I don't think bitcoin is the technology that will reshape the future, but the blockchain tech might. It has the potential of completely change the scenario of modern society.
Agree. BTC has some fundamental flaws, that won’t let in become the “best” untill they are solved.
it definitely has the potential to shape the financial sector. bitcoin is open source which makes it perfectly fine to insert changes needed to make it more user friendly and future proof.
Im willing to think that Bitcoin will win in the end, but don't underestimate how dumb the average joe can be. Just look at Apple or Microsoft, they are the leading in Smartphones and PC OS respectively, and they closed source. Meanwhile Linux still lags behind. So open source is not a ultimate indicator of mainstream success, unfortunately.
