    The analogy isn’t strictly incorrect, it’s just misleading. The price of usd to btc has seen more fluctuation in the last 24 hours than gbp to usd has seen in the past year. Crypto isn’t a currency, it’s a speculative asset.

      The fact that you don’t consider Zimbabwes dollarinos an actual currency doesn’t take away anything from the argument you replied to.

        Honestly not sure what point you’re making. ZWD has been completely stable against USD for a long time. BTC fluctuated by 7 entire goddamn percent. The currency of Zimbabwe is more of a currency than literally any crypto.
