Bitcoin developer Jeff Garzik on altcoins, ASICs and bitcoin usability

“‘It took the nations of the Eurozone ten years or so to deploy the Euro, and that was introducing an entirely new currency,’ he says. ‘We’re trying to do the same thing with bitcoin. We’re trying to roll out a currency from scratch. And as the experience with the Euro showed, it takes an incredible amount of time to change over POS systems and cash registers, to train end of line merchant workers with this new payment system.’ Garzik believes that this is just the start. If his vision comes true, then maybe bitcoin could be as big as the Euro. Only, you know, without centralized banking and dysfunctional national economies gumming up the works.”
