Who here on FR has signed up for bitcoin? Any advice would be appreciated. Thanx.
I’ve been invested in Bitcoin for 2 1/2 years and believe we are a long way from the top.
If you are thinking the Bitcoin protocol is simply a currency you are already behind the curve. It’s real power is in its decentralizing characteristics which can extend to contracts, wills etc. etc. Imagine eliminating the need for third parties like large corporations, large governments and expensive attorneys with the use of mathematical algorithms.
If anyone is curious about Bitcoin this is one of the guys that explains it plainly and extensively:
