True, but what is the minimum natural wage a job can have? Suppose for a particular set of fields, there is a greater supply of workers than needed, why wouldn't the wage for any job in that field approach zero, regardless of the profit made by the employer?

What, you think the lawyers working on this class action don't deserve to get paid?!?!?!?

(I miss the old slashdot)

Did you paraphrase this from the Department of Homeland Seurity bomb threat response model?

But what about first mover advantage? The stability and security of bitcoin is far ahead of all the other crypto currencies.

A long time ago, gold was only used to make jewelry and trinkets, and few people had use for it. But it was rare, so demand always outstripped supply which meant the price stayed relatively high. It was also lightweight, durable, easy split, and comparatively easy to distinguish the real thing versus fakes. It was around the best store of value available in the day. So eventually people who had no need for it's original uses as jewelry, used it as such. This increased the amount of value a piece of gold could have, which in turn, increased its demand. Eventually this feedback loop slowed and came into equilabrium and this is how gold became so valuable today.

Sure there are crashes and bubbles but the price of gold always is a premium over its use as a trade good, because it also is a convienent store of value.

BTC also is useful to a small group of people, where bureaucratic red tape, high fees, and/or lack of trust makes trading with traditional currencies less convienent. And it too is useful as a store of value. You can hold 0.0001 as easily as 1 million BTC. You can transfer it quick and easily to anyone. You can even plausibly deny you own it. This gives it the status of best store of value for some use cases, today. So, I believe, eventually it, too, will go through same feedback loop that gold did.
