Why are you comparing regular models with Bitcoin? Why is this a bubble and not a mass adoption somewhere on Earth? What are the differences? How do you know now there are just people rushing in and not wider bitcoin usage?
Usage where and for what? I'm open to that notion but I have no news of such possibility. For what use are they being adopted that I'm unaware of?
Take-out food? Hard for us to guess what you are aware of, right?
By the way, after the dutch and german sites of lieferservice.de and thuisbezorgd.nl, the french, brittish and belgian versions of the site now also accept bitcoin.
Up till now fair numbers of bitcoiners might not have had a lot of money, so when they get some free from these background mined magical internets, they look to use them as they would other money – to get pizza and computers. Hey, that’s what money is, so it’s cool, but what’s the fuss right? Why would they be more useful than having real dollar or yuan?
However, there are other users on the horizon. People who have significant amounts of money and whose needs are different. They like to hold and control value without the say-so of banks or governments. They like to able to move significant chunks when they want to, to where they want. They love arriving at a different continent with as much money as they need encrypted in the cloud.
These people are currently giving early adopters shiney cars for their coins. Last year it was awesome gaming rigs with flashing lights, next year it’ll be houses. They thank the early adopters for refining protocols, for demonstrating the possibility of exchange via smartphones. They leave you their trinkets, and you think you’ve done well.
It’s giving away Manhattan all over again.
