BTC has dipped below $10k. I'm not saying it's a buying opportunity, but... it's a buying opportunity.

Well anybody who hasn't heard of Gresham's Law deserves what they got coming.

What makes some good and some bad?
-
The tech, dilutability, value held. Only one, or at most two, can win. BTC was first to solve major tech prob and biggest. It will almost surely win. Ethereum solves a slightly diff prob, so may win. The rest are garbage.
-
Where does the value held come from, though? The tech verifies transactions and ownership, and that's very nice, but what are you owning?
-
You're owning a cash that can be transferred on the internet without 3rd party verification. Stop and think about that.
-
Beyond that, what is the value behind ANY currency? Demand for it, alone. Even the goldbugs' appeal to "intrinsic" value misses the overwhelming point re gold: it's a currency PRECISELY BECAUSE it's practically useless.
-
90+% (iirc) of the gold mined in human history is sitting in vaults. This makes dilution impossible. Hence gold "valuable".
