While it may or not be a bubble the values we're seeing now will not sustain. The governments of the world will allow it to exist in the long run but you're nuts if you don't think they are going to put a smash on the unchecked beast it is now. Originally Posted by MASTODON

LOL - gov'ts can shut this down. It's decentralized. Read up some more before you start making wild accusations about the future of blockchain and crypto.

coinmarketcap.com

$566,551,928,990 - Market Cap
over $40 billion in the past 24 hours traded

We now have completely decentralized exchanges for crypto - trading platforms that aren't centralized! Not central authority or point of failure (minus the DNS hacking that occurred later today, but another tech will solve that once it's finalized)

We are in the early stages still and all this tech is the protocol layer. Low level nerdy shit that I highly enjoy charging my high prices to solve problems for my clients.

This how the internet runs: HTTP protocols. IP address. Packets. That's the web's protocol layer. You think of this stuff when you visit eccie? Nope because the web browser abstracts the user away from the protocols.

Products & platforms are being build NOW to do this for the average users that blockchain and crypto don't have currently. Once we have those released. More money & users will continue to pour into the space driving up the value of each coin that serves a purpose.

BTC, ETH, and LTC are in great buying dip right meow.

It'll be a smaller underground thing and not what it has become. I trade crypto. It has made me a lot of money. I just know without emotion or bias where its headed.

I was almost ready to jump on the bitcoin bandwagon, but I have concerns about the speed of transactions, and the power involved in mining. I am hearing some transactions are hanging in the balance and the transactions are getting expensive as far as the electricity required.

I think a lot of people are just jumping in due to the bubble, but it's too early in the game to see how it plays out and I am personally not a gambler. Not when it comes to money.

I do believe cryptocurrency is the wave of the future but I have a feeling bitcoin is going to be the beta version compared to others currencies that have faster transactions. As Japjapjap said, it could crash to a more realistic level. Originally Posted by CurvyKatie

Serious question-

Values fluctuate by the hour with cryptos.

Do you accept the $ value at the beginning or end of the session?

Who eats the transfer fees?
