While the efficiency, as well as security concerns of bitcoins, have always been debatable, it has actually led to a division of the market into halves. Where the first half believes in the potentiality of , the other half doesn’t seem to be much convinced.
Keeping in mind the other half, that never believes that can actually have a great impact in the future, the market saw a major statement that came from this half of the market.
, an Australian entrepreneur recently published a really bold manifesto that wholeheartedly argues that will no longer survive in the market. In order to prove his statement, Wright mentioned that will soon disappear as it is now being used to facilitate criminal activities. He further said that because of its excessive use in illegal activities, it doesn’t fit perfectly with the actual vision of .

When those involved altered the rules, they impacted their entire ecosystem — it is a centralised power structure. They defraud you when they lie about decentralisation and tell you that they have no ability to change things but then alter the rules.”
“When those in power are able to change the protocol, they can change the lives and the finances of those involved in the system at an arbitrary whim. It is why is not .”
