Steve, things are worth what people are willing to pay for them.

WTF does ‘Bitcoin’ have to do with the Fed exchanging very short term loans (aka Repo agreements) for US Sovereign Debt that the Banks post as collateral? At least if you hold a Treasury Note it’s not going to get stolen by some hacker.
