[2018-08-22] Apple Co-Founder: Crypto World “Like the Internet When it was Brand

As most of us here, I believe that this is true and we are still in early satages of blockchain evolution. I would like to add that there is no doubt that ICOs at this current form will not last long, there is too little that investors gain after buying tokens, just the potenital of profit and sometimes there is some very little use for them.

Note that it would not be fair to compare the internet's evolution time scale to blockchains . It is possible that blockchain is evolving in slower pace.

I agree. Certainly in 2010 and 2011, it felt like the internet in 1992 and 1993.  It seems more like the late 1990s right now, but that was still a great time to be involved.

Absolutely. In fact, we are in a funny situation when some people still don't know that there's no future without crypto, while others, who know this, think it's too late to jump in. I remember talking to a guy in May 2017, when Bitcoin was $1,700+, and he said to me that he would definitely buy if BTC was below $1k but not when it was at its "peak price". Well, it was the peak price at the time, but we all know what happened next.

The people with that type of attitude are the ones who look to buy something else to speculate in. I also had the same type of thinking towards bitcoin when I invested in Aeon for the first time. I thought bitcoin was overpriced and looked at altcoins. What a mistake hehehe.

Shit do happens and I believe most of us did really commit this kind of mistake which is inevitable.Due to unpredictable nature of bitcoins potential these are most likely to happen.Its too late to regret but it wont really be a late time for you to set yourself in with the trend.I completely agree that BTC is really going the same path wayback when Internet was just starting up.

Yeah, I too made couple of mistakes like that. Only I wasn't buying other cryptos but was selling BTC when it hit $620. After more than a year of BTC staying under $300 I thought it was a great price to sell. Now I know it was a big mistake, considering that I even didn't need the $200 I got from selling my 0.3 at the time, I just thought Bitcoin would go under $300 again soon. Steve Wozniak wouldn't do that. As I see from the article he believes in Bitcoin with all his heart. And here's what he said in his earlier interview in June:

"Bitcoin, because it is regulated in its quantity, it's down to supply and demand. And as more and more people want it and demand it... there's no extra supply. It's limited. In terms of dollars, Bitcoin will go up and up over time."

If there are people worth listening to, I think Wozniak is definitely one of them.
