I know that bitcoin and internet this two thing works together but they are very different from each other,  I don't think we should try to find similarities between them, bitcoin require internet connection to access it's activities but that doesn't mean they are work policy or protocols are same

the argument isn't held properly , you are comparing two different things (apple and orange ) . the two doesn't qualify for a comparison as they aren't equal . Actually , one (bitcoin) is relying on the other one (internet) to even exist .
internet is like the core of everything now and we are just adding stuff onto it .

One thing is sure now we cant live without internet and the bitcoins / crypto. Grin
You don't know what you can't live without until you try. People are depending more and more on technology, forgetting that in the 60s their parents had a TV and a radio and that was it. No mobile phones, no cable tv, no Internet, no computers, and they were totally fine. If we lost the Internet it would be a shock, but we'd go manage, like an alcoholic manages without a drink. It's tough but it's doable.

It’s tough to compare between these. I thing these two all totally different topics. But bitcoin depends on internet because it’s a cryptocurrency and depend on online world.

Let's look like this. The Internet is a stream of data that is transferred between devices. No matter how. A certain packet of data of a certain size is transmitted over the network. And bitcoin is pure mathematics. How could they even be tied together? The Internet without bitcoin will live forever, but bitcoin without the Internet will die immediately. You've made a very silly comparison.

Internet is not bitcoin! Why? because in terms of function, usefulness, and purpose are very different. The internet only becomes an intermediary for running bitcoin, not that bitcoin is the internet. Just like you use shoes with socks, They serve to protect the feet, But have a different purpose.

Blockchain technology and industry have made great progress since 2009. Bitcoin and Ethereum have brought about innovative ideas and concepts such as“decentralized currency” and“smart contracts” into the world of blockchain technology. The potential blockchain and cryptocurrency have allowed society to be autonomous and secured. However, performance inefficiency, poor scalability and high technical threshold have limited blockchain technology to only be applied in cryptocurrency trading and exchange. Although many underlying blockchain communities have made tremendous contribution to optimize the technology, blockchain has not yet to be adopted by the mass market like Internet because of the lack of commercial support and weak connection with market. The potential huge market
value of blockchain industry has not been fully recognized

Other than being decentralized I don't really find any similarities between internet and bitcoin. Both of them are used for different purposes and internet is definitely much more vast in nature compared to Bitcoin. Bitcoin is just a drop of a ocean called internet. That is my opinion though.

Bitcoins and internet has the only similarity of advanced technology use. Both of them are used for completely different reasons and internet is definitely more vast in nature compared to Bitcoin. Bitcoin is a part of digitalization whereas, interne is the digitalization.

I think the nature of the internet and bitcoin is the same.

Kelly compared Bitcoin to the early Internet companies of Cisco and Microsoft, considering the similarities between Bitcoin and Cisco's routers and Internet protocols. However, Kelly emphasized that it is not right to think of Bitcoin as a company or a stock:
      "This is an open source software, you can not think of it as a company, and people make a mistake about it. This is not a stock, it's not a company."

Bitcoin relies in internet so theres no reason for comparison about the two,and even how long bitcoin would go.still this will die without the internet

Then nothing to he in compare,and about the longer this cryptocurrency can stand its the internet to decide

Yes, the internet and bitcoin have similar properties, as decentralized technologies with no single point of failure. The internet was actually invented by DARPA in case of a nuclear war to keep communications lines active. Bitcoin similarly is distributed and uses cryptgraphy developed by the U.S. government.

The two of these are very different. We don't need to compare it. But for me, you can earn bitcoin thru internet because crypto currency requires an internet connection to perform better. The combination of these gives us to earn money.

No internet then no bitcoin. This is a one sided view which it's already know for everyone that internet is the most important. There is nothing to argue here at all.

I really don't get your point in doing this thread but if you are comparing the two there are lot of similarities but the two had very different uses, Yes we know that bitcoin needs internet to run, And the vast majority of it was the world wide web and we can see a lot of vast information regarding it, We can say that the internet had made itself with the development of electronic computers in the 1950s and had many information you can find in it and almost all on the people around the world are using right now, For common folks that didn't live in the late 90's it is now very difficult for them without the internet because they sure rely on it almost always, And as bitcoin progresses right now it sure need internet to run on it and we can see a majority of useful thing running on the World Wide Web, So we can say that without the internet there are no Bitcoin that can ever be made.
yes your opinion but bitcoin can not be called an asset right? if the asset is real and published form can be accepted by the public. jia bitcoin we want to publish in what way to be accepted by various circles and countries, while yesterday bill gates strongly rejects about bitcoin. what we must do so that all people in the world will accept anything about bitcoin (cryptocurrency) and participate in order to develop the bitcoin (cryptocurrency) on our beloved earth?

I think Bitcoin is not the Internet, I think Bitcoin is part of the Internet which is a merger between the public trust about bitcoin is money and the internet itself is intangible, but it can be used
but in fact that bitcoin can not be used if there is no internet. I think that bitcoin really needs internet. even if there is no internet then bitcoin will die
Bitcoin requires an internet connection to access the site for use, without internet Bitcoin can not be used and can not work to visit websites related to cryptocurrency.

Without the prescence of interenet bitcoin is useless mate, many transactions will be failing specially the mining operations which carries or handles bitcoin processing. Internet is mainly the life of bitcoin, just like with human beings its by blood that works the body to get life. So Internet serves as the blood of bitcoin that strongly supports its life on the web networks.
