Whose job should be more appreciated about Bitcoin widespread?

[dataispower]

I've always wanted to ask this question, I don't know if it sounds funny or unintelligent, not actually trying to downgrade anyone's contribution to the open network whose existence has impacted our economy, everyday life and internet connections. So, it dawned on me to ask this question Whose job in the entire Bitcoin history deserves the greatest accolades?
1. The minners
2. Influencers
3. Centralized exchanges
4. The users
6.  Other please specify.

I do think the one's we are lacking in this list would be :
1. The inventor
2. The whales
3. Media ??
( 'No publicity is a negative publicity' - someone)
4. People here on Bitcointalk!!!
5. People who are early adopters of Bitcoins, not only that people who are now willing to accept Bitcoins as a form of payment in their businesses and shops.
6. Government with friendly environment for cryptocurrencies like bitcoins etc..
I think we can keep adding a lot more people in the list. At the end of the day it's a cumulative effort.

the answer is everyone include @fiulpro says to

event the goverment and media sometimes hate about cryptocurrency but with them says so some people get attracted to

Of course nobody could replace the role of Satoshi who is the one who made Bitcoin. The next people would be the likes of Hal Finney and other early believers of Bitcoin with whom even Satoshi corresponded and consulted. There are also those who contributed to Bitcoin's development. They are also the reasons why Bitcoin reached its current status. And then there are the miners. Credits should also be given to them especially those early miners. Forget about centralized exchanges. They are just mostly riding on Bitcoin's popularity to make money.

whose work should be appreciated more about the widespread bitcoin,,?? in my opinion, everything should be appreciated, starting from the satoshi who created bitcoin, then the developers, then the holders, the people who invest, and the people in this forum, including people who criticize about bitcoin, because with their criticism we can rise again and we can improve ourselves, we have to respect everything, because it is clear that without anyone who is involved in bitcoin, it is certain that bitcoin will not develop widely..

Personally, I'd say it's either:

1. The developers
2. The people who educate people about Bitcoin. (e.g. Andreas Antonopoulos or Saifedean Ammous)

Yes, most exchanges put out ads concerning Bitcoin, but there's a huge difference between just advertising bitcoin as an asset and actually teaching people why Bitcoin is needed/important.

1. Miners are workers who are getting paid to do a job. Their job provides bitcoin with security but they are still employees.
2. Influencers are jokes. Majority of them are idiots who don't even understand the topic they so actively talk about.
3. CEXes are just businesses here to make money, they aren't contributing to anything.
4. It depends on the user. Purely using bitcoin is not contributing to anything.
6. (5?) As @mk4 said, devs and those who educate people.

It is difficult to think in such a way as all participants in the crypto market have different but really important roles. If there are no miners, we will not have coins. If there are no users, nobody trades them. And so on, and so forth. But to my mind developers deserve the greatest accolades. They are very smart people and create new crypto solutions, I just admire them.

[cryptoaddictchie]

Satoshi of course and all the developers helped on this project and greatest blockchain of all times.

All thr choices such as whales, investors had indeed help on achieving value but they only use money for that one. I still applaud those who helped technically to improve bitcoin ecosystem.

Influencers helped too but they have agenda of course and will use that popularity to fuel the btc price so they can dumped anytime.

[Kong Hey Pakboy]

Miners don't want to be bothered, they know their appreciated already, leave them to mine in peace. The people that needs some appreciation are journalists that reports only the truth on stuff even if it means that they're going to be heavily criticized.

[kryptqnick]

All of them are doing something important that deserves recognition. Without miners, the whole enterprise would be completely impossible because they validate transactions and generate new coins. Influencers, I guess, are the best when it comes to spreading the word about Bitcoin, making it popular. So if that's what we're measuring, I think they're the most important people. However, without reputable exchanges like Binance, I'm also sure that many people would never have joined the market because they want institutions that signify stability and at least some guarantees. And, of course, the users make up the whole community, and probably most of us told at least some of our friends about Bitcoin, so this impact in making it popular might be comparable with that of the influencers.

All need to be respected Developers without miners without investors etc. all will be nothing .. so all are mutually attached to each other. Need each other.

[ChrisPop]

Every user and supporter of Bitcoin and the underlying network has a smaller or larger contribution to the emergence of this asset. I don' think you can possibly make a sensible differentiation regarding the importance of contributions. For example, if there miners and no users - mining would be useless. If there were users, but no miners we wouldn't have a network. Exchanges also played a huge role in scaling Bitcoin to what it is today.

To me everybody who had participated in the development and the existence of bitcoin till now should be appreciated including the users and the centralized exchange who add increased the awareness of bitcoin through ads and sici media means. All the great works of individual contributions in ensuring the safety and and successful transaction categories should be applauded. The early contributors of Bitcoin success had really gained the time and investments that had been put into Bitcoin existence from birth to the maturity stage Bitcoin had gained now.

[cabron]

The users, I guess everyone will not be that happy to participate to contribute their job if there were no users of the network. But the users also include the traders, influencers, exchanges, and all.  It's one of the users that introduces me to Bitcoin which I think is also what happens to some of us who are introduced to Bitcoin. The Casinos had contributed a lot too, we wouldn't be using Bitcoin if they were not making us bet using BTC.

[newwest]

Pointing out a specific would just be discriminating because it is just like a success of any organization is never depending on a single person because right from junior employees work till higher level each ones does their defined roles n a best manner to get the outcome and in same way be it miner or influencer or exchanger or users in their capacity and circle all tries to do their best in order to promote.

[DapanasFruit]

Aside from Satoshi Nakamoto and those early developers who worked hard and poured their skills, talents, intelligence and even some sweat and sleepless nights for Bitcoin to come into reality, I would be giving credit to everybody no matter how small one's contribution can be. And yes, those people who have been so friendly and supportive of Bitcoin including the most famous to the most unknown...this is a Bitcoin community and we are all important. And of course, the enemies, critics and bashers of BTC are also playing a role in its popularity because without them people's attention to it would not come so easy.

[yazher]

Honestly, all of those guys should get the credit regarding the result of the popularity of bitcoins nowadays especially the influencer who has complete trust in bitcoin. remember those guys don't even know Satoshi Nakamoto in person and didn't get anything in return while doing their job. Most likely they know the real opportunity it can give to those people who are in need of it. Personally, I learned about it with the help of the users in this community the number one source of real knowledge when it comes to Bitcoins and any other cryptocurrencies.

I don't think it is the responsibility of miners or exchanges etc to spread awareness of bitcoin. We all are the ambassadors and should tell about bitcoin in our society. Every person should effort to teach about bitcoin to his friends, family etc is a great job indeed and we should never stop this awareness. We are lucky to know about this technology first and now its our responsibility to spread it too.

Actually it is everyone's responsibility to do, but what we are deliberating on here is whose job has the biggest effort and should receive the biggest accolades and applauds? I have personally taught people within my reach about Bitcoin, Binance does, Influencers on Twitter do, several of them are still doing it. Without users, miners wouldn't be known and without miners user can't do anything on the network.
