What you actually mean is, you buy it, hoping it will go up in price. That's not a store of value, it's a ponzi scheme.

Imagine you move some of your money from your cold wallet to your hot wallet and make a purchase. That night criminals come in, torture you, take the contents of your hot wallet. Check transaction histories, find out how much money you have in total in your cold wallet. Torture you for your net worth.

Cool system!

ACH transfers are designated for mass payments to reduce fees. If you want faster payment then use wire transfer, which have much lower fees than bitcoin tx fees nowadays.
Also after the coins are mined, bitcoin will become centralized since it'll rely on a small amount "miners" who can charge you whatever enormous fees they want since only retards want to run a power hogging machine for free. Don't like it? Build your own expensive transaction processors that will take a few megawatts to process your own transaction.

This is why you buy monero. The only crypto with a true use case (even if most of that use case is illegal shit, that's just even more bullish). The fact that they want to ban it coupled with atomic swaps makes it a no brainer. True privacy.

Instant transactions, deflationary and invulnerable. Nocoiners are always coping and seething (and dilating) because they didn't buy.

Bitcoin and a few of the other main cryptocurrencies have two purposes:
1. Money laundering
2. Speculator gambling and those who feed off them
As a money laundering system it’s revolutionized criminal trading and markets. Sone people do make money off of the speculators: service providers in the crypto industry and Chinese ASIC developers and farm operators. The market is 100% speculative gambling and if you play it you’re likely going to lose whatever you make. So, use crypto, and just look at the costs and time lag as paying a fee for a money laundering service. Playing the market is for suckers and mining outside of China is for retards who think they can print money but who are in fact absolute retards: buy ASICs the Chinese have already mined the best value from just so you can give money to the service providers and power company. Chinese are making a killing of these drooling morons it’s actually offensive to me there are people that dumb in this country.
