Use Litecoin or Ethereum instead. Both are more secure, more stable and faster.

Funny part is, you're still wrong. There is a need obviously, as people are switching. If I deposit to GDAX, sell to USD, and withdraw to my bank it will be there in 1 business day. It's been that way for years, for almost everyon

I don't agree. The best case scenario for bitcoin is it becoming the de facto monetary standard, meaning there would be no reason to buy or cash out, as everything would be priced in bitcoin.

This is completely true; miners will mine the coin that gives them the best ROI. If Bitcoin's value decreases without an equal decrease in difficulty, the whole thing could crash quite fast.

No you can't. Most U.S. banks require a 1-2 day hold on mobile deposits still. Some banks, like USAA, credit you immediately, but most major banks and local CUs don't.

That downward adjustment is total bs, and can enable (like is happening currently) a scenario where miners lower their hashpower for ~12 hours, the difficulty drops, and they all pile back on and get ~2 minute blocks for 2016 blocks and ear
