I have a few thoughts on this. When I used e-mail in the early 90’s I
thought it was a cool piece of technology, however, it was completely
useless to me because nobody I knew was using it. Since I was using it
within a unix environment the interface was clunky and slow. By 1999
everyone I knew was using it and the interface was easy and web based. New
technologies always come with rough edges and it takes time before its
ready for the masses. With that said I think the bitcoin experience is
much better online then it is in stores and I think this would have been a
better story if the reporter had shown more of that.
Pity technology never develops, right?
The comparison of Napster and Bitcoin is apples to oranges. Bitcoin is
more like Bit Torrent.
Those four businesses probably didn’t even accept bitcoin a year ago.
Bitcoin IS growing.
Governments just need to adopt the technology & everything else will follow
If your currency needs a fan club it’s already got some problems.
Bitcoin is still as hilarious and worthless as usual, I see.
I predict that their conclusion is….. Bitcoin and every alternative to
the dollar is useless…. because we’re CNN, pro-money-printing yay. This
IS a new means of transacting, and because the govt is against it, it is
unlikely to be easy to use, duh. Maybe say that AFTER it gains widespread
use??
After watching the video, the conclusion that bitcoin bad was based on the
guy’s inability to scan a QR code properly (because retardation, or
purposeful idiocy), inability to fill an online form (ditto, it’s probably
a one-time thing), inability to use the internet to buy flowers(ditto,
seriously don’t you get their number from the internet to begin with?)
and the fact that 20 bucks of bitcoin will get you 1 lunch+ 1 limo ride +
flowers for wife+ drinks at the end of the day….. Seriously, Bitcoin
seems far cheaper than cash….. seems to be too little for this guy, and
he needed to purposely perform like a circus monkey for chump change at the
end JUST to highlight how useless they want us to think Bitcoin is. I mean,
CNN are basically circus monkeys paid to entertain, but I would not listen
to one for money advice.
I’m not even for Bitcoin, to me it’s got nothing backing it, yet CNN’s bias
seems a biiiit too obvious.
This is a crap hit piece. I live 100% on bitcoin by using a ShiftPayments
debit card. It connects directly to my Coinbase account, and I can buy
ANYTHING ANYWHERE.
QR codes are not bitcoin, it’s just ONE OF MANY ways to pay. There is
Bitpay’s NFC, debit card, and many other ways.
Nobody uses bitcoin ATMs. We buy it online closer to market rate. This guy
is clueless
