Bitcoin is living on borrowed time yet again. Fees are increasing at roughly $1 per day and will continue to do so until it reaches $35 just like last time. Fees are at $4 now. so you have about 30 days left to dump.

4 dollars per transaction for the most secure and liquid digital asset is fine. Retard nano shills think the point of crypto is for buying coffee. There is no reason to spend your rare digital assets that appreciate instead of your fiat or stable coins instead. Prepare to have your ass blown wide open by libra while bitcoin will remain unaffected

>> No.14389749

fees are incrementally increasing. tomorrow they will be $5 next day $6 so on and so fourth until it implodes. enjoy.

>> No.14389765

$4 is okay but $50+ which we'll see in the coming months or years isn't. You just switch one jewish intermediary for another (miners). Of course save haven bla bla digital gold bla but fees are gonna become excessive no matter how you spin it

>> No.14389939

>>14389765
even at $4 that kills small transactions. the higher the fee the higher the bar gets raised. eventually it would only be practical for moving thousands of dollars. at that point it's little more than a remittance system for banks and whales. not digital cash as described in the whitepaper.

with how it's developing, you're not supposed to transact with any bitcoin unless you plan to invest in it and cash out sparcely (i.e. for retirement). Whitepaper is totally irrelevant at this point since it's definitely not digital cash - throughput, fees, tx speed etc... is still pretty much how it always was, while the demand followed an exponential curve

The white paper is wrong by calling bitcoin electronic cash. The first few years of Bitcoin has just been people realizing that spending these coins is not their best use, 10000 btc for pizza, etc. When you spend them you lose opportunity cost of price appreciation in the future, its why hodl is more than just a meme. Greshams Law, there is no rational reason to spend your rare bitcoin that goes up when you have the option to spend your garbage fiat first. This is not digital cash

Money is the original social network. Crypto is not actually about the tech. Its the biggest mistake to think that. This is all social network effect and brand recognition, litecoin and modern coins like nano will always be behind bitcoin and it has nothing to do with the tech. Just get onboard because at the end of the day bitcoin will be the global reserve currency of the entire world and other cryptos will be pegged to it for spending purposes

You are too brainlet to realize that even your nano shitcoin will fall prey to the same symptoms even if it can do 1 billion transactions a second. Why the fuck would you spend one of your rare fixed supply nanos when you could spend a stablecoin with direct integration in your phone and to all your friends as businesses easily?

2019: Various cryptocurrencies are achieving mass adoption in numerous industries for their nuanced application of blockchain technology as a means to share and communicate data via transactions.

We've got different projects that are literally inventing new industries that will be worth billions and billions of dollars, like DeFi. All the largest companies and strongest governments are incorporating blockchain technology, often through the use of public networks, to automate operations, catalog data, build more intuitive communications system, so on and so forth.

Imagine thinking none of this matters, and instead you're maxing out on the "better Bitcoin" shitcoins. Just like in 2015, the best altcoins are the one with the cheapest/fastest transactions, right anon?

BSV/NANO/DASH/DGB/insert gen 1 shitcoin here maximalists are never going to make it. We'll all be chilling on mars and they'll be waiting for their Earth shattering pump.

Bitcoin Cash has some ideological value (though I don't agree with BCH at all). Litecoin has value as BTC testbed. Monero and Grin have value as legitimate privacy currencies. But if you're banking on a coin whose major purpose is to be a better Bitcoin, without being geared for or even capable of contracts and data transaction, you'll be off as bad as any normie nocoiner.
