In the future, people will see #Bitcoin not as digital gold, or gold 2.0, or digital money, or an investment but simply as money. It will just be “the thing” they use to pay for goods/services and save in. In the future, there will be no need to explain what Bitcoin is.
The gap between the here and now and that future depends on plebs doing the missionary work of building the social network necessary to reach critical mass adoption.
