Difference is Web has 300M users at 5 years mark, we have no more than 1M users at 5 years mark. At this rate, it'll be year 2150 when we reach 1% population
Really? The internet had 300M users in 1974?
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/ARPANETIf you mean "web" as in WWW, you're still off by an order of magnitude.
And I'd argue that Bitcoin is more foundational than WWW, and so it's far more reasonable to say that we're currently in a "pre-web" equivalent period.
But I honestly go back and forth between feeling like Bitcoin right now is equivalent to the internet in 1984 or 1994. Doesn't matter in the end, though.
