Apple Founder Wants Bitcoin the World Single Currency

[Ravenzy666]

One of the founders of Apple, Steve Wozniak, said that he agreed with what had been revealed by Jack Dorsey, CEO of Twitter, about Bitcoin not long ago. At that time, Dorsey believed that Bitcoin would be the single currency in the world, and Wozniak also wanted it to happen.

"I agree with what Jack Dorsey said without needing to hope that it will happen, but because I want it to come true, it is a very pure thought," he said, as quoted by CNBC, Tuesday (5/6/2018).

"Bitcoin can be mathematically defined, there is a definite quantity, there is how it is distributed, it is very pure and there is no human behind it, no company runs it, it just keeps growing, growing and trying to survive," he added.

Wozniak himself had bought the most popular cryptocurrency when the price was still equivalent to USD 700 per chip, or USD 6,700 cheaper when compared to its value now referring to data from Coindesk. Even so, Wozniak is not interested in becoming a Bitcoin investor.

He also has sold all of his Bitcoin assets with only one chip left. The man who is often referred to as The Woz said he only wanted to do experiments on the technology.

In addition to having a piece of Bitcoin, the man who founded Apple with Steve Jobs in 1976 also has two Ethereum. Both Wozniak's cryptocureency is the owner of the largest market capitalization among other digital currencies. Bitcoin's market capitalization is almost touching USD 127 billion, while Ethereum is at USD 58 billion.

In addition to these two virtual currencies, there are more than 1,000 cryptocurrencies circulating in the world. Even so, Wozniak says Bitcoin is the only natural because it has aspects that make it a status, one of which has been decentralized.

All this talk of Bitcoin wealth ... I think it's time for me to take a break from the last 6 years of greed (oh, and greed) and think about health, wellness and basic relaxation man! Don't know about you guys, but I'm in London and going to book a 3 hour Sunday afternoon chill out by getting with my favourite mobile massage therapist from The Massage Rooms (https://www.themassagerooms.com) to visit me at my apartment. In fact, once I've used the net to make the booking, I'm switching off the router and the phone. Why switch off the router? Because when you switch it back on after the break, the 5 minutes it takes to log back in and update IP address etc is a wonderful slow introduction back to tech reality. Only problem is they don't accept Bitcoins for payment (yet!)

If this is true then this is good news for BITCOIN and those who are keeping bitcoin.
With the benefits of blockchain and bitcoin say it, the whole world should understand that and accept bitcoin as a form of universal payment.
To the extent that I believe the next few years will be the boom of bitcoin and other coin development.

[Veterock]

Steve Wozniak is a very competent specialist, he sees the prospects of blockchain, unlike Bill Gates. It's even interesting what caused such a hatred of Bill to the crypto currency.

[oceantiger]

That is the dream and aspiration of Satoshi  Nakamoto and his friends  that bitcoin will rule the world financially and that is when bitcoin will adequately empower the poor and liberate them from unfair world financial system.Hoping that bitcoin will ever remain decentralized.

[iamwagner]

Do you think there are pitfalls to having Bitcoin as the one world currency?  The tracking of every movement we make is a bit scary.  We are getting exactly what we are wishing for are we?  I can see the police raiding 5 year olds at lemonade stands for not paying taxes.

wozniak is an old man, he cant think clearly what consequenses his thoughts bring. he wants to enslave the world to the bitcoin miners asosiation, and waste the entire world electricity production for bitcoin mining, how stupid can someone be that says stuff like that.?

[marcitosi]

more and more often I meet offers in different forums and markets about buying and selling things for bitcoins. The fact that bitcoin is a world currency I'm sure

Like It could be worse than what it already is.

Please explain how could it be worse than our current situation? At least bitcoin supply is honest unlike FIAT supply. The game (bitcoin) is honest from the beginning. We know exactly how many bitcoins exist and will exist in the future and we can form our future financial strategies without worrying  of a change of plans.. If we move to bitcoin, we won't care about the interest rates of a central bank anymore.

I like what Wozniak says but the problem here is, the world isn't ready.

First people should completely understand the major scam called FIAT and the best way to understand that crap for those people, is losing money.

Bitcoin will get bigger and bigger and even bigger. Just like how I bought coins from 3k, 5k, 10k and even 15k; there will be a fucking time where people willingly pay 100k and more for a bitcoin.

[d5000]

A bit outdated news/information, but regardless i'm strongly disagree with his opinion since Bitcoin don't have some interesting features that other cryptocurrency offer such Smart Contract from Ethereum & anonymity and fungiblity from Monero.

Which both have flaws that a "pure currency" may want to avoid (and Bitcoin avoids "on purpose"):
- Ethereum's Turing complete smart contracts "invite" to try out elaborated scam schemes like the DAO "hack" and thus compromise the immutability of the contracts and the currency system as a whole.
- Monero's ring-signature transactions are substantially larger than Bitcoin's transactions, having consequences for scalability.

I however disagree with him, too - I simply think there will be always incentives to try to compete with Bitcoin trying to establish other currencies. Bitcoin's leadership in the cryptocurrency space however may continue for decades, and even may rival fiat currencies, once the most important usability, scalability and security issues have been solved. But leadership is still a bit different from monopoly.

[baby02]

I agree, bitcoin is the only coin or currency suitable to used in the world today, because it ia already proven ny some countries who already accept and legalized bitcoin. Just imagine you can go anywhere without worry because you dont't need to change fiat money, more convinient and worry  free.

[CAPTEZECC]

One man's meat is another man's poison. While some people are protesting and campaigning against bitcoin some other personalities are supporting bitcoin to be endorsed as a global currency. This whole clash of interest can make a newbie confuse

[samiul12]

Is is exceptionally a great news for the btc holders and followers because while some country making btc illegal there are some good thinker also. It will bring a lot of ups and downs in the market now because what he says is the future and if it happens the future will change a lot.

[kujaroth]

Bitcoin being the World Single Currency might not be the best idea so far. But if Bitcoin would become an World Online Currency then that would be a better idea. You can not just remove other World currencies and replace it something with a new one.

[SecureCryptoPayments]

As we know, Wozniak is a good engineer. But unfortunately not a strategist and a leader of opinion. He conducted his own experiment. Say thank you. But who will really tell a person to whose opinion you can listen in regard to bitcoin?

They wanted bitcoin then came up with apple pay.
This is older news many people thought apple were going to design a crypto wallet on the Iphone but we got shitty applepay instead.

They could have opted for diamonds but settled for apples

[AntonDalrymple]

Steve Wozniak is one of the most intellectual person all over the world and he wants bitcoin as a single because he must realize its possibilities and also its advantages.

[PhilipCornel01]

It is a very good news and what he expect is really a very useful and fruitful thought because in the future bitcoin will going to dominate the currency.
