I used to be someone that thought Bitcoin was dead and never cared to get the facts myself.
I see the truth now. I did my own research and realized what people were saying about the potential of Bitcoin. I vividly remember the gears clicking together in my head while reading an article on Blockchain. What was it like for you guys? What were you doing that made you realize it? Do you still stick to that belief? I’m curious to hear other people’s experiences.

nah it's a fad. Fun to jump on board and make money here and there but that's it. No project will ever be really used or mainstream. Credit cards exist.

As the market evolves we’re beginning to see the use of bitcoin as a replacement for cash might have been over blown. That said, it’s stood the test of time for transferring large amounts of value successfully for many years and it’s not going away. More and more progress will continue to be made in the blockchain space, and there is money to be made. You just have to pick the projects that will stand the test of time, just as Bitcoin has.

I guess everything since 2009 has stood the test of time right?

Want to guess what happens to crypto when a real recession hits?

>> No.14883131

>>14883111
It moons because it's supply is constantly reducing while governments increase fiat supply during recessions.

BTC would do great in a recession, eth would be rekt tough

BTC is only useful for global trading and that's it. Globally there will always be people that gamble and BTC is good for that. There is no use for crypto currency. Nobody can give a tangible use case that benefits people in the real world. It's always some dumb tired argument that people use to justify shitcoins with no use.

It cant scale enough to be cash. It also needs miners to keep it secure. People who buy bitcoin do so to cash out when new bubbles pop until it becomes useless. Great ideas dont always stand the test of time. There are better alternatives to bitcoin.

Well said, Name one BTC developer that's right no one knows any. Core is made up of junior developers at best with 0.1 Rep and 0 memes to their name (its 2019!! memes got Trump elected, so no memes = no development). Just Sergey alone is more well know then all the BTC core devs combined excluding Satoshi since hes MIA. It wasn't always this way Vitalik was a Bitcoin Developer but BlockStream wouldn't let him contribute since their Goal is to slow down Development, they are owned by central banks after all.
