I'm new to the Bitcoin / Cryptocurrency world, and the economics are pretty interesting.. My Wink

;)question is more of a large-scale economics question.

Would using Bitcoins, to purchase goods (not on this forum) or services, increase its perceived value due to wider exposure or level-out/decrease its perceived value by establishing an accepted value of it?

I hope that was clear enough. Just looking for ideas and thoughts.

Hi hairballin! I'm just a bit confused with your introduction. You said you're new to the bitcoin and cryptocuurency world, yet you stated in your quote below your activity count that you're "an experienced technical writer, altcoin trader." Quite contradictory...lol! Anyways, as far as I know, the general rule in the market value of things is, the higher the demand, the higher will be the value..simply put. Just like a professional who offers his service, when he gets recommended or referred to others more often, then he could partially increase his fee due to the trust that is being built. Same thing with bitcoin, the more people use it-the higher the demand-the value rises. Quite similar to a popularity contest so to speak..

Thanks for the insight! And I am new. But I have technical writing experience and I just started trading altcoins. Diving in the deep end to learn as much as I can I suppose.
