I stopped reading right there because I make a fortune off of my businesses in the Bitcoin community, lead several development teams to develop better standards for many of the technologies that even you will be using this year, and am having loads of fun learning all about micro-economics and micro-politics. The only auto accident is this forum and its more--erm-- 'passionate' members (most of which have already been banned).

I'm sure the members of this forum would LOVE it if that were true, but not even I believe in Bitcoin as-is. When used in combination with other systems such as ripple, open transactions, etc, it can be a true problem solver. Personally though, the concept of having to burn energy and ruin computers just to process the blockchain is one giant leap I've never been able to fully make. Thankfully I'm in no position of any kind of political power so my opinion doesn't matter half as much as my services to people willing to pay for them.



Only due to lack of interest.
