Am I the only one having this feeling?🤔🤔 ( #Bitcoin )

[CryptoHeadlineNews]

Hey!!🤗🤗..  You are welcome..
Alright, but before I begin. Have you ever had this thought that how would your life been without cryptocurrency? (i.e I mean Bitcoin in particular).
Have you been able to find the right answer to it?
And, what answer could that be?.. (if you mind sharing)

Because just recently, after due thoughts and deliberations, I have come to my final conclusion that their is no era best compared to this 21st century which we are live in, and are all participants of Satoshi's innovation that has put smiles on the faces of many, made lives easy and money easily accessible by all at few minutes.

Because could you imagine, back in those days, for you to send money to a brother/sister who lives a distant city it normally takes hours, if not days on a long distant journey, but currently now, with just few seconds everything done.👌.. Isn't that amazing? 🤗🤗

So back to the title of this post..  
How would your life had been without Bitcoin???

Without bitcoin, not only that I would miss out on huge gains(percentage-wise), there's a decent chance that I probably wouldn't end up being decently knowledgeable in the fields of investing and finance; as bitcoin was my introduction to the bigger industry.

On the other hand, who knows. If I didn't learn about Bitcoin(or if it didn't exist), maybe I'd be doing something else like running a large successful business and would still be in a decent financial situation.

..or I could be a depressed office worker

When I was in looking for an online site to earn money to close off my debts, I was introduced to Bitcoin and this forum. So, If I were not introduced to Bitcoin or this forum, I am sure, I might have looked for some other ways to earn money online but would have ended up either by disappointment or mislead. 

But to be frank, I would have not had friends around the world sharing their knowledge with me directly here. I now have friends Philipines, US, and from other countries. Besides it, many to whom I introduced this forum and crypto, are now earning more from crypto platform which really changes their lifestyle and so on. I am really so happy to see it. So all these are because of just BITCOIN, crypto industry and yes this FORUM. I would have not seen these things if BITCOIN was not in place.

High rate of unemployment in my country, probably my life will not be good as I want it to be. I am basically online which brings food to my table, and if not bitcoin, this will not be possible.

Using bitcoin for such payment makes it easier, not only that, the transaction cost can also be very low while transferring money to you relatives outside the country.

I guess when I go back to living without bitcoin, I might think about investing the traditional way. by using assets such as houses, vehicles or livestock, which are certainly more troublesome to maintain and have a higher risk than bitcoin.

I somehow relate to what you're saying there.

I am a bit "late" investor, even though there are no such thing as being late in cryptos especially Bitcoin, since I started in early 2017. I just registered here late, because I wanted to at least read other's experiences and news about Bitcoin.
Without Bitcoin, I would probably one of the bank slaves thinking that's the only way I can transact without involving any paper money.

[Upgrade00]

If I am to assume, without Bitcoin I would have been stuck up in a country with a constantly dwindling economy and currency value, which also has lots of restrictions, so accounts (even domiciliary ones) can be blocked without notice, making saving in foreign currencies not to be a solution.
Bitcoin provides freedom and autonomy, like no other asset before.

On the education side, I have learnt a fair amount about finance from reading around the forum, such knowledge I may have not been able to acquire (at least, not yet), if Bitcoin had not led to the creation of Bitcointalk.

Before I know about bitcoin living without knowing bitcoin is fun as I am more on gaming which brings a lot of good memories but didn't able to earn money online compared to the day I know and learn bitcoin. My life wouldn't be the same as of now if I live without bitcoin being existed or not knowing about cryptocurrency. I do have the feeling what would be the outcome if I didn't know cryptocurrency especially bitcoin.

[BlackHatCoiner]

If you don't know something's existence, you aren't affected. If I had never heard of Bitcoin, my life would continue normally. I'd have remained a person dedicated to computers and willing to work for interesting projects. Besides programming, I'd continue studying economics and literature which are favorite sciences.

But, I did learn about it. I liked the concept a lot and did not believe that it truly works the way it's described. I had to dig up the technical details to contradict myself. A brilliant piece of visioning along with the way to be implemented.

Pretty bad to be honest 

Right before knowing about bitcoin, I had hit rock bottom. I tried trading forex and stocks, but it wasn't for me, as there was a lot of broker bullshit and KYC. Ooh, and some stockbrokers needed only institutional investors and not retail traders. It sucked so much.

Making money transfers or payments  overseas was also another challenge. The likes of Western Union would charge exorbitant fees 

Bitcoin changed all this. I am able to trade freely and make a decent earning and make worldwide transfers with extremely low fees

.... with just few seconds everything done.👌.. Isn't that amazing? 🤗🤗

It's been always amazing to know how Bitcoin transactions work that every one of us can publicly see the transaction on the database that is made by blockchain technology.  But I don't think it will take a few seconds everything was done, it might an hour, or if you pay a fee higher than the required amount it should be a couple of minutes.

Without Bitcoin?  Ain't know, it might digital centralize currency will always be there but as you've said there's no fastest alternate payment transaction that could be sent across the border in just a couple of hour.

Regarding the price of Bitcoin, most people will surely regret to see the market price is so high while they bought their Bitcoin.

[pakhitheboss]

A lot of things changed in my life after I joined the revolution of the decentralized economy. Bitcoin not only changed the way I thought about fiat but also helped me to understand the hidden agenda of the banks. I would not say I have earned a lot but I can surely say I have learned a lot and still learning every day. This happened only because of Bitcoin and its creator.

Who knows about the future?
Some people may have positive results thanks to bitcoin for comparing to their previous (probably) bad economic circumstances, but that has happened. The answer will be completely realistic if you live 2 lives (or have a parallel life dimension).

Because could you imagine, back in those days, for you to send money to a brother/sister who lives a distant city it normally takes hours,

Maybe you mean sending physical money?
In fact, you can do that with your bank account within 1 second of processing time, and bitcoin can do it too if you set a high priority fee

Without bitcoin, I won't be able to afford a new PC desktop, and I might be forced to use a low-spec computer that can't run most of the applications required in the engineering field, especially now that we're in the midst of a pandemic.

Or there is a greater chance that I will not be able to continue my education because most provinces here are in a state of lockdown, which prevents employment and leaves my parents without income...in short I am just a student who is just too broke...

[cabron]

Without Bitcoin, I'd be slaved by a brother-in-law who always judges me about what I do in life. This man takes a bakeshop from his aunt that defaulted loan to their family and then takes the bakeshop as his. Eventually, he tried to manage it for months, and if it weren't for Bitcoin which I could have been one of his slaves. The slaves he has revolted against him before the pandemic strikes and leaves his business.

The last bull run made me enough money to make more investment to earn as well. I work with my regular online job and earn Bitcoin from campaigns here. Glad not to take part in my brother-in-law's business. That guy has no good intention to me.

Using bitcoin for such payment makes it easier, not only that, the transaction cost can also be very low while transferring money to you relatives outside the country.

By introducing P2P cash transfer, Bitcoin has no doubt benefited many people. You don't need to wait for banks to open and also there is no worry about there closure on weekends.
I have a small online business and have to wait for days for payments to arrive in account. With BTC life is much easier, as payments arrive instantly without any cuts. I am just lovin it.

How would your life had been without Bitcoin???

I shared this story before and I'm going to share it again.

As someone who grew from a family of 5 with only a single father, financially, it was tough and challenging. As the oldest brother, all of the budget and priorities are centered toward my younger siblings especially in their needs and education. When my friend introduced to me BTC way back in 2017, it gave me the opportunity to purchase school materials and books in order to finish my college education. So, not only BTC has propelled in funding my education but it indirectly helped my family as well.

Without the convenience of earning BTC online, there is a huge possibility that I would have dropped out my education and worked as a call center agent in order to support my younger siblings.

[cryptoaddictchie]

Nice question. Without bitcoin interference on my life, I probably not able to gain some of my asset in trading and investment. I am able to provide some that arent gonna get on my current work. Yes money involved in btc is big though Im also earning a good pay with my work, I am able to enjoy the suspense and thrill of investing on bitcoin and some of those cryptocurrency. So Im not sure if Im gonna be happy without btc, if suddenly it will be gone.

No problem, without Bitcoin, it's normal, just investing, trading crypto that doesn't exist, if Bitcoin doesn't exist, if you talk about sending money that's a different story, for now Banks, ATMs are provided, it's easier to send money, it can take seconds and minutes the money you send has arrived at the destination you want, (ATM).

There is a difference between the presence of Bitcoin and sending money, it cannot be equated or a guide to the presence of Bitcoin.
Example:
Bitcoin was created in 2009, while Bank ATMs, have been in use 54 years ago, if I'm not mistaken around 1967, it was the first ATM used, since then people have been able to send money quickly, I don't think it has anything to do with sending money and Bitcoin, it's too far to explain, how Bitcoin works and how money works, it's a long story.

[jrrsparkles]

Traditional stock and gold will be my only assets if there is no bitcoin which are safe not really convenient assets but with bitcoin I am more confident since I can convert my assets into cash in few minutes and no need to worry about the banks since I run my own Bank.
