Used to watch a lot of this guy's vids during my silver bug days.

Any guess what his biggest mistake was?
Hint: It was 20 years ago and there was a cake involved.

Bitcoin can lose its value completely if people decide it is no longer worth using. If, for instance, a major government banned the use of bitcoins (as the U.S. did with the liberty dollar, albeit by a different mechanism) their value could decrease substantially due to loss of a large legitimate market.

I like that guy. It seems like there is a huge difference between African Americans, and Africans of other countries. Kinda interesting really.

When I wrote this, I was thinking of non-value related threats -- threats to possession.
There are a couple of non-value related threats.
One is malware that targets the bitcoin wallets

another is gov't seizure e.g. ...

Value related threats include competing newer crypto currencies like lite coin & feather coin.
