I sometimes wonder whether Bitcoin has established a religion.

This collective craziness, in my opinion, is always motivated solely by greed and the desire to increase profits. People's interest will collapse along with the price if the price goes below 20-10 thousand dollars again. Only the most ardent supporters and admirers will be left. Then, since it has become mainstream, it will be possible to discuss the flock and other theological topics when it is still too early.

You may believe in something very strict, but not everything that you believe becomes a religion.
Religion is something that you believe, you use for your daily life activities, and what you believe to implement in everything you are doing during this life and hereafter.
But, Bitcoin isn't it. This is just a belief in a thing, earning money, and then crashing can hurt everyone. I disagree.

I sometimes wonder whether Bitcoin has established a religion.
Those of us who are fixed holders of Bitcoin are believers of Bitcoin.

I disagree.
Unlike religion, bitcoiners base their "beliefs" on logic and math, not just because this or that guys say so. Imho it's a huge difference.

BS 99% of the people here can't even read code, or do math.

Bitcoiners beliefs are GREED & FEAR, but mostly greed.

Bitcoiners are not logical, this is insanity.

BTC CAP a month ago was bigger than $1.2T, bigger than most USA company's capitalization, like it gong to keep going up and suck up the entire earths GDP, bitcoiners are mental midgets.

Will technically BTC is 'cult', not a religion, where religion is recognized by society, a 'cult' is usually detrimental to the well being of its members.

Yes, real gold is not afraid of fire. There is only one possibility to hold Bitcoin for a long time, not only is proficient in blockchain technology, but also has a strong spirit of decentralization

Bitcoin believers should have read the white paper, just like Christians have read the Bible. Even if most people don’t know how to code, many people have read Bitcoin’s white paper

Lol, not really, it's not like something that has believers in it will automatically be a religion right? And bitcoin doesn't have that great establishment that will keep its followers lol, if we want to compare it to religion. Since many are willing to abandoned it as easy as it goes.
But the thing that satoshi is unknown, like god is kinda similar though lol. Many people value satoshi even knowing who he is, or even if he is really real or not. But no, i don't think bitcoin is like a religion.

Another interesting question. I am curious about how religion attracts believers when it is first established (excluding the case where parents are believers). Religion connects everyone through stories, and more and more people listen to it. Many people believed it and became a small group and gradually became a religion.
Bitcoin uses more reliable blockchain technology to connect all traders together. Now that we have formed a forum, we can completely change it into a religious organization to persuade more people to "believe".
By the way, I participated in the project you signed and they disappointed me（Irrelevant price）. I don't want to say more about the specific reasons. I can only say that his team is not very good (if you are a member of the team, I will withdraw my words).

Sometimes the good use of adjectives, nouns and vervos, together with good premises lead to good "guesses", it is also what leads some writers to create novels, short stories, science fiction, etc. Sometimes they border on the absurd, but they are entertaining.

Scientists distance themselves from the above or the science.
It is not that the above[1] is wrong, in fact it entertains and it is a field where sometimes things are so good that someone can win prizes or become a good writer, but never an prize NoBel.

Thank you for your reminder. Sorry that my mother tongue is not English. I will work hard to learn English in the future.

Those of us who are fixed holders of Bitcoin are believers of Bitcoin.
Those who try to eliminate or replace Bitcoin are heretics or atheists. What is happening now I want to call it a religious war
In this way, Satoshi , the creator of Bitcoin, can be called a god. He changed the order of the world and brought revolution.

BTC is just speculative assets which own by a large number of people and it doesn't mean it can be compared to religion just simply because the majority of those people believe in BTC's potential growth.

Probably no more than hedgefunds or the banking industry have established religions.

Bitcoin enthusiasts blame those who want to replace bitcoin because these people are willing to manipulate the market in order to benefit themselves without thinking about the consequences that may be very harmful to crypto universe as a whole. What you categorized as atheists are the guys who would sacrifice the entire crypto market to make their personal fortune grow faster, what includes defamating bitcoin and overpricing their own projects importance. I'm not saying they can't try, but to every action there is always a reaction. Of course bitcoin holders will defend the original crypto currency among all.

I think it can't be compared to a religion, because religion subject involves the spiritual world and elements which are unknown to us and to the science. In crypto's debate, arguments are purely based in physical world laws and elements. We don't rely in faith to defend bitcoin or to defend it should be replaced by an altcoin.
