What are apple stocks useful for? What can you do with them, other then buy and sell.
Bitcoin is like the best stock ever:
- You can send/trade them with other people without a trusted third party involved.
- You can store them on a paper, usb-stick, computer, mobile, table, in your brain.
- You can easy launder bitcoins to make them fully anonymous
- You can actually directly buy stuff, though its not that wide-spreaded yet
- Like gold, its not bind to something. Stocks is always bind to the value of a company.
- You dont need a freaking bank or whatever company to buy bitcoin, you can buy them anonymously on the street
- etc
