The rest of the world are looking at the example that the USA are giving them and if they start banning Bitcoin, most ignorant smaller countries would not question their actions and just follow their example.  Roll Eyes


It is sad to hear but this is the truth because other countries do not spend time studying Bitcoin so they can create their own regulations but instead they are just following what the US will do. So it's not surprising that if US collapse then other countries will follow.
What example are we talking about here because I have never seen any ban example that the US has laid down, the only thing I heard about the United states last is that trump mentioned some few words against cryptocurrency which is his own opinion, everyone is entitled to their own opinion, and I think that trump is only trying to guard against their USD losing relevance, but they have never openly ban bitcoin.

They have even done more of regulation to me, because we can see how they have asked  binance exchange to open their own exchange that would be dedicated to their citizens and this is for the purpose of being able to control and regulate the activities/ transaction o their US traders in the platform that has been created. There is no country that has even actually placed a ban on bitcoin or cryptocurrency.

I listened to it all. It's a very nice podcast. I liked their positive attitude you can hear they dig it and are ready to defend it against naysayers.

The only way to kill Bitcoin from the outside would be to cut the flow of fiat but for it to happen all countries would have to cooperate and together ban exchanges. They wouldn't have to do anything about mining and crypto - crypto trading. Without the flow of fresh fiat crypto would be dead. Don't worry it will not happen. When was the last time whole world cooperated? Probably in the movies like Independence day and Pacific Rim Cheesy

Some people have their own interpretation of Bitcoin. They see it as a shortcut to getting rich which is unrealistic. Other people also see it as a threat. I guess some country needs to educate about the importance and risks of Bitcoin and cryptocurrency. Also, no one has the capability to kill Bitcoin. It is well-established and has a strong foundation due to the latest technology. It will surely have a stronger foundation in the future.

- Congressman claims the US has no capacity to Kill Bitcoin!


I agree with him. The reason why the US can't kill Bitcoin is that Bitcoin can't be manipulated. It is not fiat money. But Bitcoin is volatilite and the US government do not want to trust in a currency like that.

It can be manipulated but in a different way. To manipulate fiat you need to be the government that's all. When you have this power you can do whatever you want. You can also manipulate fiat through debt. There are countries indebted to other countries and this makes them vulnerable to manipulation.
To manipulate Bitcoin you need money and turn that money to mining power or coins that you buy OTC and then dump on the market.

Bitcoin is a technology that benefited a lot of people and it is hardly killable. The government has been trying to regulate and try to destroy it by spreading only bad news or scam surrounding bitcoin and kept those good news and good benefits it caused to people but look, bitcoin still stand on it's ground and it is getting stronger as the day past.

Well mostly or majority of people joined bitcoin not because it can be used to buy something in the market but rather because they want to gain profit. Without earning and profit people will not be engaging in bitcoin right now and will not waste their time maybe they are now busy engaging in forex. Well fear and greed is really present in trading and that does not exclude bitcoin trading.

I also agree that the US government has no capacity to kill bitcoin since there are already thousands of US citizens that are into cryptocurrency and there are companies that are operating using cryptocurrency. Instead of killing it they would just regulate it since it could help in their economy and increase tax collection.

When more people want to try to kill Bitcoin then it only makes Bitcoin more popular and interesting in the community. How many times have they wanted to hit Bitcoin with a variety of very negative issues but Bitcoin has remained strong. So there is no capacity to kill Bitcoin.

Since the beginning of Bitcoin, Bitcoin has faced many problems. Now and many are seeking to kill Bitcoin. No one was success to kill bitcoin.But now Bitcoin is becoming more and more popular worldwide. New Investors is coming to invest in Bitcoin. So Bitcoin will go a long way in the future. I think nobody has the capacity to kill Bitcoin.

There's one way I know how government might somehow kill, or control bitcoin in such a way. If they would consider buying all available bitcoins they can manipulate its prices or even dump it. But the possibility of a country to spend their funds to bitcoin is impossible. They are assigning budget to different sectors and it needs to be precised. In order to avoid this scenario to happen, it is good for each of us to accumulate bitcoin.
But government spending money on a thing with a goal of destroying or manipulating it will be close to impossible like you said, but somehow if US decided to do that I think that might help us for a while because of the huge demand that will happen and if US government accumulated all bitcoins available in the market or lets say to be real more than half of the market,that would be a double-edged sword to them as they might lose tons of money too
I think that for the US government to lose several billion dollars in the fall in the price of Bitcoin, these are not significant losses or risks. Even if you take into account the US government to buy Bitcoins for 50 billion dollars.

Why not? 50 billion dollars is very huge and is US will do that to stop bitcoins development, they also don't have a way to retrieve what they putted in it. They should've spent it with their projects or improvements on the infrastructures other than destroying bitcoin because there's no way they can possibly do it, holders of huge volume will not let their holdings to be sold in the current amount which the bitcoin have at the moment.

New people discovering bitcoin is good for the market, more demand means higher prices, better trades and future of bitcoin. Bitcoin's day to day price action is inevitable, it's natural since it's decentralized. With that being said, Bitcoin cannot be shut down since it forms a mesh network with every node having a copy of the ledger. In terms of the world denominated by Bitcoin, I don't think it would replace currencies since it's more stable because government has policies to do so, making it more desired means of transactions for small and day to day trades of goods.

Is he supporting Bitcoin that is why he is saying this or he is telling the truth I believe in the last part, the truth is it's impossible to stop Cryptocurrency at the current level, we are moving and rolling fast, The United States will have to spend millions of dollars and a lot of effort to stop Cryptocurrency, the Americans are so involved in Cryptocurrency, and they are very active and so many websites related to Cryptocurrency are located in The United States.

No one can kill Bitcoin, Only the Catastrophic event can sure kill it. (example A meteor hit earth)

True. Bitcoin is way too spread out across the globe. And even if you did terminate the majority of its holders, since bitcoin or rather crypto is not controlled by anyone, the coin would still exist somewhere and would still be able to come back.

This is natural. People are scared of new things and would rather stick to the old ways since they are more experienced with doing that. On the other hand, people who start participating in bitcoin would naturally feel greed with how large its price was in the past and its possibility of repeating that event. Humans are naturally greedy human beings after all.

I wonder what's the point of killing though? You need to have a motive to kill bitcoin isn't it?

We have survived the first ten years and I have no doubt that bitcoin will continue to flourish and that last bitcoin could be mine as well. I'm sure everyone here will not going to see that day, however, I still think that even if we exhausted the last bitcoin, it will still move forward and one day could be the scarcest commodity in the future.

World is started regonizing bitcoin and many investors are coming to invest on the bitcoin and other cryptocurrencies. We all need to invest on the bitcoin and do more payment options with the bitcoin.
It will automatically increase the growth of the bitcoin.
Indeed some people who had discover bitcoin these days are interested about investing onto it but we can't easily say things because maybe they had different things on their minds and it can be good or bad, some of them wants to take advantage of it and some just wanted to earn and get opportunities from it. Bitcoin was accepted and adopted by different countries despite of having some issues about its price. I can't see the reason why many people are thinking how it wouldn't last because bitcoin had some problems before and it was capable of dealing with it.

If you get to conduct a poll regarding this we can get the truth. Most of the users could've entered into the cryptocurrency just because it paves way to earn. Very few have got the perfect understanding about the technology and all the relative factors that are making a huge change. It isn't easy understanding, and until there is a way to earn people won't let it get killed. This suits with each and every innovation.
