        "It’s critical to understand what you’re buying when you acquire a cryptocurrency, as well as what technology, team, and processes that cryptocurrency (i.e. your value) is secured by, just as you would when you select your traditional banking institution."

        No. It's nothing like selecting a traditional banking institution. The 'team': are they 'good guys'? Are they 'trustworthy'? This is not how this new paradigm works.

        Yes, but if you get BTC as a beginner you can't afford to take possession of the BTC with your own private keys. Fees will eat you alive unless you are a large scale investor. I will keep buying #BitcoinCash and I invite everybody to attack it.

        People can see for themselves. You can't obtain $10 or even $100 worth of Bitcoin any more. Hack my vulnerable, centralized #BitcoinCash currency. Please.

        Once again that is an outright lie. I've bought $10 and $100 worth of bitcoin recently and have had zero issues sending them to my trezor or electrum...have you? Or are you repeating something you read on Reddit?

        Yes, I buy crypto every paycheck. I've quit using BTC because I was losing way too much in fees. Quit using inflammatory language and maybe this would be a productive discussion. You don't have to call people names when their experience differs from yours.

        I didn't call you any names. You can buy whatever you please, I'm not arguing about that. What I am saying is that you are being misleading about bitcoin, in an attempt to direct attention to bcash.

        There's no need to call someone a liar just because their experience differs from yours. We don't have to fight about it. People can judge the facts about Bitcoin fees for themselves. Direct attention to BCH isn't any more wrong than directing people to BTC.

        You act civil yet you are promoting your investment by undermining the competitor with misleading information. Just because you chalk it up to "personal experience" doesn't make it any less misleading

        Worth pointing out at this moment that price volatility is a form of security flaw. If the price halves has a new investor not lost half? There is a bigger picture

        It's also worthwhile to note that past performance doesn't guarantee future results, especially when your plan for scaling and usability requires implementation of a new, untested style of network.
