When you start to understand how the protocol works, what it truly is, then you know can’t ignore it, but have to HODL some of your own personal wealth in it. These Bitcoins are NOT mere Tulips. Cool

Just magic but Bitcoin is unstoppable and the world has to accept it.

They can not crack down Bitcoin because it is a pioneer or at least the first successful cryptocurrency on Earth.

The bullish case for Bitcoin. Nothing is permanent in life or at least we can not say anything will exist permanently. We can believe or disbelieve it but with the Lindy effect (see in the article), personally Bitcoin has gone a far journey enough to be called as a safe asset.

After more than 10 years, it is now much safer in terms of investment, than it was more than 5 years ago. Now, we have Bitcoin Futures, Bitcoin ETFs, institutional investment, etc. Institutes not only invest but also involve more in development of blockchain industry that is very cool.

That's the cool stuff. "These are not mere Tulips", which very few understood in its beginning days. Even around the year 2017, bitcoin was much associated with the Tulip and Internet bubble. People never believed in the technology. Later on the progress of bitcoin took pace when it got multiple usage from limitations. This means earlier it is much into darknet and gambling. Slowly it gained importance as an investment/trading asset.

Nothing has grown same as bitcoin within the time frame of 10 years. Once governments were to adopt the blockchain technology, but not the bitcoin. Now those governments are with plans of adopting and regulating the usage of cryptocurrencies.

People who ignored in the past now realise missing the opportunity, and the one who ignore now will experience the same after years.

The funny thing is, all of my mates who used to ignore and make fun of Bitcoin whenever I mention it back then, is now holding their own bitcoins, if they only believed in what I was saying, they could have easily gained profit from a 4-year investment.

No one will really ignore Bitcoin as Bitcoin continues to rise not only value-wise but through popularity as well.

Not sure about him already being a Bitcoiner, but he was open-minded and was openly defending Bitcoin in a past conversation he had with Peter Schiff like a year ago. That and the fact that he already had Andreas Antonopoulos and Jack Dorsey and in the past, this is no surprise.

I have heard of Rogan investing in Bitcoin before in an interview with Patrick David's podcast. The podcast always talks about world events, the economy, and investment which Joe Rogan sometimes barges in. They sometimes talk about NFTs.

But it is true Bitcoin can never be ignored now. If you look at the value of fiat today, it can collapse at any moment. British Pound (GBP) plunges recently more than 1%. If anyone wants to stay rich they have to go Bitcoin.

Yeah, I think Joe Rogan is a bitcoiner and he has talked about it in the past in his podcast. And he even guest some bitcoiners too.

And i believed that he really understands how the protocol works and now him accepting it as payment? Not surprised, but he could set the trend for podcast industries and personalities to go and accept BTC.

So this news is based on several people trying to be funny in one of the podcasts alluding that Joe allegedly made some deal that was paid for in Bitcoin? I don't know, it seems to me that this is just a good publicity trick that results in just such discussions and articles that will appear in all crypto-related media.

Quote
During the Joe Rogan Experience episode #1728, about 56 minutes and 30 seconds in, frequent guest and comedian Ari Shaffir boasted to fellow comics Mark Normand and Shane Gillis on behalf of their friend, “Joe got a deal for over $100,000 dollars,” Shaffir said.

It’s not American money,” Joe deflected, brushing off his fellow comics’ antics. “It’s all in Bitcoin.”

I know that business people generally do not care how the customer pays, it is important to make a profit, but I also know that it is a real rarity to find someone who accepts Bitcoin directly without the mediation of payment processors. Not ignoring something doesn't necessarily mean that someone really accepts it.

Tulips were plants, not a technological breakthrough that has opened new opportunities and pathways for humanity to move postively forward into the future. But Tulips are beautiful. Cool

Bitcoin mania is totally different than Tulip mania or Dotcom mania. People can grow and harvest Tulip bulbs or create more and more Dotcom companies. However, they can not create more Bitcoin than 21M was created by satoshi nakamoto.

They can fork Bitcoin and create Bitcoin ABCXYZ but they are forks, not original and real Bitcoin. Values of fork? You can check with How Many Bitcoin Forks Are There? You will be surprised!!!

Do people actually get the forks from time to time and sell them for Bitcoin?

I'm thinking that maybe it would be a bit risky since I reckon you'll need to put your private key to access them.

They've tried their best by spreading countless lies about it but the fact will always win as the bitcoins continue to soar high, the old mainstream media who were against it are now talking positively about it nowadays. They cannot continue what they have been doing and just decided to change courses and so as the big companies and the banks that was totally against it back then. They need to adopt it to their companies or esle their fate will be in jeopardy.

As long as their interest don't align with bitcoin, they will continue with all the lies, suppression and defamation of the market because they want to make sure that their power won't be undermined by something that was believed to be useless when it was still an upstart. Probably the best thing to do is for us to ignore all of this lies and move on, they won't have any power over us. Ignoring bitcoin is close to ignoring someone who's giving you money with no strings attached.

Price of fork is significantly lower than Bitcoin.

This. When you want to claim a fork, you have to expose your Bitcoin private key. It is risky somewhat and in bad case, you can lose your Bitcoin. Don't want to claim forks, don't know how to do this, and at the end, losing your Bitcoin. It sucks!

Actually a lot of people can continue to ignore BTC.  The same way they can continue to ignore the spread of any tech into anything.
30+ years ago there were many people who would not use debit or credit cards and businesses who would not take them
20+ years ago there were people / businesses that ignored the growth of the internet
10+ years ago there were people / businesses that ignored social media as a way of contacting clients & each other.
etc.

There are also people & businesses out there today who don't take CC don't have a website or email or a facebook page.
Some of them are doing quite wall.

If we are here, we are probably BTC enthusiasts and we see things a certain way. I know I do.
And for the most part, yeah not taking / using BTC is going to be a bad thing for a business more and more as time goes on.
But, when talking in absolutes keep in mind the fringe cases.

Why am I saying this? Mostly because while doing work for a client yesterday we were talking about the fact that BTC was hitting another ATH.
He only takes checks. No cash / credit / BTC or anything else. He is tech savvy but for simplicity only takes payment one way.
As he put it, any other form of payment takes more accounting and time and it's not worth the incremental increase in business, since he is strictly B2B.

We as a group tend to go out and convert people. Some people don't want to be converted and we have to accept that and move on. And not discard their views or the way they do things since it works for them. Fighting that will not look good for us a as group.

-Dave

I still cringe,when I see news about some celebrity getting paid in Bitcoin.I don't know why do I have to cringe.
Maybe I will have to get used to news like these. Grin
Bitcoin is no "magic internet money" anymore.Bitcoin should be treated with respect,like any serious financial asset.
Joe Rogan is a pretty cool guy,but I kinda lost interest for his podcast.Currently,most of his guests aren't that interesting to me.
There's a possibility that he was joking about getting paid in BTC.He was a standup comedian after all.
I know about another former standup comedian having Bitcoins and trading crypto-Chris D'elia. Grin

Joe Rogan, the world’s most successful podcaster and comedian, may have accepted a Bitcoin payment of $100,000. The podcast host and MMA commentator has talked about Bitcoin in the past on his show, and has even hosted conversations with notable Bitcoiners, but accepting Bitcoin as payment marks a definitive switch in stance on his part.

When you start to understand how the protocol works, what it truly is, then you know can’t ignore it, but have to HODL some of your own personal wealth in it. These Bitcoins are NOT mere Tulips. Cool


In first glance they will ignore this but once they see that many people earning huge money from it for sure many people will start to listen on what you are saying since the only thing what can possibly can the attention of the people is the money and for sure many want to gain money instanly.

And good thing that the most successful Podcaster is considering that knowing how big the influence he is and for sure he can convince other people to try and join on this industry.

The secret truth is they don't want to miss the Bitcoin train that has already started a long journey and discovered a new ATH after a few days. Before those who were against Bitcoin and lately entering Bitcoin I don't this they are interested in Bitcoin protocol actually. They didn't imagine that Bitcoin could reach in current position.

Anyway, it's good when a well-known face enters Bitcoin. No matter why they are in, the matter is they are adapting Bitcoin somehow. So still it's positive for the Bitcoin community.

Bitcoins since 2009 have died many deaths and at the same time have always emerged even stronger. Finally with the people accepting it more and the government using it as a tool to not only earn more taxes but also incorporate something new in the age old financial system is making the prices sky rocket. Be it the usage of cryptocurrencies like bitcoins in Gambling during the pandemic or be it the solution of some of the problems that fiat encountered, we are sure in 2021 that by the end of this year, we might encounter even new heights.

Just now people who fought against bitcoins for long are selling their gold and investing in Bitcoins, everyone knows what the hype is about and is not missing the train for sure and therefore I do believe what you said is right. If someone does have some extra wealth that they could use for the future then they should definately invest it into bitcoins, the profits would be incredible and undeniably high.

I don't think anybody is "ignoring" Bitcoin any more. Like today if you mention Bitcoin to anybody in real life, they'll definitely stand up and take notice. At least till the bull run continues. Even if the bull-run abates, people will still try to get in. They have seen it go through too may revivals to completely ignore it.

What I feel like asking is whats next? Who are the most prominent voices in crypto now? It is no longer only Bitcoiners or "maxis" as they are called on Crypto-Twitter. What about the fact that everyone is getting legitimacy in the name of "regulation" now. Is it a good thing or a bad thing? And finally, When Seastead? @Theymos @Vod @QuickSeller @nullius
