The light and the dark side of Cryptocurrency

Recommended Posts

Cryptocurrency was started as a means to buy and sell through the internet. Once blockchain technology was released to the world it opened up the buying and selling worldwide and for anything, whether legal or illegal. Law enforcement has been busy trying to follow this trend because of the dark web. The selling of human trafficking to real underworld activities began.

But there was also the light side of cryptocurrency where one could buy goods for instance, real estate, food, clothing and not have anyone know what you are buying. No tax, no paper trail. Sounds like the good ole' days of the 1800's when there was still free enterprise, where one was free to buy and sell under their own terms.

What do you see as the future, good and bad, coming from cryptocurrency?

The good side with the bitcoin is that you can it free through posting in the forum (eg. Bitcointalk, Cryptotalk), faucets, and mining. And it deals a great price.

The bad side is that the price is unstable which will go whether ups and downs fast and which is difficult to predict.

Cryptos gained notoriety, and governments startd to turn their eyes on its market and the userbase. The logical response from them is start passing laws about crypto use, and of course, taxes. Crypto will be regulated sooner or later by the governments and their dark side use will be erased.

It is predictable that cryptocurrency has two sides. I think there is nothing to be done about it, since the blockchain gives anonymity and the possibility of illegal transfers that the authorities can not track. As for me, the benefits of cryptocurrency cover all its shortcomings.

Just like the mob has found loopholes in fiat currency, meaning how to make money without claiming it, so will happen if crypto ever gets centralized. Criminals are clever and they find ways to steal your stuff. In crypto it could be the scam of tricking someone into opening a wallet for them or giving you a false exchange.

Like anything there is is a good and bad side and I fear the bad side is overtaking the good. Crypto currency is an interesting concept but with it being unregulated the market value is all over the place. Not where I would choose to put my money. I always viewed the block chain being the fare greater value than the currencies that ride on it.

In today's world where privacy is being invaded from every angle crypto currency is vulnerable to being outlawed if any large government desires to make it so.  Couple that with stigma that anyone buying products or services is seen as trying to hide something. People buying drugs, human sex trafficking, including children along with all the boogeyman stories being told that involve people buying things with their crypto. If for some reason a citizen is being investigated by any authority you can be sure they're going to have suspicions if there is a crypto currency involved. 

I think for most here its about selling and buying in order to make some money. And to that I say, have at it. For me? I see it as a red flag that draws unnecessary and unwarranted suspicion .

You are right that the blockchain holds the most value. If someone is messing with it, it's a bad sign.

Legit companies with secure wallets & exchanges are vital to weeding out the bad from the good. Blockchains hold all transactions for full view, thus creating a paper trail.

Dark side is the crypto that if someone exchange will close and we invest good money to that exchange because when the exchange will be closed our all money is gone and the bright side is just that when we invest our money in a coin and that will pump so much and our money is greater than 10 times.

I agree, It is actually challenging and problematic for the investors if the bitcoin is having a rise and fall value. Having Illegal actvities on this activity is one of its dark side. On the other hand, I agree to you that this can be a source of income, that is why I join on this industry since I wanted to have an extra income because I was still a student.

bitcoin is like a double-sided knife, many people liken that sentence. I just saw that cryptocurrency is a currency with easy and fast transactions on a global scale. However I see it depends on the nature of crypto or bitcoin users. As you said there is a dark side and a light side to crypto that can be utilized.

 

Note: not paying for tax is a dark side too.

When we buy things using fiat currency we pay plenty of taxes, IMO. I get some taxes are a way to pay for roads & infrastructure but beyond those taxes have taken over peoples livelihood. We all know we are over taxed and crooked politicians are not using taxpayer money as if it were being from their own pockets. I like that crypto is not being taxed, is untraceable and gives people some invisible presence. Unfortunately it has the dark side of use for illegal activities.

I'm just saying not paying taxes is not a good thing. In my country the biggest income from the government is the tax revenue, regardless of the nature of the politicians but the tax is very useful for the needs of society. I condemn politicians who take tax funds for their own pocket.

 

I also use crypto and I like it, there are no laws in the government that require tax payments on cryptocurrency revenue.

Yes, I agree to this, because it is really happening and we still don't know. But I guess it has a good side too, as of now, for me, it is helpful because aside from gaining profit for this, I enhance also the skills like reading comprehension and make my time valuable. But we still don't know what happens in future, if it will come out as a good or bad, I guess, we, who are using cryptocurrency should be responsible and make investment that wil help us in our future.

The best thing about crypto is that it's not regulated by one, decentralized system has no delegation from the authority to control over it. Unlike our currency today that is being control by the government. The counterfeit of it, its the volatility of the price of Bitcoin. It easily fluctuates from time to time, that it cause why some countries didn't adopt it totally.

Crypto is the great business but there are so many problems in it like you asked about light side and dark side of the crypto so i just tell you that we got profit in it but if someone will scam with us we don,t know who he is and we lost our money but we invest in it because we trust on this market.

Well, there are several details in which I agree with you, one of the good aspects is that it attracts more freedom and time in people's lives, each person can buy in anonymity, invest and expand their life to their liking and as allowed In itself, even the bad part is a lesson for crypto enthusiasts, bad-name activities such as money laundering and hackers trying to break systems are indications of bad gaps, it is there that you learn not to do that and not commit them mistakes, even though all of that is an equal business.

Cryptocurrencies have a lot of advantages but in the same time the truth is that they also have some disadvantages but that's how everything is. You can't find something absolutely perfect in this world.

    • CryptoNews of the Week     - As expected, on April 20, the fourth halving occurred on the bitcoin network at block #840000. The reward for mining a block has been reduced from 6.25 BTC to 3.125 BTC. It's worth reminding that a halving is the event that reduces the reward for mining new blocks in the bitcoin blockchain by half. This event is encoded in the code of the first cryptocurrency and occurs every 210,000 blocks: until the mining of 21 million coins, presumably in 2040, when the cryptocurrency's emission will end. The fourth halving will ensure that about 95% of all bitcoin emission is mined, with approximately 99% of all coins mined by 2033-2036. Following that, the emission will gradually move towards zero. Economist and author of the cult book "The Bitcoin Standard," Saifedean Ammous, congratulated the crypto community on the halving. "For the first time in history, people have a form of money whose supply increases by less than 1% per year. [...] The harder the money, the slower its supply increases, the better it retains value in the future, and allows for planning and securing the future," he wrote.   - In the days following the halving, there was no increase in volatility. The price of bitcoin slowly and lazily moved upwards, reaching $66,000 at the time of writing this review. It seems that market participants are frozen in anticipation of who will start buying or selling the main cryptocurrency en masse. However, the founder of venture company Pomp Investments, Anthony Pompliano, believes that within 12-18 months, the coin is likely to first undergo a correction and then rise to $100,000 with chances of reaching $150,000-200,000. "At the moment, the probability of a decrease is quite small. [...] I see no reasons for the rate to drop below $50,000. I think we have already crossed this Rubicon," the entrepreneur believes. Pompliano recommended buying gold to those looking for capital protection from the fall and the first cryptocurrency to those aiming to increase their purchasing power. "After the previous halving, the first cryptocurrency appreciated eightfold despite volatility. Name any other asset that has shown such high returns over a four-year cycle," he stated, revealing that he invested about half of his personal funds in the first cryptocurrency.   - Analysts at QCP Capital believe that bitcoin optimists will need to wait at least two months before assessing the impact of the recent fourth halving. "The spot price has only grown exponentially 50-100 days after each of the previous three halvings. If this pattern repeats, bitcoin bulls still have weeks to build a larger long position," their report states.   - According to Bitfinex experts, the post-halving supply restriction will stabilize the price of the first cryptocurrency and may contribute to its growth. "The decrease in the pace of bitcoin issuance after halving, which will amount to $30-40 million per day, sharply contrasts with the average daily net inflow of $150 million into spot ETFs. This underscores a significant demand and supply imbalance which may contribute to further price growth," the Bitfinex report indicates.   - A sharp increase in transaction fees on the day of the halving gave Euro Pacific Capital president and "gold bug" Peter Schiff another reason to declare the failure of the first cryptocurrency. On April 20, amid the reduction of the block reward, the average size of fees in the network jumped to a record $128.45. Experts largely linked this to the hype associated with the event around the launch of the Runes protocol. "The cost of completing a transaction now stands at $128, and its processing takes half an hour. This is another reason why bitcoin cannot function as a digital currency. The costs of using it in this capacity are disproportionately high. This is a failure," Schiff declared. (And he was wrong. Shortly thereafter, the rate dropped nearly 73% to $34.86.) In the comments, users asked the well-known gold advocate how much it would cost to safely deliver a pound of precious metal around the world. An estimate ranging from $800,000 to $2.3 million depending on the method and speed was voiced. "Remind me, how much does it cost to transport a gold bar to the other end of the world in half an hour?" Jameson Lopp, co-founder of Casa, sarcastically remarked about speed. Schiff responded that it didn't matter since people no longer use precious metal as currency.   - Speaking at a pre-election rally in Michigan, Robert Kennedy Jr. announced to the attendees that if he is elected President of the USA, every American will have the opportunity to review any budget item. "I will move the entire US budget to the blockchain, and we will have 300 million observers over it. If someone spends $16,000 on a toilet seat, everyone will find out!" he declared. The presidential candidate believes that taxpayers have the right to know exactly what their money is being spent on. According to the politician, blockchain and cryptocurrencies should help the USA remain a leader in innovation and maintain the financial freedom of its citizens. Robert Kennedy Jr. had previously supported bitcoin, stating that the first cryptocurrency takes financial control away from the government and the monopolistic banking system.   - The crypto exchange CoinEx has put up for sale the first satoshi mined after the halving. Buyers can place bids in bitcoins on the auction page. A satoshi is one-hundred-millionth of a bitcoin (0.00000001), and the organisers of the auction hoped that collectors would pay several tens of millions of dollars for this "epic" coin. However, at the time of publication, the highest bid is only 2.5 BTC, which is about $165,000, although this price exceeds the value of one ordinary satoshi by 250 million times. The auction will end on April 26. The exchange will notify participants of the results via a message on the website and by email.   - Fidelity Digital Assets, a leading issuer of one of the spot BTC-ETFs, has revised its mid-term forecast for bitcoin from positive to neutral. The reason for the departure from optimistic views is several worrying trends in the crypto market. Fidelity analysts noted the growing interest in selling from long-term bitcoin hodlers. A large percentage of profitable addresses is currently noted in the report. This means that holders may want to lock in profits and start selling BTC. On the other hand, on-chain data also indicate that small investors continue to accumulate the first cryptocurrency. Since the beginning of the year, the number of addresses holding at least $1,000 in BTC has increased by 20% and reached a new all-time high. "This trend may indicate the growing proliferation of bitcoin and its acceptance among 'average' users," Fidelity notes.   - Investments in bitcoin by "new" whales have almost doubled the indicator of "old" major players. These assessments were shared by the CEO of CryptoQuant, Ki Young Ju. The expert attributed to the "whale" addresses not associated with CEX and miners with a balance of over 1000 BTC. The "new" category includes owners of coins "aged" less than 155 days; "old" exceed this term. Specialists at CryptoQuant examined the dynamics of the 7DMA ratio of the SOPR indicator applied to these categories of investors and made conclusions similar to those of their colleagues from Fidelity. The elevated metric value showed high profitability of "old" hodlers compared to "newcomers," which could lead to the formation of price peaks. Analysis of the current situation also speaks of the need to exercise caution in anticipation of possible corrections and increased volatility. Recall that earlier, specialists from JPMorgan noted that digital gold is in an overbought state. And CMCC Crest co-founder Willy Woo warned that if bitcoin falls below $59,000, the market risks entering a bear phase.   - Representatives of the initiative group of cryptocurrency supporters want to convince the Swiss Bank board to add bitcoins to the CB's reserves. The meeting on this issue will take place on April 26, where the concept of supporters of digital gold will be presented. In their opinion, such a step will strengthen the independence and neutrality of the state. Including BTC in its reserves, Switzerland would show the world that it has an independent financial policy from the European Central Bank. Recall that back in 2022, the initiative group recommended the country's central bank to buy bitcoins for 1 billion Swiss francs (about $1.1 billion) instead of German government bonds, but the regulator ignored this proposal. However, now everything may change. Recently, Switzerland has been providing the most favourable conditions for the development of the cryptocurrency industry, which is why the government of El Salvador even opened its office in the country to jointly develop initiatives related to bitcoin.   - Christian Langlois, also known as Bitcoin Sign Guy, made headlines in 2017 when he displayed a notebook page with the message "Buy Bitcoin" behind Federal Reserve Chair Janet Yellen. At that moment, the FRB Chair was testifying about the state of the US economy. This image instantly spread across the network and became one of the symbols of the emerging crypto industry. For his act, the 22-year-old intern Langlois was disgracefully expelled from the hearings. But after this episode was broadcast on television, enthusiasts sent seven BTC to his crypto wallet to thank the young man for his bold move. Four years ago, Christian sold 21 copies of the notable sheet at an average price of 0.8 BTC each, thus earning an additional 16.8 BTC. As a result, his total earnings reached 23.8 BTC, which is more than $15 million at the current rate. And just a few weeks ago, Langlois was offered another 5 bitcoins for the original, but he refused to sell the sheet. Nevertheless, Christian liked the idea of further monetizing the self-created object of "artistic and historical heritage," and he decided to sell it at an auction. The winner's name will be announced late in the evening on April 24 at the New York snack bar Pubkey, and the young man plans to direct the proceeds to finance his startup, Tirrel Corp. At the time of writing the review, the sheet is offered for $140,000, but the auction is not yet over.
