title: lnxw48a1: At one time, #Daddy_A had a small amount of #BTC ( #Bitcoin ), a small amount of #BCH ( Bitcoin Cash https://bitcoincash.org/ ) and an even smaller amount of #BSV ( Bitcoin Satoshi's Vision https://bitcoinsv.com/ ). I should ask him whether he still has any #cryptocurrency. It sounds like BSV had some good ideas, but I think most of those were already in the pipeline before BSV split from BCH. I'm talking about things like increasing the block size, so that more transactions can be processed in each ten minute interval. BSV currently has a market-determined variable block size and BCH has a 32MB block size. The original BTC still uses 1MB ... which causes contention for fewer slots inside the block, and raises both transaction costs and the average wait time for transactions to process. AFAIK, BSV is the only member of the Bitcoin family to give major attention to smart contracts ... including creating a new scripting language ( "sCrypt":{https://scrypt.io/} ) to make them easier. IMO, "smart contracts" make it easier to create non-financial applications for #blockchains and other ledgers. BSV is also tainted by Craig Wright's claim to be Satoshi Nakamoto, the inventor of Bitcoin. https://www.coindesk.com/layer2/2022/10/21/in-craig-wright-verdict-reality-prevails/

My answer (not available in the chat, because I'm not a member): I don't specifically care about the method (cryptographically signed blocks of transactions, chained together via a consensus algorithm), but I care about breaking people free from the control of banksters and believe that should be a priority for all of us. That is why I care about #Bitcoin, #Ethereum and similar currencies.

No one knows for certain where that point is, but the Fed's operative assumption is based on doubling the money supply in one year during the 2008-2011 recession without any perceptible impact on prices.

title: lnxw48a1: So, it looks like I’m going to have to try out one or more #cryptocurrencies, such as #Bitcoin ( BTC ) or #Ethereum ( #ETH ). But I’m not pretending that I can time the market, so I’m not looking to buy something that will rise high enough to make me a millionaire. I’m looking at them as a medium of exchange, a means to facilitate purchases and sales. At this point, I’m not looking at them as a store of value, and certainly not as an investment. Despite my insistence in conversations with #sonTwo that he should likewise consider cryptocurrency only as a means to purchase things, his father-in-law has been reading about sky-high #BTC prices and is putting up a small amount of money to get started investing in #cryptocurrency.

title: lnxw48a1: One of the big issues I have with #blockchain is that people lost all rationality once they saw the prices that #Bitcoin ( #BTC ) has reached. Suddenly, everything is blockchains when most things are not improved in any way by adding a blockchain. And of course, whenever sleazeballs smell dummies with money, they start rolling out scam after scam using the magic word or phrase that convinces people to open their wallets and bank accounts.

title: lnxw48a1: @perspicacious01 What do you mean when you say #Bitcoin is "secure"? Theft resistance? Tell that to the people whose #BTC was stolen from various #cryptocurrency exchanges. Resistance to manipulation? A few very large mining pools could very well conspire to manipulate it. Somewhere North of 50% of total mining/hashing volume, they could do whatever they wish without anyone being able to resist.

encoded: @perspicacious01 What do you mean when you say #Bitcoin is "secure"? Theft resistance? Tell that to the people whose #BTC was stolen from various #cryptocurrency exchanges. Resistance to manipulation? A few very large mining pools could very well conspire to manipulate it. Somewhere North of 50% of total mining/hashing volume, they could do whatever they wish without anyone being able to resist.

But if #BTC is proven to have any real value, it will have to come from being a medium for transactions, not as a playground for high-stakes gambling.

title: lnxw48a1: "Please invest responsibly — an important message from the Coinbase team" The cryptocurrency exchange #Coinbase sent out a message to their users recently, advising people not to become too heavily invested in #BTC. "We also wanted to remind customers of some of the risks associated with trading digital currency. Digital currencies are volatile and the prices can go up and down. Due to the rapidly changing price of digital currencies, some customers may not have sell limits that are sufficient relative to the value of total digital currency they are storing on Coinbase. Sell limits are one of the many measures Coinbase takes to protect client accounts and assets." I guess they are worried about "irrational exhuberance" behind the current rise in the price of #Bitcoin. !cryptocurrency
