I came across a statement from legendary security software pioneer John McAfee:
"In five years’ time, over half the world, I promise you, will be using cryptocurrency," the legendary security software pioneer told RT correspondent Miguel Francis-Santiago during the Asia blockchain cruise hosted by CoinsBank. "And the half that does not is going to be the half that probably doesn't have smartphones or any access to the internet," McAfee added.
And by this statement McAfee joins the company of Kaspersky, the other antivirus guru.
While I have nothing against such reasonings, and I hope they come eventually true, I don't consider those two gentelmen experts on pricing assets Smiley

It seems to be real considering current criptocurrency expansion in the world. The main barrier for criptocurrency expansion is limited internet access in some countries

I think he is right. People always want to take the easiest, fastest and most convenient way to do things.


Well, there are fast and convenient ways to send money within seconds or hours to other parts of the world. The most interesting in crypto currency for those who like to gamble is the volatility I guess. And that's also the main reason why it is not trusted by most part of the public. imho
