I have failed severally trying to get a genuine account manger for investment, even traded with some that promised and never delivered as said. But my colleague at work introduced me to Coreytradings on instagram and ever since, I have benefited so much that i can't imagine. Indeed he is a blessing to I and my family. Get in touch with him and forget about your loss.

    It is important to add, people started using bank notes as currency and not always bringing the notes back in to recive their gold or whatever else they deposited in the bank. So the banks got gready and sneaky and startedt lending out more money than they were actually taking in. However, as they started to push this further and further eventually they got caught unable to honor there own bank notes. So if the banks weren't so dishonest and gready they wouldn't have gone belly up.
    Btw they still do this today. It's called fractional reserve banking and it how the banks get to make tons of money all while destabilizing and inflating the dollar.

When I buy my gift card with bitcoin I get 3% back. Sure there was a bubble in 2013 but the value has dropped to a more sane level while the network continues to grow. Bitcoin is just another currency only it doesn't need government force to give it value. The value of bitcoin is the network. And sure one hipster blew up mt gox but bitcoin is still roaring along.

    • @Fukkensaved
      @Fukkensaved 6 ปีที่แล้ว

      Fifthelement203, like many people, you're missing the point of Bitcoin and cryptocurrency in general. It's not meant to be an investment, it's an alternative currency. The appeal of it is that all transactions can be tracked through the block chain, but no individual transactions can be traced back to any actual individuals through the magic of cryptography.
      Now, is it perfect? Absolutely not. There are many issues with Bitcoin and the like that are currently being hashed out between the different crytocurrencies. However, the future of it as a viable, usable currency that's completely untraceable and regulated by central banking is looking more and more bright every day. This is why you're seeing the price of cryptocurrency skyrocket. People are starting to understand the benefits of an economy that lacks central control.

    Interesting. First off, his comparison of Bitcoin to fiat currency is wrong. Fiat currency is issued by and controlled by its issuing government. Bitcoin is stateless, trustless, and is neither issued nor controlled by any single entity, therefore it is about as far from the Iraqi Dinar as you could get.
    Second, this was published on the last day of February 2014. If Dave had "wasted" $1,000,000 on Bitcoin that day, it would be worth roughly $14,567,100 today.
