Of course it has value. Bitcoin can buy things or has value if exchanged in turn for other materials. The best part is it also has amazing profits for the investors and you can make transactioons anywhere in the world in  a heartbeat.

Bitcoin has a value. Direct means of using bitcoins won't give you any value. There is no physical transaction involved. The value of bitcoin can be measured by its worth of transmission of "Ownership". Unlike propertey or food , bitcoin has a non zero value without existing.

When someone trust to something, it will turn into something valuable if more people more trust on it.There're may some qualification that lead into something valuable. For bitcoin, it become valuable if it has function that everybody around the world can use them for their need.

So it depend on how much trust that bitcoin got to gain the actual value

I would make multiple votes if I could, it has value because people believe it is valuable. It has value because peoples time and expense creating it is valuable. Pushed to make one vote mine was it is valuable because people believe it is valuable.

If a lot of people believe in something and value it, it ofcourse develops its own value. For example, let's take one of the classic situation... A lot of people believe in God regardless of any proof of the existence of God. It gives them hope and it surprisingly, also ends up creating a lot of job opportunities of people Tongue If a lot of people believe in something, it always ends up having a value. Therefore, bitcoin= Very valuable.

None of the above.

Bitcoin has value because it is useful.

Bitcoin has no inherent value. Cost for creation and time doesn't matter as long as bitcoiners wouldn't believe bitcoins are worth what they are. Take that believe away and they are worth nothing. So these two answers doesn't matter really.

It's different from other things like bread or something that has a value outside of being a currency.

food and stuff like that have not an intrinsic value, they are only mandatory thing, which i find it to be different, in reality nothing has a real intrinsic value because, everything is only backed up by demand

everyhing is relative, for example for a robot foods is useless and thus it has no value at all

Yeah i think it has value because of a mixture of the reasons you state in the poll.  The effort it takes to originally create the bitcoin is just 1 part of the circle of how it gains value.  Its lightweight value and fast, gold is heavyweight value and slow.

Everything has value only when you can either use it directly for your purposes, or someone else is willing to take it in exchange for some service or goods they provide.
Of course, unlike food or a house you can't use bitcoin directly to support your life. Direct use of bitcoin is only as a means of transmitting "ownership" of virtual amounts in a way that prevents counterfeiting. This use does not define the value that one bitcoin has, but it defines that bitcoin can have non-zero value.

In contrast, effort or time spent on mining bitcoins does not generate value:
Imagine spending half of the day carrying bags of sand from heap A to heap B, then spending the other half of the day carrying the bags back from heap B to heap A.
You spent a lot of effort but did you create value (unless you were going for the resulting weight loss and muscle training?)
The only relation between mining and bitcoin value is that equipment and energy necessary for mining is being purchased up to a limit where people don't think it's economical anymore, so the value of bitcoins is not created by energy spent mining it, but the amount of energy and investment spent on mining is limited by the perceived value of bitcoins that can be generated.
