GLOBAL PANDEMIC - BLESSING IN DISGUISE

[JohnsonX]

UTTERLY STUPID and FALSE...

BitCoins price CRASHED in response to the Economic Crisis...  Yet you think a crisis will be good for bitcoin.   The cashless world will NOT, NOT, NOT be bitcoin, it will be Federal Reserve Coin, Peoples Bank of China Coin, Euro Coin, etc. etc.

You are more than delusional in your " beliefs " ,  You are a SPECIAL KIND of STUPID.

Hard Facts

Why call him/her stupid, you don't know what's gonna happen. could be right. Just say your opinion in a civil way, after all the cashless world MIGHT be bitcoin.

This is the 1276 forum thread about "hey,the global pandemic will force people to use digital money,so they will adopt cryptocurrency" type of BS.This theory is so simple minded and one-sided and don't even want to discuss it again.

Nope, this is the 2009 one..
Every time there is a pandemic, a crisis, a war there are some people who think it's going to be a global reset
There won't be one

The same people that are now washing everything like some bad raccoons in two months will enter their homes, grab a beer from the fridge jump on tier sofa and only go to the bathroom when they need to pee, and probably will not now wash they hands even then....

which cryptocurency is going to be a great beneficiary.

I wonder how people can watch themselves in the mirror after shilling in the forums so that 120 000 dead people will help their shitcoin stash jump 30 cents in value!Who is worse here, the virus or people who are using the tragedy to push their own agenda. I know the virus has no shame, but do you?

Somehow this is true we get a lot of benefits from the coronavirus even though it kills a lot of people around the world, one of the things is the air is clean again since cars that are being used in transportation are reduced.

Oh but you can contribute to this type of air cleaning yourself...Want to know how?

Sorry the premature deaths of hundreds of thousands, is not a good thing, no matter how you spin it.

Yah, that's the sad thing about the outbreak. It's never going to be any blessing in disguise for those who have lost beloved ones. But on the flip side, I understand where the OP is going with that. A lot of new stuff are going to come to play as innovations and discoveries once this pandemic is over. And cryptocurrency will definitely have a boost in all of it.

...

then what in the world are you doing on a bitcoin forum every damn day?

There are quite a number of SMART and RATIONAL people here, but they do not post a lot...   There are some guys here I disagree with, but that I respect because they are smart and post using rational thought and evidence.

BUT, I have a special dislike for STUPID, and people that post downright FALSE information,  and I call it out whenever I see it

the OP is probably seeing the situation as "you sacrifice the few to save the many". it sure is not pretty, but if this is what it takes to make people become cautious about their health then so be it. people need to learn how fragile we are.

in short, you're just here for the argument. nice

It's amazing how people who are affected are not seeing it as a blessing but a condemnation towards everyone who has touched this global pandemic. It's good to see it as a positive thing but nothing is really positive with what's happening. You can never say just look at the bright side at a person who has a special person who died within this period.

Just make peace and make sure to follow the social distancing rules, etc.

[bearexin]

The truth of the matter is this global pandemic is really changing lives and changing nations. Things that we gave little attention to like regular washing of hand, the use of sanitizers and social distancing is now a must. Some of our leaders are now building huge facilities to curb down the situation. The most important thing is when everything calms down the  world is going to view the digital currency in a different spectacle which cryptocurency is going to be a great beneficiary. Lets calm down and stay safe since we are not in normal times. There is always light at the end of the tunnel. The cashless world will be coming soon 

Every situation has who they favour, and there are those that are not favoured at all. But, I don’t really like what’s happening in the world today, it’s a bad news. Just look how this outbreak is spreading all over the world and thousands of people are dying, so I wouldn’t really call it a good thing. If it was a situation where people never had to die, then I’d say it’s nothing much.

There is no day that I don’t pray for this situation to end; I’m always praying and hoping that this comes to an end very soon, and yes I know that it will come to and end, but the question is when it will end.

The only thing I see as so called 'good' coming out of all this over the past month of it being taking seriously to create martial law in some countries, you see duerte and what he is doing to those without food , is how fragile each countries system is at mobilizing in a pandemic.
Every country from what I have witnessed has failed as a society to have a contingency plan put in place so to not have their own local stock market from crashing down around them. Sad really to see how the world really operates.
Maybe bitcoin and cryptocurrencies as a whole can flourish out of all this mess once it all subsides from a state of pandemonium. Hence what comes from the word pandemic.

This pandemic indeed provides many changes. In lifestyle, we are taught to care more about cleanliness and adopt a healthy lifestyle. For the earth, because outdoor activities are restricted, pollution is significantly reduced, we all "take a break" from our tired routine of life and learn to appreciate life more. Including economic activities, especially buying and selling, which TS mentioned. If the buying and selling activities will further reduce direct payments or cash, which becomes the first choice, of course, using e-money or digital cash transactions such as PayPal services, etc.

This is a disaster for all of us, many people have died, lost their jobs, and have difficulty making a living. Hopefully, this ends soon and we can immediately start a new, better life. Stay safe, stay healthy.

Now we really know that we are not ready with a pandemic. Just like what Bill Gates said but at least solutions are being done, but not the permanent one yet. I hope there would be the vaccine already. #FlattenTheCurve

Aside from vaccine, medicine to cure for the severely infected patients. Up until now, doctors around the world are still in experimental stage to their respective patients. Because each patient has different response to the medicine, they have to find alternative drugs that will somehow treat the disease. Just few articles mentioning potential med treatment for covid -

Cashless coming soon?

Optimistic too much about crypto's acceptance? I dont think so.Then how about considering about those traditional e-payments that do credit/debit card do?
Im not saying or underestimating crypto but we should accept the fact that majority of people would always tend to rely into those things rather than
trying up something which havent been even mainly supported worldwide.So its still a questionable thing when it comes to that talks.

[Oceat]

This global pandemic is not a blessing in disguise to me since I don't see it that way. But in the sense as a blessing in the nature I might consider it that way but I can't find the financial status as a blessing in disguise during this pandemic crisis. And I highly doubt that people would jump in to the cryptocurrency after this pandemic. Most people will choose the less risky options if they want to save than choose the high volatility cryptocurrency.

[Yatsan]

Global pandemic is a disaster man, no matter how you incorporate it with something positive it is killing people. Say that to the one that loss their love ones, it is not a fucking blessing at all. Please people don't think pandemic as a positive thing, yes! it makes us realize things but it doesn't mean that it is a good thing, it's a disaster that need a solution. Please think first before posting a sensitive topic.

[Lorence.xD]

This pandemic surely is a dire times for us but I am with you when you say that it is a blessing in disguise, if you look at it at a economist mindset, this will surely cripple a lot of markets that in turn make the price of their stocks and shares go down which is a once in a lifetime oppurtunity for people to buy more stocks or shares at a bargain price, I do not have to back up this with anything, this is just a basics in trading, buying low and selling high. If you do not believe what I am saying, you can just put your faith in the market, you know what they say about what goes up must go down and vice versa, that is how the market works, when it goes in a dump real quick, you can expect that it will skyrocket in a matter of time too.

[yazher]

Of course, there are some good things that bring this pandemic to us which is something we are not used to seeing every day in our life. but people's lives are changing fast and the most affected people are those who can afford to eat if they don't work on a daily basis. We cannot deny the fact that fear is taking over people's hearts nowadays. not only they fear becoming infected with the virus but they also fear when they lose some funds to buy some necessary needs, where they gonna get it.

[princesspoppy]

This coronavirus is very alarming and now causing many people's death. It is very scary indeed but let's look at the brighter side this pandemic has given us. Many people are now concious about each and everyone's health, many are now aware that washing their hands and proper hygiene should really be practiced. Many nations are now helping each other. Many people are showing their goods sides by helping other people in need. Many scientists and anyone else in the medical field are now collaborating just to make find solution and cure to this pandemic, earth is now recovering and healing on it's own because of less vehicles in the road, and last but not the least, people's hope and faith to God strengthens because of this virus.
But still, people are dying, it's still a very scary thing.

A pandemic will starvation and famine to those people who are poor and have no money. How come this is a blessing if people are suffering from this virus? Everyone are suffering and the government's support is not enough because they don't plan properly on how will they execute to manage this pandemic. The government should be responsible about this because it is for the safety of its people and for the people to survive this crisis. I'm not blaming the government, but they should fulfill the necessities of the people while they can't earn money because they can't go to work.

Please people don't think pandemic as a positive thing, yes! it makes us realize things but it doesn't mean that it is a good thing, it's a disaster that need a solution. Please think first before posting a sensitive topic.

It is good for the people who uses bitcoin, but not all of us here are using bitcoin, that's why the don't feel any excitement and confidence because all they are thinking is the lives of their family. It is very crucial to think that we have people who are risking their lives just to help people to recover from the virus. There are many people who are dying because of how lethal this disease is, and how people are risking their lives.

[maydna]

In any hard situation, there will be a way for us to solve every problem. Behind of this pandemic, we need to be grateful that we still are safe. We don't know how other people live out there, and I think they still struggle at this moment, the same as us.

The cashless already happen before the pandemic, and now, I guess, that way become popular among the people because people get limit when they go out, and that makes them use the online application or ordering food using an app. We need to calm down at this moment, and still clean from anything after we touch because we don't know how the virus can spread.

[Ailurophile]

Sorry the premature deaths of hundreds of thousands, is not a good thing, no matter how you spin it.

I agree it isn't a blessing in disguise we should consider the death and for those who sacrifice a lot during this crisis.
We shouldn't be so insensitive to call it as a blessing when there are so many people who are still in danger and there are so many casualties.
We are supporting the cashless society but not by sacrificing or using the death of so many people.
