I'll bet you they didn't buy and pay for the materials for said house with bitcoin.
I don't really know what your point is now as you apparently view bullets as an asset class, so I've kind of lost your story. If you think you're going to make a much of money on bitcoin I'm not sure why you'd get rid of it. I invest in securities because I think it'll outperform the default choice, I don't invest in things that I think will under-perform it.

- SketchySeaBeast 4y agoFair enough. Clearly our worldviews don't align at all.
- koonsolo 4y agoThat is the difference between you and me. I can see both your worldview and mine, but you can only see yours. I know your worldview because that's the old me. Here is a challenge: try to imagine a world where bullets are an asset. A world where an "asset" is: An asset is a resource with economic value that an individual, corporation, or country owns or controls with the expectation that it will provide a future benefit. (https://www.investopedia.com/terms/a/asset.asp https://www.investopedia.com/terms/a/asset.asp) Maybe you should open your worldview a bit to see various ways on how you store value, not only the obvious financial instruments. But if you don't, no problem.
