Even though Bitcoin failed at many things, I don't see it as a failure as it literally started it all.
All the other cryptos are created after Bitcoin and learned from its shortcomings to build something better.
- Brian_K_White 5y agoIt did create and then prove an incredible and utterly novel and important concept. Your downvotes are invalid. I don't own and never have owned any btc, or any other crypto, and at this point wouldn't touch btc in particular with a 10' pole for several different reasons. But the very concept of a distributed ledger that may actually be trusted is both revolutionary and proved. It's collossal despite all the current degenerate uses and wasteful implementations.
- z3c0 5y agoAgreed. When the integrity of the chain is compromised, I'll call it a failure. In the meantime, I'll leave it to the opinionated pissants on both sides to continue acting like they understand anything about what's to come from a system with so little precedence.
