"Truth be told, if you are not tech savvy at all, both payment systems are incredibly difficult to use." - bullshit. Since when scanning a qr code with my phone is difficult. We are not talking about tracing transactions via blockchain.

Agreed. I think people who complain it's too difficult to use haven't really tried it. People make it out to be more complicated than it is to use.

Told you Paypal was full of shit.

They might be full of shit but I don't think he's wrong on it "Doesn’t Threaten USD As A Reserve Currency”. Bitcoin will likely just be an experimental alternative.

I'm sure they say that but just wait until the economy collapses finally, Bitcoin will be one of the easiest scapegoats, very likely I think the government is going to claim that Bitcoin is the problem and that the people using it are causing the economy to collapse, which will of course be only half true.
