Not everyone lives the life you live. Consider Bitcoin use among Russian dissidents, Belarussian protestors, Venezuelan professors, Afghan women entrepreneurs, Nigerian feminists, and North Korean revolutionaries.
At present, Bitcoin may have no utility for you, but you are not the only use case.

- alex_lav 3y ago> Curious if you'd be willing to share what percentage of your net worth is tied up specifically in BTC?
- infamouscow 3y agoWhen the entire argument has been refuted and there's nothing left but fallacious appeals to motive, I tend to move on rather than engage in pathetic and embarrassing rhetoric. I'd be happy to share if you're be equally willing to share what percentage of your net worth is not tied up specifically in Bitcoin and explain what it has to do with any of the rebuttals provided.
- alex_lav 3y agoTells me all I need to know about both of our collective confidence in bitcoin :) Enjoy the day!
