Bitcoin Startup 21 Unveils Product Plan: Embeddable Chips for Smartphones
- HashHishBang 11y agoIt's probably way too far out for anyone to make any real judgements on this. Additionally I will qualify the rest of the text with the information that I find BitCoin more silly and revolutionary. That being said...What the actual fuck? From an embedded mining chip in smartphones, to not focusing specifically on mining(?), to a distinctly finite currency (at least as I understand it) being referred to as an “infinite stream of digital currency". This does not inspire confidence, no... It actually seems to get to the level of the Fry "not-sure-if" meme in the next paragraph when quoting Mr. Srinivasan. >The product launch reflects 21’s view that “bitcoin will ultimately be seen as a fundamental system resource on par with CPU, bandwidth, hard drive space and RAM,” I feel one must question at the very least the motives of a person who wants MONEY to be a fundamental system resource. Woe unto us when we open a system monitor to see an account balance next to our consumed physical/virtual memory.
