"Bitcoin's intrinsic value is the amalgamation of the platform, its users, and its development."
I don't agree.There are many other attempts to create a cryptocurrency before, but all of them failed. Do you know why?
Because they were centralized. Bitcoin was the first truly decentralized.Actually, you do agree. You agree that the intrinsic value of Bitcoin comes from its "platform" because you state that Bitcoin is successful because it is decentralized.
Well, I agree with that. However I don´t agree with this statement, which I quoted:
Now I know some other more famous crypto influencers have mentioned things like decentralization, cost of production, etc., but I think those things are a means to an end and not the endgoal themselves. Like decentralization is for the purpose of censorship resistance and fraud prevention.
Decentralization is the end, not "the means to an end."
The whole goal of bitcoin is to create an independent monetary system..
