RE: WHY YOU SHOULD STOP USING BITCOIN

in #bitcoin8 years ago (edited)

Was your OP sarcastic? No, looks it wasn't, judging from your other posts. No, you don't understand Bitcoin enough yet to make a judgement. First lesson: Other/new/"better" features come with tradeoffs. Second: Study the history of TCP/IP. Then draw your conclusions.

Sort:  

I think you are in denial of the reality. Bitcoin is a performance disaster and only keeps getting money because it was the first, but not because it can perform any useful purpose now other than as a store of value for people that are afraid to store their value elsewhere. Check out my post and comments here

Thank you a lot for the support! The guy is really deluded. Your words are true in every aspect

I call my arguments: it is slow, it doesn't have new features, such as smart contracts, it is very expensive so it isn't convenient for the price tags (yes, the devil is in details). Call your arguments! TCP IP is not an argument, try the other

I gotta admit, your sarcasm was a bit hard to read.
But I do quite agree. Bitcoin feels old and outdated. It feels obsolete.

Sure, it still works, but so does Windows 95.

Even Ethereum and Steem are getting older and looking more primitive.
I think some of us are still looking for "The Big One".

Or maybe it's better to decentralize. Why must Bitcoin die for other coins to have value? As it is, they do have value. It's easy to convert just about any cryptocurrency to any other cryptocurrency, so there's really no reason to think that we need a centralized "One Coin To Rule Them All" coin.

We just need more coins, some that do everything, and some that focus on just one or two things, but more coins is better. Computers don't mind the chaos. They just process data. The only necessary component is being able to buy and spend easily and freely.
