Bitcoin (BTC) Lacks Intrinsic Value Says Roger Ver

According to Roger Ver, Bitcoin.com CEO, the value of Bitcoin (BTC) is only in the eyes of the individual that uses the leading crypto coin of the market. If there is no one to give Bitcoin (BTC) a value, the BTC wouldn’t have any value at all.

“There is no such thing as an intrinsic value, the value was in the mind of the beholder and not in the object itself,” said Roger Ver.

Also, Roger Ver said that the idea that the laborious mining process to generate 1 BTC is Bitcoin (BTC) intrinsic value is wrong.

“If I go and spend an hour making mud pies that do not give it value because I spent an hour making them or if I spend an hour making apple pies, the apple pies are valuable not because of spent an hour in making them but because people enjoy apple pie, and people don’t enjoy mud pie. So even if I spent an hour making apple pies or mud pies, the apple pies have value and the mud pies don’t have value,” argued Roger Ver.
