Explainer: Why Does Bitcoin Have Value?

Original: Why Does Bitcoin Have Value? Bitcoin doesn't have a physical form.You can't hold a Bitcoin in your hand.It isn't backed

A new explainer asks why Bitcoin holds value despite having no physical form, no gold backing, and no institution promising to redeem it. The piece walks through the basics: Bitcoin isn't a tangible object and nobody stands behind it guaranteeing an exchange rate, yet people still pay real money for it, raising questions about what ultimately gives any currency its worth.

Why now: Ongoing public debate about cryptocurrency's worth amid price swings keeps the question of Bitcoin's value relevant.
