I liked his phrase "The cult of bitcoin [makes] many claims — that it's instant, free, scalable, efficient, secure, globally accepted and useful — it is none of those things".
Did anyone else though he was describing what XRP is there? Grin

But not only XRP. BTC too... it might not scalable yet, sure, and the words "instant" and "free" are very heavy ones... it's much faster than SEPA and with about the same cost as a SEPA transfer though.
As for security, it's as secure as the user.

Bitcoin in this digital world is very useful not only through technology but in our daily living. It is used to earn a living and as a form of commodity. It can be used as a mode of payment without spending so much time in line just to have transactions.
Bitcoin is very useful from the start up to now in the digital world it gives me to support all my needs in every day life to.pay all my bills and buying stuff and etc.using bitcoin are easy to transact.

I do not agree with the assertion that bitcoin is useless.
Bitcoin is the  premise upon which other cryptocurrencies are being created.
bitcoin is tge "father" of all other digital assets and the most popular.
Bitcoin is on its way to being widely adopted as a medium of exchange in the nearest future.
So its not useless.

the whole idea of bitcoin and the blockchain technology and the solution it proffers to the entire public can not be thrown away to the gutters just because someone's opinion of bitcoin states that it is not in use.

No, bitcoin is not useless. Yeah its correct that only few people use bitcoin but that will change once mass adoption happens. Still crypto world is in infant stage and new developments are happening daily. So just give it some time and you will see that it can solve many purposes.

I am not agree with this that bitcoin is useless. Bitcoin is asset. Bitcoin will never end and its value will never zero. Bitcoin is world first cryptocurrency and it price is very good. At present quiet low bitcoin price. But it is not right picture of bitcoin.

Well its useful or useless depends upon whether you get profit from it or loss from it. In my case i got a hell of loss and almost lost my all revenues in exchanging and buying and when I had thought to hold, prices went down and down and now I have nothing in hand.

if I have never thought that bitcoin will continue to lower its price to zero, many are out there shouting that bitcoin will perish, but it's not that easy, and I have the belief that bitcoin will soar and raise the price again, even though I don't know when it will happen.

but that does not make bitcoin disappear in terms of usefulness, this is a complicated thing and at least there must be an equivalent substitute in the digital world if anyone wants to replace it. Price is not a proportional benchmark for considering bitcoin will be lost, but the depth of volume and usefulness that makes bitcoin will remain at any time.

Bitcoin hedead to zero?
The former ceo of paypal Bill harris said that,bitcoin's value will continue to dwindle until it gets "eventually a whole lot closer to zero."and saying that there's just no value in bitcoin and "Bitcoin makes no revenue, no profitability."
he also called the cryptocurrency is a
"colossal pump-and-dump scheme, the likes of which the world has never seen."
I think this is non-sense, what about you?

You are free to express what you think. But I think it's just a thought because of the panic that happened because of the collapse of the market. I am sure that bitcoin will survive and in the future it will be able to have a better price.

it was just his concern, maybe most paypal users switched to Bitcoin, so he was worried. bitcoin will indeed go down and always experience pumps and dumps, but it won't be worth zero (0), because many people like Bitcoin technology and are very easy to use. without regulations for transactions.

Well, nobody can predict how the market fluctuates so who are they to make assumptions based on nothing?  They do not have an idea on how the market flows and so are we. It is far from over and it continue to grow as long as there are people investing and believing in cryptocurrencies.

Well i also don't see any fact in all his claims and accusations but sure he has the free will to share his opinion about bitcoin. This is what i know that in as much as bitcoin reduces from time to time it still bounces back so what's his problem anyway. Is either he invests and gain as we are doing lol or just sit tight and invest somewhere else.

Of course he has to say something like that, he is the former CEO of paypal a business model that is going to be completely destroyed by bitcoin in the next decade if things keep going in this direction, it is like the CEO of western union said that bitcoin was a scam, are you going to believe someone that has interests in bitcoin not succeeding to keep their business open?

a product that costs so much money can not be useless. In many countries it is possible to perform many operations with bitcoin, it is convenient Grin

I think everyone has the right to make an opinion about bitcoin, if the market plays an important role, I think bitcoin is still worth it and it doesn't touch zero!

but if the 'popes' play, I think there is a gradual killing of btc values. hope that doesn't happen!

there are many people who say bitcoin is useless, and there are many more negative words about bitcoin, but until now bitcoin still has value even though the price continues to decline, maybe people who attack bitcoin because they feel their business is threatened with bitcoin, I'm sure bitcoin will survive and the price will rise again

if the government specializes in bitcoin only in the crypto market, then there will be no competition with conversion rates that continue to be refined, the government only needs to implement a strong policy for each exchange market, In-depth analysis for bank accounts that carry crypto transactions is important so that there is an accurate between the interests of fiat and crypto.

Bitcoin is very large used in online business, the government also does not turn a blind eye to it.

No. I think bitcoin can never be useless because bitcoin is a digital coin. Bitcoin are providing a good opportunity for earning.
Yes, bitcoin cannot be considered as useless coin. Bitcoin is one of the cryptocurrencies that is worth having, its price is still profitable even though the market is red.
