There are Bitcoin holders who are holding Bitcoin for years with tons of patience. How is it different than holding BFG for example that pays you interest as well?
The difference is that when you hold bitcoin today, you are sure that years to come, you will wake and still meet your bitcoin in whatever value it might be. But this cannot be said about casino tokens which may not be here by tomorrow. That is the great difference between holding BFG and holding bitcoin.
No one knows what can happen in the future. Btc have gone a long way already but we don't know if the same thing can happen again or not. I am not discouraging the btc users here but better if we are aware of every possibilities. If you sleep for a long years and then wake up to see your btc.
Your btc might still be there but the question is if it's still valuable? We don't know, what if it gets delisted someday because some new super currencies are taking over. The same thing can be applied to those casino tokens. Taking a proper care with our keys should also be practiced if we are investing for a long year so that we are sure that we can still open our wallets.
It is true that bitcoin has lasted long already and no one can accurately predict the future . You asked what if bitcoin is delisted someday. It is possible but even if it will happen, there will be enough wave and turbulence in the whole industry to the understanding of everyone.
In a community, if the King dies, every member of the community will be aware and there would be massive mourning. But if an ordinary citizen dies no many people will be aware. If bitcoin is to die, it will not die like some coins which will die immediately the developer team shut their computer.
It is that the chances of Bitcoin dying are very low, I would say that they are very scarce, but everything in this life is possible, so it cannot be said that it is impossible, but if we put it in the way that Bitcoin sustains many economies, so much so that I dare to say that a large part of a country like El Salvador also depends on the movements of Bitcoin, and that its president has gone through terrible times, has been heavily criticized, that is something that we could say that at this time It is happening, but by the time Bitcoin takes a bullish trend, with probably a new ATH, then Bukele will be a genius, so for now and for a long time it is unlikely that bitcoin will die.
The difference is that when you hold bitcoin today, you are sure that years to come, you will wake and still meet your bitcoin in whatever value it might be. But this cannot be said about casino tokens which may not be here by tomorrow. That is the great difference between holding BFG and holding bitcoin.
Correct, but Bitcoin doesn't pay you interest unless if you use a 3rd party and then you rely on that 3rd party, and still the interest won't be high - and here tokens like BFG pay you over 50% annually (as of now) which is quite massive.
Over time it's hard to tell, but if you pull out on time you can make nice gains.
With Bitcoin no one knows if 5-10 years from now it would be worth $20k or $100k, you can bet on it but there are no guarantees it would happen. Look at Litecoin, used to be $250 and more and now it's 5 times less than that.
It is as they say, I bought the BFG tokens because they produce many benefits for me, but I also have something in mind, if Bitcoin is not sold and we have it, it is not something that can generate other cryptocurrencies, but what Bitcoin generates is something much more ambitious , it is more money, because the more time bitcoin passes, the more it will be valued, for me this is something that will not change and will have more impact, that is why the Hodl is so much touted, for me the BFG is a token that has a lot future, but I don't know how its performance will be in the long term, I don't know if it will die or stay, for me it is uncertain, which cannot be compared with bitcoin that everything will be better for those who have it.
compare bitcoin and gambling token it can not. because they have very different functions.
bitcoin is no doubt almost some investors in various countries believe bitcoin as a promising long-term asset. but we can't compare it with BFG tokens or other gambling tokens.
we don't know what will happen to the BFG gambling token but if the BFG gambling company continues to develop its project maybe in the future the token will also have a valuable value in the gambling token.
A token is a token, tokens, altcoins will always fall into the same category for me, because Bitcoin has its own life, so this is something that represents the entire crypto world, there are many things when we are newbies, ideally It is that you start knowing bitcoin and as a second option any other crypto, because sometimes it happens like it happened to me, I entered a project of a currency where they said it would be 'bigger than BTC itself, so this type of project has this type of peculiarities, and knowledge usually comes late, if it is not because one begins to read, to investigate to know something about the charts, anyone at this time can think that any token or coin will be bigger than BTC and that is a conceptual error, since the King is Bitcoin.
If we put the following scenario into context: If we have that Bitcoin rose to $100k, those who had BTC would automatically be millionaires, but those who have had BFG, OWL tokens, how much do you think they will do 1x, 2x, or Xx? because if this is what any investor expects when they make purchases of Tokens, none wait for it to rise and see it high, investors know that if the price rises they will make some withdrawals in profits, if this is so, how much do they think that can you climb? taking into account all the events of each casino, of everything they have had to do to keep their native tokens.
