When the internet was first came out there was a lot of big discussion about it. Its rubbish, it'll never work, its brilliant its going to change everything, its just a fad etc. Then one day we all started using it like it had been there all our lives. And now we can't imagine living without it.
Bitcoin and blockchain is seems to be following the same route. There's so much big discussion about cryptocurrencies but with scaling issues looking light they might be solved (with some currencies) and new blockchain platforms coming into the market could it be as early as next year when the big discussions cease and we all use the technology likes its always been there?
Today I bought something in a London market and said to the store holder you should take bitcoin and she said, 'yes it could be the future of money'. Then I bumped into someone I know and they said exactly the same thing after I mentioned something about bitcoin. This is a significant change in tone because even 4 months ago people usually said, its scam, its a bubble, be careful, I wouldn't invest in that etc.
If bitcoin is the body then internet is the soul of bitcoin because bitcoin could not survive without internet. The only thing u need to operate and use bitcoin is access to the internet and I guess this could be the most important reason that people in remote areas are completely unaware of bitcoin but I guess this is not the limitation of bitcoin because the world is about to digitalised and internet is the first requirement for everything so bitcoin and internet are two soulmates.
