Bloomberg is talking about bitcoin being more than just a currency.  That bitcoin is rather more like 'The Internet of Money'.  

I think this quote is attributed to Bitcoin business angels group BitAngels - David Johnston.  

It is actually a very interesting notion.  While the conventional Internet is a mechanism for doing many cool things with information (content), i.e. facebook, videos, email, Skype, MMOG, et cetera, bitcoin actually supports an infrastructure which will permit one to do so many cool things with value (money).  The "Internet of Money".  I like that.  

Obviously bitcoin is going to be insanely powerful in this regard.  I just hope it doesn't take 20 years the way it took the internet that long to get to where it is now.  (i.e. from 1994 / Netscape - Thanks Marc)
