In terms of making Bitcoin more easy to use I agree with him. I mean the Iphone wasn't the first smart phone.But it was the first self-explaining and simple to use smartphone.Plus the cool design that made it so successful.
Antonopoulos said similiar things.Bitcoin needs to be simple in use and design.

It does need to become hassle free and a bit easier to pick up for those just finding out about it.  Once all the horror stories cease in the press showing the negative uses for Bitcoin and start promoting positive uses it will help to bring people in.  Companies such as Coinbase to help to make it an easy process to setup an account, download an app and start using Bitcoin straight away.

Comparing Bitcoin with token-ring is not the route we want to follow... We want to be the TCP/IP of the world.  ::) He has a point about the user friendly problems associated

with the technology, but it's getting easier by the day, with Applications incorporating Bitcoin seamlessly. Who needs Steve Jobs, when we have Satoshi  ::) He kicks ass, and

he is not even here.  ;D Let the technology, sell it self.
