Because email has no value except as a means of communication. Bitcoin and other cryptocurrencies are massive speculation scams. It's popular because everyone wants to hold one in the hopes it goes up in value. There's no reason for it to go up in value except that other people think it will go up in value and want to buy one too.
You're buying a number on a blockchain somewhere in the hope someone else will want it for more money, that's it.
- boringg 5y agoI’m curious if it is actually such a large scam with too many people that they can’t let it fail.
- LegitShady 5y agothere is no such thing. Too big to fail is another coded way to describe political allies and backers who get influence in the government through their contributions. The size of the problem isn't the issue, it's who has the problem that is.
- boringg 5y agoGood point. Slightly conspiratorial but probably fairly accurate.
