Imagine if cryptos right now on are in the limewire / napster / winamp stage of evolution?
Can you imagine a world where your so called shit coins are in the hundreds and thousands per range?
You are either the smart money or the skeptic, you decide.
Charles Price
but people mass adopted napster and it only declined from that point on...
Jonathan Long
We are absolutely still in stage 1 of the technology aspect. Like before Lars Ulrich got involved.
David Diaz
no I mean only savvy tech people could obtain an mp3 and risked viruses etc. but then itunes came around for the masses after a long time though before it really caught on.
Caleb Allen
Its likely they will say "fuck bitcoin" and make their own things because they don't like the idea of not being able to control everything and they are late to the party.
Our crypto will likely be left forgotten in the end, so make your money while its still somewhat popular and unregulated for the most part.
Joseph Fisher
yup you get it. there is a generation right now being born that may see cryptos like they're smartphones and pay handsomely for them but we're in the thick of it now as it evolves. It feels like it's just the beginning. As much as people credit bitcoin as the beginning it might be like comparing those giant bulky mobile phones from the 80s to what a smartphone is now, which is more about being a portable pocket pc with internet than simply a mobile phone.
Henry Edwards
yeah and where are limewire / winamp / napster?
Dominic Gray
stage one of tech, absolutely.
stage one for capital and hype? definitely not.
Gabriel Ward
thats how tech works, but bitcoin isn't tech, it's finance. you could argue the same for ethereum and maybe 5 or so other coins. the rest of them are absolutely replaceable because they have nothing keeping people from leaving.
