Bitcoin itself may never be more than a curiosity. However blockchains have a host of other uses because they meet the need for a trustworthy record, something vital for transactions of every sort.

The swan song of Keynesians that are realize that the Bitcoin blockchain is such a great leap forward in tech but are pissed that it is not inflationary and centrally controlled like their war currencies.

their war currencies are a weakness, someone gave me this video to watch: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iFDe5kUUyT0

alright the usd is gimped and failing bigtime.. it is also unconstitutional .. it is going to cause the economies to collapse it is just a matter of time and that time is likely much sooner than later. the "in god we trust" for the federal reserve to print and manipulate markets has proven to be inferior technology that lead them to their own demise..... and obama's record breaking taxes for 2014 and 2015 lead to people stopping paying their obamacare premiums causing several obamacare co-ops to collapse and insurance premiums to soar... total disaster... the raising of the debt ceiling brings us closer to the economic collapse....

and hating to burst bubbles here but the usa is NOT going to use bitcoin as a reserve currency... here's whats up:

Treasury To Sell SPR Oil To Pay BillsWhy Not Sell Some Gold Instead? http://investmentresearchdynamics.com/treasury-to-sell-spr-oil-to-pay-bills-why-not-sell-some-gold-instead/

the usa is selling bitcoins and oil while they start to hoard gold and silver.. the central banks are hoarding gold and silver... and not bitcoins.... however, they want everyone to think we are being innoavative when really its just something to distract everyone from the real thing going down somewhere else: gold and silver backed money (notice i did not say currency ?? there is a difference between money and a currency) .. money is a store of value while currency is not.. which is bitcoin ?? is it money ?? or is it a currency ??... i'm betting its the latter because if people lose confidence in bitcoin then it can go to zero and never rise again, while gold and silver will ALWAYS be worth something no matter what it is a true store of value.
