So it's exactly like USD only: few accept it, there is a fee to transfer money in any reasonable amount of time, it isn't backed by any country, all of the exchanges are regularly stolen, it's a giant ponzi scheme, even the austrian economics think it's worth nothing, and there is no form of consumer protect/insurance whatosever.
