So is “quantum healing”.
When it’s only “beautiful” , it’s a scam. It appeals to your taste, not to the logic.
It’s not private.
It’s not secure.
The beauty is in the logic and the rules the volumes it can support. a computer system with an important purpose of verifying transactions. only a programmer can see the beauty of when a system works exactly as it was programmed to.
CZ seems to have a realistic view, he says mass adoption won’t be for another 10 to 20 years, the generation being born now will see BTC as normal it wont be anything new to them.

There’s a sucker born every minute.
They will be left with energy shortages and less stuff they can consume. But they will sill be gambling, and they will fall for scams like always.
Maybe there will be no crypto tho, so it will be more about other scams.
Well, there is a need to make money transfer cheaper. There is just wayyy too much focus on what profit could be made from investing in this.
I was really thinking about functionality, my point was the generation being born now will be used to BTC so they will see nothing abnormal with fiat being transferred to BTC then sent to it’s destination and then transferred back to fiat.
My 2 year old niece can work a smartphone better than I can lol
Also, I don’t think anymore people will be tricked into putting their life savings into buying and holding BTC, current events are actually teaching us a lesson and forcing us to understand what’s going on. Anyone buying BTC now is very clear on what it is and that profit can only be made when billions of genuine BTC users adopt it for retail and transfer purposes and not profit.
Investing in BTC now and expecting profit is like buying a grocery store where there are only 10 customers per year.
It’s not important.
It does not verify anything. It just checks its input consistency. Which any computer with a tcp/ip stack does.

If it can actually save money then it’s important.
It does seem like a logical way for an exchange to transfer money to another country on behalf of a paying customer the exchange is already based in both countries.
Yes, and a consistency check verifies that a transaction is valid.
Any BTC data will always will always use this method to communicate with another node.
Googled;
“Bitcoin uses a simple broadcast network to propagate transactions and blocks. All communications are done over TCP . Bitcoin is fully able to use ports other than 8333 via the -port parameter.”
All TCP does is break down a message so it can be transferred, all computers use this protocol to send/receive so it can’t be compared to BTC as it is essential to the BTC system operating normally, It’s obviously part of the network layer of ANY software/system that needs to communicate to another remote node.
There’s a diagram if you have a look on that page, BTC will always be on the “Application” Layer and will be designed to always use the Transport Layer just like any other application in the world.

No, it verifies that it is a transaction.
Which ANY computer can do
Again, do you even read what I wrote ?
Your answer is again missing the point.
WTF ? I’m not saying it is compared to. Read again.
Do you have mental issues ? Pretending I compare things while I don’t.

Maybe you should stop typing in a silly cryptic way.
In a BTC system, nodes need to verify with each other that a transaction is valid. So, if BTC is sent to me I sometimes have to wait for a certain amount of confirmations before I can change the BTC to fiat. It’s important because someone has paid a small amount of money to do this.
What would be the BTC systems purpose then if it wasn’t to verify transactions?
Now you’re arguing with me because I want to visualise the beautiful inner workings of a networked computer system. chill out man.

Maybe you should stop pretending having knowledge when you clearly have none.
Just like in any TCP-based application a computer verifies that the inputs are valid.
There is nothing specific to BTC here.
Torrent protocol already does that.
You already know.
No. I argue because your arguments are AGAIN completely nonsensical - and you pretend I wrote things I did not, again without even going back on your words when asked for quotes.

This is hilarious. If this is the level of understanding you have about how any of this works I really wonder what makes you think you should give your opinion about Bitcoin. 
Maybe you really should look into what a Bitcoin node actually does before you try to lecture people on it.

You know it’s okay to ask questions if you don’t know what all the fuss is about.
Why can’t you just write out what you are misunderstanding and then people who might know try to explain it to you?

ROFL… Good luck with those stats… No one can define ownership yet they can deduct if an account number is a distinct user? Hahaha…
And then…
The pattern is that to convince people here you will simply counter with the opposite whether or not it’s true. Then when cornered, apparently a lot of different posts arrive to bury the previous nonsense. But you are stuck in a circle. I can’t predict the future of the Satoshi Scheme but I can tell you you are stuck here forever. Providing ample entertainment to the people coming here to laugh at people pretending to promote and then claim not to promote BTC just a few posts away. It’s funny…

This is the reason I believe he has mental issues.
That, or he is a plain liar.
Also the FACT that he can’t accept that BTC is(was) a ponzi.

Pretty rich coming from you. A person who thinks they have to lecture other people about a topic where you don’t even understand the basics.
It clearly isn’t, and just repeating it will not suddenly change reality. And by the way how are you even able to judge that, you don’t even know on an ELI5 level how any of this works.

You’re not even in a position to clearly and concisely type out where your issue is, all you say is “it’s a scam” and give absolute zero reasoning. I have fully agreed people are using BTC as a type of ponzi, I’m not here trying to convince people of anything, in fact a few posts ago I told people not to buy BTC and if you do keep it off an exchange, I have made it clear 53 million traders in BTC can never make any profit from a genuine user base of 400k (last years BTC user amount)
So I am unsure where you think lies are coming from, Also you don’t seem to even have a clue what you’re talking about anyway so how would you know what I was lying about.
Let me be crystal clear, If one does not understand BTC and they have never done trading or investing in BTC or anything else, then It is not a good idea for you to start investing in BTC as the genuine use cases of BTC are still very low.
If this isn’t clear enough for you then you have issues.

I’m not trying to convince anyone of anything. I have been very clear that BTC is not a good investment for the normal sort of person. It’s become clear that exchanges are not being honest with their investors which has become apparent.
Your tirade against BTC itself has failed, your tirade against people will also fail because you don’t take any time to learn about this subject that you are speaking extensively on.
I am interested in discussing fact and logic.
I can admit though, I was sucked into all of this because I thought I could earn money from renting GPU processing power online to people who wanted to mine crypto coins. Even though I kept it real and still invested EXCLUSIVELY in computer components. I’m not mining hardly anything today and my rigs actually save me money on heating my home so I am very lucky I didn’t spend ££££ on buying BTC directly.
The little BTC that I did earn was spent quickly, so effectively I was actually a genuine BTC user because it was used for retail purposes and not profit.
