RE: Cryptocurrencies: The revolution will not be televised! It will be Steemed!

Certainly, there will be obstacles, resistance, and regulation (when possible) of cryptocurrencies, but those hindrances will not be able to stop the growth and adoption of cryptos.

As Roger Ver always says re bitcoin, "There's nothing they can do to stop it." They may be able to slow it, regulate certain aspects of it, ban certain activities related to it, and get "respected" spokesmen such as Jamie Dimon to make pronouncement that strike FUD into the hearts of the people. But they will not stop it.

Thanks for the excellent article and the great read. You cover some salient points, and the writing is very clear and focused.

Let's continue steeming the revolution!

Create FUD and False flags.. most all they can (try) to do.

Thanks for reading @majes.tytyty .... I actually was not aware of Roger Ver thanks for the reference, just did a little googling... interesting character indeed. Not sure what the episode about his selling explosives on eBay was about, but things are not always what they appear.

They call him "Bitcoin Jesus," cuz he was one of the first ones who began to avidly evangelize about bitcoin. That was back in the dawn of (crypto) history.

As for the "explosives" issue, I don't know a lot either, but I believe the story is that he may have been framed, simply because he was too vocal re his non-government leanings.

(Also, he was one of the guys behind the bitcoin fork in early August, the fork that created Bitcoin Cash. According to him, Satoshi's original ideal of a purely peer-to-peer currency is being compromised with recent developments in bitcoin, and he and a few other players forked to Bitcoin cash, which is intended to remain true to the ideal of being peer-to-peer.

One major point to consider in that regard is that Bitcoin already has 8 years of infrastructure built to suppor it. Bitcoin Cash has none.)
