Did anyone ever get big into trading in Team Fortress 2 ?

Bitcoin always reminds me of the earbuds used to trade and price rare items in TF2 , early on in the trading scene a few members decided to accumulate massive amounts of this essentially free item. They coordinated to make it the official trading pair used on pricing sites and on all trading servers.

At some point really out of nowhere the community and all the pricing sites decided to switch to keys as the pricing mechanism for trading items (fiat in this world) , buds usefulness as a store of value almost completely crashed within the week.

I really feel like when USD trading pairs for all coins become the norm on all exchanges Bitcoin will die in a very short period of time.
