Right now we determine the value of bitcoin by dollars, euros and other currencies, but if we remove all the currencies and use only Bitcoin how we can know what is the value of Bitcoin?
Do we need to use MBTC then?

In the absence of dollars or euros we would ask questions like...How many ounces of gold can a bitcoin purchase. How many bitcoin does the average house cost, How many pints of beer, etc.

As bitcoin develops more and more people will come to think of bitcoin's purchasing power in terms of real goods.

Well if the dollars and euros doesn't exist its really hard to tell the value of bitcoin but if that really happens then the goods in the will be priced as bitcoin like they will find a way to price it with bitcoin people tend to blind with something new if no other choice we need the MBTC on bitcoin to determine the value of bitcoin so that we can know how we earned and how much we payed for something that we needed.. thats only my opinion Cheesy

I guess that will not happen because the BTC is not real currency, while the dollar and the euro currency real and have a legal

they are never going to be removed because they are fiat and millions of people are using them and will continue using them.

but if it is removed we are back to stone ages and we would have to measure the value based on other objects. like how many animal skin does 1 bitcoin buy Cheesy

I asked the same question quite a while ago and I did not get a satisfying answer. Although one person said that if there was no fiat money as a determinant, we as a humans tend to attach the value of something to a commodity. If there was no fiat money, there is gold. If there is no gold and precious metals, there is the value of livestock or grains. It never stops.

i don't know how we can determine the value of bitcoin if fiat is not exist, but maybe we can use another thing like gold, silver or other commodity to compared with bitcoin. i think we can be like a primitive civilization that using exchange to make a deal from buyer and seller and maybe we can barter with gold to bitcoin.

let me ask you a question and if you can answer that question then you can answer your own question too.

if Dollars and Euros are removed how will you determine the value of groceries that you need to buy?

COST OF LIVING

imagine bitcoin was measured as WORLD AVERAGE cost of living.
where say it was 3.758*CoL  and exchanges done orders presented as

sell            buy
3.759 CoL   3.758 CoL
3.760 CoL   3.757 CoL
3.761 CoL   3.756 CoL
3.762 CoL   3.755 CoL

then every country can then use their minimum wage * 40 hours to get CoL and then multiply it by the CoL valuation

EG
UK (£7.20mw * 40)*3.758)= £1082
US ($7.25mw * 40)*3.758)= $1090


or more simply, measured by the hour
150.32 CoL Hours

sell                 buy
150.321 CoLh   150.320 CoLh
150.322 CoLh   150.319 CoLh
150.323 CoLh   150.318 CoLh
150.324 CoLh   150.317 CoLh

UK (£7.20mw * 150.320 CoLh)= £1082
US ($7.25mw * 150.320 CoLh)= $1090

that way everyone around the world has a fairer ability of purchase based on the circumstances of their local area.
plus arbitrage opportunities to use the stupidly hindered countries that abuse their citizens with low cost of living/minimum wage.

EG someone in cuba. can buy bitcoin for $7.52(equiv) and then sell them for US $1090 (raising cuba's standards of living via bitcoin)
and someone from USA can convert US$ for cuban fiat. and buy lots of bitcoin.

which can lead to cuba forced to raise its minimum wage once world arbitraging messes with the banks

Good question but I think we can measure it against other Altcoins and even commodities as Bitcoin itself is viewed partly a commodity. So it wouldn't be difficult unless there's nothing at all in this world except Bitcoin even with that we can measure it against the human beings present and get its value.

How do we get the value of USD  today.  We compare all other currencies with USD. Same will happen with bitcoins as all other currencies / altcoins will be compared to bitcoin as bitcoin will be the main currency. It has its own value just like USD has its own value.

the only way is to build and determined the value with the old good barter, slowly people will recognize more and more the true value of bitcoin in this way, if there were no fiat currency

the value will be determined by how much people are willing to offer for one btc, then you accept or not their offer, not that different from trading

How did you say that Dollars and Euros will be removed? It will not happen, there is no replacement will take place. We can not use Bitcoin alone so we should not abandon the fiat money. It doesn't mean that BTC was created we need to disregard the global currency.

well compare it with value of currency of your nation's currency and get the approximate value of bitcoin. or compare it with other countries currency and get a better result of the same. although 1 bitcoin will remain as 1 bitcoin regardless of its values as compared to other currencies.

We are using dollar an euro because most of people knew that currencies and it is used for world wide transaction, if Dollar and Euro don't exist then we will just point another currency to become the value exchange for bitcoin, if we are no longer using fiat then we will see what things we are using for purchasing things, if it is gold then we are using gold to measure bitcoin value

If fiar wouldn't exist there would be no need for bitcoin exchanges and you'd have to barter to get some. Because how would you get your hands on bitcoin if you couldn't mine it? There would have to be an exchange that would offer bitcoin for some other valuables like precious metals or art. You'd also be able to work for Bitcoin i guess and you and your boss would have to come up with an amount of coins he'd pay you per hour. This wouldn't be that hard as stores would have everything priced in bitcoin.

Do we need to use MBTC then?

The value of bitcoin will be based on other altcoins and commodities. Its like asking the value of dollars, if you can answer what gives value to the dollar then you can answer what will give value to bitcoin. The economy will dictate about the value of bitcoin against the value of the commodity. It is hard to determine it now but soon if we are already at that situation the economists of different countries will be the ones to agree on how to determine its value.

all these fiat currencies such as dollar and Euro is there to help us have a better and easier outlook over things.
for example if we say bitcoin is worth x Zimbabwean dollar majority of people won't understand what you mean. but Dollar and Euro is more global and easy to understand. you can change it to any other dominant currency or even use Gold if you want.

If you want to know the value of something you always compare it to something else. Money was invented also for the reason to have something we can all normal thing compare to. This made it also easy to compare the value of things with other things. currencies are very precise, but we can basically compare it to any thing else.

We'd judge the value based on how much it cost to buy a Big Mac at McDonalds of course. It is the best way to truly value a currency. See
