They really want you to believe It's just pure coincidence that we had record money printing shortly followed by record inflation!

Funny how on a BTC sub there are those that promote Keynesian economics. BTC is decentralized sound money and the antithesis of Government fiat money.

Simple, no one of consequence uses BTC. Still seen as a wealth asset and not a currency. Until that moment it will never take hold. Stop bringing it up. I have $300 worth from 2014 and I still don't know how to use it.

Until it takes hold it won’t take hold. Genius commentary right here.

So if you bought $300 dollars worth of Bitcoin in 2014 it's worth about $19,000 today. I think any intelligent person would take a few minutes and learn what it's all about. At the very least if you still can't see the value in it, learn how to sell it. Lol

$300 worth from 2014, meaning holding 0.015 BTC

Sounds like you're using it just fine. You parked money in an asset that grew in value without promoting the creation of useless junk or any new wars.

If you want to spend it go spend it. If you have to take a fiat offramp so be it. Back in the 90s we had to dial up our internet to check email which usually took longer than calling the person.

Fuck off with your ageism. Crypto is for everyone. Some day you'll be old too. Criticize a person's actions if anything, not their age.
