Why would it be traitorous? Bitcoin's value is dictated by USD. That's a fact. You can believe in Bitcoin and still look at it in terms of USD. That's how it's going to be for as long as Bitcoin remains an alternative means of payment. You can't gauge its value otherwise.
But hey, if you're willing to buy a burger for 2 Bitcoins, I have a few I'd like to sell you.
I just realized that my thread is pointless. I should delete it, but I will keep it here as a lesson to future posters.
