Bitcoin is a religion

[mutrang23]

Bitcoin is like a belief with the Bitcoiner. They are people who believe in Bitcoin that can change the economy and the trend of using money in the future. Many people who are crazy about Bitcoin by always talking about good things to Bitcoin but pulling others into the market even when the bear market appears.

Yes, many market participants don't understand Bitcoin, but simply worship it. I think this is the result of a lack of education among investors. Many of the small investors just want to make money as quickly as possible, so none of them even tries to understand the essence.
Unfortunately, this attitude leads to the fact that during times of rising prices for Bitcoin, the crowds of its worshipers begin to shout that "Bitcoin is perfect", and during the fall of its price, "Bitcoin died, everything was gone."
In order to minimize this phenomenon, we need to talk more about Bitcoin and about technology. Over time, this will lead to more educated investors.

there are some people who are acting as a cult member and spreading some believe thing about BTC, but BTC is not a cult or religion, there are a lot of other people who are thinking BTC as investment, or thinking BTC as scam, or thinking BTC as a currency - you cant insult their concept by tagging BTC with some cult freaks.

Bitcoin is clearly not a religion because it is related to money, namely digital currency designed to be used throughout the world, with a peer to peer system and decentralized so it is very efficient because it does not involve banks.
The thinking of bitcoin is that religion is very stupid, does not use logic and always assumes that what is believed is religion. With this it is clear that bitcoin is bitcoin which is digital money.

Read the Bitcoin "investors" in this forum and you always see them say the same: "I believe..."

- I believe Bitcoin will go up
- I believe HODL is good
- I believe we will see adoption
- I believe it will go to the moon

and so and...and so on.... and so on

You have no understanding - only belief

Therefore Bitcoin for many people in here is a religion - it is about belief and not about facts and understanding

And religion is an extremely poor investment strategy

Lol - Religion is a poor investment strategy   

Na, not at all... You need to believe in what your investing in - otherwise your just a shmuck.

And typically - people are obsessed with making money. I don't think it needs to be a religion type deal to want to "Believe" your investment will pay off

It isn't fair to limit bitcoin and relate with bitcoin or other cryptocurrencies. From my understanding some used to segregate and stay away.

There were users who have questioned is bitcoin halal or not. It is upto them, when something is used for good there is nothing to complicate it relating with unwanted controversial links.

Bitcoin is not religion, about many people keep trusting bitcoin will be on higher price is not the same with faith or your religion, just optimist and hope bitcoin could growing up to higher price because have at the higher position about last two years.

[Pagri]

In reality, those elements that you consider proper to a religion are no more than properties common to all human beings, when they cling to the fact that things can be better in adverse times.

There is a natural tendency in humans to cling to hope and become a defender of their positions, even if reality shows that things go in an opposite direction, and this also applies to many bitcoiners.

Bitcoin can indeed provide a very useful advantage for changing financial conditions for the better, indeed from the benefits it can provide pleasure but if you consider it a religion it will be very excessive.

In my opinion "bitcoin" contain many liberal ideals and for this reason it is becoming a symbol of the future, of "tothemoon" and of hope.

That's exactly right, it's too much when we consider bitcoin as a religion. bitcoin is a financial system that has a level of digitalization that is so sophisticated, we use bitcoin to facilitate financial transactions every day. Bitcoin will continue to grow and will have a huge market share. Bitcoin is a revolutionary in the financial system in the world, let's use bitcoin together and we will feel the benefits when the price of bitcoin continues to increase.

Bitcoin is not a religion if are in your mind it's of obvious bitcoin is the form of money lol, people say I believe or what so ever because they trust the pwoer and capability of bitcoin as a new currency.

[anodyne]

Well all I can say about this is that, Bitcoin is same as with the concept of a religion but we cannot totally say Bitcoin is a religion, just the concept alone. Religions believes in a certain god they have in, but bitcoin are believing that it will change to a much more better crypto market status and will eventually be used globally world widely.

Actually, from the religious side, it is not recommended to invest in something that is not clear (understandable) because it will make us lose because we cannot understand everything, so if we do not understand the opportunities and risks of investing it is better not to do so because it will bear bad things .

[Bitcoindigger02]

Many discussions around encrypted currencies and related block chains have become increasingly toxic, and it is increasingly impossible for well-meaning people to have technical discussions without being attacked. With the discussion of real flaws, it has become a common practice for those flaws destined to fail in other environments to be immediately judged as heretical without any factual analysis, and the participation of well-meaning people becomes extremely expensive. At least some people are aware of extremely serious security vulnerabilities, and they choose to remain silent because of the highly toxic environment.

What used to be driven by curiosity, expectations of learning and improvement, creative feasibility, is now driven by blind greed, religious fanaticism, self-righteousness and self-expansion.

I don't have much hope for the future of projects inspired by this fanaticism, and its continued spread may damage real researchers in this field for many years. Among these technology projects, some have succeeded and some have failed - that's how technology evolves. The people who design these systems have shortcomings just like you and me, as well as these projects. Some projects are very suitable for some usage scenarios but not for others. Some projects are not suitable for any usage scenarios, and none of them is suitable for all usage scenarios. Discussions on these projects should focus on Technology in order to develop the field of research; the inclusion of religious fanaticism in these projects will certainly harm everyone.

It depends on what religion your in,because we have our own beliefs and teachings ,but for me better learn firs everytime that money is involved for safe keeping

Bitcoin remains a digital asset and investment is not a belief or a religion. stupid people who understand that bitcoin is included because this time bitcoin itself is already well known as an investment

[bitbunnny]

This is too strong comparison. Although at the begininig when Bitcoin first appeared some users had the strong belief and Bitcoin was much more then just the new technology and digital currency, it was morw about the way of life and new way of thinking. But today many see it only as a profit and way how to ger the money so I wouldn't compare it with religion.
