Another example of how economicly illiterate anti Bitcoin Advocates are.

Go look at USD/YEN movement, 1-3% movements occur daily, if you were to purchase YEN with USd and later refund to USd you could end up significantly up or down.

But the wealth YEN represents is many many magnitudes greater than Bitcoin. When YEN appreciates by 2% that influences hundreds of millions of people and business, and guess who is pulling that lever, a small cabal of corrupt bankers.
