cryptocurrencies are a REVOLUTION!!
not just a cult.

Well to be honest I have been reading some articles about this kind of topics and some many people have considered it against religion to invest in Bitcoin. The technology is considered as illegal in the religion. But I think this is the need of the day and as long as it does not harm some one, it is not a bad thing. It is rather letting people earn and has given financial freedom.

I do not think this is a cult but it leads to worship. It attracts you with the promise of wealth, keeping you captivated with numbers and different types of coins. I admit that some people may be very fanatical about cryptocurrancy but this is completely different from the fanatic worship. Zealots are more dependent on mental control.

Is this becoming a religious experience for some?

cult won’t let us gain profit. Blockchain is no doubt a trend technology, nobody can reject the technology revolution. And nobody would support cult keeping burning their money

For some people consider bitcoin as haram , some people call bitcoin is a cult.
Every people have their own judgement based on their religion view although it's completely different thing but of course we can judge them wrong either.
As long as people still support bitcoin, I think it not a problem at all !

As for me it is a very incorrect comparison. Crypto currency and blockchain are very important phenomenons for people, which will change the life of the humanity in a few years. But this is not the reason to treat cryptocurrency as an idol and worship it.

It's literally the opposite of a cult. Cryptography is based on MATH. You can't have belief in math, it's just freaking math, how it is a cult?

Bitcoin is backed by cryptography, math, hashrate, nodes, this creates what you would call a belief in the system, but this belief is fundamented in very tangible things (contrary to what most idiots would argue about Bitcoin not being tangible).

You cannot simply draw a parallel of religious cult with a technology.

what? You are not kidding. How can a password be a cult? The downside of the password is the use of cults, not the password itself is a cult.

I don't how people comes up with this kind of stupid questions. Really? A cult? Not sure by "cult" whether you mean the literal meaning of cult or more like the loose meaning of cult (trend among a particular group of people). And whats weird is that people are answering to this thread and also commenting on the video link you have posted. Whats more weird is no one recognizes who he is :/.

Is the use of mobile phone,whatsapp or facebook a cult? I wonder why people develop strage concept on cryptocurrency and assume all wild things about it. Crypto is not cult, the fact that only few people have that superior knowledge never make it one.

I dont know if this is a serious thing or just pure troll.

How would a cryptocurrency or simply involve on money would already comes to a point where it do correlates with religion? How bullshit this kind on how to correlate things to each other.
Money or digital currency has nothing to do with religion or cult because they are entirely different.

Btw, i didnt watch the link above because it do pissed me of. Cool

CULT and payment system that is have far different.

What kind of FUD is this?

Believe in what you understand about cryptocurrency, about other people who spread negative issues let them alone.

This is not a cult...Some governments declare that they support crypto-currencies, while others are ready to defend their national system from its invasion!

It depends on the individual's perception. If the investor depends solely on hope and faith, it could be considered as a cult. However, if an investor thinks of crypto currency as an advancement in technology which shapes utilization of many things in the real world, then it is not considered a cult.

It is definetely not but it is very similar to a religion in some aspects and that's really not good thing for investors, we should sell every crypto including btc at the right time then we can buy again

No it is not a cult. It's simply a new currency using new technology that people have really bought in to. If it were a cult of some sort, there would be someone on top telling us everything we need to do and we would probably be paying membership dues every week. Plus, there would be some kool-aid ready for us to drink when the space ship shows up to come and take us home. Don't drink that kool-aid just yet

I also agree with you that crypto is not a cult or religious affair and there is nobody controlling what is happening in crypto.

Really? That's what you're thinking right now? What's next crypto has been controlled by the Rothschild and Banks? Well due to a down market which ofcourse a lot of participation of manipulation by the whales that's what they want to happen we think like that like the end of crypto is near and if you let that happen to yourself you accepted that you already lose here.

It is crazy to say that it is a religion. Do you understand what a religion is? Cryptocurrency is simply a boom in technology and the profitability of investing in it, which is the attraction.

Is this not an advancement of technology? I can't see anything cult in nature in making money digital. Some people always have a negative version in suspicion to a positive action. In old times primitives opposed the appearance of money coins because they are used to barter. In similar way that is what happening right now.

Yes, it is)) Why so? cos' it might help you earn money. I see this situation in this way, now there are a lot of projects, and all of them are aimed at improving services, it's cool, but it seems to me that everyone has forgotten about the security of our data, but the block is well protected, but now. I read an article about quantum processors, they are already talking about the possibility of hacking, and what will happen after they become public, and the technology will improve. I began to look, and found an interesting project that is immediately ready to solve the problem of not only quantum protection, but also improve the speed of the entire system as a whole. Kelvin Blockchain is very flexible and adaptive, which makes it a perfect choice for implementation of the new blockchain projects and platforms.
