Bitcoin is an inferior means of exchanging sums of capital, in its current form. Nobody wealthy really cares about it.
Small transactions: cash is faster and 100% secure (money goes from person X to person Y and is verified by counting in 10 seconds or less, vs. bitcoin's 20 minute block confirmation wait).
Large transactions: bank transfers are much, MUCH safer (FDIC insurance at my free savings account covers up to $100,000, there's no 100% secure equivalent in the bitcoin world, and wallet security is a joke right now).
Price volatility: developed nation currency is 100 times more stable.
Usability: developed nation currency is 100,000 times more commonly accepted as monetary standard.
Speaking from the perspective of a very wealthy individual, why care about such an inferior currency system at all? This is a proof of concept, not designed for mainstream use, and needs a lot of work. Respect bitcoin for what it is and what it proves. Graham Bell's first telephone is NOT an iphone. Got it?
Sorry guys.
