I am sorry for that but you can not say that bitcoin is a scam just because of what you have experienced. Bitcoin is not a scam.

The reasons you have given are not enough to call it a scam. Bitcoin's success and its shortcomings are the major reasons why all the other coins exist in the first place, so calling it a gimmick means the other coins are also gimmicks.

Exchanges getting hacked, banks also get robbed should we also blame the dollar for the banks getting robbed? 

[filharvey]

Bitcoin's price is surging high due to wall street companies entering it and the very high media exposure its getting nowadays.

I don't know which sites have problem in sending and receiving bitcoins.

Exchanges getting hacked could not be mentioned as a problem of bitcoin.If only bitcoins in our wallet gets hacked,we could see it as a serious issue.

With lightning network soon to be activated,all the transaction problems would get solved.

[BobBct]

BITCOIN is NOT a scam coin, The reason is BTC is very very bullish and there is NO proof that BTC is a scam! Yes, there's a bit of people who are making BTC to MLM.

But i think the reason you made this is because your part of a bank or you knew BTC since it started and you thought it is rigged and scam until now. It's your choice if you don't want to be rich.

[chris200x9]

No one forced you to buy bitcoins and it up to an individual because it is their hard earned money so they can decide where they want to invest.

But I don't think that Governments can control these bitcoins because not everyone going to sell so that one or two guys can control bitcoin prices. Now there are plenty of people are holding bitcoins. Since prices went up a lot so we can expect some correction in short-term after all those new features launches.

[DaMut]

i do not think so mate,
because of the jam you said Bitcoin turned into scam coin while basically it did not take anything from you.
the transaction very slow due to traffic and of course the fees itself.
i sent a quite many Bitcoin lately using 100.000 satoshi and i got this for only around 2 hours or less than that.
it's all about the transaction fees and the traffic itself not because of 'Ponzi' or something like that.

many exchanges get hacked,
so what is the relation between Bitcoin and them ?
it's their mistake and their problem with their security not because of Bitcoin.
they get hacked due to hold a lot of Bitcoins in their wallets,
because of that the hacker targeting their system to get a lot of money in return.
it has nothing to do with Bitcoin at all.

yeah there're a lot of coins that can be used to send our money fast,
they fast because not many people use it unlike Bitcoin.
if we're using it,and there're no place to encash it in our local exchanges or international exchanges does that mean it's a scam coin?
because it has zero value.
so it's all about viewer perspective and for me i disagree with your comment

[hasmukh_rawal]

Everything that has happenned looks a scam Firstly the bitcoin is all popular for its decentralization if the decentralization is wiped off bitcoin then who will want to use it and wait several days to receive their GOLD.. It has a problem and the problem in their outdated source has never been able to retrieve And making it now a centralized currency has made bitcoin a failure in terms of its aspects what it promised to be..
I am not buying the idea of thinking it will become 1 million USD when the main motive has been wiped off bitcoin what remains is the cover of a new technology that happens to have issues REST FAILS

Did I just read that right or were you really calling BTC a centralized currency. Who says that Bitcoin transactions are taking over 24 hours ? You should put enough fees to make the transactions done on time. You can call high fees an issue but not delayed transactions as that depends on the amount of fees you put on for the transaction.
For example : you can't just put 10 sats per byte as the fee and wait for your transaction to be confirmed within minutes. I just did a transaction last night and it was done by when I woke up.
The increase in price of BTC is becuase many big investors are buying BTC these days and the fact that supply is limited to 21 million BTC is surging the price more than it should. Stop calling BTC a scam and do a proper research. I do accept that are issues with BTC but then they can be solved with proper attention and support from people.

[EinWert]

I like analitics like you. You dont have any information, but you can say what gonna happen. Lol

[Memenya]

I am sorry for that but you can not say that bitcoin is a scam just because of what you have experienced. Bitcoin is not a scam. 

Correct, anybody can not blame bitcoin as scam just because small thing like this. Its happen because so many transaction are waiting due to many people are using that platform.

[Mattia92]

I guess you opened this topic just beacuse you blame yourself you didn't buy BTC in time and now it's the best asset. And if it's a scam, don't buy it, leave it to us!

Bitcoin is not a scam coin, it's actually the first crypto coin that was created that made use of a blockchain. It's the technique that every other altcoin uses to make their currency decentralized. If you think that Bitcoin is a shitcoin, then you shouldn't use any other coin because these are just copies of Bitcoin. Yes it's true that Bitcoin faces scalability issues but Bitcoin developers have found a solution for it, which currently being developed called the 'Lightning network'. Although you're not right about the altcoins being better because these coins don't have to handle the extreme amount of transactions Bitcoin has. Some coins might have increased the block-size but that doesn't really solve the problem permanently, it's just a way to handle the current flood of transactions temporary. This increase also brings side-effects with it, like more centralization which is basically the opposite of what Satoshi intended his currency to be.

[TIDOVEE]

it is not bitcoin itself that turned into any scam coin, bitcoin cannot hack anyone but people hack bitcoin users account. bitcoin is attractive to hackers, thats why they want it and wouldn't want to do the needful andf i their coveteousness hack bitcoin accounts.

LOL. Are you trying to scare us and not to get bitcoin? Or are you butthurt that you are late getting into bitcoin. How can it be a scam when its been with us for almost a decade now? I agree that transaction are very slow but it can't be the only reason for calling it a scam.

Just go back to your altcoins and enjoy the fastest transaction you can have. But there's no doubt that people are going into bitcoin because of profit. If you don't like profit then what are you doing here? This is a bitcoin forum, then why hate it? I'm sure that you are one paid schill to create FUD here.

Bitcoin transactions maybe slow due to more number of pending transactions but it will be resolved in a day or two,so it is not a good reason to say it is a scam coin,if you think it is scam just stop using bitcoins.Bitcoins price is reaching new high due to the upcoming fork so all the people are selling their altcoin to buy bitcoin which causes demand for bitcoin.
I never faced any problem with bitcoin exchanges and wallets,if your wallet being hacked you need to keep your bitcoins in a software or hardware wallet then it is impossible to hack your wallet.

[bitcoinking11]

It is not a scam coin. But recent upward trend is quite unnatural. Within a month or two, it has gone from 3k-4k to 15k. Nobody expected such an abnormal growth.

[eternalgloom]

Everybody should start using segwit addresses, you'd pay a lot less fees that way.
Also, hopefully lightning network will come pretty soon, then we'll pay even less fees than we are with just segwit addresses.

There are a couple of wallets that support segwit, though I don't think any mobile wallets do yet (IOS & Android) But correct me if I'm wrong.

Here's a short video about using segwit addresses:

You clearly just simply don't know what a "scam" and "ponzi scheme" is. No one is forcing you to buy and or invest in bitcoin, you decided for yourself. Also, how are exchanges getting hacked the fault of bitcoin? Guess what! Banks have been robbed in the past too! Does it mean that fiat is a scam? NOPE! It doesn't sound like you understand the basics of bitcoin either. There are many other coins which has faster transactions? Why are you here then? Go hop on to those coins then!

[shezu007]

Bitcoin's cost is surging high because of divider road organizations entering it and the high media introduction its getting these days.
I don't know which locales have issue in sending and accepting bitcoins.
Trades getting hacked couldn't be specified as an issue of bitcoin.If just bitcoins in our wallet gets hacked,we could consider it to be a difficult issue.
With lightning system destined to be activated,all the exchange issues would get illuminated.

[Souldream]

why you can think bitcoin is a scam. if you are having difficulty in beta transaction instead of bitcoin it is fraud. it can happen because there are obstacles like expensive bitcoin make everyone very much to do transaction. and if many people betransaksi certainly difficult for us to make transactions.

What? Really bitcoin is scam? How come? In my 3 years of actively participating and trading I didn't found out that bitcoin is a scam. Maybe they only had found those scam or not legit groups or pages in online world that they choose to join with. Maybe they didn't make a massve research about bitcoin and they easily just believe for what they readvon some articles. And above all of these unlegit pages is the spread of people telling false news about bitcoin.

Definitely, what my insight about what others perception regarding bitcoin is they have lack of knowledge of what bitcoin is. Maybe they don't know about the market strategy, maybe they didn't know that it's price are consistently varying anytime. And for the issue that they proclaim bitcoin is a scam, i font think so because its true that no kne forced them to buy bitcoin.

For whatsoever people says about bitcoin it didn't change in my mind set that bitcoin is a legit matter to me even our government didn't recognize it as legit or not. But talking bitcoin has turned as a scam coin i am puzzled with this news? But as what my ftiend told me the source of the news are not legit so i wouldnt believe it, bitcoin is not a scam!

[bribed]

What you say about the exchanges is true, its terrible to trade at the moment. I stepped away from trading at the moment, it has no point for me. I also think that the price of Bitcoin is artificially created. This is not an organic growth, this is just pumping too hard. I definitely dislike the priceride. However, Bitcoin is no scam coin!

That is your opinion. You are free to dump your bitcoins as you wish if you really think that bitcoin is a scam. There are lots of people here willing to take it out of your hand.

We cannot deny that bitcoin has big problems on confirmation time and transaction fees. It has been a lingering problem since the volume of users started to come up (sometimes just scam tx bloating the mempool). It is a problem the devs should solve. But it is definitely not a scam.

You are just complaining because of the transaction time !? Dude don't you understand that people have gone crazy and they want to completely utilize their btc now because of its price. You just just call something a scam just like that or you don't know what scam is . Bitcoin is the world's best Cryotocurrency and no stupid aligations would affect it.

[Rana590]

Bitcoin is not a scam coin till now. It has a lot of user and popularity. It is not enough to call Bitcoin as scam coin. Price can be up or down. But right that it is not so good such kind of increasing. Hope Bitcoin will last.

Definitely bitcoin isn't a scam because if it is a scam, then many investors nowadays are reporting because they were deceived. But as you can see, there's no investors claiming that they were scammed in bitcoin. Same as you I am also hoping that bitcoin will last because it helps us a lot.

[robliu88]

The high volatility of this market doesn't make it a scam. It separates the good investors from the scared

Your not the only one experiencing this kind of technical issue. Never judge btc that it is a scam just because of this recent problem. Just be patience and everything will be fine. This problem has occurred due to increasingly high demand of transaction.

[bribed]

haha. you should be calm down. The demand of Bitcoin is too high now, and you know why. After the hard forks, everything will be better.

Demand for BTC is huge nowadays, thats true. However what makes you think that after the hard forks people will stop buying Bitcoin and things will settle? Would be happy if you evaluate it, because I dont really understand the impact that those hardforks have on Bitcoin.

I think he just expressed a disappointment, he should make a lot of money but instead get something that what he expected, he simply blame the Bitcoin network that indeed it's very slow confirming the transaction especially a huge amount one even with high fee , he just throw that words emotionally I believe and that's reasonable too.

[GirlBitcoin]

I think you are feeling anxious when bitcoin is constantly rising and reaching new heights. I can understand this is the normal psychology of investors when new entrants into the crypto market. But you will find that this is the true value of bitcoin.

[Theb]

Wow a "shit coin" that is worth 15500$ is really a big statement. Judging bitcoin based on its transaction speed is kinda a bad way to judge Bitcoin because Bitcoin has a lot to offer and obviously a lot of people are in need of sending and receiving Bitcoin that is why the transfers slowed down. And why will it be a scam coin if you will still receive your Bitcoin just not at the speed that you wanted. Obviously right now you are feeling mad as you have expected your Bitcoins to early. Maybe trying one of those Transaction Accelerators can help you.

[Dart18]

A good way to take out the anger. Yes post it here.

But that doesnt mean everyone will believe you.
It takes a lot of proof just so you could prove it is a scam.
If you have a bad experience then it is not just you. It also happened to many of us here. But that doesnt mean we will stop.
Take it for experience them get over it and make it as a lesson.

What are those altcoins that you are trying to say that has the fastest transactions eh? Bitcoin isn't a scam but bitconnect is a ponzi scheme and they are two different coins right? Is this the first time that you experience network congestion for transactions? It happened before but it was doubled today. Everyone is transacting and riding with the increase of bitcoin before it's too late. And with those altcoins that you are trying to say, once they are also crowded they'll experience this too.

I am seeing these posts everywhere. All over Reddit and other forums as well.

I honestly think that these people sold their BTC at like $1500 at the beginning of 2017 and wanted to buy back at $500 and it never happened and they missed out.

Spreading nothing but FUD after FUD.

Only, few hours ago price was at 15550 USD and at this time Bitcoin has crossed 17100 USD. All these things have put Bitcoin under many question, like such a tremendous growth is taking place and will it survive or burst. All the things which used to happen in alt coin like pumping and dumping might take place in Bitcoin. But bitcoin cannot be called into a scam coin, a scam coin is where developers turn their back and run away with the money but in the case of Bitcoin it is completely decentralized and cannot be turned down until all the miners work for Bitcoin.

It cannot really, the rise of its price is due to many reasons of course because a lot of demands nowadays as people are now hooked with this kind of crypto. Because the price is really high doesn't mean that bitcoin is a scam it is not an accurate reason to accuse like that, if it is a scam for sure is not existing now.

[Coin12]

Bitcoin is high volatile. Everybody know that before you enter this world of cryptocurrency.

I strongly disagree with you that Bitcoin has turned into a scam coin. If its price continues to soar it's because lot people are adopting and investing in it every day. Bitcoin has nothing to do with those exchanges that are being hacked and those scams websites that use the name Bitcoin. This is only Bitcoin site that I know, https://bitcoin.org/en/

"Bitcoin is extremely secure, using dual-sided cryptography for each transaction, and there is also only a finite amount ever in existence", https://www.express.co.uk/finance/city/874249/bitcoin-price-record-high-why-is-bitcoin-rising-BTC-value

If you want to sent bitcoin faster, just select higher fees in order to get it on the first or second block and you should be fine. Of course that you must be prepared to pay high fees in order to get priority, but if it is urgent then it might be worth it. Also don't forget that the number of outputs also influences the fees you pay, so you must take that into consideration.

As for the trades, I don't know what you are talking about. As far as I know, when you are trading you are not really making transactions, otherwise exchanges would be paying huge amount of fees, and that wouldn't work. I'm sure they keep the transaction internal, and they only make real transactions when they really need to. So if you are blocked it's not because of the bitcoin network, and the problem should be on the side of the exchange.

As for hacks, they happen all the time and on a lot of areas. Of course bitcoin exchanges are very attractive for hackers, because there is a lot of money there, but the reports on big exchanges being hacked has been quite small these days.

I don't know were all this bitcoin rage is coming from, but I think you should reconsider what you are saying, because if you think well, you can't support any of the accusations you made.

[Dudeperfect]

I can understand your pain but understand that things are yet in the development phase and not a fine product at this point but since more and more people are realising the potential of it, they are pouting their money in it with the expectations of earning multifold returns for their investment. Even you know that Bitcoin is not a Ponzi scheme and how it works so it's better to keep calm wait for the development. I am not underestimating the alt-coins but blaming Bitcoin just for the sake of alt-coins is not a good idea in my opinion.

[btcone111]

I don’t think Bitcoin is a scam but I agree about the transaction times. I have one unconfirmed for more than a day so I am frustrated about that too. They will eventually get confirmed. Sometimes it’s slower than others. I’ve said in the past that Bitcoin needs to get this figured out or Bitcoin could level off in price and other altcoins that have faster transaction times and lower fees could pass Bitcoin in market cap. I think Bitcoin could still be worth a lot as just a store of value.

I bought Bitcoin today and the transaction was confirmed immediately! I disagree with you, calling bitcoin a ponzi scheme as you may not have read bitcoin's white paper to know what Bitcoin stand for. I have been reading comments from those that have little knowledge on how bitcoin works and the way to trade it successfully and one thing that I have find out is that " They did not know the price that has been paid by Bitcoin enthusiasts in other to put bitcoin's image at were it is today" I think ponzi schemes are those investment platform that does not normally last more than a year and scaming sites has a link from the beneficiary But bitcoin has proof not to be any of this.

Its not a scam coin and how you can say such thing? Transactions are rising and the the price is rising up high too. Its normal for which there are lots of people making transactions. After all these years bitcoin still remain strong and i dont know whats up on your mind why you do said that bitcoin has turn into scam coin.lol. and also can you point out recent exchange that have been hacked?

Currently its over 15550 USD The transactions on bitcoin network is taking me more then 24 hours no wonder the price is going up its a ponzi scheme and because its slow people are locked as they are not able to trade it

Bitcoin has been in existence for over 8 years now and has survived and is still surviving. So, if you call it a scam or ponzi scheme, no one who has invested into it for the last 2-3 years that held their coins till this year/now will say that bitcoin is a scam. OP, Your view has no point to make/call bitcoin a scam.

[Greendays]

Really frustrating sometimes.. it is all and every thing is good in bitcoin except the transection time. Still i wonder this coin has a system. So the transection time may also affect the magical process of bitcoin.. maybe.. just asumming..

This is the problem about bitcoin transactions too long sometimes it took more than 48 hours to confirm the transactions. Also, the fees are huge when sending, when the price of bitcoin skyrocket problem do exists and did'nt get resolved. But we cannot say it is scam bitcoin exists still.

maybe the long term of the transaction depends on the amount of Bitcoin? if I recently spent quite a few coins, the transactions lasted only two or three hours.

Ability to trade doesn't depend from transaction speed. When you trade on exchange you don't move your bitcoin.

Exchangers Being Hacked Many sites having problem sending and receiving bitcoins

If exchanges  being hacked - its problem of the central exchanges and their security  but not currency.
You dont understand at all  how bitcoin work. Bitcoin it's not just currency or technology, it's much more on it.

[4better]

I don't think bitcoin has turned into a scam. That may be the way you see it but I don't see it that way. Very, very few people are into this scam thoughts and I'm just glad I'm not one of them.

[dissgo]

you can't say bitcoin is scam or sh*tcoin by what the problem you faced.
because the fact is bitcoin getting bullish and people who don't know what it was before and even government and almost all of media expose about bitcoin, then it's volatile in short.
that's what makes the network traffic been high.
So, if you want to be the priority one, you need to send your bitcoin with higher fee.

If Bitcoin is a fraud, Bitcoin prices have increased in the past few days. I think Bitcoin is of international interest and I am sure that Bitcoin will soon be legalized around the world by 2020 because people will trust Bitcoin more.

that is right if it is really a scam or faud the owner of this can have the chance to take away all the btc that we have right not. But now for sure all our doubts had gone cause it proves enough that bitcoin is stable enough. We are also aiming here in our country that bitcoin would be legalize soon.

Bitcoin is not a scam though there are problem encountered during this moment of bitcoin at a peak price. But doesnt mean it is a scam coin. Yes Im also not one of those who thinks btc is scam, but people thinking of its a scam just because of this many issues encountered. So hope this will resolved immediately.

as far as i'm concern i don't even hear about that bitcoin is scam coin and that this is all gimmick.                             Maybe sometimes there are troubles in bitcoin. Maybe the way you see it that bitcoin is scam and there is people that they thought that this is scam and I'm glad that I'm not one of them.

[Md.Esamul Haque]

Bitcoin isn't a trick coin, it's really the primary crypto coin that was made that made utilization of a blockchain. The strategy each other altcoin uses to make their money decentralized. On the off chance that you surmise that Bitcoin is a shitcoin, at that point you shouldn't utilize some other coin in light of the fact that these are simply duplicates of Bitcoin. Indeed it's actual that Bitcoin faces adaptability issues yet Bitcoin designers have discovered an answer for it, which right now being produced called the 'Lightning system'. In spite of the fact that you're wrong about the altcoins being better on the grounds that these coins don't need to deal with the extraordinary measure of exchanges Bitcoin has. A few coins may have expanded the piece measure however that doesn't generally take care of the issue for all time, it's only an approach to deal with the present surge of exchanges brief. This expansion likewise carries symptoms with it, similar to more centralization which is essentially the opposite Satoshi proposed his money to be.

[cryptoblue]

No, not yet. It has not turned into a scam coin. But we have seen unnatural growth in recent months. We may see correction soon.

Yes, it just a pump now. As you know, there is much good news recently, so it makes the demand for Bitcoin increase. Now, the market is adjusting and the price has reduced to $15000

It's not a scam but you are right the network congestion is ridiculous, we need 2 mb blocks to hold it over until offchain solutions can be reliably developped. Ethereum is similarly congested and also needs a boost in block size (gas limit per block) until PoS or other solutions to merge multiple transactions into 1.

[albermaze]

It's not a scam. But it seems that it is overvalued and we will see it's real price till the spring. Moreover, it seems that bitcoin has lost for what it was designed for... It is look like nobody uses bitcoin for transactions but only as an assert to hold with the aim to gain value. Yes, we see a high demand on it, but the main function of money is to serve for transactions but not to store value....

[bribed]

I think you are right here. The accusations the OP makes are not the case, it looks more like personal frustration. I agree that there are huge scalability issues on both blockchains that have to be addressed by the devs, as we are heading towards mainstream adoption this should be the number one concern.

On the other hand I think that the latest surge of BTC was insane, the price seems out of control and like nobody can predict where we are heading. The huge swings we see daily are showing this quite nicely. Im really curious where we will stand pricewise at the end of this month.

Just because you are having some issues with bitcoin or you have some bad experience with bitcoin doesn't prove the bitcoin as a scam coin. You need to have a strong and valid reason for making this kind of statement. Maybe your problem might be because of some other reasons and bitcoin is not responsible for any kind of hacking of sites. Anyways the big bull run by the bitcoin is being supported by the big corporate players and professional traders as they all are expecting a good future in bitcoin.

Since bitcoin's price is very high,most people are trying to sell their bitcoins at once and this has temporarily led to congestion in transactions.It would get solved soon.Exchanges get hacked very rarely and it is always advised not to store bitcoins in exchange wallet.Bitcoin could be in no way blamed for that.When lighting network gets activated,transactions would get confirmed quickly.

the transaction takes an 24 hours because of the excessive number of transactions, you can not complain because you are not the only person experiencing such a delay. so how do you say that the bitcoin currency turn into a scam? if the problem is a slow transaction.

[bitfocus]

Banks get robbed, accounts get hacked and people become the victim of Ransome - and it's happening since the dark age. and you need to help yourself to get at least basics of crypto, the blockchain, investment, and Bitcoin. No one forces you to buy Bitcoin, no one forces you to invest in Bitcoin, if you make any tragic case of losing your savings - well, it's really up to you.

When the bitcoins became tbis much expensive in the market a lot of things happen bad things actually because of those people who wants to comitt bad things. I do not know why they do that shame on them. Yes the butcoins price now are falling because of them they are ruining the price of the bitcoins. And those transactions it become worst we cannot do anything but to wait for untill the problem will be resolved because are just an ordinary users so we cannot do anthing but compain about it. I am thinking quitting bitcoins after i get my loss.

[tibor]

If we go to a technical analysis where we see that the bitcoin structure is old fashioned because the size of the blocks, then I would recommend to buy bitcoin cash and im a fan of it, but since when the stock markets are racional?

[malikusama]

I strongly disagree, you are clearly targeting the whole network by pointing rare problems occurring nowadays. Not every transaction needs 24 hours to confirm, some are having problems due to low fee or other reasons.
So in this way we should shut all online payment systems like online banking because hackers can hack them, don't forget that it is more secure than online banking system. Yes many coins have fast transaction rate but those coins are not widely used as bitcoin is being used all over the world having maximum number of the users.

[eddyhalim]

i dont agree with your idea, we can still using bitcoin until nowadays and we still bitcoin is developing in blockchain platform, providing us more convinient and fast transactions, and it is an investment for anybody have brave enough to get money from cryptocurrencies.

He takes all the blame generally into bitcoin with just seeing on the situation of those hacking incidents and with its volatile price which isnt really right to blame it as a scam coin.It do really matter on exchange security why they are being hacked and bitcoin has nothing to do with it and its normal for hackers or criminal minds to took illegal action just to take those bitcoin knowing that it do have high value.

The price of bitcoin is increasing and the network delay is bigger,are you trading for the first time,when ever the price of bitcoin rises the number of transactions increases and the network becomes congested because of that and it takes a long time to get a single confirmation and the transaction charges are usually higher,if you are getting your coins from the exchanges why does anyone move the coin to other location,they can trade directly without moving their coins,if you are looking for cheap and fast transaction and not valuations,look for dogecoin and other small coins with unlimited coins.

this kind of scenario are very common , but this is not a reason to say that bitcoin is a scam i thought that it was not a scam cause if this was a scam why  a lot of people take this currency and believe, and yet what really the thing that was been being so annoying about bitcoin is the hackers only so dont be fall on that n just because of being scammed for.

[adiksau0414]

We hear your sentiments. But it doesn't provide A good basis that bitcoin is a scam or as you what it called shit coins. Basically, through congestion and traffic in the blockchain, thats why its having a hard time to distribute or send bitcoins to where it supposed to be. You are just having you impatience ran into you, thats why you think bitcoin is a scam. I think you also like bitcoin deep inside, you are just worried in the possible upcome of all the transactions or rather the increase/decrease in value of bitcoin. We all been to that stage, because we want to have profit in what we invested to. Just calm down.

[Idrisu]

Bitcoin cannot be a scam coins and I think we need to have little patience as this networks conjunction problems should be resolved and that is why we are advocating for scaling as the network is too narrow and a lot of demand for bitcoin currently. We should know that there is no human system that is perfect and bitcoin is one of those systems and if we term every thing a scams then all human system are scams. Bitcoin has proven to most of its haters that it is not a scams and the more you guys attack it the more acceptability it get.

Don’t worry there are always some parties who don’t wish to see a fame of some particular thing. Right in this case, bitcoin is being affected with such roamers and notorious news. Every other day we listen some stupidity about bitcoin and then after a time that would be disappear. This is one the block from that chain and this will come to an end with in a week. Just relax.

You were mistaken in your statements. The currency itself has absolutely nothing with the cases of exchanges that have been hacked or left the air without giving any explanation, much less this loss of values when sending or receiving that are normally diverted by the exchange itself.

Already the case of the delays in the transactions can be happening to you because you are not putting the fee of agreement. Until today since the btc data traffic rose never happened from any of my caisse transactions in limbo.

I think this is just a panic you feel with a very significant rise in bitcoin price so you give an assumption as you say that bitcoin is a scam. and you say it without being accompanied by a pact that can convince us all especially bitcoin holders and I do not understand why you say bitcoin is a scam but in fact we all know bitcoin is the very first crypto currency that ever existed and of course as the icon of altcoin bitcoin will be able to overcome all the problems that will surely happen. and about what you have said about the site you think has a problem in a bitcoin submission this I do not really understand about which site you are referring to. so why do not you explain in detail about a site that you mean if you have bad experience on the delivery of bitcoin with one of the sites you use should you question is about the problems that exist on the site and of course the point is not a problem on bitcoin but that is on the site you are using.

I don't know why people call it a scam? We have news about bitcoin popularity from various news channels like BBC, CNN, FOX news, CNBC, DW and many more highly reputed news agencies. The news reports of all these news channels proves that people are after bitcoin, which is the only strength of bitcoin. The demand for it currently is higher than ever before that forces price graph to go high.
Sometime you may feel this abrupt price growth freaky but if you look at how crazy people are for bitcoin, it will make you understand why is price going high.

[shan05]

If it is a scam, maybe no one will buy btc anymore and no one will say they have profited from it. If you have that experience,  then you cannot say that bitcoin is all scam.

If bitcoin turned into a scam coin then it won't achieve it's value now. Do you know the bitcoin's value today? It reached $16,975.22 which means that it is getting more popular and company keeps on investing due to its capabilities of having a high value in the next 5 years. Those people who said that bitcoin is a scam are those people who never experienced and doesn't have enough knowledge about it.

Like you I was disagree because bitcoin is strongly legit, if you notice more people are wants to have this coin due to continues increasing of their value. Moreover they want to have this bitcoin because this coin is also a good investment. Otherwise due to good rates of bitcoin in the market more huge capitalist and investors are encourage to invest this coin.

I'm sure that even how long bitcoin runs in the crypto currency community this coin will not be turned into scam.

Why are you blaming bitcoin for a hack incident in exchanges when you can use reputable ones? And remember that there's a massive fomo so there's so much transactions going on. And just like you said, there are many coins out there so leave btc alone.

[Sleepy18]

For me, my opinion is that bitcoin is a cryptocurrency that changes the style of whole industry when it comes to market and our lifestyle. Many of the investment site on the internet are ponzi scheme which will give you high return of investment but in few days will be out on the internet. If you experience this, my friend me too thats why we need to be more careful in investing. We should do a lot of research and specially we should take risk that we can afford so that we wont be miserable what ever happens. Its not bad if we have too many question and i wont judge you if you will criticize them because you need to earn trust!

[justdimin]

BITCOIN is NOT a scam coin, The reason is BTC is very very bullish and there is NO proof that BTC is a scam! Yes, there's a bit of people who are making BTC to MLM.

But i think the reason you made this is because your part of a bank or you knew BTC since it started and you thought it is rigged and scam until now. It's your choice if you don't want to be rich.

Everything that has happenned looks a scam Firstly the bitcoin is all popular for its decentralization if the decentralization is wiped off bitcoin then who will want to use it and wait several days to receive their GOLD.. It has a problem and the problem in their outdated source has never been able to retrieve And making it now a centralized currency has made bitcoin a failure in terms of its aspects what it promised to be..
I am not buying the idea of thinking it will become 1 million USD when the main motive has been wiped off bitcoin what remains is the cover of a new technology that happens to have issues REST FAILS

It totally seems you have no idea of a single thing you are saying. What has made bitcoin centralized ? What has bitcoin promised you right now that it is not fulfilling for you ? When you have been using you traditional system of banking, what has it done for you better than bitcoin ?

Also, I am sure you were one of those vouching for Ethereum, and I hope you have gotten your questions answered now.

The thing is that you may think some coins are quite better now, but you should consider the establishment first and the facts that they have not been used on a large scale before you even start judging and I really do not know why you are complaining, I am sure BCH has already given you an option you are looking for, so you might as well just shift base. Simple!

Currently its over 15550 USD The transactions on bitcoin network is taking me more then 24 hours no wonder the price is going up its a ponzi scheme and because its slow people are locked as they are not able to trade it

The network is congested because bitcoin is gaining popularity, many people like you and me are doing transactions daily. But if you are in a hurry because you needed the money right away, then you should pay with the highest fees so that your transaction could be included in the next block. Problems solved. No name calling needed. Look at how the community reacts. I also have my transactions stuck in 3 days, causing me to lose money. But I didn't say that its a Ponzi or scam.

ITS just a shit coin with a hype on it. Exchangers Being Hacked Many sites having problem sending and receiving bitcoins How is this even the future. There are many other coins which has fastest transactions this is just a gimmick
BTCig shit

I would say that crypto is not for you mate. Go somewhere else and never come back. Or try altcoins, its been pumping lately and I'm sure they are all fast in terms of confirmations, or go to stock market. Let's see how will it go for you. And if it didn't work your way, call them scam or Ponzi as well. LOL.

[naidray]

BITCOIN is NOT a scam coin, The reason is BTC is very very bullish and there is NO proof that BTC is a scam! Yes, there's a bit of people who are making BTC to MLM.

But i think the reason you made this is because your part of a bank or you knew BTC since it started and you thought it is rigged and scam until now. It's your choice if you don't want to be rich.

There goes another one. Who are the people making BTC MLM? No one is turning bitcoin to a Ponzi, and if people are not able to understand that adoption is increasing hugely and the value is increasing as a result, then there is really nothing to tell them.

This is a world of choice, and no one is forcing anyone to make any decision, but for the fact that someone will just drop a statement that does not sound reasonable because of some tiny little experience that does not even suck as much as using a bank for international transaction, that is intolerable. OP can just switch to the likes of Ethereum that is battling scaling right now because of kittens.

[streazight]

Bitcoin's price is surging high due to wall street companies entering it and the very high media exposure its getting nowadays.

I don't know which sites have problem in sending and receiving bitcoins.

Exchanges getting hacked could not be mentioned as a problem of bitcoin.If only bitcoins in our wallet gets hacked,we could see it as a serious issue.

With lightning network soon to be activated,all the transaction problems would get solved.

I really wonder why people are explaining all these to this guy. If because an exchange is vulnerable enough to get hacked or someone is using a low level of security on their account to get it compromised.

Or because you have to send a transaction that requires you to wait a bit or send it with higher fee call bitcoin a scam, then I really wonder why you have not gone back to using PayPal or just tell anyone you want to send something to, to accept the coin of your choice.

I believe that is impossible. As we know bitcoin is growing and the port is stable. Next bitcoin is preparing to sign a new futures contract, which shows that the bitcoin is clear and accurate. We can see that more and more countries are recognizing bitcoin as a legal currency for normal circulation. Therefore, you should be sure to invest in bitcoin as it is growing. And certainly he cheated on you.

[leviathon]

Bitcoin is definitely not a scam. But it is very risky. That's what the cryptocurrency is all about. You can either earn or lose money but it is very clear to the investor so not a scam.

[enawati]

Blockchain technology behind Bitcoin still young technology, so there will be advantages and disadvantages. Bitcoin not scam, many country regulated it and many international bank and others payment instituon also  buy and keep Bitcoin for investment.

[hsjrjkf]

Obviously, this reason is not enough to convince people that I think Bitcoin is not a scam. But investing in Bitcoin is very dangerous. This is the entire content of the cryptocurrency. You can make money or lose money, but it is very clear to investors.

[mmp95]

I feel sorry for your experience, sir, but I deny your claim, because bitcoin itself is not a scam. It is the people who use it, and I wish you good luck.

[legenduim]

LOL. Really, we are all scammers here, on this Forum as we are supporting Bitcoin. Seriously, BTC always had the periods of downs, and you can check it in the charts. Why now everybody panic? Relax, people, the situation will be normalized.

[ajochems]

If you don't want to be rich ,don't get into bitcoin. Last year Bitcoin was the millionaire maker.Many had become rich and millionaire with this bitcoin when the price reaches 19k$.Do you have any proof for bitcoin is scam coin.I don't think so.

The dumping of bitcoin price is merely part of its volatility nature and it does not mean that it is scam because of that.  I think it is better for you to check the history of bitcoin in the market and you can observe that what we are experiencing right now also happened before.  But the good thing about it, still bitcoin recovers from dumping of price before so, it also has the capacity to recover during our time.  Bitcoin is not merely about pumping of price and earning money from your investment.  It is the role it can play in the future and how it might change the currency system worldwide.

[TomUyamot]

What do you mean Bitcoin has turned into a scam coin? Do you mean to say that Bitcoin used to be a legitimate coin? And then simply because it grew so high in value it became a scam coin? You have a very illogical reasoning. Bitcoin grew in value because it is the most in-demand coin among the so many cryptocurrencies right now. Why then would it suddenly become a scam coin? Do you own some BTC? If you don't, then you are in no place to talk about it as a scam. If you have then throw it away, in my direction. 

[olia10]

Despite such success, yet you consider the crypto-currency of the century, the air bubble or the network pyramid. If the rate of the crypto currency falls, many have lost certain amounts of their investments. However, I am still confident that bitcoin is the money of the future.

[btcformula]

Bitcoin is not a scam though there are problem encountered during this moment of bitcoin at a peak price. But doesnt mean it is a scam coin.

[Roxterrio]

Why topics like these even exist?
It's understandable when people who know almost nothing about crypto say that.

But not on this forum... If you think bitcoin is a scam, you should probably not be in this community

[ace4549]

For me it is impossible to happen but in this generation everything is possible to happen,
and I think if bitcoin has turned into a scam coin then it is a fake one that the scammer use to their future victim and at the same time they are use the name of bitcoin to their plans.

I do not agree the least. Many of the people how blame Bitcoin and call it scam coin are responsible for their own loss in the crypto market. They enter the market with little and some time no knowledge and information about how to do trading and make decisions about when to sell or buy. As a result, they loose their invested money and out of desperation and dejection start calling Bitcoin scam coin and much more. The technology on the other hand has been helping people change lives and enjoy every bit of the market.

Expect those cry babies do really exist on the market where they do call it scam when they lose up money just like treating other scam investments online without even realizing that the cause of their loss is on their own mistakes where they arent knowledgeable or aware on how the market goes with bitcoin. Either do missed out to sell on those times or sell out earlier and missed out the profiting moment. Instead on getting pissed on price increase why would not consider to make another plan on sudden price change?

[goaldigger]

You cannot declare bitcoin as a scam if you are scammed using this, or if your transaction is too slow that maybe your internet has a problem regarding that. An isolated case of scam using bitcoin is not a basis that it is a scam. Although it dump from peak to death, still its a part of trading life and not a scam. Why are you people scapegoating like this if you experienced bad things in it.

[kateycoin]

Bitcoin is not scam and never be you know what is the scam?people! People that always want to scam others.  Yes not all people are not scammer but the others that always want make fraud to scam many people and use bitcoin to scam them. That's why the image of bitcoin is not for the others and they think that bitcoin is scam which is not.

I won't say "scam". I think you see its movement of going down in value as a factor to consider it a scam; however, it is surely and certainly not the case because of the fact that the market, together with its assets, are just like this. It experiences lows as it experiences highs. So, the better strategy here is to actually check out what should be done during this bad times to actually make it unfold into a good venture in the future. Basically, just turn something trash in something that can be considered a treasure.

[electron-coin]

You see how much has already happened after December 7, 2017? We saw a price of $ 20k, we saw $ 6k. But the main thing is that the transactions in the network bitcoin have become cheap and fast . This is what made you nervous. Manipulators are in all areas. Where there is money, there will be manipulation, intrigue and deception. It is necessary to look at the essence. I believe in the crypto currency, in the fact that this is our future. In 10-20 years we will not pay any more with paper money. Think about this in your spare time!

Those who don't trust bitcoin may not have room for cryptocurrency, before we can be good in other alts, we should know first the primary crypto that made cryptocurrency known and legit.

It was clear that the action was done deliberately by human, a greedy man who want to profit such an uncivilized act or deviate from the actual bitcoin program.

[kokobaba880]

Bitcoin is not a scam and being a user we have to promote crypto and the rumors which is spreading in the market this all happen just to bring down the bitcoin popularity and bitcoin price.

[coffigayo]

No one is forced to buy Bitcoin and it is up to the individual because it is the hard earned money they make so they can decide where they want to invest. It's not a scam coin. But recent uptrend is quite unnatural. In a month or two, it has changed from 3k-5k to 15k. No one expects such abnormal growth

[cryptoman512]

I don't know if you really understand the economic structure of bitcoin. Ponzi scheme is based on paying the first people at the top of a network scheme by the latest people who joined in it. Bitcoin is based on supply and demand. The more people wanted it, the more it gets its value higher. You should go back to your economics class in high school. Supply and demand is being taught there.

Bitcoin and altcoin can not be compared with currencies such as Dollar and Rupiah. The price of coins in cryptocurrency is very volatile and very different from the real currency. This makes us have to be careful in buying and selling in the market cryptocurrency

That was unmistakenly the whining of a Bitcoin hater, because his argument was premised on nothing substantial other than his illusion that there are many better coins out there. Might be instructive to note that Bitcoin have been here since 2009, fought many battles and yet unshattered. If indeed it were a scam, well before now, one of those obituaries would have nailed it already, but instead it's getting more popular by the day!

Generalizing bitcoin as a scam coin due to your experience with it does not constitute that the whole thing is a scam. You are committing a fallacy of generalizing bitcoin due to the scope of your experience. Instead of blaming the coin, blame yourself for being negligible. Learn from your experience in order for you to prevent from that situation from happening again.
One thing that I cannot understand is some people have their negative experiences with bitcoin but instead of being negative about it, they remain positive and they always look forward for the future.

No one is forced to buy Bitcoin and it is up to the individual because it is the hard earned money they make so they can decide where they want to invest. It's not a scam coin. But recent uptrend is quite unnatural. In a month or two, it has changed from 3k-5k to 15k. No one expects such abnormal growth

I definitely agree. With its volatile nature and price, no one can accurately predict its price on the market but there are certain variables that can be consider that may somehow know its price margin. Depending on the current news and implementations made by countries who are against or for bitcoin, you can use that as a factor in determining the increase/decrease on its price.

Bitcoin and their blockchain just new technology and need more inovation to make it better,  this technology still has advantages and disadvantages,  and this is normal for young  technology.

Absolutely yes. It is the norm for all new technologies. I believe that Bitcoin will make a very high jump soon. Do not blame this cryptocurrency, do not call it the scam. Invest in BTC, and get your profits.

Bitcoin is not a scam for two reasons one is that right now it has an increased dependency of 4 billion dollars traded on a daily basis with no way to escape and the other is the decentralization a scam is always taking place when there is a one on the control

Bitcoin is not a scam it really existed, but there were people  who use it to scam. It was not bitcoins fault if others got scammed, it was their fault for being so careless with their money. Securing ones account is important in crypto market. Be a responsible crypto owner.

Many people have said this and not only the usual investors but people like Warren buffet also have a similar point of view it's not a 100 guarantee that the bitcoin is not a scan but the sense it involves blockchain technology its reliability increases,

If BTC is a fraudulent coin then maybe most other scams are also fraudulent, in my opinion BTC is not a scam as you think, you are at a loss because you do not have in-depth knowledge to invest in them. .

In my own opinion, bitcoins is not a scam but there are people who are losing their coins because they are investing without a decent knowledge about how the volatility of the market works.
