Tämä artikkeli ei ole Forbesin vakituiselta Bitcoin-blogaajalta vaan toiselta kirjoittajalta. Kyseessä on eräs teknologian ja talouden toimittaja, joka oli skeptinen Bitcoinista vuonna 2011, mutta on sen jälkeen hehkuttanut sitä paljon. Kirjoittanut artikkeleita Bitcoinista mm. Ars Technicassa.
“So is the new Bitcoin price rise a bubble? I don’t think so. Nothing like Bitcoin has ever existed before, so it’s not clear how to compute a “fundamental” value for it. But I think it helps to imagine if Bitcoin were a startup company rather than a peer-to-peer network. Bitcoin, Inc. would have a radically new technology, thousands of loyal customers, and a growing community of other venture-backed startups building products and services on top of the infrastructure it provided. Such a company would have venture capitalists beating down its doors.”
