Isn’t the value in money both in security (eg. Dollar backed by Superpower) and economic transaction?

With Bitcoin’s hash rate at an all time high, it’s more secure than ever - can we say it’s the most secure system in the world?

Of course the tradeoff for BTC is like insane consumption of power (currently Argentina size).

With BTC, I don’t think the use case will ever be to handle small sums of money. Transaction speed and fees don’t make sense for it.

What sort of security are you referring to?

Expensive to fork I presume.
