Ok that's more like it ^^, I guess they want to have a google wallet integration with email, not a bad idea when you have a strong ecosystem, but the security needs to be increased, Google has a head start on Facebook on this domain, I hear people wanting bitcoin on Amazon but if there is a company that would be interessted in the protocol, and open source it is google, why no one thinking about them

Google pretty much owns the world now unfortunately

yes there is an automate reading your mails and thanks to keywords and alghorithms ads are displayed for you in gmail, no one sees your emails and no sensible data is stored somewhere else, also they are clear about it, unlike some competitor that went all scroogled ads and then was found to be doing worst things

This photo is so fitting. You have to admit though that they are so good at what they do, in terms of making things easy and convenient to use for everyone. It is the best form of surveillance that they could ever hope for. Google along with social media basically have the majority of the world freely volunteering all of their personal information.

If one of these major tech companies start their own virtual coin that is much more easily accessed by the masses unlike Bitcoin and other coins, then the old Cryptocurrency world as we know it could collapse... Or they could become collectibles that are still worth something because people 100 years from now will be like "You have a bitcoin? Those are so ancient! Worth thousands of xxxcoins today!" but then the Bitcoin network could be down by then, who knows? What do you mean that they don't? That openly admit that they are scanning users emails for advertising purposes.
Yeah scanned by their computer programs and algorithms, they're not reading them out loud to themselves for fun. Google is a large company, most likely they have guidelines on the email process so that no non-admin can read the emails, which admins have access to just in case the government asks for information. But think about it, there are over 400 million GMail users, you think they would really single you out, out of all the millions of emails sent every minute?

I don't think people would be more ready to accept GoogleCoins over bitcoins to be honest, they'll have a hard time marketing such a thing. Not to mention if they hoped to make it mainstream and launch it all over the world, all the law works etc would be massive.

No one was using their Google Plus product, but everyone was using their Youtube product. They needed more Google Plus members, so what do they do? Force it upon everyone. If they get a bigger market using Google Wallet than paypal, all they have to do is do the same thing, force people to use their new xxxcoin and people will not be the wiser. Plus if they make it easy and convenient to use, much like visiting a website, yet extremely secure, wouldn't you want to give it a try? Then when you find out it's more convenient than your old cryptocoins, you would be like, maybe I should just keep using it.

We have had a hard time due to mainstream society and people in general not being ready for such a technological step. I'm not saying Google doesn't have an increased chance at being successful, but they can't just do it overnight. It'd take ages for them to develop it, test it, make sure everything is alright to launch in every country etc etc. The people using Bitcoins don't really seem to care about those things. My point is it'd probably take several years for google to actually come up with something equal to bitcoins, and by then hopefully we've grown to a point where they won't be able to compete with us.
