Co-founder of Bitcoin Foundation, Jon Matonis: Bitcoin Is Not a Bubble!

Since the beginning of this year, or more specifically after the Bitcoin’s  $20 000 highs of the last December, the world of cryptocurrency has been one of the hottest topics.

With their eyes wide open, financial regulators from all the globe and the network platforms owners have been getting into the cryptocurrency space subject. And along the way, they have been taking precautious moves and strict regulations on the grounds that they intend to protect consumers from scams and sustain a balanced economy.

Accordingly, people from outside the crypto community called the current market situation “a bubble” as compared to the Dotcom Bubble of late 90’s. They believe that Bitcoin along with the other cryptocurrencies are just bubbles that will burst at any time.

A few years down the path, AI markets are beating all records of growth. Expected to expand to $10.5 Trillion by 2020, AI is disrupting most aspects of life on earth. It’s upgrading commerce, healthcare, transportation and even criminology. It’s not a contender in a chess game anymore. More of an ally of silicon and steel with a soul anchored in algorithms and big data for blood.

Having said that, only high tech giant like Google, Amazon, and Facebook seem to have a say in leading these algorithms. This is mainly due to the huge initial capital expenditures and the market entry barriers.

But Blockchain startups are increasingly taking part in the picture as we speak. This article focuses on Effect.Ai, an Amsterdam based startup that leverages the capabilities of NEO’s blockchain in AI development and AI related services. Let’s begin with a brief presentation.

The first seeds of economic decentralization “supposedly” started when Uber has disintermediated transportation. Airbnb also made similar disruptions in the lodging sector!  And yet, if we take a closer look, we’ll see that nothing is being “decentralized” here!

The people behind Uber and Airbnb only realized that the core value of these markets lies upon the network effect of their users, rather than the cost of physical assets that they own or expend. Likewise, these latter are operating through centrally controlled platforms in a way that users have no means of participating in the value creation reaped from their use.

Are we still talking about decentralization ?
