He's not wrong... I'd compare it more though to original gold and silver as currency in the middle ages and earlier.... It's a new technology just like original currency was centuries ago. I think it has the potential to end poverty if tied to a single identity and account with built in taxes and a cap (prevent billionaires) and ads/rewards for internet content producers (built in patreon and crowd funding)... But bitcoin and even ethereum aren't this... Eth has more potential and possibilities, Cardano is even better, but I think anything that might help poverty and equality and post scarcity is 20 years off... Might not even technically use blockchain but some other mechanism for decentralization of currency.
