By this logic, dollar bills make a much better "battery".
- vntok 6y agoNot really because the Dollar bills battery keeps discharging at the inflation rate.
- yjftsjthsd-h 6y agoRight, because BTC value never goes down.
- bingbong70 6y agoNGU - "Number Go Up" technology is one of Bitcoin's most interesting & unique attributes. Few here understand.
- vletal 6y ago> Few here understand. Sounds like a catch phrase from an "alternative" news site or a thing a member of a religious cult would say.
- wavefunction 6y agoI can at least light a dollar on fire for some small measure of warmth!
- danboarder 6y agoPerhaps an equally good "battery", this is the principal of fungibility as a currency. Given the built-in halving structure of bitcoin, in the long run bitcoin may "store" or buy more electricity relative to the dollar that has inflationary pressure (USD tends to lose 3%/yr in real value due to inflation).
