What motivates you about Bitcoin?

[kawetsriyanto]

I think it would be wrong to say the purpose of most people because every person who is in the crypto world and knows about Bitcoin invests only to take profit.

So, what is the correct one? 
By the way, I say "most people", not "all people".
IMHO, most people hold Bitcoin for taking profits because they are investing in Bitcoin. Well, maybe some people hold Bitcoin for other purposes like for payment tool or another else. However, we must admit that people are involved in Bitcoin because of the chance of gaining significant profits. Without this, I'm not sure that massive people will join Bitcoin holding.

It would be wrong to say that everyone is buying Bitcoin to make a profit.

Indeed. If I said "everyone", it will be wrong. However, I said "most people", right? 
There should be always an exception, I agree with this. Even if most people hold Bitcoin for profits, few people may hold for another purpose.

In essence, it's not wrong to say that someone investing in Bitcoin is pursuing profit, as that's fundamentally normal in the investment world. Furthermore, pursuing profit isn't inherently bad. It's fundamentally a key value Bitcoin currently holds, in addition to its resilience against inflation and other factors. So, fundamentally, it's clear that the majority of people buying Bitcoin today are aiming for profit. Not just nominal profit, but also value and long-term wealth preservation. That's clearly a benefit as well. So, basically, we don't need to worry about this, because Bitcoin is an asset with so many uses. So, I believe that as long as the results are positive, it's good. Therefore, I believe that people who own Bitcoin are clearly very fortunate, regardless of what they do with it. Most importantly, they know that Bitcoin is a powerful asset. So, in conclusion, Bitcoin is profitable in many ways.

Bitcoin as a piece of innovative technology in the financial industry is so intriguing for the fact that it's price continuously keeps seeing new price levels unlike our fiat currency. It's a profit driven asset and that's a major for attraction at the current stage of Bitcoin before the intent of security and privacy features. The total freedom it gives to control and protect it without the help of a centralised system is something that has not been seen since the use of currency for exchange has ever been.

[5W-KILO]

I choose Bitcoin for few reasons.

Bitcoin is fully decentralised, which has it's own space for freedom seekers like me.
Bitcoin doesn't change its stance, unlike other projects and it's why it's more reliable than others.

Bitcoin choose PoW and it's been how many years now? It never decided to change its algorithm, that's a huge plus from the creator, every promise every words was kept and fulfilled.

This is why Bitcoin is a great tool for people who wants their own bank and their freedom.

[Renampun]

If you look at the degradation of the public's view of bitcoin is changing, bitcoin is mostly today used as a tool for profit, where there are actually a lot of features or technologies that can be used in accordance with what is fundamental to bitcoin itself, such as decentralization, freedom, anonymity and many things that we can use.

Yeah, most people nowadays tend to look at Bitcoin only from the profit side, even though it still offers various features that can provide value beyond its potential price, like what you said.. there's nothing wrong with looking at Bitcoin as an investment, but it's also important to understand what makes it different and why it can be worth as much as it is today.. the technology and features that Bitcoin has, that's what makes it so valuable and allows more people to adopt it.. and for anyone who uses Bitcoin in that way, they can benefit from its utilities.

[Webutxo]

To be honest, there are many aspects of Bitcoin that attract me, but the thing that attracts me the most is its growth. That is, I have seen how the value of Bitcoin increases with long-term storage of Bitcoin. You look at those who invested in Bitcoin at least five or eight years ago, and see how much profit those who held Bitcoin have made from their principal amount today. Of course, that is a very large amount. Also, the decentralization of Bitcoin can bring me financial freedom, these things also make me focus on storing Bitcoin.

Funny we might not have seen the real growth yest that we want to see. Bitcoin is just 17 years old, by the time it get to 20 years we will be having the 5th halving and a year after it will be 20 years. It's possible that we are going to experience more growth that we have not seen. Some of the institutional investors that are looking forward to see the next bull run will not want to lose the opportunity, we may see much more than we have had.

There is a crypto clarity act, I'm not sure how that one will end but one day, it's going to be accepted and passed. If that is done, I think some investors are going to be willing to make investment to Bitcoin without having any fear. The people that don't understand about Bitcoin will all have confidence which means more confidence.

One of the biggest obstacles to motivation, in my opinion, is the money people make from it. The fact that your money can grow after you buy it is another major incentive. For this reason, most people don't think that people should keep their money in the bank in this century; instead, they should put it to good use. The more money you can invest, the more profit you can expect, and it is better to invest your money in this century.

There is more to investing it's an asset also there people that are securing there future when it comes to buying Bitcoin and it will be better to also take advantage of the whole process and that is the only way things can even be more better, when we go digital and for an average person Bitcoin is not a bad idea at all.

[Royal Cap]

Waking up this morning and I was asking myself what really motivates me about Bitcoin?

The thing that inspire me most about Bitcoin is its price, Because I live in a country where the value of money is constantly decreasing. If I keep my money in a bank there, it might have a purchasing power equivalent to $600 after five years. If I buy Bitcoin there, it might give me a purchasing power of $1500 or more after five years. Considering this aspect, it can save me a lot from inflation since its supply is limited. Another thing is its decentralization. We all know that Bitcoin is decentralized. If we keep our money in a bank, there is a possibility that our money will be frozen or held, but if we keep it in Bitcoin, we have all the control over our money. So this is another big reason. So for now, these two big reasons motivate me to invest in Bitcoin.

There are many reasons or benefits behind the increasing interest or acceptance of people in buy Bitcoin every day, through which the demand for buy Bitcoin is gradually increasing day by day. One of the reasons is that there is a great opportunity to make money by investing and holding it for a long time. In addition, the investor can purchase Bitcoin while maintaining his freedom, can store it under his control for a long time and can transaction for the sake of his needs, which gives an investor complete freedom. In addition, the other benefits that the investor can enjoy from Bitcoin are that by holding Bitcoin for a long time, the investor can avoid inflation and because Bitcoin is decentralized and the supply is absolutely limited, the investor's trust and confidence in Bitcoin has become much stronger. Therefore, from our perspective, Bitcoin is very strong and the best.

You see the most interesting part about Bitcoin is that its value goes beyond just its market price, but also about the fact that it gives people a way to transfer and hold value without needing the permission of some kind of central authority. Many people just feel the reason bitcoin is considered the best asset is because of its price alone, but they fail to realize that the real deal is in the underlying change in how ownership really works as it concerns finance and only those who really know how Bitcoin works would understand this freedom that Bitcoin hands to its users.

Yep. Everyone who do investment, their main goal is for profits. It is a proper goal, we won't spend money for investment with no profit goal. People who hold Bitcoin, they should have this same goal. Those people have a plan to earn profits in the future. Whether people hold Bitcoin for a long term asset or they just hold for taking profits after multiplying a certain amount of dollars, the goal remains the same (profits). Sure, we don't need to feel worried with this goal because it is actually the right goal for an investment.

How about we don't generalized it that everyone who do invest in to Bitcoin is doing that mainly for the goal of profit, this is because bitcoin itself stands as a store of value, some people can be in to Bitcoin because of the alarming increasing inflation rate of their local currency and consider Bitcoin a safe place against inflation of their value. People holding Bitcoin have the liberty of their own goal which can be different from the other person, the most important thing is that those holding Bitcoin should have a goal which motivates them to hold.

Don't forget to include that sense of security which we feel while holding bitcoin or transacting with it, knowing fully well that your coins can be frozen while you hold them in your wallet, and there's also security when you receive them as payment from someone outside once it has pass 1 confirmation the sender can't request for cancellations like PayPal customer, there are a lot in aspect of security that put bitcoin on the top.

Furthermore
Bitcoin give:
Financial freedom: many investors and traders are being motivated to invest in Bitcoin because of its rapid growth of price and the mindset of getting profit rapidly undermining the votalities form the stock market.

That’s exactly right—Bitcoin itself is my fundamental motivation for persevering, and I will continue to carry it forward as my legacy.
When it comes to advertising, I don’t think Bitcoin has been spouting nonsense from the start; rather, Bitcoin encourages us to think critically about whether to stick with the fiat system—which we’ve already experienced and know how complex it is—or to embrace a system like Bitcoin’s, which grants every user the freedom to be their own king or their own bank.

Bitcoin is the main way to move towards the future, people will never be able to get rich by holding one currency. But by holding Bitcoin, you will definitely be able to eliminate economic shortages in the future and there will be much less risk. Holding Bitcoin is beneficial in all aspects because huge currency inflation will slowly eat up your money without you realizing it, so if you want to save your money, it is definitely possible to save it through Bitcoin and stay away from inflation.
Therefore, it is much more important to buy Bitcoin and save it for the future. This is the only good plan to eliminate future economic shortages.

Yeah and that…
And that’s basically one of the things I admire and value about Bitcoin. The moment a transaction is confirmed, there’s nothing that can reverse it, the sender can’t just reverse it through customer support like they might with traditional payment services. This literally gives you that certainty that the coin you received is actually yours, but that freedom comes with its own cost too, cos it means you’ll have to be 100% responsible for keeping your funds secure and safe and if anything goes wrong, it’s all on you.

I share my experience with the bank. I had a fixed deposit of 500000 BDT in the bank and kept it as my emergency fund. But sadly, that bank is almost bankrupt now. The bank is not able to give money to any customer. Because the bank has defaulted on a large loan. Now a customer can withdraw 15000 BDT per month. This means it will take me about 3 years to withdraw 5 Lac BDT. I am not able to withdraw my own money for my own needs.

After falling into this situation, I decided that I will never keep money in the bank in the future. In the case of Bitcoin, my Bitcoin will be completely under my own control. I can cash out my Bitcoin whenever I want. There is complete financial freedom here. That is why Bitcoin constantly motivates me.

Nah, I actually think anyone who's been investing in and holding Bitcoin long term already gets how it works, down to all its use cases. It's not like they only know the price.
People just talk about the price a lot more and rarely get into the other use cases, because that's what matters most to them.

And chasing profit isnt nothing wrong or shameful either, like Tamaperdana said. Everyone's just prioritizing whatever matters more to them, and I'd bet you're no different, right?

We here already know what has driven us as a community to this day. Bitcoin was designed to provide convenience and freedom. Because of the freedom inherent in the Bitcoin system—which does not require a third party—Bitcoin doesn’t stop there; over time, it has become an asset with the best hedging capabilities. In terms of profits, Bitcoin owners can also benefit from it.

[KingsDen]

What motivates you about Bitcoin?

If the question is why I am motivated to remain in bitcoin, apart from bitcoin itself, I have many other motivations such as;
The government of my country;
The currency of my country;
My siblings and friends;

The government:
The politicians who eventually become the government of my country have no human sympathy. They don't come to serve the masses, the come to exploit the masses and impoverish them in order to keep them helpless, harmless and blindly loyal to them and willing to do their biddings at all cost.

Bitcoin has given me the opportunity to earn, understand the liberty and freedom ideology. So, I am never caught up under the web of the wicked politicians and their corrupt government.

The currency:
My country's currency is among the weakest in the world. If I decide to earn only in my country's currency and not convert to bitcoin, inflation will eat me up over the years and reduce my savings strength.

Siblings and Friends:
When many people are looking up to you, you'll strife to get involved in any new technology and find ways to increase your earnings.
These are my motivations.
