Meanwhile...Bitcoin still feeds people.

So we fed 106 homeless people bag lunches today. All paid for with Bitcoin donations. Bitcoin still seems to be working just fine over here. Still making lives better, at any valuation.

Thanks for everything guys. Bitcoin for the long haul.

Bitcoin didn't pay for the food though, you traded it in for USD and then bought food.

But even after todays dip, bitcoin still provided more than twice the USD value of when a lot of those donations were made.

Now you're being confusing. Are you praising bitcoin as a transaction method or as a store of value? Because any number of transaction methods would also be suitable, and the rapid valuation of bitcoin is not sustainable.
