yes a couple of students gasped but he said the bank will still take it, he does the same stunt every year

but the point was that, yes butters, we know fiat money is only valuable because we as a society decided that it was and it could hypothetically be worthless tomorrow. this isn't some earth shattering revelation

and even if cryptocurrency was adopted as world currency there is no reason for them to pick bitcoin specifically since anyone can create new blockchains with any number of coins. and even if they still did pick bitcoin the miners could vote to raise the limit.
