$20 of BTC always buys the same amount specialty philately accessories despite what the "market" of being a middle man of a currency that only has use with steam games and the underworld would suggest, so who gives a gently caress

The Bitcoin market is literally just a reflection of the drug market. I bet if you told a bunch of Xanax riddled bar babies they could let their computer do a little bit of a central banks work and it would earn them pennies, they would because they are the lazy, addictive and impulsive demographic this poo poo markets to.

Peace :2bong:

God job actually cashing out into something useful. Someone could have millions of tokens of a cryptocurrency but none of it matters if they cant trade their virtual tokens for actual real money.

But what if they were just going to spend that money on bunk acid and the arms trade?? Huh? Cuts out the middle man. Learn economics, kid

Want me to rub your back softly and whisper sweet nothings in your ear, or do you want the truth?

If I wanted to buy a meal with Bitcoin, I can't just walk to the store and do that, but I can do that with the USD

If I wanted to pay for my child's education, I couldn't do it with Bitcoin

If I wanted to liquidate my assets in Bitcoin to actually do the things you can't do with Bitcoin, it's a long, pain in the rear end process
