The Crypto Revolution from Bitcoin to Mass Adoption

[Cryptoababe]

Remember when Bitcoin first appeared? Now, millions own cryptocurrencies. Imagine sending value globally in seconds, without intermediaries. No more banking hours or high remittance fees.

Achieving this vision isn't simple. We need better UX, scalable networks, and clear regulations. But success could revolutionize finance and decentralize economic power. There are several meetups, events, and social gatherings to teach and enhance people's knowledge about how crypto works, including Web 3.0, NFTs, and more.

Is this a crypto future you're excited about? Are there any upcoming events you'd like to recommend to others?

Bitcoin indeed ushard in the financial freedom that we need globally with high privacy and total control of the money, this is what make bitcoin to be very unique and best alternative to centralized financial system,  bitcoin also open the door for more other cryptos and that indeed is good enough reason to see bitcoin as the king of the cryptocurrency Industry with highest market and adoption.

If I am to recommend cryptocurrency to anyone,  I will recommend bitcoin as for long term and other altcoins for short term speculations.

Is this a crypto future you're excited about?

I am but not with these;

There are several meetups, events, and social gatherings to teach and enhance people's knowledge about how crypto works, including Web 3.0, NFTs, and more.

Why? it's because that they're always doing some sales pitch at the end of it. Most of these meetups and events have their own agenda to advertise their own coin launching and not actually for Bitcoin adoption. Well, that's their event and they can do and educate people as much as they want about what they are about to sell.

Are there any upcoming events you'd like to recommend to others?

None. Staying on the forum and learning from the posts of others is way better and more silent.

What do you mean by "without intermediaries"? most of cryptocurrencies are centralized, they only have few validators, so if all the validators shut down, your coins would be stuck. Only decentralized cryptocurrencies that you don't need to rely on few validators because anyone can take a part to solve the cryptographic and confirming the transactions.

Cryptocurrencies can only achieve mass adoption in terms of "investment" since the government are forcing people to use fiat and banks.

The future of crypto looks good though. We've come a long way. from regulations to manipulations by saboteurs etc etc. In terms of meetup several establishment are doing what they can to host symposiums, meetups, amas & enlighten individuals, connect with likeminda etc. I've attended a few organized by binance in Africa. Here's one I've been keeping an eye on. https://x.com/BitgetBuilders/status/1807664239861219526?t=uj3OS0qoXkAnbcNpY_A_yg&s=19. If you're in Croatia. I think you should join in and connect.

I'm rather surprised that crypto hasn't been accepted as a general payment method yet. The major reason why crypto is lagging adoption is government control. A lot of nations around the world has outright banned crypto and if found dealing in any, they are punished. Bank accounts are and seized and any banks or financial services dealing with it are punished. Even on places that have not fully banned crypto, they have created several hurdles, taxes and requirements to deal with crypto. All of these have created a sense of insecurity in dealing with crypto for some while making it difficult to use it as merchant payment for most.

To be honest, crypto isn't as interesting as it used to be. At least not to me. Maybe It is because it is not new. It has been ~15 years since bticoin's debut. Everybody knows that crypto is here to stay. The govs are adopting it too. That means crypto's future is safe. We don't need to worry or talk about it anymore.

To me, bitcoin and the other major crypto currencies are just like an office application. You use it when you need to, you get your job done and then leave it. Of course there is some price action which keeps the excitement alive but I can get that excitement from any stock.

I can't imagine any other problem which a blockchain can solve. Bitcoin solved the biggest one already.

Bitcoin has been a wonderful project/experiment to date.  I can't think of another technology or project quite like it.  In the beginning the amount of people who wanted to help push bitcoin along whether it was mining, working on the protocol, accepting it for goods etc is unmatched.  What a wild idea and what an even more wild ride.  Met some of the best people I know in this world through the connection of crypto.  It's more than just a financial instrument it's a way of life in some regards.

Bitcoin has a great past, present and future. Altcoins? Not so sure, now bitcoin is not perfect by any means, but when comparing it with what is out there, it definitely looks way better than its competitors and it does not seem as if anything will come out soon which could challenge it.

However I would recommend against assisting against those gatherings, first of all because very often whenever those gathering take place, a project is often sold to the public, and second it is important to remember that we need to be cautious and not attract any attention to ourselves, as it would not surprise me if criminals used those events to try to get potential victims they could steal from.

Clear regulations might imply cooperation with the government which is exactly what we do not want that is why we are using crypto. It is to get rid of all the strict regulations that third parties implement.

Are you talking about events as in gathering or airdrops?

As for gatherings, I don’t think bitcoin/crypto community is that big yet in my country which is why we mostly talk in platforms such as this or other social media because there is not enough for a physical event.

Well, we've seen a lot in the past that tried to challenge it and claim its throne. But none of them became close. Some were able to thrive but as we all know with altcoins, every season there will be winners and losers. Most of the existing ones are going to be out of the market when they are not maintained by their developers and the community that it has got. As for Bitcoin, its vast share of its own community is unbeatable and we've got some networks already from the big financial institutions.

However I would recommend against assisting against those gatherings, first of all because very often whenever those gathering take place, a project is often sold to the public, and second it is important to remember that we need to be cautious and not attract any attention to ourselves, as it would not surprise me if criminals used those events to try to get potential victims they could steal from.

I've attended a few in the past, that was years ago and I think they're fun to participate on it. But you'd definitely gonna expect that they'd only share some good things about the project that they're working on. You may hear some good news and praises about Bitcoin but that's to be expected and so they can insert their main goal of introducing the projects that they're working on to attract more investors.

At one hand you are talking about no intermediary, at the other hand you are referring to clear regulations. How does it work?

I am excited about the future of crypto but it's not going to be a crypto future though. Cryptocurrencies will see increased adoptions for sure. But if you are thinking that cryptos will be used as a reserve currency or will be used in global trade, that's not going to happen!

Cryptocurrency is great as a parallel economy. It is ruined if all countries start putting in some regulations around it!

[Samurai trieng]

In my opinion, crypto, especially bitcoin, has carried out a very big revolution where until now cryptocurrency has experienced extraordinary changes where the entire world community has known and used bitcoin as an investment tool, currently bitcoin is not an official medium of exchange. but Bitcoin can be a very reliable and promising investment tool in the future.

We can't just make all altcoins to be considered the same. I agree that it is not going to be that easy or known for it to be like that for the time being, but a few of the altcoins will have a great future while some of them will not have it. This is why I think it's important to realize that we are going to make some good returns. In the end, we are talking about something that is not going to be too easy to handle, obviously we are going to have some trouble, we should be just considering how to get better at it.

This is going to take some time, but at the end we should consider how to grow as well. If we do that, then we can probably realize that ETH type of high ranked ones will be there for a long time and we can invest into those.
