Obviously it will fail. It doesn’t even have a centralized bank. That’s all there is to it.

LOL! I logged into YouTube just to make this comment, but glad you made it first. This Cohn guy doesn’t have a clue. Scary to have someone this uninformed acting like an expert.

He does make some good points. What happens to the bitcoins of thousands of people who died without the keys being handed over to their heirs?

@Kay Realist It simply makes the supply less that 21million coins. You might be asking ‘that’s pretty stupid if we don’t know the exact figure of coins in circulation’ and in a sense you’re right. But it’s no stupider than being able to print infinite money in today’s financial system.
BTC will become digital gold. It’s the responsibility of CBDC’s / ETH to play the role of money in the future system. Bitcoin isn’t the answer to all our problems but it’s certainly a step in the right direction and is definitely worth holding.

@Max Welch I guess it could become digital gold if enough people adopt the idea and buy into it. A digital coin backed by nothing but the miners seem to easy to replicate. Why couldn’t another coin say backed by JPM be more intriguing? Just as the dollar is backed by the US government. Plus, the lack of oversight with the coin would keep many investors at bay I would assume. Who goes after the bad guys who scam people out of bitcoins? Why couldnt Visa and Mastercard get into creating their own coins?

These are like gold/silver coins minted by a private institution/bank. Once you have those gold coins, they’re owned by you and it’s purity is enough to make it valuable for you to transact, because the supply is going to be limited. You don’t have to worry about how much gold/silver is stashed somewhere. If there’s a shortage (not enough liquidity), you have platinum and palladium. Similarly, Bitcoin’s purity is ensured by the network of miners (you cannot transact other cryptocurrencies on its blockchain and you cannot forge it. Double spending and a few other attacks are possible but the security provided by the network is as good as that provided by special markings on fiat currency or gold/silver coins to prevent that from happening) and limited supply is ensured by the code the all the miners use and agree upon. If there’s a shortage, you have other cryptocurrencies, so you don’t have to worry about it being stashed or locked up somewhere. The purpose and participants of the transaction is also not known when you use cash or gold/silver coins, but they have been extremely successful (gold/silver backed cash being more successful than the fiat that we use now). So, this statement that the purpose of transaction (whether legitimate or not) has to be known for success, is false. There has been an evil socialist/communist/authoritarian attempt to implement modern monetary theory and invade into people’s privacy, for the purpose of choosing the winners and losers among corporations and taking away the freedom that people have, and this provides a hedge against it, just as much as other commodities and even cash.

Gary Cohn is not a Bitcoin expert. He’s a corrupt politician who is attempting to criticize Bitcoin, but his negative points apply much more to the U.S. dollar than to Bitcoin. Bitcoin has an open-source, public distributed ledger. The dollar does not. Bitcoin has a limited supply to maintain value. The dollar has an oversupply and rapidly diminishing value. The dollar is the #1 currency used by criminals worldwide. Bitcoin is not.
