Bitcoin is anything but a currency since bonafide currencies cannot exhibit such crazy price volatility
Anything or even concepts can be currencies. Currencies are only tokens. Tokens are derivatives. Derivatives typically exhibit wild valuations when the benchmark being used is a derivative itself, like the federal reserve note. The author is trapped into the false idea that Federal reserve notes are stable. They are everything but stable. The supply is wildly manipulated and thus their value typically goes up and down based on monetary policies, demand and supply.
Bitcoin is anything but an asset which could be considered a store of wealth
The federal reserve note is not a store of wealth either. Because it's a derivative and is subject to the whims of monetary policy and market demands.
Bitcoin is wholly dependent on the existence of the Internet.
I've been saying this for a long time. It's wrapped up in a complex system of computer nodes and networks, requires enormous computer power and actually takes quite a long time to settle when these interconnected nodes are busy. This is a huge weakness the federal reserve note does not share.
it is based on a classic Ponzi-Pyramid scheme
Again, no different than the federal reserve note. The government enjoys the lift it momentarily gets as it counterfeits currency to enable its worldwide tyranny at the expense of people holding federal reserve notes.
And the author rambles on making assertions, some of which are true, some assertions are silly.
His conclusion?
Bitcoiners are perhaps the most deluded and obsessed group of addicts in world financial history.
Actually, holders of federal reserve notes are the most deluded group because they don't understand it's a jewish trick. Since they were born with it, it seems totally natural.
the biggest aspect of this CRYPTO CON commenced when the banksters decided to issue Bitcoin EFTs.
No, it's just more deception. A Bitcoin ETF is just an ETF of an ETF. This is pretty common. A federal reserve note is the same. Nixon really fucked us over in 1971 by removing gold as the underlying asset in the federal reserve note. This makes the federal reserve note an ETF where the underlying asset doesn't even exist. Bitcoin is the same here.
