I don't save my money on bank account anymore - who else like me?

I heared about Bitcoin when the price is about $200 - but at that time, I searched about it, and completely ignored it. It wasn't interesting for me at that time. As I am growing older and learning more about econimics as my hobby, my view has been changed.

So I revisited Bitcoin not that long ago - and then I figured out this is 'the sh1t'. This is the next big thing. I researched all cryptocurrencies and blockchain technologies for couple monthes - I barely slept and ate while I was researching. Bitcoin blew my mind it's because it IS perfect technologically and economically. After that, I decided not to put my money on the bank. Saving money on the bank account doesn't really make sense. And also, I pulled out all my money from the stock market. I told this my parents, and they called me I am crazy haha (I haven't told this to all my friends though, and I think I won't).

And for me, I don't really care about today's Bitcoin price. If the price goes up, it's good because I hold bitcoins. If the price goes down, it's good because I can buy more with the cheap price.

Plus, I decided not to tell this story to my friends - I am thinking about the future, and it can be very dangerous for me if I told to someone that I own single bitcoin.

This is just short story of my life.

No, Bitcoin is not controlled by a small group of investors and miners (A rebuttal to the TechSpot article)

I write this primarily in response to the TechSpot article from yesterday ( r/technology mods told me they only allow “ mainstream articles with editorial oversight and fact-checking ” so I'm sharing this here). But I’d also like to take this opportunity to write about Bitcoin more broadly as someone who has been following it for more than a decade and I’ll try to do so without complicating the conversation for anyone unfamiliar with Bitcoin. The TechSpot article cites a non-peer-reviewed National Bureau of Economic Research (NBER) working paper from Igor Makarov and Antoinette Schoar. NBER claims to be non-partisan but it is a private NPO funded by the likes of Bill Gates foundation . The chairman of NBER, Karen Horn, is a former president of the Federal Reserve Bank of Cleveland and Head of Int...

Day 9: I will post this guide regularly until available solutions like SegWit, order batching, and Lightning payment channels are mass adopted, the mempool is empty once again, and tx fees are low. Have you done your part?

BACKGROUND Segregated Witness (SegWit) was activated on the Bitcoin network August 24 2017 as a soft fork that is backward compatible with previous bitcoin transactions ( Understanding Segregated Witness ). Since that time wallets and exchanges have been slow to deploy SegWit, and the majority of users have not made the switch themselves. On Dec 18 2017 Subhan Nadeem has pointed out that: If every transaction in the Bitcoin network was a SegWit transaction today, blocks would contain up to 8,000 transactions, and the 138,000 unconfirmed transaction backlog would disappear instantly. Transaction fees would be almost non-existent once again . Mass SegWit use alone could empty the mempool, result in blocks that are not completely full, and make it possible to include transactions with $0 fee once again. On Jan 11 2018 when BTC sends went offline at Coinbase the mempool began to rapidly empty. Later in the day when service was restored there was a sharp spike up in the mempool . Subse...
