I am writing this post with a plea to the ' old hands' and the 'newbies' as well, in general to anyone who will read and listen.
I have been on here a short time, about a month I should guess and in that time I have written a few posts, mainly about things I am interested in and things that I know a little about.
Yesterday I went out of my comfort zone and posted about cryptocurrancies and was asking if they would ever truly replace paper money. I read articles, listened to what people were saying, read blog posts on here and other sites and the information was confusing and most of the time things being said were playing both sides of the fence, saying on the one hand it would but then again it might not.
I was writing my opinion and asking questions, trying to make sense of it all in my own head as to be honest I know very little about cryptocurrancies. If you ask me to settle a lucky 63 bet manually then I would have no problem doing that because that is what I do day in and day out - it's what I know, cryptocurrancies and what the hopes and desires for them in the future I don't know hence why I am trying to learn.
I wrote my post and whilst I do not expect people to read it or comment I felt a bit better afterwards as I had written my research and made a bit more sense of it in my head. I received two comment on that blog post, one saying ' that was not the idea' and another saying he used his debit card so didn't use cash anyway and cryptocurrancies will not be magic but another way to store value.
I was confused once more - what was not the idea ?? What do you mean ?? What part was I missing or had I got mixed up ?
Another way to store value ?? Value for what ? Money ? Goods ? So would we still have both cash and crypto ? Which would be worth more ?
I guess the reason for this post is to ask very nicely to anyone who is reading that if they put a comment on a post like the ones above maybe they could explain what they mean - not everyone is a mind reader and not everyone knows what you mean and I am sure there are many others on here like myself who are trying to learn and to learn we need information
