Considering that Bitcoin is comprised of people who are very good at math, people who are active investors, and people who are currency enthusiasts, shows that you have no idea what you're talking about.
- PhantomGremlin 11y agoBitcoin people aren't investors, they're speculators. Big difference. Bitcoin resembles tulipmania much more than investing. At least I can pay my taxes with the fiat currency that is the US dollar. The only thing I can do with Bitcoin is pass it on to a greater fool or to someone who will use it as an intermediate "currency" which he will immediately convert to something more tangible. Bitcoin is very useful as a short term medium of exchange. It's not an investment and it's not a store of value.
