I do not know much about quantum computing. But could you explain what makes these computers quantum? Is it the configuration of these transistors to invoke some quantum phenomena?
Yes, a decentralized international payment protocol is a good answer, but it also has a currency itself embedded in it. A type of currency to make this protocol work.
The whole thing saves a lot of manpower and energy in the world, so in that regard it potentially holds a lot of value.
However, if you told me to open up Excel and calculate the approximate true value of 1 BTC, I am unable to do so.
I can imagine scenarios where for someone with very specific needs of anonymity it solves problems, but I cannot imagine any direct problems it solves for me.
I guess it is wise to sell when the market is greedy and buy when it is fearful, as long as you have the foundations in check.
I am more of a holder usually as well, unless I truly believe the price is so overvalued that it would take a lot of time before another full dip-rally cycle.

You can easily do routine work for 8+ hours daily. The sort of work that can potentially be automated one day. What you call "coding" is routine enough in my book.
But if you're doing something novel and solving hard problems, I think 4-5 hours would be a maximum for sure.
Since the content is curated strongly by your likes and dislikes, I am afraid your children might actually get some nasty stuff there. There's psychotic horror and soft porn. I don't think I'd trust my child with it unless they're older than 14 or so.
The dancing stuff is pretty mild and I'd say even constructive for children.
The allure, is hard to describe. The content I see is very human, people describing their experiences, doing harmless jokes on each other, or teaching something. How it differs from YouTube is that it is much more strongly tailored to your likes, and due to time constraints, skips the chuff and gets to the meat of things quicker.
I absolutely love using TikTok, but would give it up in a heartbeat for a Western replacement.
It has absolutely brought more positivity into my life. I am specifically feeding the algorithm with this intent and I get what I asked for. It is a psychological tool.
