Bitcoin is not a religion, it is a community. But you can draw some parallels.
Bitcoin enthusiasts blame those who want to replace bitcoin because these people are willing to manipulate the market in order to benefit themselves without thinking about the consequences that may be very harmful to crypto universe as a whole. What you categorized as atheists are the guys who would sacrifice the entire crypto market to make their personal fortune grow faster, what includes defamating bitcoin and overpricing their own projects importance. I'm not saying they can't try, but to every action there is always a reaction. Of course bitcoin holders will defend the original crypto currency among all.
I think it can't be compared to a religion, because religion subject involves the spiritual world and elements which are unknown to us and to the science. In crypto's debate, arguments are purely based in physical world laws and elements. We don't rely in faith to defend bitcoin or to defend it should be replaced by an altcoin.

I sometimes wonder whether Bitcoin has established a religion.
Those of us who are fixed holders of Bitcoin are believers of Bitcoin.
Those who try to eliminate or replace Bitcoin are heretics or atheists. What is happening now I want to call it a religious war
In this way, Satoshi , the creator of Bitcoin, can be called a god. He changed the order of the world and brought revolution.

Probably no more than hedgefunds or the banking industry have established religions.

BTC is just speculative assets which own by a large number of people and it doesn't mean it can be compared to religion just simply because the majority of those people believe in BTC's potential growth.

Sometimes the good use of adjectives, nouns and vervos, together with good premises lead to good "guesses", it is also what leads some writers to create novels, short stories, science fiction, etc. Sometimes they border on the absurd, but they are entertaining.

Scientists distance themselves from the above or the science.
It is not that the above[1] is wrong, in fact it entertains and it is a field where sometimes things are so good that someone can win prizes or become a good writer, but never an prize NoBel.
His Op, falls so as not to send him to another place, in the first paragraph [1]
Thank you for your reminder. Sorry that my mother tongue is not English. I will work hard to learn English in the future.

Lol, not really, it's not like something that has believers in it will automatically be a religion right? And bitcoin doesn't have that great establishment that will keep its followers lol, if we want to compare it to religion. Since many are willing to abandoned it as easy as it goes.
But the thing that satoshi is unknown, like god is kinda similar though lol. Many people value satoshi even knowing who he is, or even if he is really real or not. But no, i don't think bitcoin is like a religion.
Another interesting question. I am curious about how religion attracts believers when it is first established (excluding the case where parents are believers). Religion connects everyone through stories, and more and more people listen to it. Many people believed it and became a small group and gradually became a religion.But the thing that satoshi is unknown, like god is kinda similar though lol.

Bitcoin uses more reliable blockchain technology to connect all traders together. Now that we have formed a forum, we can completely change it into a religious organization to persuade more people to "believe".
By the way, I participated in the project you signed and they disappointed me（Irrelevant price）. I don't want to say more about the specific reasons. I can only say that his team is not very good (if you are a member of the team, I will withdraw my words).

I disagree.
Unlike religion, bitcoiners base their "beliefs" on logic and math, not just because this or that guys say so. Imho it's a huge difference.
BS 99% of the people here can't even read code, or do math.
Bitcoiners beliefs are GREED & FEAR, but mostly greed.
Bitcoiners are not logical, this is insanity.
BTC CAP a month ago was bigger than $1.2T, bigger than most USA company's capitalization, like it gong to keep going up and suck up the entire earths GDP, bitcoiners are mental midgets.
This collective craziness, in my opinion, is always motivated solely by greed and the desire to increase profits. People's interest will collapse along with the price if the price goes below 20-10 thousand dollars again. Only the most ardent supporters and admirers will be left. Then, since it has become mainstream, it will be possible to discuss the flock and other theological topics when it is still too early.
Yes, real gold is not afraid of fire. There is only one possibility to hold Bitcoin for a long time, not only is proficient in blockchain technology, but also has a strong spirit of decentralization You may believe in something very strict, but not everything that you believe becomes a religion.
Religion is something that you believe, you use for your daily life activities, and what you believe to implement in everything you are doing during this life and hereafter.
But, Bitcoin isn't it. This is just a belief in a thing, earning money, and then crashing can hurt everyone. I disagree.

Will technically BTC is 'cult', not a religion, where religion is recognized by society, a 'cult' is usually detrimental to the well being of its members.

Is politics a religion?
Is being a democrat or republican a religion? Or is being a socialist, libertarian, conservative, or liberal a religion?
Or watching CNN? MSNBC? Fox News?
Is believing in your president/prime minister, Bill Nye, Carl Sagan, or Kim Kardashian a religion?
They each can have cultish elements and ridiculous human behavior promoting them, but none are religions, much like bitcoin is not a religion.
Unless you think bitcoin promotes something to do with the afterlife, creation of the universe, the supernatural, or a god, then it is not a religion and your definitions are highly confused or you are being disingenuous.

I would never agree that bitcoin is called a religion just because people believe in it. Public trust in bitcoin is only limited to the potential future of bitcoin and the developing innovation in the financial world. It is different from religion because basically bitcoin is a revolutionary currency which is different from fiat currency. I have to say that it doesn't deserve to be called a religion regardless of what belief you hold.
Besides that argument is flawed in the sense that if a sense of believing is the only thing you need to establish that something is a religion then almost everything is a religion, after all when you make a call you believe it is going to connect to the person you are calling for, when you turn on your TV you believe there is going to be electricity running to turn it on, bitcoin is the same, bitcoin is based on principles we have verified for thousands of years so we believe in it but this does not mean that it is a religion.
For sure many people believes in bitcoin but that doesn't makes it a religion and truly many are also against it, there are more deep beliefs and culture connected to religion, bitcoin hodlers has fate that bitcoin will fetch them profit from just holding this simply shows there believe in bitcoin but not actually so deep, because at an incoming bear season most people will sell of to maintain profits there made already and most people panic sells at any FUD which occur in the crypto space, so this shows their beliefs ain't strong.

How about we do talk about those fans with those celebrities out there? Since they are fans or supporters then we can call this as a religion? I think not.But the thing that satoshi is unknown, like god is kinda similar though lol. Many people value satoshi even knowing who he is, or even if he is really real or not. But no, i don't think bitcoin is like a religion.
This is something in related to this and i dont see the point on why we do consider this to be looking like a religion which is totally in different sense.
We are all believers but doesnt mean it did build a religion but well we do have different impressions but for most then it isnt what it is.

Unlike Religion which encourages you to believe without questioning, bitcoin has goot lots of explaining and reasoning as to what and why something ought to be that way, the courses to it and the outcome expected of some series of activities.
Though, its very common between bitcoin or crypto enthusiast to have a common sense of reasoning behind the bitcoin revolution compared with the beginners in the crypt fields, the new investors who are constantly selling with the arrival of a bear market as, they often feel this is it. Mean while, those that doesn't support or are not in agreement with the bitcoin revolution seems like those in the dark ages to the new world.
Well, not all are meant to understand and government isn't making it easily appreciated or welcomed either but then, bitcoin is no religion as it seeks no patronage or a promise of a roast or hectic life after.

The community is not worshiping Satoshi nowhere near the way people worship their gods. There are no sacrifices, holidays, rituals or prayers, there's nothing supernatural about Satoshi and Bitcoin. People believe in many things, but it's not enough to make a religion. Some believe that Democrats are better for the US than the Republicans (and vice versa), most believe that having police is better than completely dismantling it as an institution, many believe that stopping to eat meat is going to save the environment. All of these qualify as beliefs, but none are parts of any religion. I think the same goes for Bitcoin. Those of us who are fixed holders of Bitcoin are believers of Bitcoin.
