We talked about bitcoin today on the phone. She asked me if she gave me 30 dollars if I could invest it for her. I explained the volility of the coin that we could go from 100 to zero just like that. She still wants to put in 30.
That tells me while we may not be mainstream yet, we are getting there.
This is one example of people who think bitcoin just like gold and stock trading, even like a money game. And out there are still many people think if they buy bitcoin with USD 10 will make them rich quickly, it's a shame.
Mainstream? I don't think it will happen if everyone is still thinking about such stupid things in 2017, and bitcoin just would like a stock trading.
