Winklevoss twins: Bitcoin will be bigger than Facebook. The brothers, two of the most influential players in a new generation of investors, say bitcoin will encourage financial openness.

i wonder what the twins are doing right now...



I bet they're not giving a fuck. I'm sure they can see the long term value.

Simply no way this ever happens.  Facebook is used by so many people it is actually insane.  Bitcoin should be proud if they get half of the people that Facebook has.

But a lot more people use cash than people use facebook.

All the time I read people are saying how such and such is damaging the reputation of Bitcoin dun dun duhhh. I just don't get it, Bitcoin doesn't need a 'good reputation' anymore than the Internet needed a good reputation to get it off the ground. Could it slow the progress of uptake? Sure but then who cares how slow it takes for people to get it.  Even MtGox in my opinion had no significant affect on Bitcoins success.  You can't have new developments and put them back in the bottle.


People need Bitcoin if they want to store their wealth, Bitcoin doesn't need people to like it. 

I agree that bitcoin's reputation can''t be helped in the minds of the ignorant and uneducated not does it matter, but at the moment bitcoin isn't a great store of wealth either but could be in the future. It's that future that I'm interested in personally.
