Crypto action is in Asia.
Bangkok is fast becoming a real Crypto hub. We were at some conferences there recently and to work on some projects at our production facilities. Watch this space for some very cool stuff.
I had a night out with my friends to check out their new band and then sat down to talk Bitcoin with them once the work was done.
This is what a soft fork looks like, the potential Bitcoin Cash Hard Fork will not be so nice.
The Miner summit in Bangkok provided some drama with Craig Wright, also known by many as ‘Fake Satoshi’, calling it a circle jerk and leaving on day one! Bitcoin cash might have a Hard fork happening in November as that community is having some pretty heated disagreements. Will Craig Wright and his N Chain crew hard fork? We will take a closer look at that very soon.
Rock Shreller
But this article is more about the thoughts of some real Hardforkers. As a group, they are Rock Shreller, a very cool Bangkok based band!
Seeing the band play there at Maggie Choo’s, one of the coolest nightclubs on the planet was just awesome! The band will be playing all over Asia and you can stay up to date with them on our website. Follow them, their music, and Bitcoin journeys right here. They are real Hardforkers!
‘Rock Shreller’ is rising quickly in recognition for being one of Asia’s biggest electronic acts!
Individually they are a mixture of content creators with Hardforking.com and people who were some of the first to learn about Bitcoin and Cryptocurrencies and use the site to buy Bitcoins and Altcoins. We use the term Hardforking to describe living life on your own terms. If that is you, get involved in what we are doing.
FOMO
The fear of missing out – Two of the group got swept up in Decembers bull run and just had to get some Bitcoin. When people say they bought the top I think that is only true if you have subsequently sold. I had not seen these guys for a while so it was with great interest that IÂ found out if they had Hodled or if like many others had become Bitcoin haters.
Yes, we have created an onboarding site to help people to better understand Bitcoin, Cryptocurrencies and Blockchain, but we like to think there is no hard sell or any sell at all. A decision to buy into what we think is a society changing technology, must be made by yourself and after plenty of research. I can’t give financial advice but I will say that you need to understand what Bitcoin is first, it is not a price!!!! The value proposition of Bitcoin is money, strongly resistant against:
- confiscation
- freezing
- censorship
- inflation
- counterfeit
Bitcoin can also be seen as digital gold with its own banking system built into it. Gold can be taken off you though, Bitcoin can not, and this makes it the first time in human history such an asset exists.
It’s simple, the more of us that decide Bitcoin is actually worth something, the more it will be worth! Personally, I think it going to be worth a lot!
Hodlers or Haters
As you’ve seen they are not haters, far from it! They are serious hardforkers! We also use the term to describe Hardforking from Fiat. Fiat is that stuff you use in your country, they call it money! It’s backed by nothing and its value is moved around by a couple of people at their personal whim.
Now, I don’t hate bankers or politicians, I have many good friends who are bankers and I know some very senior politicians. What I do hate, is any attack on Bitcoin from bankers or politicians. That seems to have calmed down now and I think there is likely a buy-up underway as regulation is coming into this industry. My feeling is that if you thought last year was crazy I suspect we will be in for big surprises over the next two years though. We have just begun people, it’s going to be a roller coaster ride.
Take your time and learn what Bitcoin is all about!
If you are new to bitcoin and cryptocurrencies, take your time, do the research, know how to look after your own Bitcoins and Crypto. Plenty of easy options will be available soon where you do not have to understand a wallet. Sorry, that is not what this is all about. Be a hardforker, be your own bank.
Lastly, if you are already in Bitcoin and have been for more 6 months, you are now a hardforker and influencer, get in touch and help us spread the word.
