And what technology pray tell would facilitate this leapfrogging ? I and many others have known this for quite some time. The technology has outperformed every financial instrument in the last year and is poised to change everything in the financial sector.
The technology is Bitcoin and the protocol has merged digital signatures, point to point networking, a distributive autonomous blockchain and a proof of work system all working together to prevent double spending.
