It's a math based currency and easily kept anonymous, unlike government based currency.

I trust it because it is not the euro or US dollar.

Yep, I trust Bitcoin because I do not have to trust anyone if I do not want to.

"I trust Bitcoin because it does not require trust."
Hehe, well said.

Well actually, it depends on trusting mathematical principles, rather than trusting people. The latter has proven to be less reliable uncountable times.

In theory, there's no difference between theory and practice. In practice, there is.

 I don't even trust the NYSE

Math is math but human behavior causes the swings.

I never thought my life could be. Anything but catastrophe. But suddenly I begin to see. A "BIT" of good luck for me. Cause I've got a golden ticket!

I carefully read Satoshi Nakamoto's paper and understand the security guarantees of the algorithms involved.
