Bitcoin was never developed to be an investment, Satoshi Nakamoto created it to be used as a Currency. As you might know, some people use currencies as investments, like Forex trading and that is a lot more boring than trading in Crypto currencies, because other currencies have a lot less volatility.
People should just use Bitcoin as a currency and see how much better it is to use online with pseudo anonymity. I just donated to a controversial cause and nobody knows who I am. (Other payment options blocked donations to this cause)
If this is the case, those holding it and waiting for the price to pump( which I call investment) are misusing our Noble
BTC?
Use it any way you want, since part of the appeal of Bitcoin is the freedom it offers you. But the point is, if you're looking solely at profitability and not the wider benefits being conferred to you, then you're missing out on all the stuff that keeps most of us engaged and interested.
Are you familiar with the phrase "
money is power"? This is considered by many to be one of the most prominent technological breakthroughs in history, having the potential to revolutionise financial independence for millions of people worldwide. The very existence of Bitcoin is a challenge to the conventional notion that everyone has to rely on the banking monopolies that effectively run our entire world. There are some people out there with vested interests who would much prefer it if this didn't exist. Because it's not only a threat to their business model, but also the way in which we've just blindly done things for centuries. This is a dramatic shift in power from them to you and there isn't really a way for them to prevent it if people decide this is what they want. So here we are in the formative stages of a revolution and you think it's getting
boring? Look at the bigger picture.
Then again, it doesn't surprise me that people generally aren't appreciative of what they have. Few of us are excited by the fact that we have electricity, plumbing and a roof over our heads until we suddenly don't have it anymore and realise what we lost. If you take things for granted, it's only natural you will get bored easily.
