Blockchain is great, if you do not trust most BTC places you might as well just cash it all and fill your mattress with dollar bills.

Or, as i said, create a wallet inside a VM and store it on paper after

Not "just another", but "the only" currency.
Bitcoin was built with security in mind, not anonymity.Hiding financial activities from authorities was easy in the beginning, because they were unprepared.But nowadays is getting harder and harder to hide.And imo that's good, because bitcoin shouldn't be a hiding spot for crooks, but a fast and safe way for people to trade goods(oh, and cheap).

Apart from being more anonymous (anonymity and security overlap so "security in mind, not anonymity" means jackshit) - can you explain how bitcoin is more 'secure' than a normal currency?

I have a feeling that somehow i MUST prove ..something.I don't know what and why but here's few advantages of btc:
No chargeback risk
No counterfeiting possibility
No need for a third party that might put your own money on hold (with or without reason>see paypal)
That being said, this is where my contribution to this thread ends, i am not Satoshi Nakamoto to defend bitcoin, i am not earning anything by promoting bitcoin.
