If I said something like "Apple won't go out of business because it's a big company", comparing to Sears would be completely fair.

The OP said Bitcoin is like the lottery. It’s on him to explain that. The lottery has not returned value to almost every person who bought a ticket in the past decade, Bitcoin has. It’s a false and inept analogy.

I think the overwhelming majority of people who bought Bitcoin have paper gains only, not realised value.

Hardly what you'd call a "failure".
