[QUOTE="Allen, post: 161478, member: 389"] I would agree with anyone who said I don't understand crypto. Shit's just miraculously made out of thin air, and it has value? One of the original attractions to bitcoin was as a means to pay for illegal stuff with a very difficult to track method. Successful for sure in the early years (which we are still in), but to think something that gets registered on a computer as its ownership changes digitally is simple folly. There's always a digital trail. Bottomline, crypto is backed by its demand. The U.S. dollar is backed by the U.S. taxpayers. In economics I learned that demand can be finicky, the U.S. taxpayer has been solid for well over 200 years. I just can't find a reason to buy any of it. [/QUOTE]
