A seven-year crypto veteran argues Bitcoin won't become everyday currency. Instead, blockchain becomes invisible infrastructure inside banks, powering new services users never know are there, like how you drive without understanding the engine.
Chapters
The smart people have realized that you're not going to convince the world to use Bitcoin as their currency or any cryptocurrency as their currency. The smart people in crypto know, and who have been here for years— I've been in for 7 years— they know that you need to change the financial plumbing. So they don't need to know how every part in the car works, but they drive it every day. Same thing with the banking system. You have no idea. You have, you know, one— you don't know 1% of how the banking system actually functions, but you use it every day. So one day they will wake up and cryptocurrency/blockchain, you know, DLT, Interledger Protocol, etc., will be underlaying, underlying their banking system. They won't even know it, and there will simply be new amazing services that they can use.
