I think Bitcoin has moved from an everyday cryptocurrency which is used to buy things to an investment coin and I doubt it will ever be used in a big way to buy things again because its price fluctuations are so huge compared to mainstream money. Maybe some of the other altcoins might do better as an actual currency rather than a try to get rich quick scheme which is now what bitcoins are all about.

There is no "Deal with it", it is just your opinion which most of us do not need. Just because Bitcoin dropped from $19k to $14k does not mean that it is gone, dead or anything. It is still better than the past years and if you invested a year ago, you can still make a heck of a profit. It will keep pumping when the problems are fixed.

I totally agree that bitcoin has ceased to be useful for practical purposes and has become a monument to the failed ideal of its creators. But the speculative markets are stubborn and I do not think they let die something that they are just beginning to know and can still generate profits.
I have no doubt that the giant will remain standing for a while longer, but dead inside, as the only breath that will give life to bitcoin will be the hollow speculation that will make it a puppet in the hands of capital, but not the instrument of economic change that was originally designed.

Alright
"Bitcoin is king" "Bitcoin will keep growing" "Bitcoin is the leader" "Bitcoin will never be replaced" -newbie. Why are people still so convinced about this?
Because it has proved to be true in the past numerous times Bitcoin is great, we learned a lot of it. Without Bitcoin we wouldn't have those other cryptocurrencies. But just because Bitcoin is the pioneer doesn't mean it can't be replaced. Bitcoin Cash is just a clone with bigger blocks, this will only solve the problem temporarely. So forget about it.
Yeah it can be replaced and of course not by BCH. But till then... It's clear that Bitcoin isn't the best coin anymore.
Yeah? And which one is it? It might be clear to you but I doubt it pretty much. I'm not naming other coins because I don't wanna make this a pump post.
You don't want to pump other coins but you do trash bitcoin.... I hope Bitcoin will fail soon. It has had enough time to be adapted to its use of today. Why can't Bitcoin be as good as other and better crypto's? I have no idea. But in my eyes it's already game over for Bitcoin. I know theres gonna be a lot of fanboy hate coming to this post. Don't make them ruin this topic please.
You can always have a party with proudhon and nagle anticipating the fail of bitcoin. Just make sure you have reservations for the next century. LE Just checked you previous posts. XBC Bitcoin plus fanboy detected / enough said. @stompix you nailed it with your reply! One can's simply write off BTC because of a seasonal drop which did happen at the same time last year but was not discussed that much since the value was not as high as it was a few days ago and also there were not that many "grandmas and grandpas" with their pension funds converted to BTC.

yup if you successfully convert your bitcoin when it got 17k usd plus price and Buy bitcoin as of its being stucked in 11k usd you made a big advantage and profit. because the next rocket ship will fly high and high until it reaches again a new landing high price.. whales is amazing in manipulating price spreading rumors just to make small investors to pullout and make price low. amazing 2017 for me . thankful because I knew bitcoin before 2018

It's clear that Bitcoin isn't the best coin anymore. Problem is because of all this hype there is a lot of new dumb money that only see Bitcoin's insane price growth. That kind of people that leave their money on Coinbase is what I'm talking about (for long term).
If people would look at things more objectlively things wouldn't have gone this way. I'm not naming other coins because I don't wanna make this a pump post.
Too much dumb investors these days.. Bitcoin is no longer useable in a normal way but noobs will never realize because they never make a transaction to their own wallets because they don't even know it's decentralized and stuff...
I hope Bitcoin will fail soon. It has had enough time to be adapted to its use of today. Why can't Bitcoin be as good as other and better crypto's? I have no idea.

Thanks to those who made Bitcoin possible, we will never forget you. But now it's time to move on.
DEAL WITH IT!!
Your too much selfish to post about it. Your not letting anybody to post about this. You're running on the wrong ways to posting on it. Being selfish and not giving any chance to everybody to prove them and to earn them just for the sake of their own happiness to have a profit. bitcoin is the answer prayered for those who doesn't have an any job. So why bitcoin is letting go?

Maybe because bitcoin value increase and more and more people discover it with wrong interpretation of it. Bitcoin was a good investment of both money and time. And I agree that, maybe other people should let go btc if they only think money and depend their daily lives in bitcoin. Its not a good perspective to have

Many advantages and disadvantages, but in my opinion it still The pioneer , and the spirit of digital money, a revolution. life is full of opportunities to catch. good luck friend
That's not an opinion. Bitcoin IS the pioneer.
Pioneer means that it was first
I wouldn't say Bitcoin is best thoughI can say that it "was" and it's not anymore, for the past few months there have been a mess in the bitcoin (network), we see lots of transactions, currently we have around 300k unconfirmed transaction and if we check the total fees for these then its around 350 BTC ($5.4m) meaning 1 BTC per 1k transactions. Where is that bitcoin that had zero fees, or near to zero? - it doesn't exist anymore, now and so on we will face expensive fees for a single transaction. Ain't we forgetting the conspiracy by those behind Bitcoin cash, Bi4coin Gold and also Segwet2x, which, likely are one and same people to spam attack the Bitcoin network with enormous low fee or substandard transactions, just to overload the network and make case for their arguments? Beyond that, the adoption of Bitcoin is spreading rapidly and as the flagship cryptocurrency, there could not have been a benchmark to look upto, so hopes that progress be made with the testing and subsequent implementation of the Lightening Network I suppose should be everyone's consolation.

As I am saying, bitcoin maybe the first, the foundation of other crypto currencies on circulation but bitcoin is not the best digital currency of all time, it has lot of problems and has a lot of spaces for improvement and upgrades. I think this is another plot of some people who want to shift the attention of bitcoin users to their own crypto currencies, this happened last year, and I will not fall to this again.

I deal with you. You are right, my friends invest in bitcoin and currencies from top 10, but they even don't know what is block, how does blockchain work and many other principles. And they believe that bitcoin price will always grow higher and higher, no metter what.

Nailed what? Yes I'm a BitcoinPlus fanboy but that doesn't mean I can make serious posts like this one. I think BitcoinPlus is better than Bitcoin, so what? There's many other crypto's around that are better (in sense of speed and scalability). I'm not going to name more coins. And people have to stop thinking I'm writing this because of a "seasonal drop". It has nothing to do with price although it's obvious that the problems in the Bitcoin network are the main factor in this. This is a good thing I think. The faster non technical people realize Bitcoin isn't the best cryptocurrency the better and the less people who will make wrong decisions with their money which will ultimately in some sort of drama if they invest too much. Loosing money hurts. So better now than at let's say $100k am I right?

It's not about "falling" for it. You should always think and make wise decisions based on your own knowledge. And off course you will have to learn about technical aspects of different coins and blockchain. Good luck.

lol, might be... But I'm not writing FUD am I? Just pointing out some obvious facts. Dumb fanboys are always around protecting and being loyal to their coin. Don't get me wrong I'm not saying you are dumb before overreacting

Bitcoin Cash is a temporary alternative, never going to replace Bitcoin as a pioneer of cryptocurrency. The problem is a lot of transactions that are pending and unconfirmed, it's because the act of a deliberate person to spam the transaction, can be seen in block explorer many transactions 0 btc.

Delibirate or not. It has to deal with this kind of behaviour. In the real world there are a lot more transactions even without spam attacks on the Bitcoin network

Your views are very naive, I don't understand how can someone be so pessimestic if its about the value dip its nothing but corrections and all the disscussions about bitcoin being just a bubble are bullshit. As for the technical and dev side of things, bitcoin is getting great updates coming its way with the implementation of the lightning network.

LOL @ The thread "Is Bitcoin more important than Ethereum"
A lot of people are saying Bitcoin is better and is the digital gold and Ethereum is the digital silver and that it can't compete? This environment is TOXIC lol.
Dumb idiots judging about Ethereum without even knowing the difference. Sometimes I think this place is a joke..
I guess this place was a lot better in the old Bitcoin days before dumb newb started pulling their money in Saint "Bitcoin".
Not hating everyone though. I have seen a lot of intelligent posts of other people and I glad there still are.
