The blockchain is already growing out of control. If you don't bribe miners, your transaction could sit for hours in limbo. To get the maximum benefit, you should hoard them, but without some movement, there is no 'economy'. And, the Bitcoin fan club is full to the brim with scammers, criminals, liars, and frauds salivating to cash out and leave everyone else holding the worthless bag.

Bitcoin is not a currency. It is not a good store of value. It is a proof-of-concept that has been ruined by its biggest fans. Bitcoins only have the worth that they have right now due to rampant speculation. Good luck with your digital Beanie-Babies. A handful of people will win, most will lose. Such is the way of all scams.
