There was a short lived belief system in tulips as well. What back it? just a belief system in being wealthy

So the belief from an old, completely different age, which people today can't relate, continues, and is being challenged in a completely different age by a new belief.

BTC is now a new belief system in something of value from a different age, the technological age. One can buy and sell gold with a belief system in technology and storage. Luddites I think that one of the Bills call those don't believe in any change, like some religions.

Still the same with bitcoin. . you can buy and sell it with a belief in technology system.

You as a human, judge and value everything from your individual belief system. No different, especially when the concept of wealth is conceptually linked with monetary amounts.

You make a compelling argument. Therefore I believe the US Government should sell all of its gold and use the proceeds to purchase Bitcoin. This will save the taxpayer so much money by eliminating the tremendous cost of storing and protecting our Gold stockpiles.
