Of course, everyone has considerations before entering the world of bitcoin, whether this can be profitable or it will make us suffer big losses.of course we will think about this carefully.so that we are not mistaken in choosing a business for us to be in for a long time and how performance of the crypto world investment process

It is better when deciding to enter the crypto world, we must do research first, so that we can make sure that the decisions we make are right.
So when we have problems when investing in Bitcoin, we don't panic easily, because we already understand the risks we will bear. People who are
always careful in making decisions must think knowledge is very important. So I believe people who have knowledge, it will definitely be easier to
make a profit when investing in Bitcoin. Because they have already learned about Bitcoin, before deciding to invest in Bitcoin.

I know most of you are here for fiat gains, but I am not

The real reason I got into bitcoin was I thought it was anti central banker. You know the problem of people printing unlimited supply out of thin air, backed by nothing and extorting me with it for my limited time, goods and services. It is like I am playing a game of monopoly in real life where instead of all the players starting with the same amount of cash, a few start with all of it and in unlimited amounts. To be honest this is kind of a b.s. game. So for 10 years now I have refused to sell my fruits for fiat and I plan to continue until we have a equally distributed to all participants upon creation money supply. A supply we all create at the same rate.

1 hour coin an hour.
1 sectoshi a second

Now I was a die hard bitcoin fan, still am a little, but the more I thought about the end game of bitcoin the less I became a fan. Like eventually bitcoin will be 100% premine to kids born in 2142, why don`t they get a chance to mine rewards? how is that fair to them? or how it is inevitable that circulating supply will go to 0 due to dust, bugs, lost passwords, breaking hardware, death. That does not really seem great for humanity in the future. It also leads to mass murder and robbery and eventually miner wars.

Here is the start of bitcoin
Notice how the players are just going to the middle to mine and go back to there base peaceful

Here is the end of bitcoin
Notice how the players are killing each other and some coded AI and robots to steal all the jobs so the people must kill other players to obtain supply.

I mean who can buy all the miners?
who can buy all the coins?
the central bankers, like the FED.

"Bitcoin is as b.s. as fiat" -Elon Musk

To be honest if I was you satoshi, I would cash out and create a fairly distributed supply. Know duration or time is a blockchain. You memories prove this blockchain exist. Everything is timestamped in time forever, including your thoughts.

Act accordingly. For we are all on a p2p network in eternity and there is no anonymity in timelessness. All is known, instantly.

I got into Bitcoin when I realized my government had nothing to offer to its citizens anymore. And I needed job, so the only hope I could possibly think of is making money through the Internet and in a legit way, maybe doing a freelancing job or building my personality of becoming an influencer on the Twitter or IG social platform. But instead, my attention goes directly into investing on Bitcoin and every other coins I could possibly think of at the moment after getting recommendations from a friend.

Thanks to him though

1st a quick background: for years i had donated my CPU/GPU computing time to free, worthy (in my eyes) causes like SETI and Folding@Home. so i was used to building and running computers for compute intensive projects. running multi gpu setups was second nature at that point. for free.

so in 2011 so when i found bitcoin and actually had the possibility of paying for electricity and the GPUs (long shot but hey if it didnt it didnt) i jumped in. read the white paper but at that time most of it was beyond me.. but i did grok enough to understand this could be a game changer. so after a bit of testing on my existing setups (old folding cards that were at the end of their usefulness as far as PPD was concerned) i jumped in and bought a HD6870 for mining. later i added some HD5830s.

btc crashed from $35 to 2 during my 1st year (2011-2012) but i didnt really care much as i never made money at folding or SETI, just the warm fuzzies. but at that point the folding community started going downhill with infighting and such. so mining btc it was.. mined at a loss for part of a year or two but again, didnt care i was the project that was important, especially once i started understanding the white paper.

I do not believe in karma, I am more incline to think that the things you get into expose you to possibilities. I got into the internet early and that exposed me to the possibility of earnings while studying... and it was not that far the chance of getting into a start-up when these did not even have a name. I also learnt about cryptography and became a self taught (average) programmer which allowed me to get an scholarship. Bitcoin would have been a natural path for me, yet by that time, all I could read was adds and stupid comments about it... too bad for me

My original reason for joining bitcoin is to earn money to have a fuller life, can buy a house, buy a car but my capital is not enough to do that, I want to use my money to invest or what can be profitable and fortunately i know bitcoin through friends, after a while i feel bitcoin market is very good to invest and i started to invest, now i have made a lot of money from this investment.

Geez, that sounds like the list of reasons anyone would have said when they got into an MLM on Ponzi. No offence, but I guess I know why people are complaining on reddit or forums when they say people look at them funny when they talk about why/how they got into Bitcoin:)

Nothing wrong with that of course, I also have similar dreams. But that's not really how I got into it. I wanted to gamble;)

I have a habit after receiving a reward from a bounty, I will set aside a little of what I earn to put into BTC. and after a few years, I got ATH yesterday. this is very fun even though it does take quite a long time.

the main reason is of course because bitcoin has a very lively trade. for that looking for profits in daily trading is very easy. for those big capital holders, I believe bitcoin day trading is more profitable than long-term hold.

The main reason I opted in using Bitcoin is when I learnt how secured and safe it is as there is insecurity in my country. People gets robbed day and night for carrying fiat currency about or even forced you to to transact money from your banks to their respective bank.

So since I started using Bitcoin, I carry less cash on me and divorce the use of using of using mobile banking as I always keep my account balance at reading zero balance.

The reason why I got into bitcoin is to earn money through trading and investing on this digital currency and I believe all people here have the same reason as me. I don't believe that you just strolling around in crypto space and just watch bitcoins value and demand keep on increasing. People always needs money and bitcoin is one of their way to have it.

To be honest, the real reason why I got into bitcoin is because of my friends who introduced me what bitcoin is and what bitcoin is all about. But initially the main reason why I wanted to enter in this environment is because of money and most of us is because of this reason. One of the main problem of the people is money and they are seeking for an environment in which they will be able to earn money. And that's the real reason why people are getting into bitcoin or cryptocurrency.

Yes very clearly , not only you . I believe everyone and almost everything the reason they go into bitcoin is money. After that the second reason like me is the freedom of time. Since I got to know bitcoin, I can be closer to my family, I can accompany my wife and children every day. Maybe if at this time I was not familiar with bitcoin, I still worked in an office that every day had to get up early and often came home late at night. There was no time for family.

The reason you seem attractive, some people come here just looking for profit, then go by selling bitcoin and get more fiat, but you prefer cryptocurrency because it is anti central bank, what do you think with the central bank? does it look worse than cryptocurrency?

It's a natural thing that many people want, we humans really want to make good and big profits so Bitcoin is one alternative to produce it. If Bitcoin is just a place to store it, Maybe that person is wrong.

The reason why i got into bitcoin is because of saving and investing. Opportunity to earn money as a side hustle.

it's true as you said, our main goal in entering the world of bitcoin is to save and invest, actually the main purpose of entering bitcoin is to invest in the long term, bitcoin brings new challenges for us, bitcoin can also take us to the top, and can bring us down. we go down..

Honestly, I didn't get in because I was an anti-banker, or a lover of freedom or whatever. I do respect the ideals, and I know a lot of others quietly working their asses off for Bitcoin because they believe in something, and I can't say enough how much I admire them.

My own entry was a mix of circumstance and chance. A period in bed with nothing to do but read and ultimately, a need to find an alternative to PayPal which was my main means of receiving freelance income.

Final word. Things have changed. And we are NOT Satoshi so we should really move on from postulating on what he should and should not do.

this may be a very interesting topic to discuss.why do we get into bitcoin, because crypto currencies are like real currencies and we can do buying and selling transactions.because this is also a valuable asset to be a business or investment, what's more, in the past few weeks bitcoin experienced a significant price decline.which is an advantage if we buy as much as possible and sell it in the future. And what if the price still doesn't match what we expected, we can also save it in the time we want right.

This is very very pessimistic, the future depends on the steps we take. each of us have a say, can create & implement things. We can create new ways of governance. We can look out for the kids of the year 2142 but taking necessary action now.

Further more, I believe with how quick technology is advancing that between now and then new generations will find new ways to create systems and new models of hierarchy. The future could be a utopia if those who are conscious and aware of how their actions affect others, little lone the future of the world so long as we all don't become complacient after selfish needs of the lambo go to the moon culture.

Don't forget about the 2nd, 3rd, 4th layers to bitcoin. Universal Basic Income could be a result of crypto development. AI is unavoidable and doesn't mean it will turn the population of humans to dust of bones and flesh. When people are given more time they can work on bigger issues.

Stack your sats, create generational wealth teach your kids, nephews and nieces solid values and pass it down to them when your ready to go back to your true self, omni present and omni potent consciousness.

Based on your story,it seems you don't have clear knowledge about bitcoin but found how these Central banks keeps the people poorer over years.

Bitcoin is not under control of anyone which means decentralized and miners are helping them to confirm transaction while get their mining block rewards along with transaction fee so in 2140 the last bitcoin will be mined it doesn't mean the miners will stoo getting their rewards, they will still make money from the transaction fee and it will be distributed.
