i dont think that bitcoin is a religion as in religion you have to believe something even though no one can prove that its real or something like that, and bitcoin is real, no one can say that its fake so i guess its not religion
Religion is something we follow since we are born that's what our parents teach us. And following bitcoin as a religion is something far away. We don't believe that bitcoin is a religion it is just a currency which can be replaced by any other currency in the future. So it is useless to say that bitcoin is a religion.
Religion can be changed, acquired or removed from ones life at any point in time. You could be 1 or you could be 101, it doesn't matter. Beliefs change, and they do not have to be mutually exclusive. Many people believe in Christianity, but also believe in spirits and supernatural phenomena even though these are considered blasphemous by Christian doctrine.
It's not only a currency. It is the first time we have a verifiably immutable ledger, essentially a sequential timestamped database wherein history cannot be altered. In human history there has never been a database that could not have been altered by some means. Bitcoin is continuously evolving, and adapting.
No it is definitely not a religion. Members of this forum might have a religious like craze about their Internet toy but bitcoin is far from a religion.
For me, Bitcoin is still something new, something that still needs to grow and expand. Heck, most of the people didn't even hear about Bitcoin in this world.
Why not?
