I don't see how that relates to the point you were making. Clarify? > Bitcoin as a currency is fairly useless unless you're buying drugs or you're a botnet operator You claim that Bitcoin is useless. This was to justify the point you made before (nothing will settle in Bitcoin) or maybe as a cheap dig. Either way, your statement as it stands is worded to be condescending and confusing. It's like saying "Mouthwash is fairly useless unless you don't want bad breath." Turns out, the market for people who don't want bad breath is pretty big. Calling it useless is wrong.

What I'm getting at is that Bitcoin is essentially being traded as a security, where it's basically just how much electricity mining pools have wasted. Despite being designed as a currency, it sees very little use as such and mostly just gets moved around between people trying to get rich. >your statement as it stands is worded to be condescending That is intentional. I find Bitcoin is stupid and wasteful by design.
