    so what can you do with it? can you actually buy shit? what if everyone who owns bitcoin tries to cash out at once? is this just a massive ponzi scheme but in crypto form?

    • yeah, with stocks you can sort of gauge the companies success, follow the industry, see what moves they're making and sort of predict where a stock could go but_niko
    • with bitcoin it's 100% speculation I think, can go up or down unpredictably with no rhyme or reason. An ecconomist told me, could be $600k next year could be $0_niko

    • It's like gold, but with no uses. If you buy 1 coin now, you are hoping in the future people will buy it for the same value or higher. You hope it stores value.shapesalad
    • If people keep coming to bitcoin, if Wall St keep pouring money into it, you will see growth.shapesalad
    • There comes a point when enough people have money in it, expect value from it, that it can't go to zero.shapesalad
    • gold has a materializable value bitcoin does now. and it still can go zero, since its only "value" is that your trust in it.sted
    • Predict future, win prizes. Very simple concept.nb
    • a simple glitch leads to a loss of consumer confidence, and that drags down the price to the basement,sted
    • since there is no physical value or economy that would sustain it.sted
    • Gold can’t disappear from existence in the blink of an eye.monospaced
