Bitcoin is money because it can be traded for goods. Go to any of the dark markets and you can trade Bitcoin for damned near anything you want.

I don't understand why people pay money to stream music.
If you give Pandora $5/month, you get no ads and unlimited skips. For $10 you can select tracks. For me, that's well worth it. On a normal day, I smoke at least $10 worth of weed, so a $5/month recreational expense doesn't bother me too much.

If you need God to act morally, you're not acting morally. You're just acting out of fear or hope for reward. I have a lot more respect for the person who acts kindly out of love for his fellow man than I do the person who acts kindly because they think God is going to reward them for it.

Saturday morning cartoon ads get seen by everyone with a view of the TV. Phone ads are visible to everyone who can see the phone. Are you suggesting that parents are watching ads over their children's shoulders while they're playing games?
