Topic: 100 reasons why bitcoin is the best currency today - page 4. (Read 3057 times)
okay, people might not be happy with me saying this.. but bitcoin is inherently a deflationary asset... which means value should continue to rise. the problem with that is not enough money is going to be encouraged for spending, which makes it a bad "currency." i'm not saying that it's not a currency, all im saying is that it's a quasi currency.. it can be spent to purchase goods, but it does not have all the qualities that are required to be considered a true "standalone currency."
