@UncleIroh bitcoin used as currency is what it was supposed to be, but what we have now is just bitcon as a form of market item of investor speculation but nobody is using it as currency
@37712@UncleIroh It fails as a currency in every important aspect it needed to: no portability, no security, no privacy, high transaction cost and intrinsic counterparty risk.
It's a great speculative asset though because it has inbuilt insane volatility.
