"One day everyone will use China's digital currency"
You think patriots would let that happen?
(Note that BtC has popped almost x6 since about the exact date this article was published last September. True, the fiat dollar bloated, but by nowhere near enough to justify even half of that move.)
I've been saying this since it came out. There's no value in anything, else except knowledge, that you can't physically hold with your hands.
Unless you're cashing it in and trading it for fiat, and then buying silver or gold with the converted earnings, or anything else that can be battered or traded, it's useless once the financial system collapses, b cause tis a digital, and therefore, "ethereal" concept.
