Curious about something if anyone here might know...I read somewhere in this forum something about the value of btc being coded in the math, that it can always be known how much it will be worth and how it will increase in value due to the code or whatever and that it's coded to increase exponentially. If that's knowable because of the code itself then why all the speculation?
This is wrong. The value comes from the demand to have value in reserve, from the actors in the market. I happen to think that bitcoin is an excellent store of value, so I want to have some of my reserves in bitcoin.
