That the blockchain technology itself is more valuable than Bitcoin

If someone who actively holds and trades Bitcoin on a daily basis, it's somewhat irresponsible to tout that bitcoin can reach 1 million dollars/coin. Sure, it will maintain an inherent value, but what need to be understood is that the blockchain technology itself is more valuable than Bitcoin, which is essentially a security, or currency, or whatever you want to classify it as.

For instance, regulation is a huge topic for Bitcoin as of present. As the value of Bitcoin raises, so do the eyebrows of government(s). Regulation can severely hinder bitcoins ability to grow. Everyone agrees in that the world is setting ourselves up for an economic collapse, but does that correlate to bitcoin growing in price? Also, the issue with using crypto-currencies to purchase things from merchants is that the price is never the same, or stable for that matter.

For example, buy a computer from a merchant for 1 bitcoin, the merchant accepts that form of payment, but the price can inherently raise of fall in value at any given time. If the merchant needs liquid fiat capital to maintain running his business (which sadly, most do), that price dropping can hurt the business owner; inversely it can also help him due to the increase of value. These are the type of two-sided points that are important to relay to newcomers, especially with a $4000 price tag/Bitcoin.

The main point to be conveyed is is that holding Bitcoin at this current moment in time is riskier that ever. Never seen this type of government intervention towards bitcoin, and this year has been more volatile than ever, including another fork which will further separate the community. It's only fair to help people understand the risk of bitcoin and not be so one-sided. In agreement that blockchain is the future, but must be understood that solely focusing on the pros of Bitcoin is irresponsible. Etherium (only opinion) is a safer investment strategy as of now, it's essentially a platform to help new ideas regarding blockchain proliferate, which is investing in the blockchain tech itself, and not some obscure coin that just so happen to be the first coin to be traded.
