Please explain how bitcoin is valued
As I understand it, there are currently about 20million bitcoins outstanding out of a maximum 21 million. If the currently value of a bitcoin is, say $100,000, that would mean the total value of outstanding bitcoin is about 2 trillion dollars. Is there actually 2 trillion dollars on deposit somewhere to redeem all the bitcoin in a crisis? It seems to me any asset could only be called a stable asset if it is fully backed up.
Just wondering.
