Something arbitrary with no value went from a random Internet forum to $300b market cap and a legal currency for a nation-state. That’s something!

I don’t know what’s would be a better outcome.

Did you expect it to be world reserve currency in a decade? Replace the 5000 years gold? Upend the global banking system? Render the IMF obsolete? Make nation-states think twice about waging war without taxation?

I mean - surely you aren’t comparing these world-shattering outcomes to a mobile app that doesn’t make money after that long!
