Every fiat is based on trust and belief. Bitcoin is trustless hard money. Very different things.

I view Bitcoin as a universal currency and tokens as currency specific to organizations offering a specialized software.
Decentralization to me means that you can build a platform separate of any larger entity, and the value of said platform fluctuates with the token and not the stock market. This makes a corporation personal to individuals rather than investors.
This is my perspective, and If I’m in the ballpark then feel free to expand on it.

Nobody is using crypto as a currency. It’s a unregulated stock market where you buy low and sell high. It has no value beyond trading

@Perceived Velocity My comment was on what I perceived it’s original purpose to be.
Edit: although I started it with “I view” which doesn’t send that message.
If I ever start a company, I’m going to create a token in the hopes that the value of my business fluctuates with that token. It will be an experiment so I’m probably going to start a second company that’s either private or publicly traded in the hopes that I can then fund the growth of my token operated company (ignore my lack of proper terminology; I’m nowhere near ready to do any of this).

@Perceived Velocity this is factually wrong. There are many DAOs, for example, governed by weighted votes based on locking a token or tokens which are intentionally geared toward not being traded, and such DAOs have various physical world purposes. This is just one example which extends far beyond an emulation of stock trading.

The wisest thing that should be on everyone mind currently should be to invest in different streams of income that doesn’t depend on the govt. Especially with the current economic crisis around the world. This is still a good time to invest in Gold, silver and digital currencies(BTC, ETH..).

Right out of the gate misrepresenting the basics. The function of crypto is ABSOLUTELY as Fintech, the same old process and scams with a thin veneer of “new tech” to try and sidestep legal protections.
Crypto as “more real time” is an insanely laughable take.

You need to separate crypto from Bitcoin. Bitcoin is open source, is totally decentralized, is owned by the community, is capped and has the only trustworthy monetary policy.

Sorry, not worth the time. In an hour you could load a VPN service, a decentralized wallet, learn a fiat currency on-ramp and bridge funds for transaction fees (gas) to any number of affordable blockchains (Fantom, Avalanche, Dogechain, Polygon, etc…) and begin using dApps to experientially learn what “crypto” really is, while engaging protocols via their resources on gitbook, Medium, Twitter, Telegram and Discord.

Why is fin tech bad, just because it’s old?
I need my money to be well integrated in my life, fast, cheap and secure.
Also I want consumer protection, as banking is a commodity I don’t want to think about.
How is crypto improving that?

I’d say that more emphasis should be put into day trading as it less affected by the unpredictable nature of the market. I made 5BTC from day trading with swissarex. They are step ahead of other analysis. More info on ig.

Is crypto essentially a digital medium of exchange whereby, at the end of the day, I could exchange it for traditional money or use it to purchase goods & services? I’m trying to grasp its appeal.
Mr Benana
December 11, 2022 at 3:40 am
Yes, it is finding uses in transfering value across international borders skipping the fees and long wait times of the SWYFT system. But outside of that and with no real legislation it hasn’t got much use case at the moment.

Short answer, yes. But it’s technology shares basically. Investing in certain technologies etc, alot are scams though
