Bitcoin: How My Views, And the Currency, Have Changed During The Last Year

Exactly one year ago I embarked on a journey. I sat down to write my weekly column on Bitcoin for the first time. At the time I was somewhat skeptical. As somebody with a background in the interbank foreign exchange market, my interest at the time was almost purely that of a trader. This “new currency” had displayed remarkable volatility, and where there is volatility, there is potential for profit. Beyond that my knowledge was, I should say, somewhat limited and fairly typical. I had heard the bad stories: Mt. Gox’s collapse and various tales of criminals attracted to the anonymity that Bitcoin offered, but that was about it.

Its sad that it takes Big Banks "endorsement" to persuade the idiots to learn for themselves.
