Earlier quoted context omitted.

We have an end of the world scenario in this case, "money" in form of paper or metal won't have any value whatsoever then. Money in itself only has value if people trust the value of the system, which is given for example in Bitcoin.

>people trust the value of the system, which is given for example in Bitcoin. It is in fact not a given(I for one do not trust the value of bitcoin or other cryptos, and I know more people who don't believe crypto has any value than those who do), and your comment is an example of attempting to coerce public opinions and beliefs in such a way as to promote crypto.

What you as a single person trust or not doesn't matter in this case. Enough people already decided to "trust" Bitcoin, that why it's worth 70k. I'm not promoting anything, thats just how money works. There is simply no Intrinsic value.
