I will not support that bitcoin is the last hope for financial independence as of this age. Bitcoin is one of the ways to financial independence no argument about this

What's going on, he must be in jail? How can he make his tweets? I read allegations of money laundering and advertising scam projects from the US government months ago.

Cryptocurrencies are the new form of money and are the result of the internet and economics. We are working on the internet and using them mostly for economic activities, so the birth of cryptocurrencies is inevitable. Governments are monopolizing the issuance of currency. They issue and manipulate monetary value for political purposes rather than creating an equivalent for labor and commodities.
America is printing too much money and the US economy is operating on public debt. Cryptocurrency is really a good solution when it is decentralized, transparent and unmodifiable. I am referring to Bitcoin.

John McAfee's predictions is purely based on the drug he is doing at the time when he post his tweet or the amount of money he is offered to make that tweet. He was exposed a few years ago, that he will promote any project ..if he gets paid for it. (So his credibility in the Crypto community has been destroyed)  Roll Eyes

Also, the documentary "Gringo: The Dangerous Life of John McAfee" that was aired back in 2016.... ultimately thrashed his image and credibility, so people do not take him seriously anymore.  Tongue
Yet people listen to market manipulators like Elon Musk instead. People need to stop being led like sheep.

Eloncoin.org - Mars, here we come!

is he allowed to.use twitter while in prison?

he lost his relevance after he scammed users by promoting scam projects in crypto. the community could have been the only people who will back him up but he just took too much meth. he must have been drunk when he tweeted that.

Jogn McAfee is talking about financial independence,but nobody can't use a cryptocurrency exchange without KYC verification.You can't buy and sell cryptocurrencies without KYC verification.Is this "financial independence"?

Don't speak for everyone, some people have the ability to trade crypto without KYC - after all, you know there are DEX? In addition, some countries have not yet introduced a mandatory KYC for trading up to a certain amount, and I can say that I still have the privilege of being able to go to the physical branch of the crypto exchange and buy or sell crypto without KYC. Please be careful how you write people's names, maybe John will get mad at you if he sees how careless you are Wink



Just when we forgot about this parasite, someone gave him access to the Internet, which is a real shame - because although I don't mind that prisoners also have access to the Internet, given how he used his social networks, it would be better not to have access to them. JM hasn't figured out any truth we don't already know - China has been very negative about Bitcoin from the beginning, with the difference that it has mostly turned its head the other way when it comes to mining or mining equipment - now that they've made their CBDC, it seems they change their attitude here as well.

McAfee sure has a lot of free time for tweeting in prison but I don't believe him when se said that he lost everything from lawsuits and that he feels from free than ever. Smiley
I do however agree with him that we the people are in war with system and governments.

Well, he is right about it though, with how things are right now, I think that cryptocurrency is the only one that can easily be accessed if we want to become involved to our finances. I am a student and if I didn't know about crypto, I would probably be broke right now and all the things that I want to buy would probably be a pipe dream for me.

It would have if we don't have the rich few who thr power to control the market to their advantage, financial freedom means deregulation which can result to whales in control as we have witness recently, aside from government control we should also recognise the other form of control, which to me is far more worst, a market were a few can easily determine it faith don't seem like freedom to be honest.

Many people are indeed prepared for the upcoming war since bitcoin was created. There is no doubt that when the custodial world meets decentralization, it will be a looming war on the horizon. Honestly, I want the government and the blockchain to coexist in a world where technology reaches an outstanding level but from what we see, crypto is being regulated and ban over the world, especially in China, where most miners and mining pool located

John McAfee is a popular influencer, however, it seems that the existence of Elon Musk in the crypto game makes his impacts gradate. Things will change rapidly in the future, including investment entities and assets, as well as the monetary system. The combination of these elements will reform our current cultures, beliefs, and economy so as to create a whole new horizon that we have never seen before. And unfortunately, it can be either positive or negative to us

I highly agree about McAfee’s statements that crypto is the last hope for financial independence, and it’s what Satoshi Nakamoto has envisioned when he released his whitepaper back in 2008. It should be free from all government insight where they can’t control our funds. Cryptocurrencies are created for the people, in which we have the full custody of it and not the third party.

Why should it be free from "all government insight"? Do you really believe that this is practical? Governments around the world (examples are US, China and India) have stepped up their operations against cryptocurrency. On the outside they claim that this is to reduce tax evasion and to prevent terrorist funding, but the ultimate aim is obviously surveillance of the users. If you really want to be outside the "government insight', then you need to migrate to countries which respect individual privacy, such as Switzerland.

I agree that Crypto is our last hope for financial independence, although I do not like McAfee. We can make money from Crypto, which we are difficult to try out there. But if we want to make money from Crypto, that will be more challenging than the other business, whether online or offline. But I am sure that we will have that opportunity, as long as we can keep trying to do what it needs.

But no matter what we've been involved in, we need to seriously do that thing and don't give up before achieving what we want. So before Crypto can become accepted globally, we still have a chance to prepare ourselves and plan to have a better future.

If the global governments around the world start a war against crypto,the cryptocurrency prices will drop 10x or even more.The current Bitcoin price is somewhere around 37K USD.If the US government begins a war against BTC,the price will drop below 1K USD for sure.

I'm also not a McAfee fan but I agree with him...

So far the government has been controlled by bankers to control the economy and this is what makes us unable to be free and restrained. Cryptocurrency is our tool to break free from banks and governments with Bitcoin as the driving force.

Don't get fooled by this loser. He did all that he could to destroy Bitcoin. He stole the hard earned money from tens of thousands of cryptocurrency users, by recommending scam projects. And when these projects failed, he even refused to listen to the victims and mocked them. Now he is trying once more to garner support from the sector by giving out statements such as this one. Let's not make the same mistake that we did 3-4 years ago. He deserves to rot behind the bars for the rest of his life.

That makes sense, it's not about any price prediction or any pumping altcoin that he once did just as Elon's doing this time.

Lately, there was news about bitcoin against the government cracking down mining operations and there are those banks that agree with those skeptics about it.

Financial independence is a vague term, probably he wanted to say about crypto as a financial system outside the realm of government which is not sure if we can achieve it. Governments can target every miner with drones, or they can simply make possession of crypto assets a crime with death penalty and no one will dare to touch it, well, except for extremist minority.

Hope this doesn't look like Government is fighting crypto. I believe bad people in governments and others are fighting True Crypto. They'll need to break alots law to "ban" something that's way safer than centralized currency.
 Well Decentralized Currency governed by good rules remains the way forward.

I am not a fan of John McAfee's predictions but seems his predictions about the governments and crypto war something potential. Once we see a potential move in Bitcoin price then the negative step came out from China government. Those who believe in decentralization then should agree with what said John McAfee about financial independence, crypto is the last hope.  What do you think?

I wasn't aware that John McAfee thinks so positive about crypto currencies, good for him. Even though Elon Musk and China try to kill bitcoins, I still think positive myself about it. It just feels like a minor setback, it could take a few months but eventually we are going to recover. Governments tried in the past to ban bitcoins without any luck. There is just no way around it, and after Elon Musk I am believing in any rich people anymore.

We all agree with the statement, which was originally made by Satoshi Nakamoto in 2009. His real inspiration for creating cryptocurrency was to provide financial independence for ordinary people around the world. That said, I am surprised with these words being repeated by John McAfee. I regard McAfee as one of the guys who did the most damage to the reputation of cryptocurrency. He pushed back the adoption and acceptability of Bitcoin by at least a couple of years, by promoting various scam projects. He managed to tarnish the image of cryptocurrency for a long time. Hopefully spending the remainder of his life in jail will result in some sort of repentance and remorse from this criminal.
