I do mean to be pedantic, so, lots of people wake up every morning wondering about the value of the dollar, euro, etc. there are plenty of forex traders. I agree with the pont though, bitcoin is much more a commodity than a currency.

Counter argument: the percentage of forex traders, trade economists and similar jobs in the general population is rather very small. Most people produce in euros, buy in euros and are only remotely affected by its evolution.

And the evolution euro/dollar is much less exciting than the ups and down of bitcoin.
