Topic: Curious About Bitcoin. (Read 447 times)

People are afraid to invest in bitcoin. They only know about it when there is news everywhere that bitcoin has grown in the yen. Then everyone begins to study it carefully, but do nothing, because it is very expensive to buy it.

I guess he did plagiarize   too bad for him he didn't put the source or the reference of the web where he got the article and the entire post.

Try to visit this https://news.bitcoin.com/nigerians-buy-use-bitcoin/ and you will clearly notice the Title of the Article " Curious About Bitcoin, Nigerians see .... " is already a sign of what he have done.

 Also this one sentence fell under.Nigeria has consistently topped the chart in the past 12 months. not quoting it is a crime, isn't it?

Although he is a newbie, he should have put the sources especially on the data he provided about the most searches in ones country.

This is a must ^

One of the growing earning today is with the use of cryptocurrency most of the people today would like to join into the world of crypto, and most of us are using the internet to make transactions to the other people who would like to earn too just like most of them and us are using the search engine Google because now most of the data and information today are coming from the Internet and by the use of the google search engine they are quickly filtering out the information used by the people. By that can now get an idea of how does the bitcoin works and other coins and also by the information and knowledge of the other people we can make any conclusion and use those ideas and apply into our own.

These search numbers indicate us about the usage of bitcoins. A mass amount of population is holding bitcoins and hence it is common to see these high number of searches on google. A lot of people might come to know about bitcoins from google as google is the home for each and every information available on the world wide web.

Google is a educative platform which can even teach us how to earn bitcoins. I just hope that many more people come across bitcoins no matter from which platform they come to know about those but the mass promotion is something which is required in order to boost the sale and utility of bitcoins.

Look like those keywords was done by newcomers who get interested to bitcoin. Because the old user will never make the keyword like that, they will find the article's platform directly like cointelegeraph, CCN coin and etc. This thing has done when bitcoin reach its all time high, at 2017 ago the keyword of bitcoin has typed by many people at that time. I just hoping that the newcomers came to the right platform like this forum, because they can learn about bitcoin correctly. They can read many useful thread to know more about bitcoin even they can make a discussion about they concern againt bitcoin.

There are millions of people which also means that there are millions of brains into the decentralized world of currencies. This might make a number of people fetch bitcoins only as a source of income or a digital asset to speculate but for some people, bitcoins also are a medium or maintaining privacy and sending oversea transactions in just a couple of clicks.

A lot of people are using bitcoins for their own benefits which make them more close to bitcoins. OP have just mentioned about Nigeria but there also are a number of other countries which have started significant growth towards bitcoins. This may lead for a betterment of the blockchain network.

Newbies are not that knowledgeable in exchange, but professional holders are. If you're new to cryptocurrency, you will always ask Google because the only thing that you know is Google and not the exchange. In some countries, they ban cryptocurrency that's why it is not easy to access it using google.

As mass adoption develops, the bitcoin still continuously become an ideal digital currency because it is the best in crypto. Most of the people searched the mostly use crypto and it is bitcoin, who will look for the less profitable coin like altcoin? Probably, newbie or beginners are looking for something that will really benefit them easily. So that's why they look for the most famous and coin with large population.

Little did they know that there's something more that bitcoin can do and not only its price is making users excited.

Bitcoin really is the best cryptocurrency and the most used in any part of the world. The mass adoption is literally increasing and the people who searched for it is also increasing, it means that people are gaining some ideas and willing to invest their money if they find out that bitcoin can really changed the way they transact with people. Some people who seek for bitcoin comes from a professional bitcoin holder that enlighten their minds about the blockchain technology. They will learn more when they start engaging with bitcoin most especially when they started in a good season of bitcoin.

We all know that bitcoin is really widely known all over the world but the thing is the number of getting curious about it is already increase and maybe because the reason behind it is the massive increasing of it's value from the past days and the bitcoin is kind of having a bullish in the oast days so maybe that would be one the best factor why the bitcoin become have a massive people who get curious about it is because of that. Bitcoin will be more popular and famous when it is getting higher the value because we ourselves know that when there is a chance to gain money we will be able to search and make research about it whatever happens.

but why people need to search for Bitcoin price over Google when they can directly check via exchange?does the Google answer is more accurate than just opening each sites available?like Coinmarketcapitalization that most of us uses as reference ?and also why OP did not put Links about where is the basis of his statistics.
lol he thinks that the indicated numbers in OP is the prices of Bitcoin ,not the numbers of Searches made by people asking for price .maybe he did not totally read the OP so he has something to ask.

Dunno if mine counts a lot but speaking about my habits in searching btc price equivalent to USD price were quite often, so I don't know if people have the same habits as mine. This seems like one of those mindset or habit that indicates that people are hyped about this price surge lately. That 10k price mark would lead to plenty of expectation to a lot of people, and I would be expecting a lot if I am a newbie in investing in Bitcoin . 
@OP, you should try to put your source in that stats. I would also suggest to give the statistics globally. We can see the countries are really hyped in a possible upcoming bull run.

It's widely known that when bitcoin surges, these keywords about bitcoin are also surging as well from those people that are monitoring the price but didn't bought. While many of us doesn't have to go on google and search with the use of those keywords because we know what are the websites that's following the track of bitcoin's price. Is this stat only coming from Nigeria or all over the world? @artemis3 well, it's true that might some articles made for hyping bitcoin was read by these folks.

Well, although mostly searched keywords is about price, like i usually only type "bitcoin to usd" to check bitcoin price, at least people still do it. Maybe for new people they search about bitcoin price to see right time to make investment. But who knows? maybe just hope new people will come again and make a lot of demands and bitcoin price can be pumped again like in past.

Where did you see that? And why think it's important? I don't understand what you mean. The bad news here is people are mostly looking for the price of Bitcoin on Google and not for what it is. It means people who are interested in Bitcoin as for now already possess Bitcoins, and the amount of newcomers is low. We don't seem to be in a massive adoption period.

I'm surprised "Bitcoin price USD" is higher than "bitcoin usd" or "usd bitcoin", that's what I search for when I don't have my price monitor open. But that's probably just me I think

1) any invention is evil, appear a recalculation of the complexity of reality and a need for this invention appear
2) anarchy and decentralization are also evil, people will kill each other without control

A perfect example for your personal text:


Speaking of google data, it reminds me of this:
https://www.forbes.com/sites/billybambrough/2019/09/05/something-very-strange-is-going-on-with-bitcoin-and-btc-google-searches/#6cd73abd47ea
If there is something that once faked can lead to a monetary gain, people will do that.

Anyhow, just because people search for a term it doesn't mean they are also going to buy it and for sure it's no measure to the amount that can be invested by the ones doing the searches. 100 kids searching for "bitcoin doubler club" can mean only one thing, 100 kids will lose their money.

That's irrelevant to Bitcoin. Bitcoin doesn't care who mines it or where, new blocks are bound to appear every 10 minutes, if global hashrate deviates too much, it will correct itself every 2016 blocks (so called diff adjust).

Bitcoin also doesn't care who owns what, as long as nodes communicate with each other, they can use internet, a so called "darknet" or a community mesh for all it cares.

Only 14% is left to mine, and this is rapidly slowing into a crawl. Mining is becoming irrelevant, it has already successfully served its purpose, and it will shrink too, eventually. Thanks to Bitcoin's clever code (the halvings) it doesn't occur abruptly, but smoothly. Its all going according to design.

Probably some mass media did an article or show in those countries, which prompted people to search about it

"Do you remember bitcoin? Its still worth 10k USD after all these years"...

They people finally realize they might have been lied by the nay-sayers, those that always disregard bitcoin. "What if i didn't listen to that idiot and bought some bitcoin when they were 500 USD...

Unfortunately, people should expect such spectacular price increases anymore. Sure its still better than fiat, but don't get disappointed because the same performance would mean going from 10k into 200k.

But who knows if people are dreaming of such, especially in impoverished countries like mine and Nigeria. By the time people learn the truth, it is too late for spectacular gains. This is the investor's dilemma, always the highest risk gives the highest profits, once its known to be safe, everybody joins and the profit lowers.

Once upon a time bitcoin was seen as risky as your average altcoin, those who trusted it back then, got the prize of a lifetime. The rest of us can only hope for the leftovers. Almost all of the altcoin believers are waiting for a "second chance" hoping their bet would reach similar results, unfortunately it isn't happening, because the market is already there. Yes you can still profit, but never to the same extent.

Its like the profit you could make when building the first "something" inaugurating a market, vs later joining an already existing market.

The price action of Bitcoin and most other cryptocurrencies has changed favorably in the last few months, as a result, people are hearing more about it as news outlets and local media discuss the growth.

I don't think that this is anything unique to Nigeria, you would probably find the exact same search trends in most other countries, particularly those where Bitcoin adoption is growing—such as in Africa and Asia.

Nigeria is definitely not driving this bullish movement in any shape and form, if that's what you're suggesting.
