To further support the video the OP put up, watch this one from the 10 min mark to learn just how much bitcoin you need to carry as your hedge against inflation.

I have never bought any bitcoins, and this thread has not changed my mind about them.

I am not a joiner

Trying to discuss "What is Money" with people is like trying to discuss with a 5 year old why cookies are bad for you.

I predict the Russian Ruble will be 1:1 with the USD within 2 years

Bitcoin is a Ponzi scheme. Too volatile to serve as a medium of exchange or store of value. A solution in search of problem that wastes enormous amounts of electricity to solve mathematical puzzles. Will eventually settle at its intrinsic value - 0.

Very interesting talk and concepts. I understand what he's saying, but I guess I'm old fashioned enough to prefer owning something with intrinsic value of some kind.

Bitcoin can be explained in 2 words. "Financial Sovereignty" It is really no more complicated than that.

Ultimately I expect it to go down to near $3,850 sometime early next year which was the COVID low before all the money printing accelerated everything. After that, it will take about a year or so to get back to its ATH again.

I do think it is a near certainty that it goes below $10k. But I do expect it will go down below $5k.

That is a bold call, it'll be interesting to see if it happens. I might just save up some $$ and start buying if it falls below $10K or so.
