Stop comparing #bitcoin to tulips. Tulips lack many essentials qualities of money: Durability, Divisibility & Uniformity (which BTC has). Gold is a much more accurate comparison (though imperfect).

Pros of gold: long history & non-monetary uses place a floor on value (won't go to zero), helps holders feel safe. Pros of BTC: more transferable, divisible, can grow in features. Con: could be replaced by competitors and become worthless.

Even if that last con is a serious concern, you'll need to something to buy the competitors with, and Bitcoin will do that as well as anything.
