Completely agree, For me, I usually use BTC's within a limited period after getting them so not getting this benefit but I still like seeing the balance of my old BTC addresses in blockchain.info having transacted thousands of dollars in today's value (while the TX'd value is actually few hundreds or less at time), Starting to keep BTC's now to get that kind of benefit with the price surging quickly.
Investment in Bitcoin is the best idea currently and so I'm convinced that's what drew a lot of people to Bitcoin. It's one of the many virtues that I love bitcoin. Bitcoin serves me as my own bank and gives me access to the blockchain 24/7 to access my funds from my wallet. It provides good avenue for gambling among others.
