What is the advantage when it's not private anymore? Tell me? When it's not a tax evasion method or way to buy illegal things who is going to use it? Mac users? Linux users? While the other 95% stick with current backed insured currency. Really who is the idiot here? He compared it to linux in the late 90's and early 2000's. It was secure, it was private it was unique and really cool and the FUTURE they said. 20 years later windows still rules 95% of the market for home users. Linux runs servers. BTC will find a small niche somewhere for something, but it will never see mainstream adoption like you blindly hope for. Give me one good reason consumers (not business contracts) will turn to something not insured, not easy at all to use for most of the population. Requires net access which most of the world still doesn't even have.
