The Bitcoin society

[mk4]

I think the quality of Bitcoin society will always continue to be better than ever. Yes, there are still people who think Bitcoin is just an investment tool etc. . But in time, the number of this kind of people will be much less than now.

Not only that, a lot worse— A LOT of people still think that bitcoin is a scam and/or a ponzi scheme even if they didn't spend a single minute in actually trying to dig deeper into it. That one fact itself is huge enough of a proof that it isn't "too late" to get into bitcoin.

Yeah, it's obvious that not all society will accept cryptoccurrency because its country don't know the benefit or values of cryptoccurrencies especially bitcoin, some societies taught bitcoin is a confidential avenue or proper opportunity to scam people " the answer is no.
Previously like two years back some countries was against bitcoin but now many countries has legalized it now because their informed concerning cryptoccurrency.

I'd rather call it the crypto community which comprises of bitcoin maximalists, shitcoin maximalists, and those in the middle. In this community, you see a lot of infighting. One group accusing the other crypto as scams and insecure. The other group counters and calls the other as old tech  

Well, most societies always have different groups with different beliefs in them, and it's rather normal tbh. It's actually what makes up growth within a community. Not all societies can be accepted by everyone, but at the same time, they also can't deny it's existence, so it's actually just better to converse inside the society rather than argue about others what makes your society better. If they wanted to enter, let them enter, but if not, there's no need to persuade or force them to.

Most of the others who don't even want to enter are those who absolutely know nothing of it, or those who think of it as a scam, both of which are just ignorant people tbh. As for those in it for the money, well, they can be a part of it I suppose? They know of it, accept it, but just think of it as an investment though, so they may be described as the ones in the middle, halfway in the society but still hasn't fully entered it probably.

Not all society are accepted and approved by the world, nothing ever satisfy the whole public , this means nobody can have the same view about the word BITCOIN,
To some it's an agenda to make money (easy money),to others it's another means of scam, and for other it is the future , a future which started with just one man , and has evolved into a society, The Bitcoin Society, a society that has produced great people who can stand out and defend it's goals and aims any where they find there self and will keep on producing and I am very happy and proud to be part of this great society ..

Whoever thinks it's a scam just shows how hypocrite they really are. To me, the ideas of those who have no idea about Bitcoin yet comment about it don't really mean anything.

The main goal of this "Bitcoin society" has changed though, and that's a bit sad. From cypherpunks and rebels we've turned into a mass of people who only have a dream of seeing Bitcoin massively adopted by any means so that we can profit off an insane price increase.

Too many are completely forgetting what Bitcoin should have really been and, instead of supporting decentralization and rejecting attempts to artificially centralize the network through stupid regulations, we're just digesting every rule we receive as is and we're getting excited over news that are actually going against Satoshi's ideas. So yeah, while I'm happy to be part of the community, it's sad to see how things change  negatively in such a slow manner you mostly don't even notice it.

I'm convinced that Bitcoin was created as an experimental project by a group of bankers. Right now it seems they are starting to harvest as many coins as they can. This is being done to enable them to maintain high volatility in the price, and thus frighten away the general public. Once you accept this, then you are in the fortunate position of being able to use Bitcoin for wealth preservation, and, if you are sensible, to use it to earn some income from trading and scalping.

[Shasha80]

If we talk about the Bitcoin society, of course there will be differences of opinion regarding Bitcoin itself. Some Bitcoin society believes
that Bitcoin should follow Satoshi Nakamoto's main goal when making Bitcoin. From the beginning it was created, Bitcoin will indeed be
used as a currency, which has received a lot of resistance from the government and banks. Then some argue that Bitcoin is more suitable
as a digital asset. Because Bitcoin is very profitable if we hold it. But the differences that occur are not to divide the Bitcoin society, but
rather the differences make Bitcoin more flexible. With so many people it will be easier to accept Bitcoin.

Bitcoin is really becoming more popular these days that we are in a pandemic and digital transactions are more important.

Hoping that more people or even the governments will see its importance when it comes to that. Bitcoin is a must to invest because there's a lot of benefit and advantages from it so the opportunity to invest to it shouldn't be wasted. Our society should adopt in this kind of technology so that we are not that ignorant towards development and evolution.

Bitcoin society is in a progressive movement and i'm hoping for more improvements in the market and economy.

To some it's an agenda to make money (easy money),

Lol! What made you think that making bitcoin is easy? Have you ever tried? It's as difficult as fiat money. Bitcoin is not something you can earn from your laptop anymore!

Well, I wouldn't agree that it's impossible - unless you mean BTC mining, which was initially possible on a regular computer, and today requires special devices. A laptop is quite enough to earn quite a decent amount in BTC if you have experience in crypto trading, participating in signature campaigns, web and graphic design, selling various things and services. Of course, it's not easy, but it's possible - well, you also earned something by writing your post

Bitcoin has been in existence for some years now and if you term it as a society you may be right in your own opinion, since it involve a group of people sharing the same mentality about money and how it is used. The world at large have come to accept the reality of bitcoin as a mode of payments and even government are working out ways to accommodate this as most states will love to adopt the cashless economics system.

I'm pretty sure OP meant that bitcoin is seen as "easy money" in an investment perspective by some people; which really isn't new due to the huge number of moonboys online.

Also, you definitely can earn bitcoin from your laptop:

1. I earn bitcoin through my signature campaign.
2. I earn bitcoin through accepting bitcoin on an online store.
3. I earn bitcoin through trading alts sometimes.

..which all 3 are done through my Dell XPS laptop. Earning bitcoin doesn't necessarily mean mining it. You can earn bitcoin like how you earn fiat, because bitcoin is money.

As BTC related to economy so there need more time to adoption in government or society. Happy sign is people are not staying home without using BTC where government ban cryptocurrency. Truly my government also not accepting BTC but many men making transaction here. So i am also happy to be a part of cryptocurrency as it has given me economically solvency. So i will encourage everybody to being aside of it.

thanks.

I think bitcoin society exists in many countries, but maybe people in that society are not the same as the other society. I think it's like some people gather in one place, such as a cafe or in a public area that talks about bitcoin and everything related to crypto. It's not like the other society which always meets each other many times or every day because people who involve in bitcoin have other things to do.

But I prefer to call those people with some people who want to have a new opportunity to make money from crypto because if I am with my friends, we are not only talking about crypto, but we talk about many things.

Those who view crypto as easy money are not really part of the community, they are merely passerby. Those who see crypto like bitcoin as a scam without even trying to learn do not belong here also, they're just spectators.

Lol. I guess I'll count myself as spectator before then as I saw Bitcoin not just a scam but also purely an illegal coin just because I heard that it gets used a lot in the deep web.
This forum is already composed of what you mentioned, although it is Bitcoin Talk, we got ourselves some boards for the alt coin holders. I guess crypto space isn't just closed to being a forum.

We must acknowledge that not all societies will accept Bitcoin in the same way. Since Bitcoin has not yet spread around the world, not many people know about it yet. So far many governments around the world have not recognized Bitcoin for their country. Because all those countries think that bitcoin is harmful and illegal for their country. So there is no need to disagree with that Bitcoin society is different. You can use Bitcoin as a means to do something good.

I agree. Like here in my Country, its not really spreading widely. Though there are lots of people here who knew and learned about Bitcoin, but its only in the cities and mostly are those millennials who are definitely tech savvy.
As for the Government, they are so hesitant in recognizing and adopting Bitcoin because it is more likely involved in illegal usage or scam. But, somehow they can't deny that Bitcoin at this strange time is really a big help to all the people working in this Crypto world, to the community and to the economy as well.

[maldini]

It is true that Bitcoin is used by different people in different ways. Judging from one side, it can be seen if a coin is ideal for someone. From the other side, it can be seen that shrimp is the biggest loss for someone in his life. Not everyone is using it just for good There are many who are taking bad advantage of it. Bitcoin is the future for those who have saved bitcoin for the future. If you want, you can do something very good with Bitcoin honestly.

[AakZaki]

Bitcoin became big as it is today because of the support of many people who believe that Bitcoin can become a digital currency that is more valuable and has value in the eyes of the world. Bitcoin is a future payment technology that is flexible and can be adapted to various sectors.

Currently bitcoin is the most valuable digital currency in the world and a profitable digital investment.

[kawetsriyanto]

Bitcoin will continue to grow and be accepted in society and in the world globally. why am I so sure? We have seen the development so far, since the first year it was created, Bitcoin has really gone through a very difficult period. Even BTC has become a controversy that is very excited in my country in 2017. But nowadays, BTC is part of us, by legalizing it as a digital asset, more and more people are involved in various activities related to BTC.
If it's related to fraud, money laundry, and so on, I don't think this needs to be touched on again because it will depend on what and who.

[strongbelive]

Not only that, a lot worse— A LOT of people still think that bitcoin is a scam and/or a ponzi scheme even if they didn't spend a single minute in actually trying to dig deeper into it. That one fact itself is huge enough of a proof that it isn't "too late" to get into bitcoin.

Agree, it's really hard to avoid such accusations cause there are really a lot of people creating scams all around the social media. They are taking advantage of what bitcoin can offer in a bad way. This is creating a certain image to those people who doesn't have any idea what it is. I've watch footage where the grab driver told his passenger that he is talking to a scammer, by that time, he already converted his money into bitcoin and send it to the caller. He thought the person he is talking to is a legit person from a credit card company, so he lost his money and the scammer use bitcoin to escape. Its true that its a red flag already if a credit card company asks for a payment in bitcoin right? So other people already thinks of red flag when its bitcoin. It has this image of being used in that kind of scams, cause its hard to trace.

The challenge is how can we inform others about this but not make them think bitcoin is scam in general.
