bitcoin was a very poorly implemented solution to the need for internet cash so to speak ... one of the side effects of the many flaws is that it started appreciating in value ( which it was specifically designed NOT to do ) ... this appreciation caused investing which caused further appreciation and so on until it created an entire culture / cult of subhuman filth telling each other how they're all going to get rich by sending all their money to Chinese miners who in turn send all their money to Nvidia. these retards think they're rich because they own an asset "worth" such and such ... but it's only worth this much until you try to sell it. reality is if everybody who owns bitcoin tried to sell it they would get ZERO. the only way to sell BTC is by creating new idiots who will buy it from you, which is what the entire cult is about - manufacturing the greater fool to unload your bags to. bitcoin is worthless garbage. we need something like it, but it has to be implemented in a completely different way. only a genius like me could design something that would actually accomplish what bitcoin was SUPPOSED to do, which is be a means of exchange on the internet. we all know that is NOT what bitcoin is today. it also isn't a "store of value" as much as evangelists ( pumpers ) want you to think. and it was NEVER SUPPOSED TO BE a store of value. anybody "investing" in bitcoin is either a callous speculator or an IDIOT.
