I think it's naive to think that stokebrokers have not been paying attention for the last few years.

I think it's naive to think that stokebrokers have not been paying attention for the last few years.
- adrianwaj 13y agoThe narrative around bitcoin is changing. It can be seen more of an investment now than a bet. Up until now I think bitcoin has been an "as yet proven, volatile, geeky, alternate, viral internet currency with network effects." And the conservative are left wondering if it's a fad or a bubble. Now it's just an emerging asset class with unique fundamentals that could have real utility within the financial services community itself... eg to settle trades.
- simplemath 13y agoThe "unique fundamental" is a built in pseudonomous chargeback-less, ACH-less, nearly instantaneous global transaction system that has proven extremely difficult to cheat. This fundamental alone gives BTC tremendous value.
