This is the first time in the history of the mankind that a world-wide, reliable payment system has been built which is not controlled by banks or governments. The currency is liquid and convertible into any fiat money and protected by top notch cryptography. It's here to stay.

Look at gold. Everyone agrees gold is a great store of value. Yet, the total end supply of it is unknown, it's tricky to buy, keep safe, sell, transfer, travel with, etc etc. Bitcoin's total end supply is known, it's easy to transfer to anyone in the world in a few minutes.

Crypto is the future of money.
It isn't reliable at all, it was independently launched by some Japanese guy who masterminded a giant scam, god knows what he made.

I am pro crypto , but all these shitter coins are only worth what others are willing to pay for them, basically they have no value ( At all )

None of those will rebound and you should sell whatever you have for whatever you can get.

Should a similar coin launch from a real government or bank it will take off I will agree.

As for sending money to anyone in the world, we already have paypal , payoneer, bank wires and credit cards.

Sorry you have no usd, and sorry you lost

Those forms of money payment have nothing to do with Crypto. The point of Crypto is to avoid currency manipulation by government. They can print more money which will devalue what you have. The US does this but not to the extent you see it in some countries where the value of their currency goes down 10% a year. Whether or not you think Crypto does a good job at this or not is one discussion, but paypal just sends something like USD from one person to another. You are completely missing the point.

Bitcoins can be printed too -- Old Joe inventor can just release 5,000,000 million more coins overnight.

Why do bitcoins have to be mined in the first place? Such a wierd concept for a modern currency.

-hey lets make this new internet currency that has no tangible assest value backing it up.
-hey why dont we make it so people need to mine for it too as if it's some sort of real life Eve Online game.

*watch as idiots with FOMO scramble over their finances to buy them as wealthy men with tangible RL assets use Bitcoin as one of the biggest pump and dump scams ever seen in History*

the mining concept had to do a lot with the people who started bitcoin owning mining technology companies that magically disappeared soon as bitcoin bombed. Again, more of the scam which few were involved in.

Yea because you cant just "Mine" More garbage coins right?

the Japanese guy who invented bitcoin can generate as many as he wants and no one will know I guarantee it.

Wonder how many he had / sold, don't forget he was a professional banker ( and you are dirt poor )

I get you think it is a scam and that is a legitimate argument. I was just pointing out that Paypal isn't a substitute and has no reason being in the discussion.
