The lack of product managers and an abundance of engineers is both the weakness/strength of the protocol. They have maybe 12 months of runway before everyone loses faith and sells, and by everyone, I mean me.
- BinaryIdiot 11y ago> They have maybe 12 months of runway before everyone loses faith and sells, and by everyone, I mean me. They're taking so long to even decide on a solution that I'm not convinced it's going to happen without fracturing. In fact, because of how this known problem has been creeping up with piss poor direction with solving the problem, I do not believe bitcoin is mature enough to put any serious money in it. Gamble, play with it but why would anyone put any serious money into it especially now?
- BinaryResult 11y agoOne reason may be that the rate of issuance of new coins is going to be cut in half in 4 months.

- bdcravens 11y agoHttp has "won" because it meets needs other alternative protocols didn't. After 25 years, it's beyond incumbent. (Yet it is still evolving) Bitcoin isn't there yet; there's still several ways it could fail.
- arianvanp 11y agoYes i did. And moved to HTTPS instead. Not having fate our doubting the backing technology is a very legitimate reason to move your money eslewhere
- tokenizerrr 11y agoHTTPS is just HTTP over SSL. It's still the same protocol, just tunneled through a transport security layer.
