that governments, banks and investment firms messes up the economy and make our lives difficult,
bitcoin is an effort to take them out of the equation
If this financial guy actually understands "bitcoin", he would stop bragging about $4.5 billion transactions and Morgan Stanley. This guy say he is "passionate about BTC". Passionate about making money from bitcoins, or passionate about helping the community?
Not bragging, I was asked.
I believe banks, governments and investment firms mess up the economy also. But I also think it's naive to think that something with a market cap of $10 Bn is going to simply skip all mainstream financial systems to achieve this growth.
For BTC to have anything close to a real and significant market cap then it needs to be easy for people to buy using vehicles they understand.
One can hope that the dentist in San Diego who heard about it on the news will learn hoe to buy exposure to BTC or one can make a simply public vehicle so that he can buy that from the broker he's worked with for 2@ years.
As far as making money from Bitcoin, of course I am -- I want to see them grow and succeed and I want early adopters to be rewarded. Anyone who doesn't want them to be a real part of the economy, to grow or to make money certainly has that right.
