Comment: A very good question

It does not bother me if you choose.not to redeem frns for bitcoin. What does bother me is the misinformation about them that is spread all over here. But to understand what trading or holding them means is something else more importantly. Bitcoin, like metals require work and capital to be mined with do take a lot of computing power to create. When you buy them you dont just recieve the currency, you support the community of bitcoin; much like you supporting the prospector for removing ore from underground so he can continue prospecting. The bitcoin miner can put more capital into mining bitcoin. Why support the community? Because it is decentralized depriving private banks and corperations from running this country down with fiat money and putting wealth back into the hands of The People. I dont expect this to can your mind on bitcoin however I do wish this clears up any misinformation
