The average bit coin user appears to
1. have no idea what money actually is
2. have a strong predicament against govermental control in general
3. prefer rationalization over reason, i.e. invents reasons for things he wants to be true like "bit coin's intrinsic value lies in the energy needed to mine it" while discarding obvious counter arguments like "the intrinsic value of my shit is the same whether I press hard or not at all"
4. Have little to no understanding of what constitutes real economic value
Anything else I missed?
1. That applies to most people. However, Bitcoin users tend to know more about money and economic value than most people.
2. Yes, hopefully.
3. A rational person would say that "intrinsic" value doesn't exist, so arguments about the intrinsic value of anything are moot.
