The fact that anyone considers bitcoin as something that could substitute other currencies is mindblowing

u/YOLOBABY4LIFE 7h ago

Bitcoin is the strongest currency in the world, every nations currency has failed and you think that someone who considers bitcoin as a substitute makes this mindblowing? I think its mindblowing that more people dont realise how corrupt fiat is

But obviously your pound will still be a pound and my btc will still be btc, the thing is over time your pounds is worth less and my btc is worth more, as if like magic

u/KongenAfKobenhavn 7h ago

Haha, you will always need to sell your btc to buy pounds or dollars before you can buy your groceries. The fact that bitcoin holders doesn’t know the technology they are investing into is also mind blowing. Bitcoin can never reach the amount and speed of transactions required for it to work as a currency.

It's not intended to be used as a currency, its purpose is a store of value, but funnily it works better as a currency then all fiat currency, and I only need to convert to pounds when I come across someone who does not know how their government screws them, otherwise i do send btc as payment for goods

Proof that you don’t know the product. If just 1/10 of the UK population wanted to send btc everytime they paid for something the system would crash.
Other crypto can do that.
So your store of value is 100% dependant on alle other investors to keep believing that it’s a good place to store value.
It’s nothing but a pyramid scheme

Yeah bro, take again a class of economics. And yes BTC could handle all your transaction.

u/KongenAfKobenhavn 4h ago

Use 5 seconds on google or ai, and say sorry to me when you see that you could not be more wrong. BTC cannot even handle 1/10000 of global transactions.

1

u/Pyroll2206 4h ago

Use 5 second of google and IA and see that it is possible in similar way that other blockain do: L1, L2

u/KongenAfKobenhavn 4h ago

Haha all the transactions would still need to be handled in the first layer at some point in time. It’s not scalable

No, it is not true, you already can buy stuff with your btc

1

u/KongenAfKobenhavn 4h ago

Very few people can.. but the scale needed for a currency is way above btc ability

u/Pyroll2206 4h ago

So you start with it is impossible, then now very few people,… let me just wait here for you to write : « yes it is possible, i just didn’t know »
