Alt coins vs. fiat currency

[Kent Kermit]

Fiat currency is go-to currency everwhere in the world. It is used EVERYWHERE. The world ran on Fiat currency for so long. But sometimes, it can lead to problems. Fiat currency can be stolen and be destroyed. Crypto currencies cannot be easily stolen. Someone can hack and take all your coins, but there are people who try their best to prevent this too. I would prefer a world that runs on Crypto rather than Fiat currencies, just because it is easier to use and is, in a way, a safer way of exchange. But, this cannot happen right now, because not everyone has access to crypto currency, Internet and Technology required for crypto altogether.

fiat is still the first choice of the people. in my city everything we pay is fiat and we don't have option to pay bitcoin. but why do they have to fight? we people that use crypto can access it through fiat and fiat through crypto.

The importance and popularity of the crypto currency is increasing rapidly. It can be assumed that crypto will take over the fiat money in the near future.

If the success of crypto currency is compared to fiat currency then fiat will be the winner for the next coming years. The usage of crypto currency is not used by everyone in the world, a large percentage of people still is not completely aware of alt coin and its benefits. If the government completely accepts crypto currency and if it becomes a medium of exchange crypto currency will become more popular.

2019 fiat will still be winner as more people are using fiat.  however as years go by, people will slowly learn to use cryptos.  institutions will also evolve into using cryptos and this will eventually force people to adopt to cryptos.

We are always with crypto currencies. Trading with crypto currencies is now easier, faster and more transparent. Everyone will accept crypto currencies one day

The only winner will be bitcoin.
Because this is the year of bitcoin, the bitcoin is facing its biggest crisis, and bitcoin is losing trust.

2019 the year of Battle between cryptocurrencies and Fiat Currencies.

Who is the winner?

Well, I think both of this are on equal ground. If we say FIAT then without doubt it would always be useful even in the next few years. If we say cryptocurrencys altcoins then we will surely have an eye on it.

2019 the year of Battle between cryptocurrencies and Fiat Currencies.

Who is the winner?

I do not think that this battle will happen in 2019. Crypto-currency needs daily use to at least somehow be able to compete with fiat currencies. I do not see how crypto currencies can win now, because no one except speculators and investors is using them.

[xminer2014]

No competition yet, altcoins don't work as a currency yet, nobody wants a currency that changes in value by 10% every day.

[lusiaga]

crypto or digital currency does have a high technological advantage and innovation. But in addition it also has a risk that is not less high and can not be used by everyone. In contrast to paper currency that is easy for everyone to use, it is recognized by each country issuing it and its value can be adjusted or supervised by the competent authorities. So until now it can not be said that the crypto currency is better than fiat currency.

[DanyJr]

Well that's a difficult question. FIAT is issued by government and is declared legal, but there's also a large amount of people who depend on the other way, as in the electronic form, where cryptocurrency is also included. I'm not sure about 2019 but by some years cryptocurrency will definitely hold an essential position in people's lives.

[bigdude]

fiat have it power to win this match. Everyday, everything, investment that we all need fiat. Once you invest into crypto currency almost people still compare it to fiat that why usdt, tusd was born.
Fiat is the ONLY legitimate one by Government so altcoin can't compare with it.

[BogdanGFTP]

We live in the "usability" time so every product should done user friendly. If cryptocurrencies will not become closer to standard user of financial services they will lost and fiat will be the winner.

[avrona]

depending on which side we judge. fiat money we use in everyday life, fiat money remains the choice but if for investment or tradding it seems crypto is better.

[Nevermind344]

Strange question, In 2019 fiat currency will definitely be the winner, and in 2020-2025 too, with no doubts. Maybe later... And i know that 99.9 % of forum members are here to gain some fiat via cryptotrading/bounty campaigns/investing.

Who is the winner?

Why need winners and losers? Cryptocurrency and fiat money can easy exist together

2019 the year of Battle between cryptocurrencies and Fiat Currencies.

Who is the winner?

Don't compare the crypto currencies with fiat money for now because crypto is still very early in phase so it needs few decades to compete with the fiat money.We need to compare the growth of crypto in this year,until now it is not been a great year for the crypto currencies since the prices were still hard to recover from the crashes happening all the way since January 2018.

[Tearz]

Obvioulsy won't be a battle, fiat always will be winner. Cryptocyrrency had a not a good times now and probably it won't stop in next year, some of country banned crypto. So fiat won this already.

[funex]

i see cryptocurrency as the winner , this is because the disruptive technology has a lot of advantages over the FIAT currencies. No 1 of it being the DECENTRALIZED AND IMMUTABLE features in cryptocurrencies. for Fiat government policies wont ;let banks and other financial institutions do their work without their intervention.
