Huge Bitcoin discussion in /r/Ukraina (self.Bitcoin)

efxco が 投稿

Hello, my name is efxco and I am the moderator of /r/BitRussia

We published this post https://np.reddit.com/r/ukraina/comments/3950sk/как_биткоинтехнологии_меняют_рынок_международных/ in /r/Ukraina (non-Bitcoin Russian subreddit) & was surprised to get such an active response from Ukrainian friends. Around 20 people who didn't knew a lot about Bitcoin joined this thread & asked a lots of questions.

When it comes to discussing Bitcoin with politically active people - it is mostly very educated & interesting young people, and they know a lots of things about Bitcoin, but the most difficulty in understanding they get, when it comes to Bitcoin's units - they have problems of understanding why Bitcoin will rise in value in future, and what happens if we will be out of Bitcoins.

As a coincidence yesterday I've met around 10 activist-people on the street of our little Russian town, who were promoting some communist paper magazine :P These guys were really promoting communism & I started talking about Bitcoin to them, and we had an hour-long amazing discussion. Interesting coincidence - and the political guys I met on the street is almost the same like those political people with whom I had a discussion in /r/Ukraina - seems like yesterday's street meeting prepared me for a discussion today on /r/Ukraina :)

It was my best 4 hours spent on USSR reddits. I love politically active people, that is another group of Bitcoin-ready people along with multi-level marketers, forex-trading evangelists, religious shillers :P so much places for fun :D

I know that things aren't perfect, but I love that the cold war is over.

It just occurred to me that many here probably weren't even alive during that time period... don't go there again.

Eh, from what I can make out using google translate the top comment is complaining that it's lost 66% of its value in 1 year.

The second highest rated comment is saying that he doesn't understand the point, and just sees Bitcoin as a niche financial instrument for black markets.

The third highest upvoted comment is complaining about the difficulty and expense of mining.

Sounds like they really get it! ;-p

Maybe buttcoiners know Russian.

[–]HanumanTheHumane 1ポイント2ポイント  (1子コメント)

Maybe /u/Frankeh posted those comments himself, using Google translate?

I put on my tin foil hat and tin foil robe.

Or maybe they are actually valid points of critisizim.

[–]Phrenico 8ポイント9ポイント  (0子コメント)

Bitcoin's next patch should require that its value always rises, cannot be used for black market activity, and gives out free bitcoins to anyone who mines regardless of hashpower.

That would solve the problems, right?

[–]MeanOfPhidias 0ポイント1ポイント  (0子コメント)

The point being Bitcoin exists in the market like anything else and human beings are finding uses for it?

WOOOOooooooo Check out the brain on /u/GoodPhantonBadDog

My favourite was the mod's reply:

Here's what it means to be away all day. Why here need this moronic advertising? 154 comments, ohrenet. A couple of times already deleted, no sooner had prilezt′ when I do it. And suck this moronic site with different accounts, and suck, and so, and Indians.

I'm Ukrainian and I hate that subreddit. Its like r/worldnews but Ukraine centered. A bunch of idiots talking about how smart they are and jerking it to the status quo. Also they hate Russians. Not sure I'd waste my time there.

I've just found out that their leader was against any PR on Bitcoin. By accident I have managed to have this discussion to 156 comments while he was absenst. Probably otherwise he would deleted the whole topic.

Here's what their main moderator /u/TrenchFouch said afterward:

Вот, что значит отсутствовать целый день. Зачем здесь нужна эта идиотская реклама ? 154 комментариев, охренеть. Пару раз уже удалял, нет, успели прилезть, когда меня нe было... И тулят этот свой идиотский сайт с разных аккаунтов, и тулят, и так, и сяк...

Translation:

That is what it means to miss a day. Why here need this stupid hype? 154 comments oh my God. A couple of times already deleted, no they had to raise this one again ... And now again they put this site with different accounts and so on, and so on ...

By the end of the day that was very productive day. I hope the management of /r/Ukraina and /r/bitcoin will remain to be friends. After all we're following the same goal: more pieceful life for Ukraine citizens.

[–]turdovski 2ポイント3ポイント  (0子コメント)

Yep. That's how they work. Anything they don't like, or anything that shows Ukraine in a bad light gets deleted.

Only things allowed on that sub are circlejerking over how amazing Ukraine is and how terrible/evil Russia is.

Bitcoin did support Maidan at the time:

Hate? I wonder why...

[–]turdovski 9ポイント10ポイント  (5子コメント)

Well I don't hate Russians and I was born in Kiev.

Not sure how the average Russian person is responsible for anything happening in Ukraine right now.

[–]CanaryInTheMine 0ポイント1ポイント  (0子コメント)

I suspect the ppl are just sheep usually, the culprits are the leaders in charge. One of them said before, I'm paraphrasing, how wonderful that people don't think.

[–]_professorcrypto_ 0ポイント1ポイント  (3子コメント)

Exactly. Also, I don't think Russia is responsible for anything happening in Ukraine right now.

[–]ellis1884uk 0ポイント1ポイント  (2子コメント)

except the troops.

[–]_professorcrypto_ 0ポイント1ポイント  (1子コメント)

You drink too much propaganda. Free yourself.

[–]ellis1884uk 0ポイント1ポイント  (0子コメント)

no mate, I have Ukrainian friends and heard first hand what is going on their and Putin's flex of strength, he's even doing it by flying bombers almost into UK airspace.

[–]walloon5 1ポイント2ポイント  (0子コメント)

Bitcoin is definitely a fun and controversial technology ... hopefully it can help people out in the long run.

[–]bitwork 1ポイント2ポイント  (0子コメント)

any chance someone could direct the english speakers over here to help clearify things and have a larger pool of experts.

[–]sqrt7744 1ポイント2ポイント  (6子コメント)

Communists are not going to love bitcoin since it bypasses centralized control by design.

[–]amnesiac-eightyfour 3ポイント4ポイント  (0子コメント)

Today, everyone owning more than 1.5683746 BTC is an enemy of the working class!

[–]darrenturn90 0ポイント1ポイント  (0子コメント)

In the world of bitcoin however, everyone is equal.
