... It is relevant because the USD is deflationary and loses value over time. The Zimbabwe 100 trillion is gaining value because it is discontinued and a rarity item, and increased 700% the last 5 years where as the USD went down how much? So... Mebby we should let Bitcoin fail completely, and it would acquire value as a digital collectible? There's a real black swan disruptive technology paradigm shift right there, no? Thats the bitcoin value-trap. Who made up the value? only speculators and gamblers Artificial scarcity. Worked for BTCeanie BTCabies, will work for Bitcon

Bitcoin wont fail because the technology was revolutionary. But I cant argue with someone who says its worth .50 cents or someone else who ways 1 unit is worth 1 million dollars
Apparantly someone thought 10000 of them was worth a large pizza, and another person thought it was worth $1200 last spring

Kids, Deflationary means it gains in value, Inflationary means it loses value.. USD is inflationary prices rise because it loses value when more is printed..
Edit: maybe they should find an economist who gives lessons in crayon..
Play nice, I have to go to work now...

Bitcoin acquires value exactly like anything else--bread, tulip bulbs, SexCoin. The value of USD is not "set" by any authority (you're free to ask $1 or $1,000 for your BTCeanie). Speculative value is fine.

It survives the weekend. I will take this as a good sign. If it can rally to above 240 during the week then sub-200 is over for now. Congrats if you have managed to load up at 180-190.

Replace "Bitcoin" with "Steam engine", say it again and see if it still makes sense.

Speculative value is fine. That's technically true in a somewhat meaningless tautological sense, but highly disingenuous because the explicitly stated purpose of monetary policy via central banking is to produce intentional macroeconomic outcomes through manipulating money. Using the word "set" to describe the alleged mechanism is a strawman oversimplification of very basic facts.
