Would you like to live 250 years?

I would not like to live 250 years because of too many changes that will occurre at that time. For the first and most significant most of the people that I love will pass away. Sometimes the death of our loved ones takes all the will to live and nothing is the same anymore. Secondly, during this time the world will evolve a lot. Discoveries, environment, technology - life will look completely different and it could be hard to get used to it. Eventually, I think that 80 years is more than enough to do everything you want from life and even get bored. Many people dream about being able to live much longer but for me this amount of changes will be too much to handle

    I think you're right. Most old people hold on to life desperately not because they want to enjoy their life so much but because they are afraid of what's going to happen to them after death.

Bitcoin

Everyone has heard that name once in their lives. Bitcoin is undeniably the most famous cryptocurrency in the world. It was created in 2009 by an anonymous creator hiding their identity under the pseudonym known as Satoshi Nakamoto. Since then, an unknown founder and their $64 billion stake, has long been a point of major interest, especially as their personal wealth continues to grow. From the time it was created, Bitcoin has experienced significant highs and lows - in the past year, the currency has risen over 400%. As of today, one bitcoin is worth about $40,000. The mystery behind such a success may lie in the fact that it was the first cryptocurrency to ever exist and the first using blockchain technology. Bitcoin has not only been a trendsetter, ushering in a wave of cryptocurrencies built on a decentralised peer-to-peer network, but has also become the de facto standard for them, inspiring an ever growing legion of followers and spinoffs. In addition, one of the first tangible i...

What is Cryptocurrency?

To put it simply, cryptocurrency is a medium of exchange digital money that is encrypted and decentralised. It is based on blockchain technology which is a system of recording information in a way that makes it difficult or impossible to change. The fact that it is decentralised means there is no central authority that manages and maintains the value of the cryptocurrency - unlike the U.S Dollar or the Euro. You can use it to buy regular goods and services, although most people invest in it like they do in stocks or precious metals. Everyone can purchase cryptocurrency on peer-to-peer networks and cryptocurrency exchanges, such as Coinbase and Bitfinex; however, investing in it might be risky due to its intense price swings and system differences. Keep in mind to not invest more money than you can afford to lose. There are more than 5,000 different cryptos in circulation and the most popular ones are Bitcoin, Ethereum and Dogecoin. Some people even refer to it as 'digital gold'...

The rose phenomenon

When I was on holiday at the seaside with my friends there was a lady that every evening walked around the city and sold roses. What was unconventional is that she was offering the flowers only to the couples or when she saw a man and a woman together. The lady was taking advantage of men feeling pressure of making a good impression on women and usually decided to buy the rose. It is my belief that the lady selling flowers acted inequitable offering them only to the couples. Furthermore, getting leverage over a man feeling guilty for not buying the rose because 'it is appropriate' is damaging for the society and could be linked with the toxic masculinity. It should be someone's choice whether they want to gift their loved ones and especially with what or when. Also receiving a flower because of the forced situation like that must feel awkward and uncomfortable. I believe that if we want to move forward as a society we have to banish stereotypes from our everyday life.
