Ah I'm sure there would be some gullible people who would get sucked into something
as non-sensible as a Bitcoin Monastery.
Of course anyone is free to set up something which is not illegal but I would hope anyone
considering getting involved would think twice.
I could only imagine the people looking to set something like this would be looking at
relieving others of their money or Bitcoin.

You would think spirituality and technology would never get mixed up but here you go.
I rather think it is a mistake to mix them up. The term 'Bitcoin Monastery' itself feels very wrong and leans toward a cult like behavior. I would never support this particularly due to how it sounds and how it defeats what religion or spirituality supports.
You wouldn't believe how shocked I was as I watched the interview. I think I am familiar with how this works. These folks would establish a bitcoin monastery where a self-appointed leader would emerge. He or she would then lead the group in a cult-like manner, such like an "in-group out-group" dynamic. Eventually, they attract significant media attention so much that their sentiments begin to influence the market price of bitcoin in subtle ways.I rather think it is a mistake to mix them up.

This should never be supported or promoted.
It is really foolish to make any decision regarding Bitcoin based on guesswork or based on your own spiritual knowledge. We should apply whatever knowledge we have about the particular subject. When we try to do something outside of what we know and understand, that is where we are most likely to make mistakes. We have no idea about investment but if we invest only based on our own spiritual knowledge, we will never get anything positive from that investment. We may know less about a subject but we must apply what we know. Do not invest or do anything on such sites without first confirming yourself. First we have to do our own analysis, if our analysis reveals something positive, then we can decide on these issues.
In a YouTube interview I recently watched, the interviewee discussed 'Bitcoin monasteries' as a metaphor for merging technology with spiritual leadership, proposing a vision of utilizing technology constructively under spiritual guidance.
Bitcoin is immune to regulations and centralization even from spiritual leadership.I have not heard anything of this before on this forum or any other one and I think it would be best if we do not promote it, cause it promoted the idea that we are running a cult like organization.
Therefore, we should employ bitcoin according to our personal moral principles and not bring in any sort of spiritual perspective to it. What is you take on bitcoin monastery?
People who are very spiritual will always find ways to make everything they get involved in spiritual or fix spirituality into every activity. In my logic, this is also another example of someone trying to fix spirituality into bitcoins whereas it is far from it. If people start using technology under the guardians of spirituality you will see that the spiritual head may begin to abuse this privilege of being in charge of other people under his spiritual guardiancy. That should not be how it should be. Things should be between you and your bitcoins, not between you, your bitcoins and any other spiritual head.

I think it's some crazy idea from the depths of Internet that I would never hear about if you didn't create this topic. People just love combining completely separate topics just to see what would happen and this is one of those cases. What are people going to do in Bitcoin monasteries? Pray for Bitcoin to go up? Who will fund them? What services will they provide?
Bitcoin Monastery sounds strange to me and I would never support it because it's not a benefit of someone beliefs but it's most likely a way to get attention of those who have true beliefs of a religion. It's like trying to take advantage of the religious people by using the name of Bitcoin.
Bitcoin in itself is a crypto-currency and it has nothing to do with someone belief system. A priest can use Bitcoin similarly as an atheist or a communist. Bitcoin is free from all such things so it makes no sense to me to have a Bitcoin Monastery.

BTC is a 'free' currency, so you do not need spiritual guidance or any sort of permission to use BTC, i do not believe in the concept of BTC monasteries or the connection between the BTC technology and spirituality or religion. BTC is a tool that can be used for good or bad, just like fiat, the internet, banks, etc, the people who use these tools for bad purposes are the ones that should be targeted and not the tools in themselves.
Although I would like Bitcoin is Bitcoin and wish that it will be less used for wrong things, life is life and practically people are free to do what they want if it is legally.
I wish Bitcoin will less be used as tools of some people for their shady activities by that I mean like religion can be used for wrong and shady activities by bad people whilst religion is not bad by itself.
Bitcoin Monastery can be a thing will be abused by bad people.

I am unsure if this conversation has taken place here before and what diverse opinions the community holds. Nevertheless, I wish to express that I do not believe in the concept of a bitcoin monastery. While it may seem interesting, it is not something that is not practical. In a YouTube interview I recently watched, the interviewee discussed 'Bitcoin monasteries' as a metaphor for merging technology with spiritual leadership, proposing a vision of utilizing technology constructively under spiritual guidance. Although I am not an atheist, I strongly believe that bitcoin remains neutral in terms of spirituality, gods, and metaphysical forces. Therefore, we should employ bitcoin according to our personal moral principles and not bring in any sort of spiritual perspective to it. What is you take on bitcoin monastery?
