Reading articles like this really confuse me. The guy seems really intelligent, but there is a glaring problem with his article. It focuses on Bitcoin! Bitcoin technology...I repeat, the technology, not Bitcoin itself...is a breakthrough capable of massive changes to aspects of our lives that can't even be fathomed yet. He ignores this and instead focuses on the "glaring" flaws of Bitcoin. Any investment in Bitcoin is also an investment in it's technology and the future of it (in exception of buying and selling bitcoins...that is purely an investment for profit). Bitcoin may fail but the technology behind it will never die. If Bitcoin dies...which I don't believe it will...it will be reborn over and over again until it is perfected.
