Cryptocurrencies are great for pumping and dumping. Not much use outside of that. The problem is, you guys ran out of greater fools. Everybody that wants to be in it is already in it. Tether is being watched liked a hawk now, so there's only so much fake money they can throw into cryptocurrencies to get hype going.

It’s pretty mainstream just more people need to get on right I think only 18% of the world is in on it forgot where I read or saw this at.

I’m all in Doge and Shib.

Crypto won’t be used for everyday transactions unless we adopt a crypto like nano coin, most are too slow or fees are too high. Nano solved what bitcoin was trying to do, satoshi’s snack machine problem is possible with Nano.

Jay z invested a few month back into a company called Flowhub, they are a software company that weed dispensaries used for point of sale, taxes, inventory…etc basically run their business.

now here is where it gets interesting, the founder of flowhub was just added to the bored of Nano foundation. If your in Cali you know the dispensary is cash only, this is where nano steps in, because it’s an instant feeless crypto, you can actually use it in everyday life.it solves a real world problem. Why pay visa a percentage of a transaction when you can use nano for free and immediately convert to whatever currency you want?

right now folk are just looking at it as an investment, once it is time for true adoption you see coins with functionality that makes life better than a card will take over Bitcoin will need to change for crypto to be adopted or a coin like Nano will need to take its place. The goal would be to never convert it, if it makes sense for everyone it will be used. If you want to buy a house you will just buy it a feeless option will start to shine in businesses that deal in large volumes 1-3% adds up when you are moving billions.

If you believe in crypto think honestly about how it will make vendors and customers life better, not about what is going to x1000 and you will see it’s all Bs or you will find the coins that will x1000 in 5-10 years once true adoption happens.


Personally it’s a lot of variables I could see it dying or taking off, a lot of scammers in crypto but a lot of up side as well. If if goes mainstream you shouldn’t need to convert.

As an investment it already is, as a currency probably not.

The US and other country's will come out with their own digital currency before they let an unregulated, unsecured currency become the dominant currency.

True, :mjgrin: but I fathom Bitcoin and the others wasn't meant to be a dominant currency but a digital one running alongside fiat currency that isn't manipulated or controlled...:manny: and yes I know what happens now in the market :comeon: but the point still stands the u.s. failed to create their own when Bitcoin came out and thought it was a fad. :umad: sucks for them... They late to the party

The house unfortunately always wins.

Sometimes you just have to become the house.

Satoshi Nakamoto created Bitcoin to bring financial power to the masses as a replacement to the traditional financial system.
