You may be right in the long term (and I agree with this), but there will be a transition period that may be painful for many people. The value created by most companies is very concentrated amongst employees -- that is, there are relativel

Without commenting on your first 3 points, I'd argue that a 3rd world country could potentially be an excellent place to gain mass adoption. In the U.S. we have credit cards and fixed addresses to mail bills. There's probably a billion peo
