Sure Snowshow has been attempting to adapt his various arguments too in order to describe the many ways that he believes bitcoin does not have any value and his claims that it is one BIG scam - while at the same time, he ends up contributing to show how vacuous his various arguments because we have actual real word evidence showing that bitcoin goes way beyond the various ways that he says that it does not do anything or that it is just one BIG scam.
Im not sure how to evaluate this situation anymore, we’re reaching psychological phenomena territory. Where someone wants to protect themselves so hard from scams, that they cant see the wood for the trees anymore. And then they actually missed the time where something wasn’t a scam, because they turned blind and unreceptive to any argument/ evidence. Maybe its some form of paranoia. Or maybe this person wants to feel so smart that they could never fall for a scam and then just refuse anything that could potentially scam them, which in turn leads to overprotectiveness and dumb decisions.

So yeah it does seem that Snowshow has been trying to appeal to a variety of concepts (such as money) that he either does not really understand or he is just vaguely and selectively referring to a variety of concepts to make it appear that bitcoin has no value because it does not fit into his frameworks and bitcoin is confusing.. which admittedly bitcoin is confusing when any of us dive into it and attempt to understand all aspects of it.
It is and i wouldnt blame someone for not getting it or finding it confusing, but this is different from someone who thinks hes dealing with cultists, scammers and fools. And refuses to listen to anything or answer anything that he doesnt like. Doesnt realise that it could also be, that he is simply wrong, and millions of people are not here to take anything from him or creating nice sounding stories to fool people.

Wow.  You look pretty foolish yourself Snowshow.  Sure it is possible that tadamichi might be wrong about some of his assessments of various ways that bitcoin brings value or potentially brings value to the world or to himself, but you show yourself to completely be lacking in imagination or even abilities to attempt to think through a problem - beyond just repeating what you have repeatedly been saying in regards to the ONLY way that bitcoin has value is because other people have to want it or buy into it. 
Im not claiming everyone can/ will make use exactly like this, but for someone who is interested in how things work, Bitcoin is like a gold mine of knowledge, where you get introduced to many different topics and can see them live in action. It actually introduced me personally to some topics for the first time and challenges me to try to understand them. Even if it disappeared tomorrow it will still be something people that people can learn from. And to me personally knowledge is priceless, i value it more then if some soulless company that pays me 3% in dividends or whatever.  I wouldnt undervalue the education aspect of Bitcoin, no other investment comes close to this depth in my opinion, thats why i highlighted it so strongly. Just to show whats possible, without even having sold anything.

Bitcoin might be the only money that requires people to actually understand it, to see its real utility, Fiat and Gold didnt have this barrier as much. Maybe people are still thrown into cold water, because theyre not used to this. Central authorities used the shortcut of force, so people will just use what they dont understand. If people use a money that they really have to understand, because it will be adopted voluntarily, it could change a lot.

It's crazy how vehemently you ignore this simple and only relevant fact and just write endless rants about completely irrelevant things.
The funny thing is that there is no scheme, we saw the markets trading Bitcoin forming naturally, late after the invention. In accordance with economic theories about how money comes into existence and gains it value, that is the remarkable thing. Probably nothing, just an investment scam.

There are no transactions.
There are, 3300 just happened last block.

A transaction is the exchange of resources.
Barter is over and were not using cows as money anymore.

There's no money. Money is a resource.
So prove it.

There's no Peer-to-Peer Electronic Cash System.
So theyre all running and connecting to imagination?

Electronic cash or money is representation of an already existing money.
I forgot that you wrote the requirements for this.

So, you're just repeating language manipulation that Nakamoto used in Bitcoin Whitepaper.
You attempted to bend concepts/ definitions many times now, you lost the right to make any accusations about this.
