‘Virtual’ means that it does not exist, but it is assumed to exist. So, ‘virtual currency’ is regarded as a non-existent entity, and the act of trading virtual currency is considered a bubble. However, virtual currency exists as an electromagnetic combination, that is, ‘bits (bytes)’ among the constituent elements of matter, and this bit exists on an atom. It exists in a different form, not non-existent. Therefore, it is real, not virtual. Most of the legendary investors have overlooked this point. Ultimately, the bit depends on the atom. As long as the atom doesn’t die, the bits just exist together. - Joseph’s “just my thoughts”

There’s a saying that after a flood, no water is left to drink. Those who see this as a metaphor grasp that it signifies that “usefulness” outweighs “quantity.” In contrast, literal interpreters might invest in stocks for “mineral water” due to an anticipated rise in demand for bottled water post-flood. This illustrates how interpretation and action can diverge significantly. - Joseph’s “just my thoughts”

Diamonds are useless but expensive. At best, the usefulness of diamonds is just a hardness. There are many beautiful colored gems other than diamonds in the world. Paradoxically, diamonds are worth more because they are useless. A way for the rich to show off their wealth is to show that even if it is futile, they can pay for what others cannot. It is not the only value that is useful in the world. Value purely comes from a human. Focus on how human needs arise. - Joseph’s “just my thoughts”
