If you notice one thing, you will understand that the price of everything is constantly increasing. Sometimes it happens that you get your salary at the beginning of the month and then you see that the price of goods has increased compared to the previous month. When you understand this, you will think how we will increase the value of savings.
 
Then you will start thinking about the importance of Bitcoin. You may think that it would be better to pay your salary in Bitcoin instead of fiat currency. But later you see that the price of Bitcoin fluctuates a lot, then this thought also creates a problem for you.
 
We will usually see 3 types of people, some think Bitcoin as a money making machine, some think of it as a replace of money, and some want to ensure their financial security in the future through Bitcoin holding.
 
Bitcoin is a middle  between making money and an alternative to money. Where you hold it through regular investment, you will also benefit financially in the future and if the next generation adopts a Bitcoin-based economy instead of fiat currency, then we can also use our Bitcoin holding as an alternative to fiat currency.
 
The point is that making money and increase savings value are not the same thing. If you want to increase money quickly through Bitcoin, you have to do short-time trading. And that becomes a very risky and as like gambling situation. Therefore, if you use time instead of timing, you will increase savings value in the long run.
 
If a person works and saves some money and keeps it as savings in the bank. After 10 years, due to inflation, it will be seen that the money that was kept as savings has increased in amount but its value has decreased. Let's think about another person who is freelancing and has accepted the payment he receives from there in Bitcoin. According to his needs, he converts some of it into local currency and spends it.
 
Later, it was seen that after a few years , the value of Bitcoin that he had as savings had increased a lot.I know it's not right to guarantee it, but it's more likely.  If you do not use Bitcoin in this way, you will never understand this reality.
 
So I think that taking Bitcoin as making money means that the main goal of Bitcoin has not been fulfilled. And the issue of replacing money often becomes a big debate. Because many people disagree on this issue. And if a Bitcoin-based economic situation is launched in the future, then if Bitcoin is held, then its proper utilization will be done. But if we talk about increasing savings value, then it is much more realistic and logical. Because we are dependent on an economic system where currency is weak, prices decrease, rules change.

I would like to ask you some questions that you can give your opinion on.
 
1. Is the increasing adoption of Bitcoin just because of profit, or is it to get out of the current economic situation?
2. Would you accept payment for your work in Bitcoin?
3. What is the most important thing you would tell those who are new to Bitcoin?

1. Is the increasing adoption of Bitcoin just because of profit, or is it to get out of the current economic situation?
I will say it's both. People are investing in bitcoin to save the value of their money since bitcoin is a store of value. However, I'm investing in bitcoin for a long term because I see it as a good investment that will fetch me profit in future.

2. Would you accept payment for your work in Bitcoin?
I don't think that anyone pays on bitcoin in Nigeria. Only online jobs abroad can pay in bitcoin. I'm in the forum where bitcoin is used to pay weekly so why not.

Quote

3. What is the most important thing you would tell those who are new to Bitcoin
To just keep on stacking as many coins as possible till old age with their discretionary income.

From what i understand,the growing acceptance Of Bitcoin is not just about Profit... It is a result of people's gradual decline in trust in the current fiat system. In the current times, inflation, regulatory uncertainty, and excessive money printing have forced people to consider alternatives. Bitcoin essentially offers a solid alternative.

in?

In a country like ours were the standard of living is high and survive is becoming more harder by each day that passes , I will say that one reason that, has led to the massive adoption of Bitcoin in a country like Nigeria is simply due to escape poverty as it guarantees profit which can help you to get out of the economic situation of the country.Alot of Nigerians has begun to realize that the present economic situation needs contemporary solutions which Bitcoin offers that.

Yes, I agree with you because many of us Nigerians are beginning to realize that there is a need for a contemporary solution to the unethical money management in this country and Bitcoin is providing that to Nigerians. Instead of storing cash in Naira, we should replace it with Bitcoin, that is, invest in Bitcoin because at least we will be guaranteed to make a profit from it. So if we can get financial freedom from Bitcoin investment and if there is an opportunity to make money by investing in this electronic currency, then we should choose that method. It will even help Nigerians like us get out of the adverse economic situation, but everyone must invest according to the right process.

1. Is the increasing adoption of Bitcoin just because of profit, or is it to get out of the current economic situation?

Maybe it is because of profit but not just because of it, you know bitcoin investment offers both..so I think it works the two ways.

2. Would you accept payment for your work in Bitcoin?

Sure, I’d work for real money not “the money that someone can print out of thin air”.

3. What is the most important thing you would tell those who are new to Bitcoin?

Understand what you want to invest in by DYOR, if you understand it well it will really help you in the long run and be very patient and consistent. Be your own Bank and take full responsibility of your security.

Due to the corrosion of Fiat thanks to inflation
The world favours debt financing over equity
Debt enable one to perform and generate output more than they were supposed to.

I would say Profit
Even the digital gold narrative is coated under the profit it would bring
Hence why many first reaction during crisis is gold.

Yes.

Growth isn't usually in a straight line.

I would like to ask you some questions that you can give your opinion on.
 
1. Is the increasing adoption of Bitcoin just because of profit, or is it to get out of the current economic situation?
i think its for both especially to make profit. the large number of people or the overall number of people investing in bitcoin is just to make profit or escape from poverty or economic hardship and not holding for the long term

2. Would you accept payment for your work in Bitcoin?
sure, if li am given option to receive payment from bitcoin in my place of work, i will gladly accept it. its not a big deal. after all i am been paid in bitcoin here in btt.

3. What is the most important thing you would tell those who are new to Bitcoin?

they should be careful with their security, because failure to do that will result to losing of asset. no matter the amount of bitcoin you hold in your wallet. if your security is not strong, all your hard earned bitcoin will swipe away.

1. Is the increasing adoption of Bitcoin just because of profit, or is it to get out of the current economic situation?

Well following the current situation of the economy, I do not really think it is just all about the current economic situation but mostly to make profit. Because according to economists, there is a saying that goes "man does nothing without him expecting something in return" and by this, it shows that there is definitely something that has made many people go into Bitcoin use. We know that amidst the fluctuations of Bitcoin, it is still the biggest cryptocurrency reason be that over the years, whenever it goes up after it's DIP, it still always shakes the market. Now tell me how someone who is really ready for the ups and downs that comes with holding the world's biggest cryptocurrency will not make profit if he finally experience a rise. So I think it's mostly about profit.

Quote

2. Would you accept payment for your work in Bitcoin?

Hell yeah, I will definitely accept it (Bitcoin) as a means of payment for my work because I think it will even help me to properly save up for the future. Trust me, there is some feeling that comes with having coins in your wallet and you wouldn't want to use it all. Immediately you are paid, you can just trade a particular amount of it to your local currency for your basic needs and then keep in hold the remaining amount. And that will even help you to accumulate it gradually
