RE: Crypto currency is the 'linux' of money: more secure, smarter, but less user friendly with high barrier to entry

The Linux of money...a very apt description lol.
This is all new to me, only joined today. A lot to learn

Sort:  

I've had an 'onlooker' interest in crypto currency since it first took shape as bitcoin. To this day, it is still not straight forward to buy bitcoins. I happen to have a tiny amount of bitcoins and have been trying to transfer them from coin.space into an exchange so I can pick up some Saicoin, but coin.space has cancelled every transaction I've attempted for the past two days, inexplicably. This technology is certainly interesting, and clearly profitable for those who began mining early on, but will become an echo chamber circle jerk if the architects behind it can't make it accessible to average, even above-average, consumers of technology. This is why I think BTC will crash and crash big after this push in the media. Then, I'll buy and buy lots.. Because they'll realize this flaw after that crash... It might take a while to fix it, but, once they do, then it will be mainstream. But not until then.
