i'm not sure why or how comparing it to facebook makes any sense. bitcoin is not a corporation or company.

Well lets see here, Facebook again has the market value of 130+ B. Much of that money comes from people wanting to do a thing called investing, they do this to make money. Are you with me still? These investors have valued the company at 130B which I think is crazy, I hate Facebook and if I could put a value on it id say $5B, seems a bit more appropriate and this is just ONE COMPANY. Like you said yourself bitcoin isn't a company, its much much larger than that.

well, no shit it's an investment. but one's a corporation, and another is a store of value. you don't see anyone comparing gold to facebook, do you? look at you, throwing arbitrary numbers (based on nothing) for what facebook is worth.
