“Did the dollar buy less after millions had their credit hacked recently via Target stores?”

No but target stock TGT did drop significantly.

As it should have. My point being that a reasonably severe problem with the credit system didn’t impact the dollar in any significant way. Compare that to the fluctuation in Bitcoin when a portion of its system (Ft Gox) was hacked. My larger point is that Bitcoin is an inferior currency to the dollar, i.e., the dreaded “fiat” money, at least presently.
