You ve literally no proof for yourself delusions about it being a “store for value”, but I’ve showered you with europol and other statistics showing that TRILLIONS are being used in criminal enterprises.

Do you know how large a number a trillion is?

Just because there are some barely valuable pump and dump meme coins doesn’t make my original assertion any lesser correct. Having a few hundred million worth is nothing compared to the TRILLIONS in drug money.

And like I said, it’s inherently impossible to quantify a BLACK MARKET, so the data we have is only showing a miniscule proportion of the actual illegal trades and even the best estimates are shown to be extremely conservative.

You just can’t face reality.

"Another online survey, based on a convenience sample of more than 100,000 participants in 35 countries worldwide, suggested that the proportion of Internet-using drug consumers who had purchased drugs on the dark web in the previous 12 months had more than doubled between 2014 and 2022, from 4.7 to 10.8 per cent.19 Although plausible, these findings should be interpreted with caution, because they are not based on representative global samples but on convenience samples that are characterized by an overrepresentation of Internet users in Europe, the Americas and Oceania.

Overlap that with the value of bitcoin. When was it’s sharpest rise again?

Oh my. Looks like reality keeps differing with your delusions, mister “I-won’t-accept-being-wrong-no-no-no”
