CAUTION!! Many scammers are using the comment section to promote their scams and sometimes even use the name “99Bitcoins” in their profile. Never send money to someone you don’t know and don’t accept offers to trade or exchange cryptocurrency from strangers. Stay safe 🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻

Bitcoin is exciting because it shows how cheap it can be. Bitcoin is better than currency in that you don’t have to be physically in the same place and, of course, for large transactions, currency can get pretty inconvenient.”

Very well presented. Clarifies a lot. The resistance to this tech is due to 2 factors: 1) Uncertainty or Security fears, as there's no proven history 2) Lack of awareness. This is exactly how huge corporates reacted when Cloud computing started. Now Cloud is everywhere. Such tech is always 'blocked' before it gets accepted by all. 😄👍
