How? 2 million bitcoins for 1 person?
the guy that created the whole thing has 1 million Bitcoins

The currency is very vulnerable, if someone decides to start selling of their coins and they flood the market with coins, what will happen then? If the price crashes, what happens to small investors? No government will bail out anybody that played Russian roulette with their money on a global ponzi scheme

He's right. The world is moving away from fiat to crypto. There are crypto ATMs in Europe and the US/Canada where u can fund ur cards with crypto and use it to trade/pay.
Many online stores also accept bitcoin payment.

Admittedly in Africa it's still in the nascent stage. 15 years from now crypto will be the main trading medium and there ain't nothing the cbn can do about it.
how can bitcoin become the currency of the world?

cheesy cheesy do you know how much is in circulation in the world? if 1 million bitcoins is worth 37 billion $

21 million bitcoins is the total that will ever exist, that cant even service california alone talkless of the entire world, its blockchain technology that the world likes not bitcoin

How come you only look at the "negative" side of it.
Fiat like the Naira also plummets or gains, do you hold the government responsible?

BTC, BNB, ETH and other alts have gained immensely since inception and will only get better.
Imagine if u had 2 BTC 5yrs ago and you hodl, would u be saying all this?
Contrast that to having 18 million in the bank from 5yrs ago, now it's value would have only diminished as the Naira has "plummeted" since bubu took power.
cheesy cheesy cheesy cheesy

doesnt change the fact that its a long game ponzi scheme, criminals use it to move cash, speculators use it to take advantage of new investors, someone with 2 million bitcoins for sale will crash the entire system in less than 5hrs

That is one of the best thing crypto has given to people. The freedom to be in control of ur money. It is decentralized. No government or banks has to be in charge but you who's the owner.
Please read up on cryptocurency
someone called it a company that its traded like stocks hence the question


decentralized meaning nobody will be held responsible if its value plummets and people lose all their savings

The supply of bitcoin is fixed youngman, what this means is once all that has been in supply has been bought, you can only buy it from someone who has it. People put thier money in bitcoin because the other world global fiat currencies such as dollars etc won’t be able to cope with what has been happening recently due to the pandemic etc

You can wake up anyday and print more dollars and flood the whole system with more dollars, you can’t with bitcoin, bitcoin supply is finite meaning it has an upper edge over dollars and other fiat currencies
supply of bitcoin being fixed means nothing, it will only inflate the value further

bitcoin is also fiat, what is the intrinsic value of bitcoin?

This is the poor Nigerian version of explaining the volatility of cryptocurrencies. The supply of cyortocurriences are fixed meaning they don’t need YOU or anybody to buy and they don’t need YOU or anybody to sell

Whenever you buy any crypto currency it’s value can go hope and go down just like when you are buying shares on the Nigerian stock exchange, Dangite cement shares can rise and fall anytime.

This is not because they need new investors and old investors are cashing out, whether you buy any Cryptocurrency or not

Also buying and selling crypto currencies is not the only reason people use cyotocurrneixes some use it for international transactions, its like a currency with no borders.

If cyotocurrencies was a Ponzi scheme, have you ever seen a Ponzi scheme being used to pay people school fees and import cars etc
they aren't fixed, demand and supply is what determines the price of Bitcoin, people panicked that the global economy will crash and invested in Bitcoin to counteract the effect, that's why the price sky rocketed last year

What is Money?
How is Bitcoin different from the money in your Bank. Its just numbers you have as money. It's not physical hope you understand. They can't print everyone money if not you have inflation.

Bitcoin is better than your Niara because it grows. Your Naira is trash...
money is a legal tender that is guaranteed by a government

Bitcoin isn't guaranteed by anyone, if everybody using it decide to pull out, it will crash to zero cause bulk of it's current value is inflated

Crypto and mmm are two opposite things!
Something that has been constantly appreciating since 2009 till date like a plot of land is what u compare to mmm? Yahoo boys have been using western union since way back till date, why didn't any of u come out to clamour for the ban of western union? Crypto started in 2009, and started gaining recognition around 2016, na 2009 criminal activities start?

We know those of u who were unlucky to go into the crypto before the increase are the ones masturbating on all thread, shouting crypto ban! It is typical of the Blackman, it is a case of envy!
they are the same, the money you make from Bitcoin is someone else investment in Bitcoin

Bitcoin is not a company, it doesn't have offices, it doesn't make or generate revenue, if more people buy it, it becomes more profitable for the previous investor, it's a gigantic ponzi scheme
