Look, if you really wanted to understand this, you'd be honest in your arguments and present a better understanding than just repeating that it costs pennies to print 100$ (and therefore USD is superior) If it was so easy and cheap to print a 100$, why isn't everyone doing it? Obviously, it's not easy or cheap to do, and it's also illegal. The US govt enforces the legality. So, you should factor in the cost of running the US govt and the cost of enforcing the law through the judicial system. Suppose the US military disappeared overnight, what do you think will happen to the value of the dollar? you most certainly should factor in the cost of running the US army as well. And then the banking ecosystem itself in the US, which is well over 10 trillion $ as of now. The bitcoin ecosystem rolls all of these features into a single concise, self-policed network. I'd much rather have a permission-less SoV that is not controlled/backed by a nation state or a set of corporations (like Libra). 'perl4ever' should've tipped me off, I never learn :(. I don't think I have anymore time to argue with you.
