Wow. This is a HackerNews thread, not some academic panel.
The handle I'm responding to hasn't exactly provided "evidence" either, including for:
* the existence of nebulous things like "value stores", "intrinsic value" or what constitutes or possesses either
* that Bitcoin is a negative-sum asset, a MLM or a pyramid scheme
* that a distributed tamper proof ledger doesn't have any usefulness for any practical purpose
which is fine by me, we're all just here to kill time between builds and deploys anyway :P but if you think evidence is required knock yourself out and prove some for any of the above
