Gavincoin's idea of doubling every 2 years is not a good one.

if they cannot propose another better idea, then we need to accept that, i mena we can't wait forever until someone come up with an idea, now i'm starting to believe that this problem should have solved much early, with the fork of 2013

thus you don't need today to fork again and at that time, chinese were not controlling 60% of the network, and playing the dictator's game...

You can accept it, I will not.

I don't have an issue with BTC costing $5-10 to send and using something like Bitshares to buy coffee with and Bitcoin to store wealth.

I do have an issue, though. Why should I need to change currency just to be able to buy coffee? It's just not worth the effort.


Same reason people use to have copper AND gold.  

I believe that people will own a handful of currencies in the near future.  The altcoins have been completely underestimated.

The same reason people have a savings account and checkings.

A visa and a line of credit.

Still you don't understand my point. My savings account and my MasterCard and my spare change is denominated in the same currency. I don't have to do any exchange between currencies to get money from the ATM and buy a sandwich.
