I dont know if this is a serious thing or just pure troll.

How would a cryptocurrency or simply involve on money would already comes to a point where it do correlates with religion? How bullshit this kind on how to correlate things to each other.
Money or digital currency has nothing to do with religion or cult because they are entirely different.

Btw, i didnt watch the link above because it do pissed me of.

Is the use of mobile phone,whatsapp or facebook a cult? I wonder why people develop strage concept on cryptocurrency and assume all wild things about it. Crypto is not cult, the fact that only few people have that superior knowledge never make it one.

I don't how people comes up with this kind of stupid questions. Really? A cult? Not sure by "cult" whether you mean the literal meaning of cult or more like the loose meaning of cult (trend among a particular group of people). And whats weird is that people are answering to this thread and also commenting on the video link you have posted. Whats more weird is no one recognizes who he is :/. One of my favorite character of the series.

what? You are not kidding. How can a password be a cult? The downside of the password is the use of cults, not the password itself is a cult.

It's literally the opposite of a cult. Cryptography is based on MATH. You can't have belief in math, it's just freaking math, how it is a cult?

Bitcoin is backed by cryptography, math, hashrate, nodes, this creates what you would call a belief in the system, but this belief is fundamented in very tangible things (contrary to what most idiots would argue about Bitcoin not being tangible).

You cannot simply draw a parallel of religious cult with a technology.

As for me it is a very incorrect comparison. Crypto currency and blockchain are very important phenomenons for people, which will change the life of the humanity in a few years. But this is not the reason to treat cryptocurrency as an idol and worship it.

cult won’t let us gain profit. Blockchain is no doubt a trend technology, nobody can reject the technology revolution. And nobody would support cult keeping burning their money

For some people consider bitcoin as haram , some people call bitcoin is a cult.
Every people have their own judgement based on their religion view although it's completely different thing but of course we can judge them wrong either.
As long as people still support bitcoin, I think it not a problem at all !

I do not think this is a cult but it leads to worship. It attracts you with the promise of wealth, keeping you captivated with numbers and different types of coins. I admit that some people may be very fanatical about cryptocurrancy but this is completely different from the fanatic worship. Zealots are more dependent on mental control.

cryptocurrencies are a REVOLUTION!!
not just a cult.

Well to be honest I have been reading some articles about this kind of topics and some many people have considered it against religion to invest in Bitcoin. The technology is considered as illegal in the religion. But I think this is the need of the day and as long as it does not harm some one, it is not a bad thing. It is rather letting people earn and has given financial freedom.
