I am amazed with number of people being fooled with BTC:

1. Transactions takes hours
2. Fees are high
3. Development team sucks, uncapable solve scalability issues for years
4. Its not anonymous, every solution to make it, failed so far
5. Its centralized: who is biggest hash power owner? Who is biggest miner hardware provider? Who owns most of bitcoins? What is % of Bitcoins in coldstorage and what in exchanges ( Ye Mt Gox )
6. There is 0 economics for BTC, it just tight to USD with liquidity providers, cut that and try to value pizza box with just BTC
7. Its not store of value, its not digital gold, and it will never be 100k USD. Because it has no value. It has value only for energy probiders, hardware manufactures and random phils.
8. Its not insured, If some crap happened to your BTC, its gone.
9. Bitcoin has a limited supply, but it does not help much. Bitcoin has a code that can be amended and its enough of small group of people to work together to support that. Question really is: do someone need that hassle? No really. Bitcoin has satoshis, that currently meaningless and just nice numbers after dot, but this a very well painless way to inflate any crypto currency and its up to liquidity providers. Again it falls to point #5 and #6. Added on 24/01/2018

Such crap will never be used in payments, noone wants to support Terrabytes or Petabytes of data.

Its funny to observe how uneducated shills trying to make casual office landline phone to look smart phone.

BTC is scam of the century, stay away.

UPDATE 12/02/2018:

As this forum full of bots, I will emphasize one question from the user:

Ok, for all of you that insist that Bitcoin is not useless, tell me!

What do you use Bitcoin for?

Please don't tell me what it could be used for or how other people might use it. I want to know how you use it. Also, please don't tell me about trading or hodling. Those are not uses.


Hope to get constructive answers.

UPDATE 11/02/2018:

One by one, it becomes recognizable that Bitcoin at this stage is very useless. DarkNet, is the one who started one, and the one who will make a dump: https://cointelegraph.com/news/is-darknet-done-with-bitcoin

This is a very worried signal

UPDATE 30/01/2018:

Bitcointalk, and many other crypto related forums are heavily manipulated by bots, the amount of useless posts and conversation is just crazy. Even look at this thread, so much messages about "it will make me reach", "it growing", "I am going to be wealthy" so much manipulation, only in ponzi game this possible. It proves just on how bitcoin is useless, because 90% of people just copy paste message from bots, even not knowing basic fundamentals.

UPDATE 29/01/2018:
Few points were made here that are unfair:

1. Bitcoin is a first one, its revolutionary and so on and so forth, wrong, Bitcoin is a client that is build on top of practices that were developed and test long time before Bitcoin e.g. Proof of Work, Hashcash, eCash, bit gold, Merkle Tree, Peer-to-Peer,Byzantine fault tolerance etc.

2. Bitcoin is still in development and it needs a time and so on and so forth, really? its a 10 years old technology. Its usage is very easy predictable, no rocket science here. Scailibility problems were addressed long time ago. But like in every corrupted government, Bitcoin has biased devs, greedy miners and exchanges driven by capitalists. Why to care about tech? When everyone is just become wealthy on nothing. This is why its scam and this is how it become useless, because everyone only cares about price, not utility on day-to-day basis. Typical ponzi game.

3. Bitcoin is store of value, fake as is. Everything that has Blockchain underneath is store of value, Bitcoin is neither exception nor unique here. And again it has no value, because there is no utility. Remove exchanges from equation, and tell me how much BTC will be worth 1 pizza?

UPDATE 24/01/2018:

Everyone is amazed of why I called it useless, well, recently Stripe dropped support for Bitcoin payments. This is the prove of Bitcoin being useless. Stripe was not the only one in recent months to do so. It should ring a bell.


UPDATE 23/01/2018:

useless, guys the fact that some of you become reach and wealthy does not make Bitcoin useful. You wealth does not come from values that are used in propaganda.

1. Why I am still here? I believe there are technologies that are better maintained and lead than BTC, I prefer put money in something that bring value, has use-case and been used.
2. LN is panacea! Well not, so far its more dream than reality, no doubt it will be delivered in one or other way, but it will not solve all problems and so far it has more questions than answers.
There is a lot of specific evidence that you give is absolutely correct. But I think if bitcoin is useless, then people are investing in useless things. No, bitcoin is totally useful for everyone. Thanks to Bitcoin that transactions are faster

It has many flaws now yes!!! But I doubt something useless would be able to pull a lot of powerful moguls, in the financial sector, government sector, tech sector (Bill Gates) to chip in major opinion about it. Bitcoin and cryptocurrency is even being debated at a G20 summit, that says a lot. So it's not useless. And for point #9 having a limited supply can be a huge advantage, especially when demand becomes high. Simple supply & demand economics states "the higher the demand the higher the price." So it's not useless at all.

We all have different views in everything specially in bitcoin and i respect your opinion. But for me bitcoin is not useless in fact it helps a lot of peoole make lives better. Heard about an inspiring story of my classmate with regards to his bitcoin experience that makes me encourage to do bitcoin too. How his life changes and even quitted his job just to focus bitcoin and now he is getting what he want in his life.
I can’t agree with you more, your opinion is so great. All of us have the equal right to give our views to any aspect. With the one, who used to or even keeps always  being fail in this bitcoin market is usually have a bad view for this market. It’s so normal. For me, bitcoin is a big benefit, which can help not only me but also many people all over the world have chance to get an extra income and especially the unemployed can have a temporary job.

Well, there are many traders now that saying that bitcoin is already dead, that bitcoin is turns to worthless and that bitcoin is useless because of the great dump of bitcoin now. But we all know that dump is temporary soon it will rise again and will soared High, expect that.

Despite the creation date of this thread all above mentioned reminds much about those years when someone suggested to sell BTC out  because of the price falling from $500 to $400, so where is this dude now?

 So how do you think paper money can compare to Bitcoin? As far as I know, without using paper money, you can use other things to exchange without losing anything else. But if you lose Bitcoin then blockchain technology will die. Blockchain can help a lot of useful things in our future lives.

Bitcoin is not useless and as far as i know many people nowadays thinking the same. When we will stop destroying everything we will become better. I am taking about crypto.
How dare someone would say that bitcoin is useless of course not, there are more shitcoins out there that is more useless rather than bitcoin, I believe in the future that bitcoin will be a great name, it will make or create a big name in the whole world.

Bitcoin at this point is holding its value because its a legacy coin. I think its always going to have value based on the fact that it was the first ever cryptocurrency. You should look at it like gold. Gold is pretty useless too but the reason why its so valuable still is because it has so much history. Bitcoin is basically digital gold at this point
This is so absurd to give a statement declaring that bitcoin is nothing practical. People have built new houses, start new businesses, driving new cars just because of investing large amounts into bitcoin. These are all the practical uses of bitcoin.

Those transactions that needed weeks and third parties are now done within few hours without any interference from third party. So please think before spreading such things. 
I would understand and respect people who have negative comments about bitcoin. Perhaps, they have come up these perspectives due to their bad experiences in bitcoin. But I think when you know about how bitcoin works and its functionalities then you will be able to know its advantages and benefits. Don't lose hope it's not the end yet, if you find bitcoin useless, give another try.

I don't think thatbthe bitcoin is useless just simple because there's a lot of people that are using bitcoin to make their life better yes it is time consuming there are fees but lot of people have been help by bitcoin. Bitcoin is profitable so you can't just say that bitcoin is useless if dont take risk nothing will happen if you don't make a move bitcoin will be useless to you but for those who have been help by bitcoin, bitcoin is helpful not a useless thing.
many people has been helped from bitcoin, and i think bitcoin is useful for bitcoiners. but now bitcoin is better in terms of investment than transaction, because there are still many countries that have not legalized btc so cant move freely

useless, guys the fact that some of you become reach and wealthy does not make Bitcoin useful. You wealth does not come from values that are used in propaganda.

1. Why I am still here? I believe there are technologies that are better maintained and lead than BTC, I prefer put money in something that bring value, has use-case and been used.
2. LN is panacea! Well not, so far its more dream than reality, no doubt it will be delivered in one or other way, but it will not solve all problems and so far it has more questions than answers.

If you feel bitcoin is useless, then you will leave the bitcoin and put on another option. I think otherwise, bitcoin is very useful to me, because it has been a benefit for me, and I believe bitcoin to be the main choice in crypto.

I don't think thatbthe bitcoin is useless just simple because there's a lot of people that are using bitcoin to make their life better yes it is time consuming there are fees but lot of people have been help by bitcoin. Bitcoin is profitable so you can't just say that bitcoin is useless if dont take risk nothing will happen if you don't make a move bitcoin will be useless to you but for those who have been help by bitcoin, bitcoin is helpful not a useless thing.

LOL. This problems you have pointed is just being ignored by its users. You know why? Because it has been very profitable, of course RISK will always be there, but it is nothing compared to the price you can get.
My friend bitcoin is not useless because many people really deserve to be a wealthy elite because of bitcoin and the crypto currency that most effective in online income.

People don't "deserve" anything because of anything. They can think and earn, or they can sit on a sidewalk and moan.

I am amazed with number of people being fooled with BTC:

1. Transactions takes hours
2. Fees are high
3. Development team sucks, uncapable solve scalability issues for years
4. Its not anonymous, every solution to make it, failed so far
5. Its centralized: who is biggest hash power owner? Who is biggest miner hardware provider? Who owns most of bitcoins? What is % of Bitcoins in coldstorage and what in exchanges ( Ye Mt Gox )
6. There is 0 economics for BTC, it just tight to USD with liquidity providers, cut that and try to value pizza box with just BTC
7. Its not store of value, its not digital gold, and it will never be 100k USD. Because it has no value. It has value only for energy probiders, hardware manufactures and random phils.
8. Its not insured, If some crap happened to your BTC, its gone.
9. Bitcoin has a limited supply, but it does not help much. Bitcoin has a code that can be amended and its enough of small group of people to work together to support that. Question really is: do someone need that hassle? No really. Bitcoin has satoshis, that currently meaningless and just nice numbers after dot, but this a very well painless way to inflate any crypto currency and its up to liquidity providers. Again it falls to point #5 and #6. Added on 24/01/2018

Such crap will never be used in payments, noone wants to support Terrabytes or Petabytes of data.

Its funny to observe how uneducated shills trying to make casual office landline phone to look smart phone.

BTC is scam of the century, stay away.

UPDATE 12/02/2018:

As this forum full of bots, I will emphasize one question from the user:

Ok, for all of you that insist that Bitcoin is not useless, tell me!

What do you use Bitcoin for?

Please don't tell me what it could be used for or how other people might use it. I want to know how you use it. Also, please don't tell me about trading or hodling. Those are not uses.


Hope to get constructive answers.

UPDATE 11/02/2018:

One by one, it becomes recognizable that Bitcoin at this stage is very useless. DarkNet, is the one who started one, and the one who will make a dump: https://cointelegraph.com/news/is-darknet-done-with-bitcoin

This is a very worried signal

UPDATE 30/01/2018:

Bitcointalk, and many other crypto related forums are heavily manipulated by bots, the amount of useless posts and conversation is just crazy. Even look at this thread, so much messages about "it will make me reach", "it growing", "I am going to be wealthy" so much manipulation, only in ponzi game this possible. It proves just on how bitcoin is useless, because 90% of people just copy paste message from bots, even not knowing basic fundamentals.

UPDATE 29/01/2018:
Few points were made here that are unfair:

1. Bitcoin is a first one, its revolutionary and so on and so forth, wrong, Bitcoin is a client that is build on top of practices that were developed and test long time before Bitcoin e.g. Proof of Work, Hashcash, eCash, bit gold, Merkle Tree, Peer-to-Peer,Byzantine fault tolerance etc.

2. Bitcoin is still in development and it needs a time and so on and so forth, really? its a 10 years old technology. Its usage is very easy predictable, no rocket science here. Scailibility problems were addressed long time ago. But like in every corrupted government, Bitcoin has biased devs, greedy miners and exchanges driven by capitalists. Why to care about tech? When everyone is just become wealthy on nothing. This is why its scam and this is how it become useless, because everyone only cares about price, not utility on day-to-day basis. Typical ponzi game.

3. Bitcoin is store of value, fake as is. Everything that has Blockchain underneath is store of value, Bitcoin is neither exception nor unique here. And again it has no value, because there is no utility. Remove exchanges from equation, and tell me how much BTC will be worth 1 pizza?

UPDATE 24/01/2018:

Everyone is amazed of why I called it useless, well, recently Stripe dropped support for Bitcoin payments. This is the prove of Bitcoin being useless. Stripe was not the only one in recent months to do so. It should ring a bell.

Bitcoin is not useless. You are very wrong on what you've said. Bitcoin helps a lot of people. Yes, i know that bitcoin price now is very low but it is part of it not all the time increasing. Even it is falling bitcoin still helpful because it can still provide the things that we need.
