> No, you can have 30K BTC in your brain, but unfortunately the USD value fluctuates so wildly that as a store of value, it's useless.
Yes, for those amounts. But for several purposes, unfortunately most of them 'evil' (money laundering / terrorism), this works fine. I know it's used a lot for people in countries where getting currency out above a certain threshold is very hard unless you are at the highest level of corruption with great success. They are not so bothered with losing a few 1000$ by fluctuation as their goal is getting it out and converted to something else (safer) (USD/EUR) asap.
