“Anonymity. Decentralised. Government free? With tremendous transaction cost advantage. Not a debt-based system. Biggest risk? If there is a technical flaw that will get exposed when a billion people are using it. Competing crypto-currency backed by major international companies on the supply side. Or invention easy to access free energy. In the end it is not about Bitcoin. This is about transactions taking place outside of the currently approved system. Bitcoin just happens to be the medium. You don’t have to like what these people holding Bitcoins do. But there is always a market for this.”
