As opposed to Bitcoin, where the statement is sometimes along the lines of "lost 30% of its value since 20:13"?

In 2013, depositors in Bank of Greece lost 50% of their deposits above $100k, overnight, by decree. Not saying Bitcoin is perfect, but the alternatives are often not better.

"We're as bad as Greece during a financial crisis" isn't really reinforcing the "safe haven" argument.

Wasn't that in Cyprus?

yes not only was it in cyprus but it was 60% and in addition the rest of the 40% you weren't allowed to touch it, or more generally you need to submit around 3 forms to get funds from the money that is still there that you and i state this "used to own"

Nice joke, but short term volatility aside, bitcoin has been fairly stable for the last year or two, compared to the early days.

Yeah but we're talking about a loss of 30% of its value in under 5 minutes. Brexit vote to the GBP wasn't even that bad.

Eh, most of us were expecting it to fall worse.

Yep. Was picking it to hit the 7's. Quite surprised. Still think it is going to move sideways for a few months though. But hey, I was wrong about the scale of the post-ETF drop, so maybe I'm wrong about that. By any measure, bitcoin has much more support than I thought it did.
