A Bitcoin is 2100$ NOW

Don't you guys scared that Bitcoin will be replaced by other more superior technology and BTC become zero?? Lol
 
Agreed. Although I think some banks have done a huge amount of modernization in recent years. I use ING and their online interface is nothing short of amazing. I can instantly exchange money between my accounts of different currencies, I can pay all my bills with just a couple of clicks and I can even buy top-ups for my mobile phone.

It just pisses me off a bit when I see everyone talking about how amazing Bitcoin is. Truth is, for most people it's not amazing and costs more than a traditional bank would for a lot of the usual day to day actions.

As I see it right now buying Bitcoin is very expensive. Using Bitcoin in a normal real world scenarios (ATM card at stores and so on) is very expensive and there are a ton of associated technicalities and risks that no should really wants to put up with. Just my take on it

Agree with all of that. For the average person its not that great and it probably seems like a few things are solved with bitcoin but a load more problems are created.

I think I am biased as well because I am in the technology industry and so I love any new technologies.

Recently though I went to a presentation about digital disruption and how digital technologies are disrupting lots of traditional business models (Hotels, taxis, estate agencies etc). And how they are introducing technologies to reduce friction within these businesses (Friction being everything in between the product and the end-user). And I see myself that where this really works is when someone builds things again from the ground up with technology at the forefront - rather than just introducing technology to existing business models.

I have the vision of bitcoin, or similar digital currencies, doing this in the banking industry.

But I do agree that banking is *here*. Bitcoin is ..... *here*. And the ideal that I am describing is ................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................. *here*. So yes, there is a long way to go. And maybe it will be a completely different model that ends up revolutionizing the industry, but I am pretty sure there will be a revolution.
 
Just unloaded all mine. Thanks for the update. I wasn't keeping track.

digital currency is the future. I wish I never sold my bitcoins 5 years ago :(
 
Now is definitely the time to sell if you've been sitting on Bitcoin unless you're playing a very very very long game. Could it keep going up? Yes. Is it likely to crash back down soon? Yes. Will it probably increase way past where it is right now someday? Probably but I just doubled my money. If you can, you probably should.
