@bascule@Wombative Yeah, it's struggling to cross the chasm from early adopters to early majority. -
@kevinriggle@Wombative I think Bitcoin's slow transaction speed will keep it from ever seeing mainstream adoption... -
@kevinriggle@Wombative ...instead the "spawn of BitTorrent" (e.g. SCP) are more likely to be viable replacements to existing systems -
@bascule@Wombative Agree the second-gen systems look better, but I think speed is a secondary issue except inasmuch as it affects UX. -
@kevinriggle@Wombative who wants to wait around 10 minutes for a transaction to complete? It's a huge step backward in UX -
@bascule@Wombative Also there have to be compliance issues around speed, but you may know more about that than I do. -
@kevinriggle@Wombative the "debit card rails" account for those and provide much faster (albeit more expensive) transfers than ACH
