Crypto in Church.

[AmoreJaz]

It might seem silly, but this is what striked my mind. Possibly to receive offerings in the form of cryptocurrency the pastor of the church could've taken the initiative. So, that there is no issues with taxation and other problems. Apart this isn't the duty of the pastor. Nowadays everything is about money, they teach and preach for money and very few are truly spiritual. Anyhow in one way this seems good.

we don't know their motives, but we always welcome any means of adoption in crypto. if nothing else, it can drive adoption and interest by his constituents. it may possibly help some of his people, we don't know what good things will come about. but more then likely, some of these people will try to look at crypto market.

If Bitcoin has opportunities and benefits that can impact the lives of members of the church positively, then it is not a bad idea. After all churches carryout diverse forms of entrepreneurship and other kinds of training to ensure that members gain the right skills that would enable them increase their income. But members must be given the right knowledge about Bitcoin. They should be able to differentiate between Bitcoin and other shitcoins. Also the risk involved in dealing with Bitcoin should also be discussed and it shouldn't be perceived as a get-rich-quick scheme.

Yes, and this is what my crossed my mind as well, maybe in the future, we will hear and see priest or anything that is related to religion that they can donate thru crypto so I wouldn't be surprised. But this could be a debate as well, I mean we have seen religion being involved now in acquisition of wealth? Does it go against the basic teachings of let's say Christianity? or well, in any case if Church goer as going to buy or become a investor of crypto specially bitcoin then why not?

Cryptocurrency as a digit asset based currency is on a  daily gradually gaining the widespread acceptance as expected, looking at 2010 compared to this day 2022 the awareness and engagement has been tremendous and it's quite a welcome development despite the ban placed on it by few governments.

I came across a video that has made social media talking which shows how a crypto class was conducted by a church for it's members to be educated about the knowledge of cryptocurrency.

According to the source:
The video was captioned, "Crypto training. Proverbs 14:23In all toil there is profit, but mere talk tends only to poverty.'' According to the netizen who shared the clip, the pastor got a professional to train congregants on crypto. While boasting that such an opportunity can't be got anywhere, the netizen expressed joy that 'kingdom wealth is on the way.' In the clip, a projector is seen displaying a crypto trading chart while people listened.

Does this look like  a plus to the crypto community?   

This is a sign that Cryptocurrencies are increasingly in demand by many people, in the previous year until now, asset-based currencies have developed quite rapidly, even some of them can be made transactions like using fiat money that ever existed.

From various reasons, both pros and cons, digital currency has been so developed among people, this also shows that the process of advancing a technology is not only limited to old things, and there are many other cases related to the advantages and use of digital money as easy transaction tool

Wow, folks need to be careful with this as it could be another way of losing your coin, seen it happen to folks losing all their fiat.  It could be a good strategy for a church to put their surplus in, which isn't to be 'touched', and watch it grow over the years, but again, parishioners be wary.

yeah, sure I think it is a good thing but I just hope they don't get the idea that just because they invested in a cryptocurrency that they'll earn money. I also hope that this crypto training that their church is doing is not just a one-time thing.

Many things have become easy for everyone to do through digital currency now. That is why many people have started to like cryptocurrencies because it is easy to make transactions through cryptocurrencies with various networks that are already available. So Blockchain technology and also those related to cryptocurrencies will continue to develop because it is considered to make it easier for each user to complete certain jobs.

Everything that shows support or education about crypto will always be a PLUS FACTOR , though I dont like the concept as Church must be separated from other social things but this will add flavor to the currency increasing .

But If I am to be one of the church member , I think would feel irritated because what I wanna hear in church is something about religion and not about future currency or profiteering .

However, this understanding will only apply in developed countries, because technology and development are easier to develop there, while in developing countries they tend to think differently, where only a small number of people are involved in technological developments, Cryptocurrency in particular has been so developed for now, where many people have been involved in it, this is a challenge in doing something new, it is not impossible in the future crypto will expand to other things related to human life

[Detritus]

This is good for the crypto community. Ecclesiastes 10:10 says "If the iron be blunt, and he do not whet the edge, then must he put to more strength: but wisdom is profitable to direct". I sometimes feel that christians are supposed to be the richest in the world but I discovered that they Put in more faith than strength, more faith than wisdom. So if they have the zeel to learn crypto and wisdom to direct them, kingdom wealth is indeed on the way.

I also already think that in the future rypto will expand to other things in human life and those who still don't understand about how crypto will try to learn it gradually. The situation of each country today is indeed different and cannot be equated so that any development must be different. Including technological developments, economics and also those related to cryptocurrencies in general.
