So let's say BTC was to be absolutely frozen from here on at todays price ,would you still buy?
I don't think BTC was intended as the speculation tool it has turned into .
Who on here regularly makes purchases using BTC ?
It depends. If only the price is frozen, but lending, staking and DeFi still exist, yes, I will buy it to make more money.
There are many other ways to gain value besides the dollar crypto price.
