Bitcoin is the equivalent of a real estate investor selling oceanfront property in Arizona. It doesn't actually exist and he doesn't have anything real to sell, but people start bidding for it, so it gains in "value". Others see that this could be a hot "property", so new people put real money in to purchase 1/1000th of the property. Eventually, as these shares fluctuate, some investors sell off their shares; others get in.
Enjoy your invisible, intangible, hyper-inflated, "currency" but understand that it is no more real than the imaginary property in my example. As soon as people realize there is nothing but hope, dreams, and fantasy behind it, it will have no real storage of value.
