Jack C. Liu is head of international at OKCoin and OKLink. He is based in Beijing and previously held roles at Barclays Capital and bitcoin exchange Kraken. In this article, he explores whether the crypto industry should be pushing fiat wallets, rather than bitcoin wallets, if it wants digital currency to go mainstream.

I hope it will bring more adopter.
Your thought?
It is a common myth that Bitcoin is ruled by a majority of miners. This is not true. Bitcoin miners "vote" on the ordering of transactions, but that's all they do. They can't vote to change the network rules.

This article just blew my mind. Fiat wallets are THE THING that will transform the banking industry for good. Right now the only alternative to keeping wealth out of a bank is inconvenient, clumsy, and risky...who wants to keep significant amounts of cash at home?

A blockchain based wallet for fiat would provide us all an alternative to banks which would (eventually) force them to sit on the same side of the table as their customers, to eliminate hefty fees, to provide better rates for INTEREST!

Oh man, the possibilities are so grand. I can't wait for this to become reality.
