Unironically neck yourself
Btc was and still is revolutionary tech, but the world is starting to move on
What does btc do?
Holders used to claim it was digital cash. How'd that work out when fees skyrocketed?
Now they claim its digital gold
Why? Because it's scarce? So is almost every other token or coin
There's nothing special about btc
It's like a web browser that only allows you to view text files
Revolutionary, sure, but if that's all it ever does, good luck investing in it once pictures, movies, games and other content becomes available on other platforms. Which is exactly what's happening here
Btc is useless now
Invest in quality alts, even if a few go to shit you'll more than pay for the losers with the moonshots
Stuff like omg, link, 0x, bat, req, rlc, fun, or anything with a solid team or innovative use case will way outperform btc if you're patient

Bitcoin cash will become the market leader soon.

>>9401473
Nope lol
Btc is controlled by a few large miners
Also, even if we play devil's advocate and assume you're right, other cryptos can get close enough and add many more robust features to surpass btc and relegate it to the scrap heap
There's definitely a loss of marginal utility once you reach a certain point of being decentralized

Look at link
The token will be used to incentive node operators and will unlock decentralized oracles, if successful
Salt will allow crypto lending
Fun will revolutionize gambling
Tokens like wax, gifto, and others open up the scarce digital goods market
And many more

Until we get alt fiat gateways, trading for BTC is the way to go. And truthfully, it is still world known. As much as I dislike BTC as well compared to some alts, it is holding the whole market up.

>> No.9402005

>>9401966
Well coinbase gateway is coming, they've said so many times
Other options are coming too such as ethos
And it's better to trade using eth most of the time. Faster and cheaper
Also your argument is pointless
It's like saying MySpace is used now, so Facebook won't explode in 3 years. Just totally short sighted

How do y cash out then ?
Not everyone in this crypto living in a country where coinDicks is available.
Beside the only y can buy those favorite shitcoins of your is to btc or eth and trade for it. Which mean the only way to cash out and make money is to acquire more btc or eth unless there is an exchange that allow us to buy our favorite shitcoins with fiat.

>> No.9402063

>>9402021
Sell whatever coins to anything you can cashout in your country
In burger land you don't need btc, you can go from many cryptos to your bank account if needed
I'm sure there's other options in your area as well

There isnt m8. Most country except for burger land isnt allow to use crypto as a payment method. And most of the vendor in my country I living in only have btc or eth cash out option. I could do a face to face trade with my shitcoins but its too risky to do it.

>> No.9402165

Use eth then
Also this is just temporary, it's trivial to add a cashout button for another coin and then btc loses its appeal

Now? Probably trade for eth and then either cash out or buy another coin
Don't assume btc will be the only major funding currency forever

who gives a shit about forever? trading back to BTC today does not equate to a lifetime community membership anymore than any other coin. I have no problem with etherminerium, but not much less than a year ago that was a 7x mistake that bore countless pink wojaks.

I didn't say I want BTC to be #1. In fact, it is an old dinosaur that I hope is overtaken. But you can't deny it's still the king and well known. At a certain point everyone used Myspace, and that's the point we're at now. Ethereum is coming up but fucking EVERYONE knows Bitcoin.
