""they ignored all the practical, economic and legal challenges it would need to overcome before it could become a real currency""
Bitcoin is born liberated and will continue to, irrespective of governments giving their stance. What else would a 'fanboy' expect from established players?
there is demand for bitcoin, i agree it is little demand for very few applications. Fad is something else. bitcoin is'nt born perfect but people are trying to solve its problems.
atleast majority of bitcoin millionaires will be more of a sharing culture type and they will play their part in helping the poor. There is higher chance of good with bitcoin wealth than banking wealth. Internet is inherently kind and wealth inequality will be resolved when it happens here. IMO
Theoretically right, but once you have bitcoin becoming mainstream currency, there will be different forks/alt coins that are also equally good and digital currency will be widespread instead of just bitcoin. Just a guess..
some good points there; the tech demo is currently using a flexible eink display powered with a beagleboard. Heart rate monitor is difficult and we are licensing the software that optimises down to everybeat for athletic applications.It's an attempt, should make a lot of progress.
you are right, but we are working in stealth; only to save the fun for a launch. The problem with showcasing the product too early is someone emails you claiming the troll IP, and it happened.
