He's right, of course.  What he's missing, is that bitcoin and the rest of crypto are perfect speculative assets (by definition "bubbles") and that finance loves to gamble on speculative assets.  That's why bitcoin has indeed a bright future - but not as a currency, but as the thing it has been doing since the beginning: a greater-fool game.  There's still a world of greater fools to take.  The whole gambling sector of speculative finance (the derivatives market cap) is 10 times the world economy (about 1.2 quadrillion dollars).  This is the sector that crypto plays in, not "fiat money" (which is 100 times smaller).

Yes, he confirmed the "private beta" will be released in August. Now, "private beta" should mean that it won't be ready for public released yet, but for testing purposes.

Crypto is now a $100,000,000,000 market. Congratulations to all believers and hodlers. How high can this nascent market get?

Stop calling the recent expansion of the cryptosphere a bubble. We are not in a bubble. We are simply experiencing the rapid expansion of a nascent technology with new entrants and their fiat entering the market. A bubble is when everyone is talking about cryptos, e.g. your taxi driver, the bellboy, etc. Outside of my close circle of tech colleagues zero people are talking about Bitcoin.

I am living in a still-considered as a third world country which kinda suit me because the standard of living here is still low and we can easily afford all the necessities of life and even some luxuries here and there. Money here goes a long, long way at least compared to developed countries like USA or Japan for that matter.

It is then good to retire here most especially if you have the money in your purse. Now, I am planning to set aide even just 1 Bitcoin as part of my retirement plan...of course it is just part of the mix as I am also into cacao/mango/coconut farming which can also serve me well when I am retired.

Do you think 1 Bitcoin can be good for retirement...let's say 20 years from now?

Its very possible since eth has a bigger coins in circulation compared to bitcoin. As of now, bitcoin is still the number one in terms of market capitalization. What the Eth had surpassed from bitcoin is the daily trading volume. In coinmarketcap Eth is at $1,581,960,000 volume in 24 hrs while bitcoin is at $1,440,320,000.

That moment when you buy 1BTC at $2500, and then 3 days later someone buys it at $2000. But I'm guessing that it's the risk involved in investing, so what do I do now? Sell? Or hold on them?

There's one problem with bitcoin. sometimes absolute freedom is too much freedom. People need to feel "safe" about their money, even if it is just an illusion. Banks, Paypal, etc give people that safety. Bitcoin on the other hand, where every single transaction is final and there's no central authority, makes most people a little uncomfortable.

Guys, i made a small fortune in altcoin/bitcoin. In which country should i settle ?
I have no wife, no kids, just a girlfriend, i´m free to go wherever i want (she´ll go with me).
But it has to be a bitcoin-friendly country.
I have no intention to buy lambos, just a peaceful life.
Thanks.

Oh, and my age is 53, that makes a difference too.

Actually that is one of great advantages of bitcoin: holding it is a better investment that the options offered by banks to invest your capital in ordinary financial instruments. If you have decided to invest in bitcoins, it seems a bit incongruent to think of investing them in ordinary banks.

A bank called Skandiabanken in Norway now supports Bitcoin. However you cannot purchase the Bitcoins through the bank, you'll be redirected to Coinbase in order to buy.

I don't have this bank myself, so I cannot test this. It seems like it's just linked to Coinbase and the bank does not store the coins on their servers.

This feature is in a beta phase, and the laws in Norway could cause conflicts. I think this is a huge step, and I hope this will soon be supported in more banks. This feature is mainly for investors, you cannot use it to pay bills and such.

Paper wallet - it's all right there

Just make sure you check your sources and print from a clean box...and keep that piece of paper safe.  Web, exchange; anything out of your hands is extremely likely to be compromised over a physical medium (assuming you're practicing safe storage methods).
