“The Bitcoin network now clocks in at more than 256 times greater than the world’s 500 most powerful supercomputers combined. In short, that’s a lotta FLOPS! And there is not a currency network on earth registering faster growth. That’s an important distinction, because the network is what secures and validates the currency’s transaction history. If one values security and payment validation in a digital currency, in other words, Bitcoin is by far the safest bet. All this is not to say one of these upstarts…or some New Coin On The Block (N.C.O.T.B.) won’t take over…simply that it is much harder to dislodge an established network than it might seem at first blush.”
