Topic: Do you like bitcoin, what's your reason? - page 36. (Read 7552 times)
The idea behind bitcoin is simply genius. I like being a part of an on going experiment of decentralized currency. I hope to look back one day and be able to say I was a member of the bitcoin community when it was only worth $5 (kind of already happening). My libertarian tendencies also agree with the entire concept of bitcoin as well.
I like bitcoin because of its elegant solution to the most important problems of current monetary systems.
ya.ya.yo!

I have tried some ecurrenies like paypal, LR but there are many rules and fees.
It's a beautiful concept that marks the true start of the 21st century.

BTC
Simply put, it cannot be taken away by the powers that be
Tell pirate/knight that.
His statement stands, they can only take paper BTC or BTC converted to fiat (or simply fiat)
Tell DPR that.
I love bitcoin because 2 time I lost my password and both time I lost my all payment its great work and first time happen to me like this 
Hey bro, some people just aren't smart enough to handle their own money, or they do not take enough precautions, for these types they are better off sticking with their centralized controlled fiat
Bitcoins are for big boy's only

Well I would guess pure meaning no middle man, and transparent meaning open source............
Bitcoin is what currency should be - pure, transparent, for the people, by the people, and only as valuable as it is useful.
As every currency, it is only worth what everyone think it is.
So, tomorrow it might be worth nothing.
That said, what makes you think that bitcoin is "pure" and "transparent"?
It's just awesome to be able to earn, spend, transfer money from my desk, around the world. I can make bitcoin in my spare time, it's awesome.

I like bitcoins to speculate, but I am not sure that it will be a good currency.
Whether or not it is adopted directly or indirectly by the masses, bitcoin is one of the best moneys the world has ever witnessed: it's arguably (almost) as good as, and regarding portability, superior to, gold or silver. (I discount altcoins for this purpose because Bitcoin is the innovator, the first mover, whereas the others are copycats or semi-copycats.)
If Bitcoin should fail, the one good thing that will come from that (barring Armageddon scenario of course) is that it will be replaced by something even better.

Now one thinks of it, isn't posting on a Bitcoin forum asking peeps if they like bitcoin a bit like asking users of a pro-marijuana forum if they like Weed? 
that's JPMorgan (and HSBC) naked shorting silver. GS mostly just rapes their customers, not the futures markets.
I love this bitcoin because I want to be rich very soon and hope this will works for this
Bitcoin isn't a get-rich-quick scheme...
That's just a bonus.

nobody can check your identitiy and you are free to use this
True, but if you got it legally they would have to put you in jail first
If Bitcoin is to achieve even half it's promise, it cannot be viewed by the majority as an easy way to evade the law.
I think I heard somewhere less than 1% of BTC transactions are in relation to illegal activity? I don't know how accurate that number is or how in translates into reality.

It helps to not lump all "illegal activity" together.
If you mean drugs, I could see 2-3% of the BTC economy being that.
Evading taxes? Meh, the very term is vague in the context of true digital cash (what if you never convert to fiat?) and there's no way to ever know. Although since you could do the same with physical cash too, I don't see that it's very relevant.
Anything else? Probably close to non-existent.
