Dollars

US Dollars have "No Real Value." But at this point I can trade them for goods, services or other currencies. If BitCoins go south, all I have is at best a screen capture of the "coins." If the US Government fell tomorrow, I could still sell the paper. Same as on eBay you can buy Confederate currency. Not worth much, but at least something.

Hell, I own 18,500 shares of Enron in electronic form. If i had a certificate, some collector would pay me for that certificate.
