I hear from many sources that btc is used for trading much more than it is for goods and services; doesn't that make it an asset ??
and is that necessarily a bad thing ?? and what can we do about it as a community ??
For me, bitcoin is still a currency, it just so happens that it's volatility range allows it to be profitable which makes it an asset for a person. Many people consider it as an asset because they hold it, but the thing is it is not the process of holding that makes it an asset, it is the cycle of buying and selling to earn more that makes it an asset.
