Marc Andreessen: In 20 years, we’ll talk about Bitcoin like we talk about the Internet today

http://www.washingtonpost.com/blogs/the-switch/wp/2014/05/21/marc-andreessen-in-20-years-well-talk-about-bitcoin-like-we-talk-about-the-internet-today/

The first part of the article focuses more on the future of the internet regarding other nations' responses to NSA spying on the world and the degrading trust in U.S. tech giants.

The second part of the article focuses on... Bitcoin!

Bitcoin mining is now a specialized and very risky industry, just like gold mining. Amateur miners are unlikely to make much money, and may even lose money. Bitcoin is much more than just mining, though!

The media seems to be positive on BTC now.  Smiley
In 20 years, Marc Andreessen will be remembered as someone who had the courage to embrace BTC before many others in his status/position.

He has a knack for explaining Bitcoin simply, also his NYT article of a few months ago was very good.

Let's hope he is right and that most importantly most of the socially valuable use cases of bitcoin play out to plan
Moderately sceptical still but hopeful at the same time
