Even if you use Bitcoin through Tor, the way transactions are handled by the network makes anonymity difficult to achieve. Do not expect your transactions to be anonymous unless you really know what you're doing.

Different people generally mean different things when they write "backed by". You need to be careful to explain what you mean when you use the words "backed by".

For example, the words "backed by" mean something different in each of these:

  • The dollar is no longer backed by gold and Bitcoin is backed by nothing.
  • The dollar is backed by the full faith and credit of the U.S. government.
  • The dollar is backed by the U.S. military.
  • The dollar is backed by banks.
  • Bitcoin is backed by math.
  • Bitcoin is backed by the processing power of the network.
  • Bitcoin is backed by electricity.

I'm not sure any type of money has to be inherently valuable.  If two people decide that it represents something they've worked for, it's money.  I think the "represented by electricity and math" argument is kinda wrong.

If you think a while about it, it is rather scary that money is not backed by anything. That makes it purely speculative and you cannot stand on solid ground. Well, that is the way it is.

Both oxygen and water will cause cancer and kill a human. Bitcoin will be killed because of its long use of math and electricity.
Joke - I have no idea what this thread is about and why OP posted it...

bitcoins code is based on maths
bitcoins security of the code is based on electric and math
bitcoins emotional value is based on the security of funds(electric and math) and usefulness
bitcoins financial value is based on the speculation of emotional value and speculation

so bitcoin is backed by maths and electric.. but the financial value is a high percentage of speculation ontop the base value

Not everybody believes in the holy ghost, but almost the entire world believes in the value of money.
That is what makes the world go around.  Smiley

It's nothing funny about this, it's very true. Satoshi knew exactly what to do and applied it perfectly. This is why Bitcoin is so popular.

It's funny, but at the same time it is so true. To mine you need electricity and Bitcoin is pretty much based on maths.
