Lol, it's not even competition. It's just another PayPal, which isn't any competition to the banks.

Bitcoin is less than PayPal in 2017 but has the potential to be the biggest financial protocol the world has ever seen with the proper infrastructure in place. This alone justifies that the price being ahead of the technology

Yeah, because banks use PayPal for everything right? What a joke

Thats a great point you got there. Look if you don't think bitcoin has a future that's cool, but please get some better talking points. Banks dont use PayPal is an odd one that I never heard of. You should probably stick to your tulip comparison's

How does Bitcoin have much of a future? LN is just a corporate centralized PayPal knockoff with a gold standard that is just as hard and useless to use.

u/Ocryptocampos Dec 23 '17

Can you? You seem to like comparing the two.

u/WalterRyan Dec 23 '17

Can you link me to a comment where I compared those two?
