Things always start with the geek, then become mainstream and then get the recognition that was supposed to come.
Its value support lies in people's commemoration of the pioneer of this virtual currency and the huge bubble created by it, just like someone collects a bunch of old computers that can't run.
Bubble? I would not call it a bubble anymore, maybe that thought was there when bitcoin was about to touch 10k USD but not anymore.
Also dont get your simile of old computers that dont run - that is junk and only worth selling at whatever price you can but bitcoin is growing in price. Development is happening behind the scenes on Core and gaining attention from the world's big companies.
Now the digital era is all done by digitally ordering goods via online and talking long distance video calls as well as online. It is very likely that in the future bitcoin will become king of viat money and even bitcoin will dominate the world economy, it will happen in the future.
"Fiat" please dude, make sure you read your posts before closing the tab.

Bitcoin being allowed for merchants who are into e-commerce will be the next big thing after Paypal allowing bitcoin. Very soon we might see this happen because once the companies start accepting bitcoin one by one all follow suit due to peer pressure.
