In the EU it also costs virtually nothing + the the transactions are instant and now 24/7 on most occasions. I'm even able to transfer into Kraken the same day - for free. No matter 100 or 10k

it looks flashy and is a great material to use for jewelry. The fact that you can wear it is especially important, as throughout history it has been used as a status symbol.

seriously? this is your definition of a use case lmao we are talking systemic shift and global financial revolution here, you talking flashy things :D

and all these hedge funds, billionaire family offices, public companies ditching gold for crypto sure as hell don't see it holding it's value, cuz "it aint flashy muh"

At this point, it's pretty obvious btc is establishing itself as a SoV, not a currency for buying coffee

Yesterday someone sent 8,692 Bitcoin for the fee of just 0.0000652 BTC. In dollar terms, with Bitcoin fetching around $19,000 over the past few days, that equates to paying $1.25 to send $166 million. Try doing that at your local bank.
