I am not implying that you're all idiots for holding bitcoin. I am implying that you act like idiots. Being an idiot and acting like one are two different things. Under extreme emotional pressure(greed) or due to ignorance, even intelligent people can act very idiotically. Those that would give you a nice meal for some BTC (worthless record) are good example of such behavior.
So we are greedy and we act like fools.
So where is the proof that bitcoin's "Real" Value is zero?
What gives anything its "Value"
I would argue that financial value can be easily proven through the market. Even if we were all greedy fools, then bitcoin still has value.
Define the word "Empirically" and you will find that it contradicts your whole argument. Things proven empirically are things proven in the real world, not based on logic or theory.
Your argument is a theory based argument.
It's almost as old as bitcoin. You are all greedy fools and bitcoin is worthless.
But empirically I have bought and sold things using bitcoin.
I have eaten my lunch at work using bitcoin and I have worked (a little bit) for bitcoin.
Empirically bitcoin has value and that value is not zero.
If empirically the value of bitcoin was zero, you wouldn't mind giving me 100,000 Bitcoins for $100 since you'd be able to get 100,000 Bitcoins for 0 dollars.
So prove it to me. Send me 100,000 Bitcoins.
Oh what, you can't?
That's right because I just proved you to be a total "can't" no offence given to can't with a U either.
Edit: Changed "Bitcoin'" to "Bitcoin's"
Edit 2: Changed "do" to "to" in "to be a total"
