RE: Cheaper Than Amazon Purchases With The Added Security Of Bitcoin

in #retail7 years ago

Great review on Purse.io!

This company has been doing quite well for some years and as you said, is a great example of cryptocurrency utility in action. It's indeed sad though that 98% of people who "owns" cryptocurrency does it only for speculative purposes. And i put the " " because definitively they dont even own them. Your keys, your coin, not your keys, not your coins.

It's refreshing to see Purse.io still gets attention.

Sort:  

Completely agree. For the price and the public as a whole to adopt it, we will need to see:

  1. A lot more improvement in ease of use.
  2. A lot more opportunities for users to use cryptocurrency in their daily lives. purse.io is great and so is Steem.

PS. Wrote a previous article on sports betting with crypto.

@travellife that too..

  1. Bitcoin today is like TCP/IP of the internet back when nothing is built on top of it yet.. They way people explained bitcoin today is how people explained TCP/IP internet back in the day. Many work to be done but nevertheless things will improve and the early adopters will benefit so much if only they know what to do with it.
  2. It's like the muddy roads that early days cars used back in the days (1880++) of early ICE tech. Horses were easier to use back then and "no one" uses cars. Now its the complete opposite. I know it will be the same with Bitcoin because the technological leap between Bitcoin and Banks are just like Cars and horses.

I agree. What is different though is the adoption will certainly be much faster than it was for ICE. It's only 10 years now since bitcoin is available and it is already global.

@travellife Of course, innovation is only going to get faster because of capitalism and human population. if there was only Edison, Ford, and Tesla back in the 1800s there would be 24 super tech geniuses in today's society.. which of course is a wrong projection because education and information sharing overall has improved.

It would not take as long as past techs.. but it will still take time. We're talking about disrupting a 500 year old industry here afterall (since the first time double entry accounting is created).
