When people tell me bitcoin is in a bubble, and then I see that the ultimate Sherpa of bitcoin, Mr. AA averages less than 15,000 views per video - where he is literally spitting lightning and truth everywhere - I just laugh. Bitcoin is just getting started, and crypto is just warming up. Thank you Andreas for your continued message.
Agreed bud, nicely stated. Its great that bitcoin is where its at now, considering nothing main stream has even been involved yet. I think just now the regular folk outside of the technical space or interests, are beginning to become curious. Over the past month, I've had many people (of which i had mentioned bitcoin to years earlier) suddenly asking honest, and knowledge seeking questions about bitcoin. It's nice to see now and is a sign to me, that bitcoin is just beginning to wake the masses to its extreme potential. I'd say its still really early for bitcoin. Lets see what happens post Aug 1st, things still certainly need to be ironed out. I think that by 2020, bitcoin will either have been a great success (whether its main stream adopted or not), or it will be nothing / taken over by another crypto. P.S. Great and powerful talk, as usual by Mr. antonopoulos. So grateful to have someone be able to be so articulate about such a technical topic. Truly a superb presenter. I envy his public speaking skills, for that is my weakest skill set in life.
I never thought a talk on cryptographic token-money could give me goosebumps - andreas makes sure nobody misses the point about the game-changer in town - now all we need to get is segwit...and if not by MASF then by UASF...kinda annoyed by miners stalling progress in bitcoin..phenomenal speech though..
It’s crazy to realize everyone here in the comments section is way ahead of the everyday person when it comes to the future of money. With cryptocurrencies and blockchain in the news everyday you would think after 10+ years (bitcoin birth 2008) that people would think this is not going anywhere. It’s not a bubble. It’s not just pure hype. It is the future.
I really like Vitalik's comment about MOE, SOV and UOA I think he's hitting the head on the nail. I started thinking about money as a property of a manufactured thing, in a continuum. For example, for most people a factory won't ever have much moneyness because it doesn't work well at MOE SOV and UOA. For some people used cars provide some amount of those properties, and for most people most of the time things like US dollar bills, gold coins and crypto coins have quite a lot of those properties.
You are both incorrect. There will, soon, no longer ever be a centralized authority on ANYTHING and I'm sure AA would want nothing to do with presidencies or elected officials. He lives and breathes decentralization, free market and innovation without permission. DECENTRALIZE EVERYTHING!
Here's an interesting challenge for crypto currencies. People tout its affordability for large transactions, but it seems the fixed network fee makes it unaffordable for small transactions. Bitcoin now costs $2.91 USD to transmit a packet from wallet to wallet... not much if I am transferring $100s 0r $1000s, but a huge penalty if I am transmitting $10 or $1. To be useful in a cashless society, transmitting fees will need to scale DOWN for small transactions, or Mom and Pop will be locked out by what is perceived as a high cost of using it.
Could this be another attempt to engineer human interaction which will have unforseen devastations to human existence (due to our inability to see into the future like the atomic/nuclear bombs or engineered seeds by Monsanto, Du Pont, etc?????????????
"Engineed currency designed by a ragtag group of anarchist cypherpunk misfits who don't give a shit about your business plan, about (...) whether the regulators will legitimize and add credibility and accept" Fuck yeah, Andreas.

Thank you Andreas! Inspirational talk!
Great Talk!
The most amazing crypto speaker in the world ;-)
Top draw again. Cheers. Appreciate the information and insight.
AA 4 Pres!!!!
Presidents are so 20th century. AA for board of elected governing officials, whom work for and fear scrutiny from the people.
You are both incorrect. There will, soon, no longer ever be a centralized authority on ANYTHING and I'm sure AA would want nothing to do with presidencies or elected officials. He lives and breathes decentralization, free market and innovation without permission. DECENTRALIZE EVERYTHING!
Man Could AA possibly be a more inspiring Public Speaker
Andreas' best talk.
great video ! powerful
Great talk! THX
this is still such a good preso Andreas !! It's time to innovate out belief system relating to money
Μπράβο Αντρέα.
well explained,
powerful antonopoulos!!
20:08 - there's a hard edit mid-sentence with some of the talk missing - any clues anyone ? "It's already better, .." (cut) "..a lot of the systems.."
Yes. I'd like to know also.
with so many scaling debate and persistent to conduct fork on the systems how strong this engineering money will store values?
Andreas = Genius
Brilliant!!!
An eloquent genius!
What an Amazing stuff.
great stuff
love you, man

"You have to tell where you spend my taxes! I don't have to tell you shit about how I spend my money!" 19:00
Impressive!
Hug stones are scarce? I didn knew that.
mate, how much was the speaking fee?
It would really hurt a lot of people to hear all these truth about "money" :)
Where can u buy cup of coffee with bitcoin?
I think he uses a Shift card to spend his bitcoin. He showed it to Joe Rogan when he was being interviewed by Joe.
count me in
