Simply the decentralization is the biggest and new revolution on the currency technology and the other things are easy transaction and safest form of currency but the problem is that people not using bitcoins as currency they using as bump and dump coin.

The advantages of bitcoins are:
It provides individuals to earn huge amount of profits in a short period of time due to its volatile nature.
It has made transactions throughout the world possible. It provides pseudoanonymity in its transactions and hence the information of the sender and reciever is kept private. Also the transaction fees is much low.
There is transparency in its transactions as all the information is recorded in its blockchain.

The decentralized concept behind BTC is intended to bring about equal rights and implicit relative equality of wealth.

The result is a wealth distribution that is more unequal than the real world.

BTC's advantages can also be a weakness!

Yes bitcoin gives us a way to earn good amount of money in short period due to its volatility but we need to use bitcoin as a Money not as a Money making tool if we continue to do then bitcoin may not last long much longer so we need to hold bitcoin as much as possible.
And it gives us the decentralization technology so we don't need anyone help to transfer money anymore.

Freedom of payment - any amount of money can be paid and received instantly and anywhere. No bank holidays, no borders, no imposition. Bitcoin allows its users to completely control their money.

Very low fees - there is no handling charge or very little handling fee for the current payment of bitcoin. The user can include the handling fee in the transaction to obtain processing priority and receive the transaction confirmation from the network faster. In addition, there are merchant processors that help merchants deal with transactions, convert bitcoin into legal tender daily and deposit funds directly into merchants' bank accounts. Because these services are based on bitcoins, they can provide a much lower fee than PayPal or credit card networks.

Reduce the risk of merchants - bitcoin transactions are safe, irrevocable, and do not contain customer sensitivity or personal information. This avoids the loss caused by fraud or fraudulent withdrawal, and there is no need to comply with PCI standards. In places where credit CARDS cannot be used or fraud rates are too high, businesses can easily expand new markets. The net result is lower costs, bigger markets, and less administrative costs.

Security and control - bitcoin users are completely in control of their transactions; Businesses cannot force fees that may or may not be found in other payment methods. Paying with bitcoin doesn't have to be tied to personal information in transactions, which provides great protection against identity theft. Bitcoin users can also protect their money by backing up and encrypting it.

Transparency and neutrality - all information about the money supply itself is stored in a block chain, and anyone can check and use it in real time. No individual or organization can control or manipulate the bitcoin protocol because it is password protected. This makes bitcoin's core believed to be completely neutral, transparent and predictable.

I have read similar articles like this, it has been repost many times on some blog webs, some source
https://steemkr.com/bitcoin/@crypt07/what-are-the-advantages-and-the-disadvantages-of-bitcoin-hot-discussion
you need to put your articles resource, even though you modify few words of it but credit should be to original poster.

Bitcoin are interesting discussion topic, with many of advantages it still having many room for development. However, over time we find that Bitcoin often has transaction fees problems. At the time, network was flooded with many transactions per second which exceeds its capacity, many tx was being stuck for a week even more, and increasing tx fees was important thing as solution to avoid this.

The very good thing that I am seeing with bitcoin aside from the fact that some people are doing it as their way of investment is that bitcoin makes our life comfortable when it comes to transacting things out, easy to pay bills, cash in cash out, transferring money.

From what i see, with bitcoin anyone, from any country, of any age can accept Bitcoins within minutes.  There is no ID card, passport or proof of address that all conventional banks required to open an account.  All you need to do to start sending and receiving Bitcoins is to download a Bitcoin Wallet program and generate a Bitcoin Address.

Yes, I agree. Bitcoin has many advantages that benifits the user. It is accessible, you only have to do is that to an internet access. Bitcoin is also investing without any profit that's why lay people can join even a college student also. That's bitcoin is reliable in some instances.

The advantages are depended on your country. If you provide KYC to any exchange then you will be under control of your governament, but still it depends on which exchange site you are using.

If you use security on your system and keep your private keys safely then nobody will hack your wallet.

You can buy bitcoins but you must pay tax for your profit this is the rule in many countries around the world.

You are right but I'm sorry I can't agree with the second one. The one with " very low fees". I don't think the fees are very low nowadays. The figure is much higher than it should be. Even if you are looking for some cents (BTC) to trade still you have to pay a good amount of money (Dollar for example). But the rest of the advantages are all good.

Yes that is right that a lot of advantage of bitcoin are there, and as time pass bitcoin advantages will continue increasing because bitcoin bitcoin  use is now increasing from time to time. I think that the main advantage of bitcoin is that bitcoin can be use anywhere in the world without changing it into any other crypto currency. Bitcoin can also be use for both online as well as in offline shops for shopping.

Bitcoin itself is an advantage to all people who have trust on it. Because it provides great profit and change many lives like giving an opportunity to less fortunate one. And that is an advantage of bitcoin for me. 

The advantages of bitcoin is that it help us to earn extra income, it helps also jobless people to earn money its like giving opportunity to the people who are less fortunate because it helps to provide money.

The advantage of bitcoin is you dont need to work under the sun to earn money like construction workers, you only need talk to people and persuade them to buy bitcoins.

Peer to peer transfer. Is the biggest advantage of bitcoin around the world

i think and i believe there are a lot of advantages of bitcoin, but what i think is more significant is that bitcoin is changing the landscape of social structure, it should be seen as a post structuralism, because before we believe and think that society should be "govern" and ruled in one side model, which of course create hierarchy and power over people, but the concept of bitcoin which is private, everybody take part in controlling, accepting and approving is a kind of a new model for our next society.
