How is Bitcoin $20000 or even $100,000 if it is controlled by a handful of whales that own thousands individually?

Don’t get me wrong, I love the tech and principle behind it.

The whole point of Bitcoin was to be decentralized. If I had say 20,000 bitcoins and I put them on sell on some exchange for cheap, the whole price of Bitcoin comes crashing down.

Someone please tell me how it is valuable when a bunch of jerkoffs got lucky hodling since 2011? It should be $0. #Bitcoin

Full disclosure: I own 5.

    I still don’t understand how something like bitcoin can be valuable when anyone can create a new variant of bitcoin any day.

    • Money shouldn't have intrinsic value. I don't understand why people don't get that. Money is just a representation of value.

      people talking about gold n Fiat intrinsic value, u cant clone another metal like gold n set the limited supply, fiat intrinsic value is that it's backed by the government, Bitcoin as such doesnt have any value or any usecase exception of the technology underneath it, that's the value not the Bitcoin itself, it's the pets.com of blockchain tech. anybody can clone n create alternate limited supply coin like Bitcoin, ico here to stay, coins will be valuable provided they have an usecase, but certainly Bitcoin isn't the one. Market cap currently is fuelled by fancy digital name n greedy people jumping on the bandwagon to make quick cash in a month

    Those who don’t get it, you really need to educate yourself. I feel really sorry for you if you don’t understand it. It’ll cause you to sell the greatest invention in mankind at $50k or $100k.

    Go read and listen to Robert Breedlove, Preston Pysh, Vijay Boyaparti, Nick Szabo.

    All the information is there. This is a wealth transfer to anyone who is curious and willing to learn. Ignore at your own peril. The train is leaving the station.

    No matter what the intentions behind it at the time of creation, it’s a pyramid scheme now. It’s value propelled only by new people buying into it and making early adopters even richer. Unlike a stock, it doesn’t add economic value by itself. I am all for staying away from it.

    It's been around for a decade and still hasn't gained any significant chuck of is primary market - money transfers.
    The whole value of bitcoin right now is FADy speculation, aka gambling.
    What did you expect?

      Hey you have not used it doesn’t mean it doesn’t exist… BTC is my first choice to do international transfers. Faster, cheaper, and easier than making an international wire transfer in banks
