Topics
Bob Burnett: 本人认为技术专家需要结合科技发展和社会结构变化进行思考,跳出西方思维模式,预见问题比解决问题更重要。比特币的技术应用目前落后于投资兴趣,仍处于早期阶段,类似于个人电脑时代的DOS界面。除了作为矿工奖励和新币发行机制,比特币的区块补贴也为用户提供了免费使用基础层的时期。比特币的普及程度可以通过相关会议和聚会的减少来衡量。在快速发展的行业中,保持创新和财务健康非常困难,很多曾经的巨头企业都因此失败。成功的公司往往难以颠覆自己,即使这意味着扼杀自己的‘摇钱树’。 Cedric Youngelman: 就比特币技术采用现状、未来区块奖励构成、区块空间的稀缺性以及国家间的潜在冲突等问题与Bob Burnett进行了深入探讨,并就个人电脑行业发展历程与比特币发展趋势进行了类比,探讨了区块空间的商品属性及其衍生品交易的可能性,以及各国如何通过发展比特币挖矿基础设施来维护金融主权。
