It only has transfer value if it has utility. If say, a business offered transactions in bitcoin it was probably because it was backed by exchange to currency

2018-10-02 00:55:29 UTC  

It's not entirely just confidence in the government

2018-10-02 00:55:34 UTC  

open source, anyone can contribute: the code says there's only 21 million

2018-10-02 00:55:41 UTC  

Even if the government vanished overnight, people would still accept USD.

2018-10-02 00:55:56 UTC  

Even if they didn't they would accept gold

2018-10-02 00:56:05 UTC  

I was about to post a whole criticism to tim but now I'm wondering if I want to get into a debate

2018-10-02 00:56:12 UTC  

With anyone rn

2018-10-02 00:56:14 UTC  

Lol

2018-10-02 00:56:19 UTC  

😂

2018-10-02 00:56:19 UTC  

Post it in debate

2018-10-02 00:56:21 UTC  

What a giant waste of time

2018-10-02 00:56:23 UTC  

Go for it

2018-10-02 00:56:27 UTC  

USD represents a share in the valuation of US goods and labor.

2018-10-02 00:56:45 UTC  

That's the trust aspect of it.

2018-10-02 00:56:53 UTC  

yes, and the USD is being printed at the whims of politicians to bail out banks during financial crisis

2018-10-02 00:57:02 UTC  

Right.

2018-10-02 00:57:04 UTC  

Which devalues the currency, you'll note

2018-10-02 00:57:06 UTC  

while you suffer inflation

2018-10-02 00:57:30 UTC  

It's not consequence-less

2018-10-02 00:57:40 UTC  

And it's because the utility of the currency lowers

2018-10-02 00:57:56 UTC  

the US dollar used to be good for gold, now i can redeem it for trust in God 😂

2018-10-02 00:58:26 UTC  

But if you cannot expect your currency to be commonplace, for its acceptance to be assumed, then it is based on exchange to a standard that is

2018-10-02 00:58:33 UTC  

not saying it's not doing good. I wish I had bought more in 2009 at 1:1 😛

2018-10-02 00:58:35 UTC  

That's why people are trading for it

2018-10-02 00:58:45 UTC  

Bitcoin is only as valuable as what you can buy with it.

2018-10-02 00:58:55 UTC  

a'ight

2018-10-02 00:59:07 UTC  

when your friends get lambos, dont come cryin' 😂

2018-10-02 00:59:23 UTC  

Condescension does NOT look good on you. Just saying.

2018-10-02 00:59:29 UTC  

lambos is a term used in crypto for getting rich

2018-10-02 00:59:38 UTC  

No

2018-10-02 00:59:51 UTC  

Lambos is a shortening of "Lamborghini', tool.

2018-10-02 00:59:55 UTC  

lol

2018-10-02 00:59:59 UTC  

Always has been.

2018-10-02 01:00:00 UTC

2018-10-02 01:00:09 UTC

2018-10-02 01:00:14 UTC

2018-10-02 01:00:14 UTC  

some douchebag

2018-10-02 01:00:38 UTC

2018-10-02 01:00:44 UTC
