It's backed by electricity. The more electric power you invest the more "revenue" you get Smile
The perfect scourge from God to the scam of toilet papers known as the Dollar.

-Where is my gold; Dixie?

-Well, uncle Sam stole it all, and gave me toilet papers instead..fooled me that I can get gold; but he stole all the gold an kept it there in a safe, locked in chains away and far from me and James ! We are so poor, so broke, living in cells and mud; while Sam lives in mountains of gold and Rum.

-The lonely thinker.

You're quite deluded if you believe that.  You are describing mining bitcoins.  That's one way to acquire them, but it has absolutely nothing to do with the value of a bitcoin.  The "value" of crypto currencies floats relative to all other currencies, and everything else for that matter, just like conventional currencies.  Even if what you say was true, it has no meaning.  Just because you "paid" 100 killowats-hours for a bitcoin (for instance) doesn't mean you can redeem said bitcoin later for that amount of electricity.  It has no backing, just like other currencies.  Currencies are only worth what society believes they are worth.  It's a mind trick and it has existed since the first cro-magnon traded a sharp rock for a fish.

I don't know where you got that hokey quote but it doesn't mean anything to me.  But here's one for you:

"Islamist terrorism is a cancer on Islam, and Muslims themselves must fight it at our side."
