Imagine sitting a till for 45 minutes waiting for your transaction to be included in a block so you can pay for your groceries but bitcoin crashes during that time and you have to spend eight times as much bitcoin as you did when you walked in the store.

Imagine being so fucking retarded as to think people will tolerate that and that bitcoin has a future.

Read history. This is Dutch tulips l, with the added benefit of not being a flower.

Or Twitter stock

Or bre x stock.

It's a thing to buy low and sell high. Or whine about doing it backwards.

Just because you exploit it similarly does not make it the same thing.

Sorry you feel that way. All stores of value, subject to ups and downs. Literally all the same in any way that matters. That's how arbitrage works. The Dutch tulips craze is borderline perfect comparison for Bitcoin. Completely valueless. Until enough people change their mind. Then it's a roaring trade. Until people change their minds again.
