And they dont keep printing more which devalues USD. Honestly bitcoin could be a lower cost for governments to accept as currency. No overhead for them, no cost to produce or maintain.

I bought more today. I really think we'll see at least $1000 by the end of the year. But if I knew that for sure I'd be taking out loans to buy it up lol. [Reply]
