RE: There is Little Chance Bitcoins can Sustain any Real Recovery Until This Fundamental Metric Begins to Turn Upwards Again

in #bitcoins7 years ago

You may be right. And yes cryptocurrencies are not stock markets. But eventually if bitcoins was growing in adoption for 9 years and then suddenly stops growing and the number of people using it continues to dwindle I kind of believe its value will not continue to grow inversely with its usage. Even if it was being mined from the moon.

And I do not know if the Lightning network will work either. We shall see. Thanks for reading and your perspective. Upvoted the comment.

Sort:  

You do raise some concerning points, but I personally do believe in bitcoin. The lightning network can only help that is, if it does what it says it will do, as it will be a major improvement to the fundamental function to the bitcoin network layed on top of it. A true improvement can only raise confidence, thus, giving it some legitamacy, as it will get back to being closer to the vision of what bitcoin was supposed to be, a decentralized, damn near free method of payment. This should in theory increase user base, if you think about it

What attracted most in the first place I believe was a search for a decentralized (not controlled by any one or entity), non-inflated, nearly free method of payment. Plus it would have stopped the scalability issue, which prevents the user base from growing actually without. So I agree that should in theory increase user base.
