Do you even know what a Ponzi scheme is? Threads here have got real fucking dumb. How is it possible to confuse the evolution of digital payments and distributed ledgers as some sort of financial scam? Just fuck off.

You're going to have your utility companies using the Ethereum blockchain in 2019 and you'll be calling it some sort of scam. This isn't 2010 anymore, you can't call Bitcoin anything but what it actually is, an incorruptible, unstoppable digital currency.

>>1211515

Just to add something else. Here's how things have happened.

>Bitcoin released, years of experimenting and use and vetting, proven concept with some flaws.

>Few years later Ethereum is thought up, takes the concept of the blockchain and harnesses its power to create a decentralized world which runs on less resources, is immutable and more intelligent than the antiquated band-aid fixes of systems running the world today, it works for the average person and a multi-billion dollar corporation.

>Bitcoin comes back into the spotlight as something which can work with the Ethereum platform hand-in-hand, Bitcoin was previously just a cryptocurrency with nothing to really run on, Ethereum gave Bitcoin a platform to live on essentially

Both will rocket in value close to the end of this year.

Takes time to get the application platform & functional aspects of the network up & running. There's plans in place to use it to more or less automate the payment functions for ridesharing, airBnB, etc. It's basically in the development phases of becoming the go-to currency for the sharing economy, and a lot of that stuff will be going live in Q3/Q4 2016.

Yes, everything plus more. You haven't even touched on anonymity which will be provided through ring signatures and vitalik has already talked about zk snarks.

I bought Bitcoin to use it to pay for Modafinil from ModafinilCat to get the discount.

I had about $20 in BTC after the transaction, it was about 2 months ago.

Now it says I have over $400 in BTC, and I've been receiving a lot of small payments of about $4 each.

Is this shit normal?
