What has bitcoin done for you?

[proscratcher]

Bitcoin has changed my life in so many ways. It makes transaction much easier without having to deal with any chargeback or anything. But there are still some downside because once you got scammed, you cannot take back what you've sent to a user.

If you practice proper precaution, you cannot get scammed. And as for the topic of the thread itself. I work as a freelancer and my previous employer(He stopped giving me work since Corona pandemic  ) use to pay me in Bitcoins because other payment services charge a huge amount in fees. We tried Paypal for a while but they kept raising their fees every few months plus their conversion rate is always so low as compared to the market price. So, to the answer the question. Bitcoin has helped me receive payment for my hard-work in full without losing too much on nonsensical fees.

I have learned my way through experience in buying digital items. I can easily figure out which are scams out there and which one has a potential if you buy it. The downside is, you always have the need to try it in order to know.

Bitcoin literally changed my life lol. First things first it has opened the borders for me to deal online with people from foreign countries as other online wallets were blocked in my country and also it's totally hustle free you don't get any errors or anything like that when sending/receiving the money.

Looks nice! Bitcoin is really a complement. It has an integration of learning and earning. Bitcoin or cryptocurrency give us some opportunity to explore the world of internet. It makes our lives more comfortable and easy. We transact in a fast phase to any person throughout the world as long as he is connected in internet. A lot of things that bitcoin made to me and I am really happy even until now that I am part of this community. I enjoy every lesson I have learned and use it to become productive in everyday life.

Bitcoin has opened new economic possibilities. Not only is Bitcoin a great store of value, and good investment in general, but the community surrounding Bitcoin enables people from around the world to collaborate on projects that have a massive potential for progressing the global economy into an innovative direction.

I"m involved in Bitcoin for a long time, seven years now. In that time it helped me through hard financial times when I didn't have any other options with fiat money. But it wasn't easy, I had to learn a lot and also faced the losses. However, I can say that it saved me and showed there is an alternative to traditional finances.

[Cryptocurrency Hunter]

Bitcoin has made a great payment method not for me, but for people in the future, and with Bitcoin we use even now, we can send and receive money from anywhere with one click. If this goes on, who knows what kind of technology we will encounter in the future.

Apart from give me sleepless nights, stress and anxiety, a little bit of accumulated wealth, and some trading skills!

I will not deny that bitcoin has bring to me a lot of benefits but it has also brought a lot of other issues into my life, and without a doubt stress and anxiety are at the top of that list, anyone that is an investor or a trader probably knows what I'm talking about, the price seems to be doing well and everything is fine and suddenly out of nowhere we see a huge drop in the price, similar to what is happening right now, and you immediately begin to wonder what to do right now and for the most part you only have minutes to take the right decision and if you take the incorrect one you will lose money.

I like making these threads because it's interesting to see how Bitcoin has changed people's lives. So how has Bitcoin helped you in your life?


For me personally, I use Bitcoin to accept money from people instantly.

I started joining this forum when I was still a college student and the earnings that I got from campaign signatures supplied me with law books that I am using right now in my post-graduate studies. Not to mention, growing up with a family of 5 with a single dad can be financially challenging especially that the priorities are focused more on my younger siblings.

Although the introduction of this forum and bitcoin tremendously supported the materials that I need for my education, it significantly and indirectly help my dad from his expenses. Instead of buying study materials using my dad's money, I used almost all of my earnings to supply with my needs so that he could save or use it for my brothers.

While there is nothing wrong in appreciating the more practical aspects of bitcoin like making money with it through trading at the same time it is important to appreciate the other aspects that while may not mean much to some people are what allow bitcoin to still exist and being here, the first is that it is the first decentralized currency, there have been attempts on the past to create a currency independent from government control and all of them were destroyed, if bitcoin was not decentralized believe me it could have been destroyed already.

This has completely changed the way I treat to money, there are no real regulations and its value increases everytime so it makes the game much funnier and interesting

Basically, my thinking ability has greatly increased during this time, what bitcoin has done to me has made me relevant to my society. Before the lockdown I made some good contacts with good people which had given me a good name among my equals. Although, fiats gains hasn't come yet but will definitely come as at when due, bitcoin has helped me to adapt to everyday learning. Bitcoin opened a new chapter for me and am grateful.

That is a good age and you taking interest in something that would monetize your time is really worth your time. Learning about Cryptocurrencies might be hard since you might encounter lots of scams and fraud but always keep in mind to look for opportunities that are trusted. It won't be a fast journey to earn lots of money since you are just starting. You can always read about a lot of terms within the forum and try following Alternate Cryptocurrencies because that will be a faster way to indulge yourself within the Cryptocurrency Industry that and that includes Bitcoin.

First time i got bitcoin in 2017, and I didn't believe it at first. And in november 2017 I cashed bitcoins and transferred them to the Bank.
After that,  I just believed that bitcoin is something very valuable.

You just cashed out at the perfect time so you should be happy about it, however while I am happy people have improved their lives thanks to bitcoin when it comes to their economy at the same time I wish bitcoin has improved their lives in other aspects as well, after all bitcoin is liberating, the day in which we will face another huge economic crisis is drawing near and before of bitcoin I was always worried about it thinking about the best possible way to protect my small savings, but now I got my answer, and I know that no matter what happens I will be decently protected thanks to bitcoin.

I learned control that Bitcoin taught me. Control that is not just limited to having it in my wallet and possessing it completely, but a control which stops me from gambling. Yes, BTC helped me overcome my gambling habits or it was actually addiction, but I fought it very well because of BTC.
Want to know how?
The price of BTC is the reason I stopped gambling. I have lost more than 100 BTC (I will not give an accurate number) when it was just $500 a BTC. Though a big loss, not very big if it remained there. But it turned $10k, then $15k and even near to $20k. The number became so huge I cried the whole night (I was not so happy watching BTC going this high) and this stopped me from gambling.
