      Bitcoin only has that value.

      Everything else has actual value without the obvious drawback of wasting massive amounts of electricity to make a number that means nothing.

      If bitcoin had real value it wouldn’t need a bunch of sad dudes to defend it online. No other type of investment needs that to stay relevant and valuable.
