...compared to say u.s. dollar bills which you can hold in your hand or stuff in your mattress.
this is why bitcoins will not go mainstream because majority of human beings on this planet do not have access to a computer.
successful gold standards are things like toyota trucks, ak-47's, u.s. c-notes which thrive in places like afghanistan and africa.
This is a very foolish post that is not only myopic but also insultive. Who ever told you we don't have computers in Africa? You must be a really dimwitted fellow to post this. You should really do a research on the percentage of people into cryptocurrency in Africa mate!
Agree with you this does not make any sense we are now living in the age of computers and it is the need of the day, now every system is depending on digitals and we are almost in the era of digital, in every market you will see a lot of computers controlling the payment, selling even dealing system so I think bitcoin is hard to fail infect it will be more and more famous with time so have patience dont spread negativity.
