585  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: What litterature to include for master thesis about Bitcoin? on: October 30, 2013, 08:47:31 PM
How many times can a person spell literature incorrectly in a post about a master thesis?


During the next six months, I am going to make a master thesis about Bitcoin.

Currently my working title is "Bitcoin as a disruptive technology". My main hypothesis is Bitcoin is changing the value chain in finance, which basically means huge disruptions can, and probably will, happen.

However, I would love to hear YOUR thoughts! I need a shitload of litterature, and I am currently collecting that. So far I've basically taken all the top 10 papers on Google Scholar about Bitcoin (the official paper, two Bitcoins at the price of one, how to make Bitcoin a better currency) and some others.

I am not trying to cover Bitcoin from a technical angle (besides 5-10 pages which is necessary to understand its implications), but from a business+society angle.

- What litterature would you include? Any ideas is MUCH welcome and appreciated Smiley
Protip: english is not the only language of the world.

Cheers for keeping on top of the news Arvicco. It's becoming a full-time job these days!

Yeah, it's not like the olden days when Bitcoin highlight in a high-profile TV show was a cause for a month-long celebration and a full-blown  price rally! Wink

The problem appears to be the company's expectations for 2014 costs to comply with increased legal and regulatory requirements in countries where it does business. Here is what Western Union had to say about these costs:

While the Company has increased its investments in compliance considerably in recent years, significant additional investment in 2014 is now anticipated in light of the current environment and our internal reviews of the increasingly complex and demanding global regulatory requirements. … Western Union expects its compliance related expenses to increase from approximately 2.5% of revenue in 2013 to a range of approximately 3.5% to 4.5% of revenue in 2014, based on preliminary reviews of the programs
Ouch

That is why bitcoin is so much better

According to these statements Bitcoins are officially recognized as local currency without any special compliance or licensing requirements. As it now stands, trading with bitcoins in the Netherlands is legally no different from barter with sticks of butter, plastic chips or bottles of beer.

Right now anyone with a Dutch bank account can buy bitcoins online in real time without any registration process
Much much better than the usa dictator...erh... regulations

My gut is telling me that Bitcoin will likely crash (or be forced to crash) at some point, and whatever comes after will probably have more long-term success
What about no.
