Subject: Re: Crypto Capital
Going from memory, BTC doesn't generate any income so the price is throttled - Flipping gold is a 15X ... I'd be happy with that. Criminals use it - they mostly use the USD. Only a small percentage of BTC is used for illicit purposes ... who wants a permanent record of their crime? It's not money - of course it is. 10T in transactions, bigger than Visa. The next day Russia said they changed the law and will accept BTC for intl payments. That opens up a settlement channel for half the world. They'll soon run out of new "speculators." - Adoption is moving very quickly.
It's a very silly list, so no need to comment. You're a Believer, and nothing anyone will say will change that.
I do like this bit tho'

Hey, the good thing about the pervasive criminal transactions is that at least it's a real use case. I don't know of another.
