Whatever the religion might be, finally what it insist is love and peace. Here cryptocurrency too is doing the same, and upon the same I we can say it is a religion because it has been developing peace and providing humanity among the common people who were part of the network.

I have different impression about crypto world

It looks that most people here are because of money or material wealth, not to share or give love or peace.
I don't see such values in the crypto world, specially if you read crypro forums like Bitcointalk.
I see a lot fights here, personal attacks even hate sometimes but maybe if BTC price start to grow again, we will see more happy and peaceful people here.

If people are so greedy, they won't be happy anyway because they just want to make and make a lot of money. That's why scammers are born to take advantage of the naive and ignorant people. If someone has the knowledge to make money in a good way, he might have to share it to his closest friends and relatives but not with anybody who he didn't trust at all. And this is how most people are fighting just for the sake of cryptocurrency. Money creates chaos and can create chaos.

Read the Bitcoin "investors" in this forum and you always see them say the same: "I believe..."

- I believe Bitcoin will go up
- I believe HODL is good
- I believe we will see adoption
- I believe it will go to the moon

and so and...and so on.... and so on

You have no understanding - only belief

Therefore Bitcoin for many people in here is a religion - it is about belief and not about facts and understanding

And religion is an extremely poor investment strategy

This is a poor extrapolation, the opinion of a few does not make a technology a religion. Just like your hate does not represent everyone else's opinion.

Bitcoin is an experiment in game theory and economics, based in math and logic. Do your own research

sadly, your statement is true about a huge number of people, the kinda worship Bitcoin as a god or religion or a cult.

I think you misunderstood something, people like to use Bitcoin because it's easy to used and it's decentralized, people like to invest in Bitcoin because it can give them big profit, look at the chart you will see how many times the Bitcoin had already multiply since it was created,there is no religion connected, Bitcoin gives hope for better life

Because even if you have understanding you can't predict price because of too many factors.
So you know technology is revolutionary in bitcoin, its best invention in many many many years but still it can fail in terms of people/bug/politics.
Thats why people believing in price increase or not.

There is no causal connection between the fact that members of this forum use the phrases "I think," "I think," and religion. This is simply expressed its subjective point of view. We do not discuss technical and other problems that require actual confirmation of what was said. We at this forum express our opinions and discuss the opinions of others. It is not logical to compare it with religion and belief in the super-natural.

for the fact that people use the statement I believe in terms of bitcoin does not mean its a religion. They only believe its a technology which has so much to offer and they fully believe in everything that has to do with it. Remember there are lots of people who dont even want to hear about it.

Because the growth of the price of bitcoin itself is very dependent on the trust of its users, if the price of bitcoin continues to rise, rises and rises, then there is a believe that bitcoin will be very profitable, and they usually make purchases. What's meant by believing here is not Religion, because we are all here not only doing worship or prayer, except making purchases, sales, hodl, analysis of the rise and fall of the price of bitcoin. So, It's natural if they have opinions in such a way because we are big fans of bitcoin.
Then, what do you believe in bitcoin?
Do you believe in the popularity of bitcoin?

Tackling Climate Change Using Blockchain

well so many people fail to really understand bitcoin and the blockchain technology and its working principles. They are just after making profit, thus they believe anything related to it as long as it gives them that hope of making profit soonest. Believing bitcoin is not bad for it as it goes to show they trust it.

Bitcoin isn't a religion surely, when we see some people using the sentence "I believe" about something, this doesn't mean that this thing is a religion, it simply means that these people have some faith or prediction positively in this thing. Bitcoin is a currency and an asset, it is in fact money, and people treat it this way; like treating fiat currencies, for example.

I totally got your point in this subject. Knowing that so many people in our community always saying that they are believing but believing is nothing when there is no action. What actions can you do to support anything in the community?
- responding in every post with admirable answer
- following the forum rules
- dont just believe in HOLDing, just do it.

You guys are probably misunderstanding the word "believe" over here. By believing in bitcoin or crypto currency, they mean that they "trusts" the potential of the crypto currencies. They trust that the currency is the future based on facts and proof.
Do you really hold bitcoin just randomly? Or do you hold it because you trust (read believe) that the price will eventually rise?

Interesting suggestion but I don't think so.
We can have faith in bitcoin in the same way as we can have faith in our famous sport club, our partner, country etc.
But, religion is connected with spiritual aspect of our lives only.
Bitcoin is our dream for a better life, let's say but not religion.

In the first place, I don't see the connection of how does bitcoin become a religion?
It doesn't mean we believed in bitcoin its mean it has a connection to religion, I guess you are wrong with this
concepts. If we have a strong belief about in bitcoin, it means its part of our motivation to achieve our goal and target in this
industry.
