The value of a coin can be increased in two ways:
- holding a great quantity of it, causing scarcity;
- make the coin circulate as more as possible;

Gold is held in vaults in great quantity, the dollar is circulating.

If everyone is just holding, bitcoin will not get used in daily life by masses, if circulation is elevated you can cause demand to grow exponentially.

I think circulation is the best way to guarantee a future to Bitcoin and a equal distribution of it.
