Title: Winklevii will become one of great capitalist barons of this century! Post by: cuddaloreappu on January 27, 2015, 08:06:22 AM I was so amazed to see their interview today after they presented their ETF project!
They said if bitcoin market cap would be 400 billion if it becomes major among money transfer(visa,mastercard). marketcap would be in trillions if it disrupts Gold.. They hold 1% of all bitcoin total supply! They are taking bitcoin to wall street and comply with regulations to create the first ever ETF for bitcoin so all the banks and wall street major billionaires can now invest in bitcoin.. In the coming decentralized world which will be made up of key technologies like drones, 3d printing, autonomous agents we can be sure that the blockchain technology will be like how electricity was to the 20th century... bitcoin will be the token of value in future... they will be the masters of decentralized revolution! http://money.cnn.com/2015/01/27/investing/bitcoin-winklevoss-twins-gold/ (http://money.cnn.com/2015/01/27/investing/bitcoin-winklevoss-twins-gold/) Title: Re: Winklevii will become one of great capitalist barons of this century! Post by: bryant.coleman on January 27, 2015, 08:16:23 AM Hmm.... market cap of $400b IF it becomes one of the major players in money transfer.
I am skeptical. It has been 7 years already. The growth seems to be downward. >:( Title: Re: Winklevii will become one of great capitalist barons of this century! Post by: freequant on January 27, 2015, 08:20:33 AM The Winklevoss twins have a track record of betting on the wrong horse.

Title: Re: Winklevii will become one of great capitalist barons of this century! Post by: bryant.coleman on January 27, 2015, 09:36:43 AM 400 billion, I just wonder how they calculate and get the number, but I have confidence on this too I think that is the combined market cap of Visa + Master + Paypal Right now the BTC market cap is around $4 billion. I'll be happy with $40 billion. ;D Title: Re: Winklevii will become one of great capitalist barons of this century! Post by: Ingatqhvq on January 27, 2015, 10:19:06 AM It's sound great, but I don't think it is possible.
If the market cap over 400B, it means about $30k per coin. ATM, every day generate 3600, So we have to cost 3600*30k=$108 mil per day to support the system. Is that worth? Title: Re: Winklevii will become one of great capitalist barons of this century! Post by: innocent93 on January 27, 2015, 10:31:54 AM 400 billion means $20,000 per Bitcoin , I highly doubt that it can be truth, We can hardly keep it above $1,000,not even $300.
Title: Re: Winklevii will become one of great capitalist barons of this century! Post by: zetaray on January 27, 2015, 10:34:15 AM It is a big IF, and if it becomes major, when will that be?

The growth seems to be downward. >:( The growth is taking a long time but still upward, its just complicated and no central authority to speed things up. We need bitcoin as easy to use as mastercard to get to those figures. Title: Re: Winklevii will become one of great capitalist barons of this century!

Saying there was no growth in Bitcoin in the last year is just wrong. Also: It is stupid to make an assumption on future price based on past price, I even made a thread regarding this question: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=927769.0 (No idea, why it was moved to Speculation :( ) Title: Re: Winklevii will become one of great capitalist barons of this century!

The EFT just replaces the money they spent on BTC. If they break BTC, its no worries for their pocketbooks point to winklevii and before you all start saying "but its a regulated ETF, they cant manipulate..." its wallstreet, if there is money to be made, they will squeeze every penny out. no matter the ethics, rules, laws, or "love of the technology" these two guys might kill BTC, and I think they might just have the blessing of the powers that be.

Actions always speak louder than words, it's like listening to Paypal bitch about how they love Bitcoin so much and are going to implement it then never do anything and Overstock comes along and just slots it in because they were actually getting it set up instead of going on a PR tour.

Is this realistic or the Winklevii are aiming too high? http://worldbitcoinnetwork.com/BitcoinPriceModel-Alpha.html Title: Re: Winklevii will become one of great capitalist barons of this century! Post by: CtrlAltBernanke420 on January 30, 2015, 12:36:00 AM I was so amazed to see their interview today after they presented their ETF project! They said if bitcoin market cap would be 400 billion if it becomes major among money transfer(visa,mastercard). marketcap would be in trillions if it disrupts Gold.. They hold 1% of all bitcoin total supply! They are taking bitcoin to wall street and comply with regulations to create the first ever ETF for bitcoin so all the banks and wall street major billionaires can now invest in bitcoin.. In the coming decentralized world which will be made up of key technologies like drones, 3d printing, autonomous agents we can be sure that the blockchain technology will be like how electricity was to the 20th century... bitcoin will be the token of value in future... they will be the masters of decentralized revolution! If they were smart they would have sold when Bitcoin hit $1000, if they are still holding after that then they aren't good venture capitalists. How do you sell 1% of bitcoin without bringing the market to .01 Title: Re: Winklevii will become one of great capitalist barons of this century!

What would be the price of 1 coin if Bitcoin reaches 1 trillion marketcap? Is this realistic or the Winklevii are aiming too high? http://worldbitcoinnetwork.com/BitcoinPriceModel-Alpha.html Are Winklevoss tripping when they aim for a trillion dollar marketcap??
