It's also important to recognize with regard to currency that its value is really created by the community that accepts it as a means of exchange and/or store of value. That's why both Bitcoin and Ethereum have such a large market cap - they both have a large community of support. This is also why I am more and more interested in Steem since it appears that the community continues to grow as more and more people gravitate to a decentralized social ecosystem.
