I never thought it was a scam but more of a leaky bucket sure. To assume its perfectly built and fit to withstand all the elements thrown against it is a big leap. Im aware of PGP since the 1990's and I signed the petition for that encryption to be free and I transported it myself across borders as per the demonstration at that time. Its unfortunate I did not make more of a link between the two that bitcoin was enforcing a form of personal security online and so very useful and quite unique.
So I knew and I didnt know. I also used one of the first version of MS windows, I always thought DOS was better but it was good for Desktop publishing and I knew it had potential with a general population over just computer 'experts'. Any time you can normalise advanced technology, it will be massive. Apparently I dont learn but I do keep repeating whenever I can to anyone with good ideas here, usability is everything if you want success globally. Dont be elitist in product design
