To my son Anon, I leave these: a box of mint-condition 1918 liberty-head silver dollars. You see, back in those days, rich men would ride around in Zeppelins, dropping coins on people, and one day I seen J.D. Rockefeller flying by. So I run of the house with a big washtub and... hey! Where are you going? Anyway, about my washtub. I'd just used it that morning to wash my turkey, which in those days was known as...a walking-bird. We'd always have walking-bird on Thanksgiving, with all the trimmings: cranberries, injun eyes, yams stuffed with gunpowder. Then we'd all watch football, which in those days was called baseball... Eh, why didn't you get something useful, like storm windows, or a nice pipe organ? I'm thirsty! Ew, what smells like mustard? There sure are a lot of ugly people in your neighborhood. Ooh, look at that one. Ow, my glaucoma just got worse. The president is a Democrat! Hello? I can't unbuckle my seat belt. Hello? (honks car horn) (entering the house) There are too many leaves in your walkway...

BTC and cryptocurrencies will always be worth more than any FIAT or metal, because there is no bank or jew that can get its hands in-between transferring cryptocurrencies, thus it is the only way we can get rid of the jews because they can no longer profit from it.

And they have confidence in it because it is secure and better than Gold.

Only a matter of time til they mine it and dump on you.
Can‘t do that with BTC because only 21 million exist.
Can‘t create more.

>you can touch it see it
Thats not an advantage, can be easily stolen, is hard to transact, is hard to transport.
BTC is better in all of that.

So what?
Soon BTC can be used for all kinds of smart contracts.
Then it is truly superior. Who cares if its not used as resource as long as it fullfills its role better than gold?

Perhaps you should go back and read it. It’s allow real world data to be transferred to on and off chain, this theoretically speed up the death of btc since btc can’t do that. With many problems btc is facing as long as it not solved and a better and fast blockchain comes out people will be using that over btc. it probably will spell doom to all crypto project since you don’t need a public ledger.
