I don't see Bitcoin going to zero. After all, Holland still exports 3 billion dollars in tulips every year. A single high end tulip bulb is still worth about $4.00. That, of course, doesn't help someone who traded a house for a single tulip bulb in 1637.

Turkey might make hard money and take over the world. Some Islamic rules say interest shall not be charged. That means money needs to hold value or gain = no quantitative easing Magic Money Tree swindling dilution bullshit.

VVV includes solid money.

Mad Monetary Mining Technology MMMT is not hard money. Vast electricity consumption has to be paid for. That's a tax on money. Bitcoin management is too expensive. And slow.

With centralised mining, bitcoin isn't even peer to peer. It's peer, to mining centre with government tax man supervising it, to peer. Bitcoin was unintentionally designed to fail.

Bitcoin has the same relationship to money as a naughty weekend does to marriage.

It's doubtful that Turkey is doing it right. They could, but won't. But people can turn on a dime and adopt full VVV. Royalty-free.

"European Central Bank President Christine Lagarde in January took aim at Bitcoin’s role in facilitating criminal activity, saying"... that's been a carefully nurtured monopoly that bankers have guarded jealously over these many centuries... corrupting legislatures and Kings to make our crimes legal... and we're not about to surrender that benefit to upstart competitors doing a better job of it than we have been doing any time soon...
