RE: Bitcoin whitepaper. I recommended @longsilver read it today, and I hadn't done so. Now I have. It's only 9 pages! Get to it! :)

That seems a little low. Seriously. It has gone up over 20x during 2017. It's only at 0.5% user adoption, just like email was in 1997 -- I wrote a post on the meme I had seen with that comparison:

If adoption continues at the current rate, 20x here would be $400,000, approaching McAfee's line in the sand.

I think adoption will accelerate. But, I've been wrong a lot. :)
