Bitcoins are basically just this weird attempt by lolbertarian children to make their own currency and play stock market and dodge taxes.
I can accept your opinion about bitcoin, but i don't think so because bitcoin (in my opinion) is new technology on Internet and becoming new currency. And bitcoin users doesn't pay the taxes because of there are not rules about it , at every countries of bitcoin users.

It is a matter of strategy there are other ways to generate bitcoin other than mining. And mining BTC is not really profitable even if you buy just one expensive mining equipment. Also BTC has been popular because it can do many things that Fiat can't do, it is widely accepted in the internet as it took advantage of it. It's up to you if you really want to quit.
Considering the difficulty, solo mining for bitcoin isn't profitable anymore unless you have a few thousands of USD as capital for a bunch of S9's and for maintenance/utility bills.
It's a shame to just quit on bitcoin without even going further into the ways of attaining them.

There is also a high probability of your equipment not work properly chances are overheating, no proper maintenance and other things that even a handy man can't fix. In order for mining to be profitable you always need to consider all the cost/expenses you will have rather than focusing on how much btc you are having.

Boycotting bitcoins? For mad people, i think the main problems, why people starting  talking bad about  bitcoin is their problems with earnings or something like this.
the main problem is that a lot of people are actually refusing to use bitcoins at the moment and it is really sad, i hope it will change soon

Maybe you are right, that the people who cannot earn it do such things or the ones who hears bad news about it from media or some other source and after that they start having negative thoughts about it and say they are boycotting it.
Also i think the other people are experience of bad thing like scam are one who are boycotting it..  they are not trusting bitcoin because of they are experience of no guarantee and they can do any.

So let me guess. You surely can do net banking these days with your bank and can use your debitcards to withdraw from the ATM's. These use sophisticated technology as well. You can use the same or lesser technology to transact in Bitcoins. There are even services to SMS to send bitcoins. Also Bitcoin has no strong correlation with Race, income brackets of individuals and those who are privileged. Even the poor in Africa can make use of Bitcoins to send/receive remittances from their family working abroad.

not necessarily when the rumors Boycotting it would make the reduction enthusiasts of Bitcoin instead could make more popular because people who do not know will find out about bitcoin and we do not have to worry about it because bitcoin is very strong at the moment.
it will definitely not have a bad impact, there are alot of people who actually hate on bitcoins and it doesnt have any impact

No, I don't think bitcoin was designed to discriminate anyone. It is true that its use requires certain technologies inaccessible for some people, but it's undoubted that this indispensable requirements are more accessible every day and most people is starting to adapt this technological advances to their ordinary lives, as internet connection and smartphones.

It's inherently classist. Only those with access to moderately high levels of technology can spend or receive it. Only those with access to exceedingly high levels of technology can "mine" it. Heterosexual, middle class or higher white males are disproportionally represented in the demographics of bitcoin users. Bitcoin only serves to uphold the current kyriarchal socioeconomic structures by making sure the privileged become more privileged.

And it's a terrible idea. You spend more on your parents' electricity bill and replacing burnt out GPUs that your parents buy for christmas and birthdays than you actually theoretically make.

Bitcoins are basically just this weird attempt by lolbertarian children to make their own currency and play stock market and dodge taxes.

How did you come to such conclusions? Have you studied the Bitcoin, made some queries among people, did some researches or is this just your own prejudice without any real ground?

Boycotting in something does not mean that it is bad for the rest of the people that want to use it.
If I boycotted using Apple products does that mean that everybody is wrong for using it? Roll Eyes

So as a fix I should give my coins to poor gay women? Anyone is free to use bitcoin. In fact no one can even stop you from using them. But since bitcoin is just a math program no one is going to come to your house and show you how. I don't see why bitcoin is unfair in any way. You are rewarded for doing, not wanting or being disenfranchised, only doing something. The people who are privileged in society (and poor) who are becoming wealthier with bitcoin are participating.

It is hard for a person who is tech illiterate. But then again dollars are hard to use if you can't read and I don't think you could even get a credit card if you are illiterate. Again bitcoin is just money. It is not a tool for tax evasion, not a tool to right the social injustice of the world, not an investment vehicle, It's money.
