#4098Lightning network is great but BTC isn't the currency you want to be doing daily transactions in. There are many faster and cheaper cryptos to use.Comment -

What are other cryptos that are still cheap to transact with but have widespread adoption currently? LTC, BCH? Guess ADA and Doge as well?Comment -

#4100that is correct.
I am not complaining about it, I made a good chuck of change off of it and it still can recover and go to 60K again. Or it could go down much further. It just doesn't make a lot of sense that its so slow and it costs so much to send. The exact opposite of what it was supposed to do and yet it went up to 20K, then down to 4k and then up to 60K and now under 30K again. Crazy stuff.
People in El Salvador are not liking this.
There is no "valid reason" for the price of these coins to be $1, or $60,000!
I think some of the huge gain in price was a bunch of losers who have no idea about investing started buying bit-coin and other crypto with their free money stimulus checks thinking they were going to be gozillionaires in two weeks. Then, just like the Gamestop fiasco, when they start losing, they start panic selling because they have no idea how to invest, they have no idea how to do anything but lose.Comment -

#4101Yea definitely terrible for daily transactions. Basically, the only type of transaction I think the base layer beats currently is sending wires through Banks. Maybe credit card if your worried about chargebacks and disputes.

#4102this is just so wrong to view this subjest this way . back in the days , only people that were good at programming were the ones using computer. you had to understand commands . nowadays you do not need that . everything is happenning behing curtains . you got whole solutions builded on top of those commands . it will be same with crypto . you can already spot the difference in using it now than 3 years ago , 6 years ago , 9 years ago . you will also have great transaction systems , it is just a matter of development. as a matter of fact whenever you are using swift transfer it is another layer solution for banking system . same is working vi sa and so on . I understand this scepticism that bitcoin is too expensive now , because you cannot transfer 100$ because you are paying 15$ or so on. However you need to understand it was invented for smaller number of users . it is all about updating the code or implement 2nd layer solutions , and the main idea in bitcoin as well as ethereum now it is to focus mostly on preserving network security , even with way slower improvements . saying there are not any payment solutions which are promising is just patheticComment -

I said none have widespread adoption (including btc) and that is correct
Doesn't mean it can't get there some day but as of now bitcoin and cryptos have no real world use case other than speculationComment -

#4104The one thing that stands out to be about this crypto, especially BTC - is that apparently scarcity doesn't equal higher value.
All I see, read, hear about, is this country and that country cracking down on miners. Always an article about some huge mining farm getting shut-down by a government somewhere in the world.
Along with articles or people always stating that a majority(I think I've seen reports as high as 90%) of all bitcoins in existence are owned by like 1000 people.
And yet, the price has kept dropping since it's all time high.Comment -

Like with the banks saying they're "exploring" or "creating" a new branch to "invest" in crypto - to me that means they're probably just looking into it more in order to see if it's feasible to create their own blockchain, as well as for tax write-off purposes.
Because what's stopping the big banks from just creating their own blockchain(s)?Comment -

Also wouldnt buy quite yet either. We could go down to 20k, idk........but I always wait for clear reversals before buying. I dont get the bottom but I always dont buy then it dumps further. In 2019, I didnt buy at $3000.....I bought back in at 4000-5000 when it sent a $1000 candle and I knew it was safe again.Comment -

#4113YES to all this! And since the point of crypto was/is to be able to make CHEAP and anonymous transactions, then what reason is there for it to be an "investment"?? And what reason is there for it to go 2, or 5, or 10 times up (or down) in price/value in 3 or 4 months? I don't think there is any reason for that. Hell, just set the price of a BTC or LTC or ETH at a certain amount and leave it alone and let people make cheap transactions with it! But it is too late for that now.

I dont ever see much talk about it. Big names behind it IBM google etc... But not shown nearly enough love? I think anything under 20 cents is a good buy for a long term hold.on this oneComment -

We know he is not a moron, so he doesn't have that excuse. So it has to be he is scammer or just and egomaniac talks shit without researching and doesn't care about the people (many youngsters like my nephew and niece) he "promised" that DOGE was going to be the peoples currency.
Then the piece of work starts claiming it uses too much power, when just one single bank (BofA) uses more electricity per day than bitcoin miners.
Guy has proven himself to be selfish, egocentric, complete douche canoe IMHO.
Not mentioning his name in the same sentence of crypto ever again would be the best move all of us on board the train could make.
penetrate him and anything he touches..Comment -
