Potential... that was my point -- that in a discussion about the present-day utility of bitcoin, unrealized potential does not apply.
Isn't that just about the
entire point of
speculating in something? You hope that the future value will be higher. If the potential was fully realised now, that would not happen.
That's when it's time to sell.
Any discussion about speculating in price movements has everything to do with unrealised potential as compared to present day utility.
So you admit that BTC has unrealised potential then?
Ding ding ding... time to buy.
Speculation is counter productive and wrong. If everyone just tried their best to use bitcoin and tell others about the benefits, we would all make way more money than by speculating.
