Holding is using. There's a reason people like PTJ and now MicroStrategy just hold it. And a lot of it.


Holding for greed or risk diversification isn't using in the classical use of the term using - it's using it to mitigate potential risk and/or to earn wealth if society is tricked into using this mechanism that unnecessarily transfers wealth from late adopters to earlier adopters.
