Andreas is a master at insightful allegories  - This talk is ground-breaking ( especially in the light of all the data hacks that are growing daily on the incumbent financial/banking networks )
this message is the key wedge that will crack open the enclosed gatekeeper cartel and release the new money of the internet age
exciting times eh ?

ground breaking talk from Andreas - signals the end to any pretence that "gatekeepers" have any future in the age of blockchain innovation
RT, spread, repost ..
well done  - much respect

really interesting ideas niniyo

I have also been thinking alone similar lines too. i'm not a coder but an Arts Grad, but would love to help out in developing some of these idea further- and seeing where they might go.

I added some comments on an article in businessinsider.com on a classic 'bitcoin is a bubble' FUD post on 3rd March.

my last couple of paragraphs read

"All their attempts to try and define where bitcoin fits therefore in our existing money-market structures will never understand that it is the FUTURE where bitcoin actually lives. ie it is an idea well ahead of the curve - so far ahead that they can't understand its relevance.

The real relevance of the blockchain lies in the future - when "intelligent machines" driven by algorithm controls will wander the world of the internet and will use 'electronic decentralised currency' to trade, gain access, share data etc.

bitcoin , or its off-springs, have to be that payment mechanism - as only decentralised incorruptible currency will be universally accepted by trans-national wandering bots."
