Hey
How about we talk about the reason that we need cryptocurrencies, day in and day out banks and governments never fail to show us the dark side , how about we light a candle on it, let's keep adding points whatever you think what makes It amazing , what makes it worthwhile to exist.
In my view , we are finally free and out of the Monopoly world , banks governments no matter democratic or not we are all controlled like puppets , our money is actually not our money , it's the money of the banks controlled by the rich people that we would never see faces of.
With cryptocurrencies we control our own deal , we can easily make it to the top , yes it does have negative times and is risky but let's be honest , who doesn't ? Even dollar was going down !
But it also gives rewards like no other.
I feel good that my savings are not on a bank account. However, even though I recognize Bitcoin as money, I have to sell my BTC for fiat from time to time to be able to actually use it. Another problem appears when I move to a different country. When I need a visa, I have to show that I have savings to sustain my life there. The savings in BTC don't count, they must be on a bank account... And I would not actually mind paying reasonable taxes for profits in BTC, but in my country, the regulations are not well-developed yet, and paying taxes is a difficult bureaucratic procedure, that totally does not encourage to do that.
