Even though the news are excellent (if correct and the money gets properly used), I've been waiting for these companies "aiming" at mainstream BTC.
The adoption is picking up, but not quickly enough.
I understand the frustration in looking at the cash register at your local retail store, and only cash, credit, or Apple Pay is accepted, and Bitcoin is not even a consideration. We all know where we're at right now.
That said it's 2015. 6 years in. Google was founded in 1998. Honestly, I didn't really start using Google until like 2003-2004. Google was started in the dorm room of 2 dudes from Stanford. Their first rack servers were home made, no name brand ones they put together:
If they didn't receive seed funding similar to one that 21 just received, Google probably wouldn't still be around.
You guys seriously cannot be this jaded.
Investing and seed funding ---> Further Development and Marketing for Bitcoin ---> Consumers start hearing and using it
I know you guys all want cookies, but you gotta pre heat the oven first...
