None of that addresses any of my points. Yes of course there is a finite supply of bitcoin and thus it is inherently deflationary. That's a good thing for hoarders, and the current volatility is great for speculators. I'm not seeing any key advantages for the average consumer, not until they're paid in bitcoin and there are similar financial services as today. But then what has really changed?
