I agree. Though some dedicated geeks do exclusively use it and might not.

Where have I ever claimed that ******* is currently in a position to replace the GBP or USD in day to day use? I've always referenced the early internet to invoke patience when people try and make exaggerated claims about its current state.

It is a speculative for many, as indeed is the stock market, but that doesn't mean that there aren't many other serious investors who recognise its value on its fundementals and buy it as a long term investment rather than a short term speculative gamble. Multiple things can be true at the same time.
