Yeah that true there is no barrier to age and anything. The crypto currency is really borderless currency which can reach anywhere in the world with just a click. No ifsc codes, no swap codes, no documentation and proof of blood relation is needed while sending the money from one country to another. I can just send whatever amount of money I want and to anyone they want it.


It has made everything easier as compared to traditional fiat currency. You can not use cash from one country to another and not even credit cards because they will get you heavy charges for using them internationally. If we start comparing or debating in both currencies then off crypto currency will win and will have biggest advantages as compared to fiat one.

Honestly I believe bitcoin is better since one you don't use your credit card so you don't loose you needed cash but instead your cash that you could easily earn back from mining. Plus, it's open to all ages unlike credit cards.
If you're talking about anonymity then bitcoin has more advantage, however if we talk about being useful then i think regular currency already explain it in our daily activities, supposed you cant go buy grocery or going to local doctors and hope to pay them with bitcoin yet.


We cannot just easily say that one has an advantage over the other because we have different aspects to choose from and only then we can decide if one is better than the other. If its usability of it then fiat is better than crypto because you can pay every one with fiat whereas you can only pay certain people/stores with bitcoin and there's not so many of them currently. In terms of anonymity, bitcoin is better than fiat because an address is just enough to transfer the funds without knowing the actual name and when you transfer funds to someone using fiat especially if its through banks then you need the information of the person.
Its true that bitcoin has more advantage in anonymity, however it also increased the anonymity transaction which cant be defined and check regulary by banks, and i think that would be a big problem for government if they want to check any offshore transaction, not to mention money laundering or even money that funded and go to terrorists bank account. So i think that anonymity also become a double edge sword as why bitcoin can't be accepted by many countries, yet.

There is no point in comparing crypto-currency with fiat cash. Both are having their own advantages and disadvantages. The biggest issue with crypto-currency is their volatility. Also, there are multiple prices, as there is not one single exchange. The lack of acceptability is another issue with crypto-coins. Even now, less than 1% of the shops accept them.

In comparison bitcoin is better to be using as a mode of payment and store of value than fiat money or credit card. Bitcoin has a decentralized nature, transaction is fast, the fees is also very low and is good for the storing of value. The financial crisis we are having now is as a result of credit card and fiat money.
You have rightly said. There are very much aspects in which crypto currency is better than regular currency. I think both are better but in their own capacities. We cannot give anyone of them priority over other. This all depends on where we are making use of which money. Both have their own pros and cons.

Crypto currency has both merits and demerits too. In our society crypto currency is not accepted by all. There are many people who are not familiar with crypto world. They know only real and fiat currency. On the other hand crypto transaction is very fast and fees is low. We can transaction with crypto world over the world.

I think if we think about bitcoin in investment point of view then Bitcoin's are great but if we use it in daily uses then bitcoins transaction fees are pretty high for small transactions and time taken for confirmations can be annoying as it can take hours or minutes at least.Also that many countries hasn't been legalised bitcoins.And fiat being replace by Bitcoin i don't think so is possible at least not in a few centuries.
That’s a fact, bitcoins are not easily going to replace fiat and there are numerous reasons behind this. Paper money is easy to handle and many people who hate technology, don’t like complicated digital methods for making transactions etc, they are not easily going to approve bitcoins for replacing conventional currencies. Indeed as an investment, bitcoins are better than even gold.

I think it is still better if we all holding both currencies which are the cryptocurrencies and real currencies because in our time, there are still states and countries who are not yet operating and accepting bitcoin because bitcoin may not yet been established or been legalize into their country. Also those currencies have different usage with regards to different situation because both have different specialization when it comes to usage. So it is still better if we hold both currencies.
Maybe in the future you may have a choice to choose one or the other but at this time, we need to hold both it is almost impossible to live our lives without fiat, in my country I have yet to see a single business accepting bitcoin, so in less than a few days I will be hungry since I will not be able to buy anything with my bitcoin.

To answer the question, we should think it in different ways. For investment side, bitcoin is much better than regular currencies. It provides a nice profit for holders. For the usage, bitcoin is really poor and not valid everywhere like cash.

Government control isn't good for cryptocurrencies. However, you sometimes need a regulatory body to level out the price.

We have to face some difficulties when we try to use crypto currencies instead of regular currency widely.We could find still more people being illiterate in most countries who are still unaware of digital transactions and they don't have a credit or debit card.The only thing they know is fiat currency.More over,internet has to be widely available to use crypto currencies.But the best feature about bitcoin is is decentralized nature due to which still governments struggle to gain control over it.People holding crypto currencies are their own banks and they are not in need of banks for transactions.

Yes, bitcoin has no boundary and will excel more than the other currencies, also cryptocurrencies have no exact value because of the active volatility. We all benefits on that.
I don’t really think so,  because anything  that has an advantage also has disadvantage. Yes,  bitcoin offers features that are way much better than what regular currencies can offer, but that doesn’t  place it on top,  because you will always need regular currencies in most cases than bitcoin
They have different uses and importance, regular currency is what we still need to sustain our living, yet cryptocurrencies is much better for savings that can secure our future.

Yes they are better than regular currencies because they have a higher rate of interest than the possible interest of regular currencies in the bank and cryptocurrencies are not with inflation because they have deflation instead which is awesome for a currency and for people who want to escape from inflation per year.

I think crypto is way better than cash: bank system for several reasons. You are your own bank you dont pay fees monthly or yearly and it is your responsibility keeping your money.you are protected from inflation and have better interest rates than cash. There are weaknesses as hackers and high violity which I believe will be fixed in future
both is awesome because you can not easily use cryptocurrency in the real world right now. Moreover, the government will not let citizens to use bitcoin widely because it will make their national currencies doom. And without fiat, they can not control the country. Therefore, I think that we need both type of currency

Each has got its own goodness. Right now being an cryptocurrency user gives pride, because now the users all around the world is very low and secondly the virtual presence gives anywhere access. With regular currency the usability is easier and the acceptance is high, so each based on their own convenience prefer it.

Yes each of these has its own goodness. Depending on the usage. Because you can't trade directly bitcoin through physicaly and you can't trade directly regular currency through online in long distance transactions.
Both currencies have their own importance in the economical world. It is pretty absurd to compare them with each other. They both have their own pros and cons, their own limitations. There is nothing wrong if both keep serving us the way they are doing now. At least I am enjoying using both.
Yes both of these are useful for everyone because of these currency we can buy and get all the things that we want but they also have limitation in order to avoid overspending from different people that use it and make the country become organize and help the citizen to provide their daliy needs.
