrow.
Who cares about decentralization when your girlfriends is looking at your best friend car....

You said 90..
I will say 99% and I might be wrong by 1%.

Probably the 2010 2012 period was nicer, there was also less spam around here, people where talking about how to use the coin not how to hoard it...but it's always like that.In the end we all have needs and dreams and utopians future are not filling you up.

Oh really?
Do you know Gavin was giving away full bitcoins for free for anybody that wanted to test how bitcoin works?
He gave away 1300 btc in one swoop with his faucet.

[paloloy]

Well, you just can't feel hate to investors because it's their money they tend to do what makes them get profits in any ways.
The less Bitcoin circulated is the more high value because Bitcoin is still the intangible thing in the world that is the most expensive.
Getting and earning Bitcoin is very hard this days so investors are still keeping their money just to make profit and wait a longer time until maybe Bitcoin will drop continually.

[ahtremblay]

well, your opinion is not wrong. But what? haha. Everything happens in a natural way. Whales and Sharks pump the price. The profit is too big, who can wait for a research? This is business, it means the soon you join, the more profit you get. If not, you will lose your chance. And you have to accept risk. 

[Crypto_trader87]

You shout out all youhr opinion but you dont have all the right to judge all people that investing in bitcoin they have the right on what they should do in there own money you cant control them base on your thinking they have there own reasons too why they invest in bitcoin in the first place. Good luck you sir

[wantjokull]

Dont worry its not only you who was curious about investing the money into bitcoin back 6 years ago. Now is the time which is running and you should make your decision depending on this situation and not the one which was ages ago. Bitcoin is developing fast and the popularity for it is growing very very fast which means another lot of investor will pump the bitcoin prices to the sky. If this continues to next two to fives years then I bet you that bitcoin price would be 50K and can be higher. Its rate of growing is really growing year after year and thats why its best of all while making investment. So you won’t be regretful after few years from now as you can still choose to invest into it.

[khaled0111]

I think you should go back to school and learn more about economy and finance. The only reoson that make Bitcoin survive is those people investing in cryptocurrency. Besides, it is not wrong to make money it's all about money these days. If the price of Bitcoin, after 9 years, remain the same, you think there will be anyone interested in it!
