OP-ED: CRYPTOCURRENCY - A VENTURE PERSPECTIVE

"Imagine you were looking to invest your money in something, and you discovered a new type of asset class that had enormous potential, a growing fanbase, and consistently generated annual returns in excess of +100%, with steady historicals despite short-term volatility. Would you consider this a flailing asset solely on the basis of non-investor opinions and volatile day-to-day market activity? For assets such as Bitcoin, historical patterns show revolutionary growth prospects despite immense barriers. While many argue that these are the exact traits which secure its place in history as a giant bubble, what kind of bubble repeats itself over and over, literally rebounds from dead, and promises the potential of an entirely different future? The answer is, something that the market wants and or needs."
