- vlovich123 5y agoI think the contention is around that it could even be a 10 year stopgap. I too think it would be much shorter - a couple of years at most.
- vmception 5y agoah okay so some of us are are agreeing about the limited utility. I mostly think the production and distribution would be constrained for the level of demand out there.
- simias 5y agoIndeed, I should have made that clearer. 10 years is what separates the iphone 1 and the iphone 8, or the PlayStation and the PlayStation 3. If there's a breakthrough in computing technology it'll be everywhere within a couple of years IMO, and miners will be among the first ones served because they're willing to pay above market price and in bulk (see the GPU situation at the moment).
