It’s not a freaking pikachu

It's more like gold than a currency though, because with currencies their actual value is referenced in the price, whereas with Bitcoin no merkin ever relies on its face value, instead demanding US$3000 (or whatever) worth of Bitcoin (rather than a set fraction of the Bitcoin) to unlock your wedding photos.

It'd be like if you bought something in Australia and the price was US$100 worth of Australian dollars. That would be a fair indicator of the reliability of Aussie dollars as a currency. So it goes with Bitcoin.

Isn’t that what I said? The value is based on the market demand for it? Not an underlying economy that dictates it’s value

Edit - which in a way is a contradiction but there’s are far larger economic scope in market demand for currency

Plus that cryptos in of themselves are more of a method of transferring finances as well as being a method of finance

What?

It’s not about bitcoin. It’s about the satoshi. There are 100,000,000 for every bitcoin. Now imagine a bitcoin is adopted as a currency in a country. And it will happen. Argentina could be the first. Imagine 1 satoshi is worth just 10cents. Do the math.

What do I look f**king Chinese to you? I don't do math.

What if it’s worth 1/1,000,000,000th of a cent ?

I got the first part right and have another 18 months. Still has to nearly double from what I predicted which is a big ask.

If it gets there do I officially rule? seeing I bought mine at $2500 Aussie?

18 months? ... 2020 starts in about 6 months

I'm glad someone else spotted Avy's sneakery.

Meh some people are happy to just get by. Work, meet friends for a steak or bbq the odd holiday and some love making. A few drinks and maybe a joint. Have their hobbies and just not take life that seriously.
I mean if I had a heap more money would I live any different?
Could get a better car, holidays and dining but lets be honest, it is still really the same shit. And you still die so really what is the point? Seems like a lot of stressing and giving a f**k about something for sake of it. But im a nihilistic merkin.

Yeah, no one should enjoy things unless they're things you also enjoy...

I plan to give it to the kids. I don’t need the money.

Yep. It's easy to say there's more important things than money. Wait until you have kids. Money might not buy happiness but having kids and not enough money is f**king miserable.
