     The only reason BTC is as valuable as it is today is because people traded it like that in the past. When you hear someone say they lost a key to $1m in BTC, well it wouldn't be worth $1m if you still had it.
     
     You can recover gold if it sinks to the bottom of the ocean. You lose a backup of your BTC wallet and there's no recovering that ... until some math kid wins a noble prize for figuring out reverse sha hashes in polynomial time ... and then all bets are off for everything.

     @gentoobro @djsumdog @cowanon It actually makes me nervous because the same thing that makes crypto great is also a huge vulnerability. I'll also acknowledge my own limitations here because my understanding is superficial at best; I mined doge and LTC like 10 years ago and stopped caring about it for a while.

     Crypto will be btfo when running an unlicensed node (aka using bitcoin at all) is harshly criminalized under securities and tax laws.
