BTC clearly subverted when they refused (the very mild) Segwit2X compromise. Always remember - 1MB blocks can only sustain around seven transactions per second. You were fucked out of a replacement for fiat and sold a store-of-value ponzi instead.
Why does transactions per second matter? I've never had any problems with with bitcoin, it's shitloads faster than anything else aside from random shitcoins with high transaction speed from sacrificing more important things. Compared to the old system like bankwires and cards bitcoin wipes the floor with them. A few minutes to an hour vs days upon days. 1mb blocks are perfect and I would fight against anyone trying to change it. Why make a good system shitty on purpose?

just to add i recently sent a wire for 40k$, i needed to fill 2 pages of information and paid like 150$ in fees, took days to transfer. Luckily im out of almost all fiat except what I need for about a year of expenses
>buy gold, it's shitter than BTC in every respect!
lmao
Landon Lopez
I think it was derisive, but worded poorly as op has poor writing skills. He is implying only newfags and retards buy gold
Blake Howard
No i wasn't
Luke Wilson
Oh, ok So you were lying and trying to cause people harm then. Just know there's a special place in hell for your kind.

>bankwires Every fucking time these idiots talk about fucking bankwires as if bankwires are anything at all like a digital cash system. It's all just cope because they're in a fucking scam that does literally nothing of value because there is no ability to facilitate trade with it at scale. Bitcoin is a fucking joke. It had its chance to be money, failed miserably and will NEVER recover. The damage is fucking done.
Ian Martinez
except btc isn't real
cryptoniggers are invested since so long in their talmudic ponzi scam they completely lost touch with reality, pretty pathetic desu
Paypal is instantaneous, bank transactions are too if i cross a mark which costs me 50ct To make bitcoin useable you'd need a paypal like 3rd party service
You basically w

The absolute state of Bitcoin in 2020.
Daniel Turner
i'll take store of value anytime going to $100k then $1 million
fuck using a currency plenty of other shitcoins to use for transfer of payment.

Tell me how to buy bread with bitcoin if i have to wait for hours just for the baker to receive a transaction How could it possibly replace fiat? It works as drugmoney because the ammount of drugs ordered are a fraction of the total purchases worldwide

yeah, send the amount of 40k$ in btc from A to B until it arives in 20 minutes, the value is only 30k$ worth it absolute stable and useable
Luis Price
ever used a card newfag? whens the last time you traded gold for bread?
im boomer enough to remember faggots like you claiming "hurr durr plastik isnt monys"

>wait for hours just for the baker to receive a transaction It's so fucking awful now when it use to be practically instant. I'm so sorry you never got to experience it.

This thread is one giant buy signal. Literally everyone in this thread is missing the forest for the trees, like most people.
>Always remember - 1MB blocks can only sustain around seven transactions per second. 1MB blocks prevented DoS attacks just as Hal Finney predicted. You have no idea what you were talking about stfu.
Gold will have a bull run too, it will just be nothing compared to BTC's gains
James Gonzalez
You are the boomer here Bitcoin with hours or days of transaction time would be like a check, the most booomer way to pay ever Instant transaction is clearly king in a world as fast as ours Just think about wanting to buy some stocks and then having to wait a day for the stock exchange to accept your deposit It can, exactly like PayPal Instant transaction bitcoin would be wonderful i guess Maybe with a function to shorten public keys into something more memorable
Lincoln Moore
Neither are instant and both are easily used in scams. Bitcoin is faster, impossible to scam with, and scales just fine. What is with the weak bitch arguments lately? Next people will act like bitcoin starting with the letter b is problematic and why it has failed. At least try to come up with a real reason. Like it's difficult to use with an iq below room temperature, or that it's too easy to get ctrl v and ctrl c mixed up so it takes a few minutes to get the address copy and pasted right.
Carter Thompson
Both systems are based on a trusted third party and work in daily life for the enduser >The paypal scammers are mostly buyers claiming never to got orders in case of paypal, in that case the seller sits on the cost >not a single order i payed for with paypal was a scam >my ec card takes some time and can be locked if stolen, in that case possible retailers sit on the cost >only legit scamway is to scan the card + the code with a fake automaton, but only limited ammount of money on that account >dunno about credit cards, think they are scam anyways Copy and pasting an adress from the store cashier system? I dont want to use nfc with others peoples devices, boomers would NEVER use it, every cashier would basically need to be refitted for QR scans

2 BTC, 2 oz gold, 60 oz silver. Literally unbeatable. Fuck off OP

Paying fees prevents DDoS attacks. It's a primary feature of Bitcoin. If you attempt to "spam" Bitcoin you literally just make it stronger.

Crypto is a network of networks. If you want to buy a house, use bitcoin. If you want smaller payments, use something like litecoin or another more localized alternative. Most chains support atomic swaps these days anyway.
Caleb Mitchell
I buy gold, not bitcoin, for three reasons.
1) Bitcoin is too volatile to be a store of value. It pumps and dumps regularly between $3000 and $10,000 without making lasting gains. It has done this for three years now. The fact that Bitcoin dropped 60% when the stock market crashed shows that it is full of speculators and gamblers, not people who seriously believe in it. Gold didn't drop like that. It showed strength when everything else fell.
2) The BCH people, as you say, are at war with the BTC people, saying that BTC is a technologically primitive scam. They are probably right. The BTC people say similarly injurious things of BCH. They are probably wrong. BCH, ridiculously enough, has its own hard fork in the form of Bitcoin SV. Even Monero is said to have serious problems, like perpetual inflation, inevitable government crackdowns and high fees. The whole crypto-space is in absolute chaos.
I have a little bit of money in Bitcoin just so that I can sell it after the inevitable pump, but my real crypto hedge is in Monero and Bitcoin Cash. If crypto does actually succeed then it will be one of those two coins, not Bitcoin. However, even their success is not a sure thing.
3) Gold has intrinsic advantages over crypto. For example, somebody can torture you for your crypto keys, but nobody can torture you for your gold bars held in a Swiss vault. Again, if I send a transaction on GoldMoney by mistake, I can have it reversed, but if you make a mistake in crypto you are completely finished. You can also do real things with gold, like make jewellery, or use it for important industrial purposes; and it has 5000 years of history behind it.
>Bitcoin Cash. Shifting protocol with small blocks.

Bitcoin is proven to break down and have enormous transaction fees once it gets even to £20,000 a coin. It does not fulfil Satoshi Nakamoto's original vision for cryptocurrency, that the poorest person can be his own central bank, and make transactions instantly and virtually free of charge. It has been compromised. Bitcoin has become a moonboy cult, and you get censored if you criticize it even in the slightest degree.
