Topic: Bitcoin is a religion - page 2. (Read 1407 times)

Come on, people believe in bitcoin doesn't mean they make bitcoin a religion? they believe in the future of bitcoin,
the concept carried by blockchain, users don't worship bitcoin? so what is at issue?

Not to offend anybody but the way religion is put into this analogy is quite a bit exaggerated. Religion is more than anything, people die because of faith. Who else would want to die for bitcoin? Religion to many have been something so important and not materialistic on most case except for some may be like when religion is focused on worldly material. Bitcoin is different. It is something not to be regarded as religion, it is technology that people would want to use because of its utility. I think it is a misconception to connect bitcoin belief with religion. Not because you believe on it that you have faith. Religions needs faith not belief alone. Belief is just a matter of accepting the truth. And nobody could ever accept that bitcoin is going down or is a poor investment because they have seen how it made the lives of people comfortable and easy.

This is too strong comparison. Although at the begininig when Bitcoin first appeared some users had the strong belief and Bitcoin was much more then just the new technology and digital currency, it was morw about the way of life and new way of thinking. But today many see it only as a profit and way how to ger the money so I wouldn't compare it with religion.

Bitcoin remains a digital asset and investment is not a belief or a religion. stupid people who understand that bitcoin is included because this time bitcoin itself is already well known as an investment

It depends on what religion your in,because we have our own beliefs and teachings ,but for me better learn firs everytime that money is involved for safe keeping

Many discussions around encrypted currencies and related block chains have become increasingly toxic, and it is increasingly impossible for well-meaning people to have technical discussions without being attacked. With the discussion of real flaws, it has become a common practice for those flaws destined to fail in other environments to be immediately judged as heretical without any factual analysis, and the participation of well-meaning people becomes extremely expensive. At least some people are aware of extremely serious security vulnerabilities, and they choose to remain silent because of the highly toxic environment.

What used to be driven by curiosity, expectations of learning and improvement, creative feasibility, is now driven by blind greed, religious fanaticism, self-righteousness and self-expansion.

I don't have much hope for the future of projects inspired by this fanaticism, and its continued spread may damage real researchers in this field for many years. Among these technology projects, some have succeeded and some have failed - that's how technology evolves. The people who design these systems have shortcomings just like you and me, as well as these projects. Some projects are very suitable for some usage scenarios but not for others. Some projects are not suitable for any usage scenarios, and none of them is suitable for all usage scenarios. Discussions on these projects should focus on Technology in order to develop the field of research; the inclusion of religious fanaticism in these projects will certainly harm everyone.

Actually, from the religious side, it is not recommended to invest in something that is not clear (understandable) because it will make us lose because we cannot understand everything, so if we do not understand the opportunities and risks of investing it is better not to do so because it will bear bad things .

I think it just about profitable investment. Investor must be want to make profits from their investment and always optimistic in the future. Investor just want the best for his investment and i dont think bitcoin is religion because its not cult

other will agree on this when they dont know what good thing about bitcoin
if they dont know the potential and the adoption happening in bitcoin

Well all I can say about this is that, Bitcoin is same as with the concept of a religion but we cannot totally say Bitcoin is a religion, just the concept alone. Religions believes in a certain god they have in, but bitcoin are believing that it will change to a much more better crypto market status and will eventually be used globally world widely.

Bitcoin is not a religion if are in your mind it's of obvious bitcoin is the form of money lol, people say I believe or what so ever because they trust the pwoer and capability of bitcoin as a new currency.

That's exactly right, it's too much when we consider bitcoin as a religion. bitcoin is a financial system that has a level of digitalization that is so sophisticated, we use bitcoin to facilitate financial transactions every day. Bitcoin will continue to grow and will have a huge market share. Bitcoin is a revolutionary in the financial system in the world, let's use bitcoin together and we will feel the benefits when the price of bitcoin continues to increase.

In my opinion "bitcoin" contain many liberal ideals and for this reason it is becoming a symbol of the future, of "tothemoon" and of hope. 

Bitcoin can indeed provide a very useful advantage for changing financial conditions for the better, indeed from the benefits it can provide pleasure but if you consider it a religion it will be very excessive.

In reality, those elements that you consider proper to a religion are no more than properties common to all human beings, when they cling to the fact that things can be better in adverse times.

There is a natural tendency in humans to cling to hope and become a defender of their positions, even if reality shows that things go in an opposite direction, and this also applies to many bitcoiners.

Bitcoin is not religion, about many people keep trusting bitcoin will be on higher price is not the same with faith or your religion, just optimist and hope bitcoin could growing up to higher price because have at the higher position about last two years.

It isn't fair to limit bitcoin and relate with bitcoin or other cryptocurrencies. From my understanding some used to segregate and stay away.

There were users who have questioned is bitcoin halal or not. It is upto them, when something is used for good there is nothing to complicate it relating with unwanted controversial links.

Lol - Religion is a poor investment strategy   

Na, not at all... You need to believe in what your investing in - otherwise your just a shmuck.

And typically - people are obsessed with making money. I don't think it needs to be a religion type deal to want to "Believe" your investment will pay off

Bitcoin is clearly not a religion because it is related to money, namely digital currency designed to be used throughout the world, with a peer to peer system and decentralized so it is very efficient because it does not involve banks.
The thinking of bitcoin is that religion is very stupid, does not use logic and always assumes that what is believed is religion. With this it is clear that bitcoin is bitcoin which is digital money.
