I was so amazed to see their interview today after they presented their ETF project! They said if bitcoin market cap would be 400 billion if it becomes major among money transfer(visa,mastercard). marketcap would be in trillions if it disrupts Gold.. They hold 1% of all bitcoin total supply! They are taking bitcoin to wall street and comply with regulations to create the first ever ETF for bitcoin so all the banks and wall street major billionaires can now invest in bitcoin.. In the coming decentralized world which will be made up of key technologies like drones, 3d printing, autonomous agents we can be sure that the blockchain technology will be like how electricity was to the 20th century... bitcoin will be the token of value in future... they will be the masters of decentralized revolution!

Hmm.... market cap of $400b IF it becomes one of the major players in money transfer. I am skeptical. It has been 7 years already. The growth seems to be downward.  |

The Winklevoss twins have a track record of betting on the wrong horse.

It's possible, just possible. It would be one of the great undeserved level-ups  Don't mind me, just sour grapes  |

Calling them the Winklevii makes me think of them as conjoined twins.

Barons would be an ironic title in a decentralized ecosystem. They don't seem to have much interest in promoting Bitcoin unless I missed something.

They hold 1% of all bitcoin total supply!
They are taking bitcoin to wall street and comply with regulations to create the first ever ETF for bitcoin so all the banks and wall street major billionaires can now invest in bitcoin..
In the coming decentralized world which will be made up of key technologies like drones, 3d printing, autonomous agents we can be sure that the blockchain technology will be like how electricity was to the 20th century...
bitcoin will be the token of value in future...
they will be the masters of decentralized revolution!
Any sources on anything you've mentioned about them? |

If they were smart they would have sold when Bitcoin hit $1000, if they are still holding after that then they aren't good venture capitalists. |

Not so comfy on gold comparisons. There are substantial differences between a digital currency and cultural assets. Just pointing at those news regarding Tutankhamun's beard. |

If they were smart they would have sold when Bitcoin hit $1000, if they are still holding after that then they aren't good venture capitalists. theyre convinced a btc will be worth $40,000 so why would they sell for $1000 ? they do come across like assholes in that movie but did zuckerberg really steal their idea for facebook and develop it himself ? a judge must have believed they had some rights if they got $65,000,000 in compensation but i dont know the specifics ..... |

It just feels wrong to begin regulating Bitcoin. It will be diluted and mutated into a governmental financial instrument.

I think that is the combined market cap of Visa + Master + Paypal Right now the BTC market cap is around $4 billion. I'll be happy with $40 billion.  |

It's sound great, but I don't think it is possible.
If the market cap over 400B, it means about $30k per coin.
ATM, every day generate 3600,
So we have to cost 3600*30k=$108 mil per day to support the system.
Is that worth?

400 billion means $20,000 per Bitcoin , I highly doubt that it can be truth, We can hardly keep it above $1,000,not even $300.

The growth is taking a long time but still upward, its just complicated and no central authority to speed things up. We need bitcoin as easy to use as mastercard to get to those figures. |
