I always hear the argument for capitalism "B bb BUT people won't innovate without the profit motive" WRONG

Humans want to solve problems, create, and innovate, they do not need money to motivate them.  Cavemen were painting art 20,000 years ago without the desire of money.

True scientists like Tesla, he didn't care about money it was about the pursuit of science.

Capitalism does not cause innovation, most new technology is found by government programs like nasa (internet, smartphones, etc)

Most of the time, what you say is true. But there are also people who innovate their technology in order to gain more popularity which would generate investors and that the opportunity for them to earn money. So in other words, not all people innovate for the sake of improvement but for monetary aspects as well.

It is totally wrong. For instance if I tell somebody to invest in cryptocurrency, his first question will be why should I invest in cryptocurrency. What the benefit of cryptocurrency investment. If I tell him that it is the future currency and you can use it anywhere in the world, believe me he will not be interested, but if I explain him that he can make huge profits he will take interest.

the is very true. the news coming out today are also about making money in crypto which makes people. they are not about making innovation for the future. but if only resources are free link energy and we don't have idea of possession, we might not be interested in making money anymore. but since all these are not free, money is always been the most reason to motivate a person.
Crypto involves money. If you speak about investment first comes to mind is how much money need for it so other people are motivated to come in crypto because they thought to earn huge from it. It is all about money than the development of new payment system. There is no such free because you have to work or put some amount to earn.

every person living in this world has their own goals, all are not the same, there may be some of them who consider everything money but there are some who do not care, but it is undeniable that sometimes money becomes motivation and encouraging people to live and to get it , almost everything in this world we will get only if we have money, but it must be remembered we can control the world with money but don't let money take control of you, because it will be very tiring

I think many people get motivation from money because they when they see people who can succeed and can benefit very much will surely become jealous and want to try to be like those who have succeeded so that they have a very strong motivation to be wealthy.

The situation right now is different than before because a lot of people before do a lot of things without money because they still get what they want without much money, not the same today if you do not really have money you will not get any food even just a little, so people right now motivate to do anything to get money and buy what they wanted in their lives. People's motivation now depends on money.

We should always be wary that there are different people with different views, as such there are people who will always be motivated by money, fame or power and there are poeple who are motivated by seeking out answers and solution that is why we should not always conclude that people will always want money.

I think when there s money people will always be motivated with money , because if you works even tbe simpliest form of work to anybody , if you gave him rewards especially money ,they will be smooth in doing the works ,but if do not give something and just a little thanks , the next time you ask them to work for you ,they will not mind of you ,but if you give rewards then they will be always ready to move for your work given, so money will always motivate people.

Maybe at the begininig money wasn't the main interest of Bitcoin users and since they were pioneers and it was also about new technology, new concept, new way of life I would say, motives were different. In fact, Bitcoin wasn't as worth as it is today.
With time, with Bitcoin growth and flud of new cryptocurrencies appearing every day I would say that money has become the only motive, at least for majority of cryptocurrencies users.
Which is kind of said, I would say.

everyone will be motivated by people, everyone has the right to have a lot of money, I will try to get as much money as I can, I make money only in the bitcoin forum
I think people are very much motivated by money and this is the reason so many of them invest in cryptocurrency to make big money in small time. This thirst for money has actually led people do many illegal activities as well which amounts to billions of dollars. Investment in Bitcoin is also a potential way to earn big money. So more and more people come up with their master plans and end up making as many shots as possible for ultimately this meets the assumption of monotonicity.

I agree with what you say. At present we're all to be in modern civilization, anything that's modern is usually more related to money, you may understand that what we do everything isn't free, for example when you enter a vehicle, go to the toilet for something or else except what we have.

For every investor, surely all of them expect that the investment will provide benefits in the future and can bring it to the future which is brighter for their children and grandchildren. If they, are not motivated by money there's no way they will be willing to go to great lengths to fight for the spirit of the HODL in themselves.
It is totally wrong. For instance if I tell somebody to invest in cryptocurrency, his first question will be why should I invest in cryptocurrency. What the benefit of cryptocurrency investment. If I tell him that it is the future currency and you can use it anywhere in the world, believe me he will not be interested, but if I explain him that he can make huge profits he will take interest.

Well, if you ask a random dude on the street who doesn't have a slightest clue what investing is all about, you may in fact receive such an answer. But if you ask somebody who doesn't just know about investing but actually tried it out and successfully at that, he will ask you how much he could earn by this investment as it is clear what investments are for - for earning money and making profits. And making profits goes hand in hand with expansion in application in the real world simply because profits have to come from something real, they are not popping up out of nowhere.

You're right, so much motivation is earned in addition to money. but, I think everyone is motivated to be rich, and because of that we always work hard every day. and of course money is the target of that. but sometimes a high rank is also a good motivation.

I agree with some of your statement but it will never change my mind people are still motivated by money. Without money, I wouldn't be where I am right now ( practically thinking) I wasn't only motivated by greed but also with a passion to succeed and that includes money.

The situation is the opposite of what you're saying, I think people are motivated with money. We can point out that more money is offered to people in every aspect of our lives as more working power, or people are trying to reach higher ranks to get more wages. It is also a fact that the work of people with higher budgets has always been a priority and that these people are given extra dignity because of their money.

Nowadays most people are only work because of money, they do anything just to earn. In this world money is powerful because if you have a lot of it your also powerful, that's why many people are getting interested in cryptocurrency because to it they can get huge earnings through it. Also I think people get motivate to work because they they can get money from their hardwork.

I don't agree with the OP. The main motivating factor for humans in this world is the drive for money. Even the knowledge or education you seek is with the goal of having better earnings in future. Take away money, almost the whole world will be illiterate.

That knowledge cannot be bought with money, but science can make money, some people must have the curiosity to find something that they don't know yet so that with motivation is a way to reach it. Just as small creative ideas make us think of ways to make our work easier and useful for our life's needs and from those needs to make results like money.

People are all motivated by money that is why we are all working hard for it, there is no reason for us not to be motivated by money even in crypto that is why we should have enough money and crypto that we can use in everyday and in the future.

Truth is that there is some people motivated with money and some that are not. So there are different motives for success in people, saying that it it is not motivated by money is true in some cases


Well i think the same way, although not all people are being motivated by money but majority of them are being motivated by money, as of this mordern times, money can do everything, it is the powerful thing that we must have in order for us to survive.

Yes, brother. Most of the people are greedy by their nature. When they feel the taste of money, they want to get more and more dollars. Now, many of them deal with the cryptos.
