the network has properties that attracts users (scarce supply, known inflation rate, decentralized and peer to peer network) and network valuation is proportional to the number of interconnections within it (which is approximately the square of the number of users)

I don’t find this concerning at all

the value is based on being money where the supply and issuance is not controlled by oligarchs

person A holds their wealth in dollars (down 6% on the year)

person B holds their wealth in bitcoin (up 110% on the year)

one is preserving their wealth with a capped supply, the other has to hope sleepy joe and elizabeth warren dont print trillions more every single year

good luck lol
