you can store it in batteries

it's fungible

Oil is going down

you can transfer it

many of those can be debunked easily with: correlation does not imply causation

it has immediate value

Elec is going up

`Like $ being tied to oil`
thats not true

The dollar is tied to oil

It does have value but, how does a 'normal person' produce it?

cats

Without working in a plant

or having their own solar panels, etc, etc

You can get on a bike and produce electricity.

That's true - but enough to make it valuable?

How does a office worker make money without working in a gold mine or an oil rig

Because labour has value

Yes, and labor can produce electricity.

And labour can be traded

I think I will make a bike that can charge a battery.

The concept is workable

I think it will be like that

@Undead Mockingbird someone has

@Ronano credit card

No physical currency

Energy credits

In the end, only energy has value.

Big reform

@Undead Mockingbird yes

This is like that Black Mirror episode

Oil-energy

If you eat food, it's to create energy.

Gold-labour-energy

If you pay someone, you pay them to exert energy and spend time.

Just make energy currency then. Go the the roots

Energy is the ultimate value in the universe.

That's true, but people usually differentiate the 'type' of energy based on its context
