Humans have evolved a natural animosity for one another through the millennia as a result of individual differences and cultural practices. To this day, countries detest using other countries' currencies because they do not like how their economy is run, they dislike how others model their money, and they dislike society in general. Bitcoin, on the other hand, has united more people than they have hated each other in decades. It has only been a decade and a few years since its origin, but it has done what many have failed to achieve in many years. Apart from alleviating poverty, these are some of the things bitcoin has done for humanity.
1. Zero Tribalism: Since the creation of bitcoin, every investor has preferred to stack satoshi to their wallet rather than attack individuals who disagree with their motive. You will hardly find two or three people insulting each other because of tribalism, which is even a common thing you find in our traditional finance when people disagree with each other, but bitcoin is the currency that was developed to fight the failed governments rather than people attacking each other.
2. Built courage among others: This is nothing new to anyone who has held bitcoin; it is not simple to hold, but if you have managed to retain bitcoin for a long time, you will find it quite easy to navigate through life since bitcoin has been through many ups and downs and has always survived. Bitcoin teaches patience and perseverance, and if you pass its trial, you will go through subsequent stages of life.
3. Bitcoin has unite different cultural Background: Even on this forum, many individuals have become friends over the years, this is what bitcoin represents and will continue to symbolize till infinity. Bitcoin has touched several aspects of technology from various nations, beginning with youtubers, content creators, web designers and developers, and graphic designers.
4. Bitcoin, the legendary poverty elevator: If you bought $10 worth of bitcoin in 2012 and have managed to retain it till today, regardless of your financial situation, you should be eating well and staying healthy, and possibly taking a break from your time-consuming work.

Bitcoin is a currency built on a novel or even a futuristic technology, which has lots of utilities and features that makes it stand out, beyond these however, it doesn't do much. Bitcoin is what the holder deems it to be, either a speculative asset, hedge fund etc, it could also build investment skills and connect investors, but we should not generalize this as a feature. 1. Zero Tribalism:
2. Built courage among others:
3. Bitcoin has unite different cultural Background:
4. Bitcoin, the legendary poverty elevator:
• I do not see the correlation between Bitcoin and tribalism • Bitcoin has surely added some qualities to holders who survive bear markets on investments, but this does not mean it builds courage, • Not nearly as much as the internet or social media • A lot of investors have panicked sold and lost amounts they put in.

Bitcoin maximalists are attacking shitcoins and banks all the time. And even inside Bitcoin community there was a large schism when big blockers split off to start their own coins. 2.

Bitcoin is just a currency, stop inventing some magnificent and unrelated properties for it. 3. Bitcoin has unite different cultural Background: Even on this forum, many individuals have become friends over the years, this is what bitcoin represents and will continue to symbolize till infinity. Bitcoin has touched several aspects of technology from various nations, beginning with youtubers, content creators, web designers and developers, and graphic designers.
There's nothing remarkable about people from different countries having a common interest, it happens with every hobby these days. 4. Bitcoin, the legendary poverty elevator: If you bought $10 worth of bitcoin in 2012 and have managed to retain it till today, regardless of your financial situation, you should be eating well and staying healthy, and possibly taking a break from your time-consuming work.
And how many poor people bought $10 worth of BTC in 2012 and held it to this day? Dozens?

I disagree with them. Bitcoin is the biggest cryptocurrency. The first successful cryptocurrency on Earth and we can not deny its importance in the evolution of blockchain technology and the crypto space. However, it is unfair and unrealistic to say Bitcoin is here to beat banks and altcoins or to replace banks completely or to kill altcoins. In any aspect of society, we need multiple components to fight with each other in order to create motivation for growth. Without banks, we don't have Bitcoin. Without Bitcoin, we don't have altcoins and so on. They will co-exist in human society. Bad projects will die definitely.

Without Bitcoin, we don't have altcoins and so on. They will co-exist in human society. Bad projects will die definitely. Bitcoin couldn't appear earlier due to the lack of infrastructure, especially the Internet. I would remind you that the first electric cars appeared 100 years ago but they failed because it was not the right time for such a discovery. Bitcoin appeared at the right time, and its success will be decided by the free market. Since states and banks can't control bitcoin, it's obvious that bitcoin will remain an alternative currency in the world. It's not realistic for bitcoin to become the world’s major currency due to a lack of central control and legal protection for investors. I don't think it's impossible that some altcoins will replace bitcoin as the most important cryptocurrency in the future. As for the unity of the people, I think that the people have never argued about different currencies but about the issue of statehood, borders between states, religion, natural resources etc.

Humans have evolved a natural animosity for one another through the millennia as a result of individual differences and cultural practices. ... Bitcoin, on the other hand, has united more people than they have hated each other in decades. I don't see it, sorry. A digital currency is not going to help and settle conflicts and cultural differences. It can't resolve racism or nationalism, and doesn't stop people hating other cultures, religions, skin colors, you name it. The interest in Bitcoin hasn't done much to help Libya, the relationships between Palestinians and Israelis haven't changed for the better, and it didn't stop the war between Ukraine and Russia. Travel, education, understanding, and dialog are all better ways to get rid of hate. You hate a nation or a country, go there on holiday with your family or friends. Meet the people, try their food, swim in their waters, and maybe fall in love. A pleasant experience can change you and make you a better person. If you are man enough to admit you were wrong.

Bitcoin have nothing to do with tribalism. I don't really understand when you mentioned tribalism. Bitcoin is or does not belong to a particular tribe or a particular religion. Bitcoin is a digital currency for as the world is concern. I think you are new, you just got to know about Bitcoin. Make findings about Bitcoin.

What he meant is that all people that are into bitcoin are united and have the same way of looking it at, which of course is not true as there are people who think that BSV/BCH is the real BTC etc. First post in this topic really made me cringe, trying to give Bitcoin some magical properties and squeezing couple of merits while doing so.

Fact @Pmalek,yet more people are being scammed, people hoard vital information concerning Crypto Currency and Bitcoin. Illegal stuff's such as hard drugs are sold easily with huge sum through this. The truth is madder than fiction you know.

Bitcoiner and altcoiners aren't in good terms, same with the government etc how then do you mean we have been united, that's just a small percentages. The world is still the way it was before the creation of Bitcoin, nothing has changed. Poverty ratio is still on the increase etc Bitcoin wasn't created for any of those purpose you wrote above, Bitcoin was created to even the playing ground, in the sense that the elites no longer has a higher advantage over the general public. Bitcoin was created to give the power of finance back to the people through decentralization. So far Bitcoin has done this perfectly but our greed and hunger for control is what is destroying all the ideologies of Bitcoin. Why should another inferior Bitcoin be created if not for the selfish desires of humans. Lets look at the choices of those that have benefited from the opportunity of knowing Bitcoin from the early begining. They leave the system to go launch their own coins and start downplaying Bitcoin, how is that different from the circular world.

4. Bitcoin, the legendary poverty elevator: If you bought $10 worth of bitcoin in 2012 and have managed to retain it till today, regardless of your financial situation, you should be eating well and staying healthy, and possibly taking a break from your time-consuming work.
In actual sense you are right because it's a long time investment, but the only investor that can keep a coin up to twenty to twelve years interval is an investor that knows basis of cryptocurrencies especially bitcoin, because from my perspective it's only people that knows the values of bitcoin can as well keep coin for long time period, some people always inquisitive to sell out their coins whenever it approaches to little level profit, but not knowing that the longer coin stays the longer the profit.

Bitcoin has united people. Bitcoin has addressed poverty. Bitcoin has zero tribalism. Bitcoin builds courage and makes people patient and teaches them perseverance. Bitcoin symbolizes cultural unity. Bitcoin makes world peace. Bitcoin solves inequality. Bitcoin eradicates injustice. Blah blah blah. Stop building a religion around Bitcoin! If Bitcoin and you would still be around after a hundred years, you will see that disunity, poverty, tribalism, injustice, and so on remain.

Firstly Bitcoin is no poverty eradicator, that's some wrong misconception which is why people assuming immediately Bitcoin is been adopted by a country that the economy of the changes, no they don't. Bitcoin is just another currency but instead of it been as centralized as the rest, it's decentralized with its unique features of been finite (has a limited supply,) which catalyzed the increase of its price and tends to be used as an investment vehicle. Bitcoin is one of the simplest things out there to get into, Immediately you have knowledge on how to send and receive Bitcoin, you're good to go and if you intend to be an investor then knowing how to store and protect your investment safely is the only thing you need to become a long term investment. This means any one can be an investor and you don't have to understand how to cross all t's or dot i's before you become a long term Investors. Infact those that have profited the most from the industry are those that just bought Bitcoin because the love the ideologies it brought and just held strongly over the years and today they're millionaires.

Illegal stuff's such as hard drugs are sold easily with huge sum through this. The truth is madder than fiction you know. I am not sure what you are trying to say with this post of yours. Are you saying that Bitcoin and crypto makes it easier to sell and profit from the drug trade and other illegal ventures? If that is the case, let me ask you: Did Pablo Escobar and the Colombian drug lords accept Bitcoin or was the payment method something else? Oh, it was USD. Was there any corruption in governments before we had Bitcoin? Did politicians, wealthy businessmen, athletes, etc. ever launder any money and didn't pay taxes? What about human trafficking, pedophilia, illegal arms trade? I can keep going... When someone mentions the USD or EUR, no one says that it's a currency for illegal trade that should be avoided. Why would the rules be different for Bitcoin?
