Why are the little green slips of paper in your wallet worth anything? Why is the little plastic card in your wallet worth anything?
Anything that someone is willing to take in trade for something you want has value. If no one is willing to give you anything of value for Bitcoin, it has no value. But they are, so it does.
Yeah, slick apples and oranges argument. Tangible verses digital. One would be better off investing in silver and gold coins than either the greens slips in ones wallet or some digital BS. I have friends who have x-amount of Bitcoins verses my silver and gold coins. I love the looks on their faces when I show them how I can touch, hold, and carry my silver and gold coins and then ask them to produce those Bitcoins they have and touch, hold, and carry them there Bitcoins. All they can do is grab their cellphones. lmao.

Because you can use them to pay your taxes.
