Not anti-government - anti-bank because they will be difficult to fight, we still need banks for daily transaction needs this has become the majority of uses in society that are impossible to eliminate.

We can't be anti banks and not be anti-government in the way they handle our finances because the governments controls the banks and we're fighting to let go of centralization while embracing decentralization with the help of Bitcoin Blockchain. We don't need banks if we're our own banks with Bitcoin non custodial wallets. We can use our wallets to send and receive Bitcoin which is more efficient than the banks so we don't need the banks and if the government don't want to accept that then we don't need them as well, we can elect in new government that'll be pro decentralization.

I am wondering; Do you trust bitcoin holders?

I trust Bitcoin hodlers more than the government, Bitcoin hodlers or believers are those fighting for our freedom to have privacy to our finances. The banks don't provide privacy and they don't have enough reserved money tben the only security that they promise can't be guaranteed since if they go bankrupted there isn't much they can do to return the funds of everyone that had money with them. What's there not to trust a Bitcoin hodlers when he isn't doing anything to make him untruthful.

Since bitcoin promotes mostly anti-government, banks, etc.


I am wondering; Do you trust bitcoin holders?

I think the word "anti-government" is not an appropriate to use here, I mean I dont think that bitcoin is build in order to oppose government banks or what itd just that we could clearly see that crypto currency or bitcoin rather is a strong currency and a good innovation that could "possibly" replaced traditional banks, yes there's a lot of bitcoin holders or bitcoin enthusiast want traditional banks to be replaced right away but in reality it is a big changes, it is big that if not planned carefully the banking system or financial system of the world could be in chaos, for me I dont want banks to be abolished I just want that bitcoin can be recognized world wide and be used world wide like how can we used traditional currencies, so yeah I do trust bitcoin holders because why not? I'm one of them, but of course not all of them, as I don't know them personally.

Well if having to hide my privacy is somehow anti-government then yea, I guess you can say Bitcoin promotes anti-government. But afaik it's not? Pretty sure that's part of the basic freedom that we're supposed to have.

As for trusting bitcoin holders, with what specifically? Kind of broad really. I mean would I trust a random bitcoin holder on the internet? Probably not. Do I trust myself, who is a bitcoin holder? Well who the hell will I trust if not myself lol.

Bitcoin isn't successful without Fiat currencies.. I don't understand what you mean by "anti-government"... I'm guessing that I'd mean a user being autonomous and against the govern's decision on censorships. In an actual sense, an individual can't counterbalance the effect of the government's decision so that doesn't count!
For me, it's totally anti-government and anti-bank as well. But due to decentralised behaviour, I am still holding. 
Would you believe that most bank directors and managers are HODLing Bitcoin like no man's business?

I'm on bitcoin but I'm not saying that I'm anti-bank or anti-government because after all we must be subject to the government and we also can't rule out banks in the life we do now because fiat is in control for all the needs we have so even though I'm on bitcoin I wouldn't say that I'm anti-bank and anti-government it's just that for now my choice is different.

But it doesn't matter because when my choice is different it doesn't mean I don't like the opposite because everything will be chaotic if I think bitcoin is right and the others are wrong and vice versa.
We don't need to be anti anything to be in bitcoin because as long as we still need other than bitcoin then why not use it as an advantage in surviving a currently difficult life where fiat is a support for daily needs and bitcoin is a future investment that until now we still have hope that bitcoin will be very profitable for the future.

It's a rhetorical question, it's that simple, right?  they are a part not the whole, and that hodl percentage, although it is quite high/important in bitcoin, and consequently the trend, is only determined in volume, that is, we trust the community. Therefore, some holders are there for years, others for an indefinite period of time, it is a cycle/users-holders.

Bitcoin isn't a threat to the government directly; it's a threat to the bank, which is totally centralized. So ultimately, when the banking system is affected, it will affect the government's economic policy. As we know, holding Bitcoin in a non-custodial wallet means we are our own bank. So banks always seem to stand against Bitcoin. Some banks are supporting but not adapting at all. If your government considers using Bitcoin legal, then holding Bitcoin is fine and isn't anti-government action. For me, it's totally anti-government and anti-bank as well. But due to decentralised behaviour, I am still holding.

Since bitcoin promotes mostly anti-government, banks, etc.

I am a BTC holder and I trust myself because I don't trust banks and some governments. Situation is not the same everywhere, like in my place the main state bank of our country made the statement that they are not responsible for the money people store in their banks. I was like then who is responsible. And how you (banks) can say such things. Till then I never stored my funds in banks. Most of them are in BTC or other alts. I know it can be problematic if I won't save my funds in fiat like in time of high fluctuations.

But I hope I will be saved as fluctuations are not permanent. They will end at last. My point here is, even if it promotes anti-government, or banks, it also made them realize that they can't loot or play with people's money anymore. BTC has reminded them there reputations and place. Now they will be playing within there boundaries. Many are even adopting it (governments and banks both). So its a two way road, one way is adopting while other is opposing. I think we should look at the bright side.

Having financial private life and being your own bank is financial freedom, and not anti-bank or anti-government. It is the government that is against the privacy of their citizens and wants to have control over everything her citizens are doing.

Bitcoin hodlers are normal people with different mindset, and everyone has the reason why they adopted bitcoin, if there is no trust in bitcoin enthusiasts, it means that p2p will bring more harm to the system. We have the good, bad and ugly, it is just the government that are making it look as if bitcoin enthusiasts are criminals of which we have more criminals using fiat for their illicit activities that government is even aware of but they keep don't bring it to the public.

Nobody can do without the government or banks because that is our tradition.

Simple and ordinary people that are trying to make lives convenient and safe for thier livelihood.Our governments are trying so hard to create a clash in between.Its definitely up to every person to reciprocate the same efforts,support,indulgence and keep trying to improve the economic conditions.

Bitcoin is more like a support system to us financially,and its not like how the government constantly regards it as a tool that promotes financial crimes.Bitcoin is freedom for all and it suits whatever situation you'll consider it;based on your knowledge,trust and awareness.

I really hope you know what you are saying, when you say anti banks, I will agree with you fully but when you said Anti government, I will agree with you partially because there are some fiscal policies the government make that the banks are using to control the people and that's privacy concern, other than that Bitcoin is anti Bank and complete does the opposite of what Banks are doing and doesn't really have anything to with how governments does their things.

Wait a minute, do you think that if the government own more 70% of the circulating supply, you think they will sell? Hell no, that's exactly what they want and they don't have it. If they have the opportunity to hold that amount, regulation of Bitcoin becomes simple to implement and miners wouldn't have choice than to agree with every of their decisions. Some of the seek road Bitcoin that were seize by US government aren't sold till today, don't you think they have plan for holding those Bitcoins.

Pretty sure these days, nobody is anti government. Or at least the majority of Bitcoin holders aren’t. If they were they wouldn’t of KYC on exchanges to buy and sell their crypto.
You seem to be confused. A bitcoin holder doesn't buy and sell crypto. That's what traders do. Holders own bitcoin and they hold it.
There are many other ways of exchanging bitcoin to goods and services than trading it on a centralized exchange. That's how you get fiat money and selling for fiat isn't the goal of many holders Wink

Quote
Most of the holders are probably nothing but speculators.

Speak for yourself.

They aren’t in it for the advances bitcoin can make for society, they are in it for the monetary gains. Many earlier adopters were different. But these days, everyone is getting into crypto to get rich, not go against the government.

That's why I'm not getting into "crypto" but hold bitcoin instead.

Can you explain to us how bitcoin is "anti-government"? Because I can't seem to understand what you mean. In no part of bitcoin does it go against government. It doesn't break any government laws, it's just a coins and an asset. It's actually government that's against Bitcoin.
I hold bitcoin and I don't see how I'm against the government. I'm not breaking any laws by holding bitcoin. I would only be breaking any law when the government put a law against holding bitcoin.
Even the decentralised nature of bitcoin isn't against the government because there's no law against it.

What, kind of words and narratives these are bro, when Bitcoin promoted anti-government policy haha seems like you are naming the decentralization as the anti-government policy, I want to remind you that Bitcoin is just a payment system, these days now you can say a digital asset (Digital Gold), Bitcoin promotes the decentralization and self-custody of the funds with ensured privacy, security, and transparency of the transaction haha these are not Ai generated words, these are my emotions haha this the first time I've made a perfect chin of these words.

In the second half, I want to let you know why I should trust Bitcoin holders rather than trusting them I trust the Bitcoin community if the old holders are willing to sell then new buyers are in the queue, So I trust the Bitcoin community and reliability.

I would trust him if I knew the Bitcoin holders around me. If not, I wouldn't believe it, especially if I had never met him. Bitcoin is not anti-government and neither is it anti-bank. But even though the government cannot control Bitcoin, Bitcoin can go hand in hand with Fiat. We use Bitcoin and Fiat at the same time as Bitcoin to complement the shortcomings of Fiat. I am not anti-government or anti-bank and know that people who use Bitcoin are also not anti-government and anti-bank, especially those around me who still use banks.

I am not anti government or anti-bank, for me it is more of a freedom.
I do trust Bitcoin holders since I am also one of them, and I like to put my money into it rather than letting it sit on my bank.
I consider it as currency and investment at the same time.

Who says bitcoin is anti-government? It's just our freedom to hold assets without a third party, which means it's not anti-government even though on the contrary there are governments that are anti-bitcoin but I don't care about that so far the government still supports bitcoin even though it is a commodity asset.

At least in my country bitcoin is not banned, it is even taxed in every transaction on the CEX.

Of course trusting Holder bitcoin, this is already some know I hold and has produced a high ROI meaning that there are still many people gaining confidence in bitcoin can change their lives.
So I will stay in the bitcoin circle to keep holding.

At some point, I always get to believe that no matter how much decentralized bitcoin and other digital cryptocurrencies want to present themselves, there will always be a need for the local bank and I’m sure it might not be directly but it will still take a lot of hard work to totally ignore our local fiats

I understand how much we are getting fed up with the consistent extortion from bitcoin holders and traders and even the common man and that’s why we all want cryptocurrency to thrive but the truth is that, bitcoin and its likes will still need to push more harder to prove it’s trustworthiness and reliability before such trust will be bestowed 😂
Let’s take things with crypto and stop making it seem we can just cancel our local fiat overnight

While there are certain ideologies that make more sense with Bitcoin than others, Bitcoin unites people from all sides of the political spectrum, actually, and I think that even on this forum we can see how diverse opinions can be. Even if someone adheres to libertarianism, for instance, which may go naturally well with Bitcoin, it doesn't mean being anti-government because you might actually be a part of government and support the minimal state conception of it (like Argentina's President). Also, being against the Central bank is different from being against banks in general.
I think a matter of trust depends more on one's usual approach than on ideology. I'm a pretty trusting person, so I sort of have a default trust for other people until they prove me wrong. But that doesn't mean I'd share access to my accounts or disclose certain private information to those people. It's just basic background trust as a lack of distrust, and I have it both for Bitcoin holders and non-holders.

I didn't see that. We talk about them based on the point of view that we feel fits their system.
Bitcoin is not anti-government and anti-banking. They have their own system and Bitcoin is not here to oppose it.
As a Bitcoin holder, I am also a person who uses the banking system in my daily affairs.

I am wondering; Do you trust bitcoin holders?
Obviously I believe in Bitcoin holders as people who know what is important for them to do for the long term.

Fact that the people who are very public about bitcoin as anarchists, does not make it anti-government. The proper terms are "decentralized" and "censorship resistant".

How can I not believe it, I have owned bitcoin almost 9 years. Maybe there are many more than me and maybe they are also trying to improve like me. If you look at hisori, then I think it's not just a matter of decentralization. Many of them are attracted because of their value. Many new people are coming in trying to improve economic conditions.

I hold Bitcoin and I currently believe it can achieve better value. The crypto industry has changed as more than just a means of transfer but as a moneymaker.
