So let's say that the current establishment (banks and governments) accepts the cryptocurrencies (I'm allowed to dream) and suddenly all our money is under our control.
I mean, I'd love to see that, but I see a major problem in all that and I can't think of any solution.
I'm talking about blue-collar crimes.
This was the first reported case in the UK, but this is old news in many countries. I always knew about this problem but now that it started happening even in rich countries, I'm terrified of what will be of third world countries.
I currently live in Brazil, and I'm afraid to even whisper the bitcoin word. Every time I talked to friends (always in person, never online) about it, I could notice stranger eyes immediately turning to us, prying on our conversation as if we were millionaire aliens. My maid (yes it's a common thing here and they are poor, very poor) once heard me talking about it (no numbers, just the name) and I could see she was breathless, had dilated pupils and increased heart rate. I'm not kidding!
But back on the subject. Nowadays the majority of our money is in the banks, which have daily withdraw policies to prevent this kind of robbery. If there's a daily limit, nobody can steal everything you have from your internet banking app. But with crypto currencies there are only a few options to keep your money:
Are you following? Can you see how impossible it looks like for cryptocurrencies to become what it's meant to? Or am I missing something here? Because I gotta say, this is the biggest FUD about cryptocurrencies for me.
Please, let me hear what you have to say about it. Do you think there will be crypto banks? Hot wallets with daily limits? Keep in mind that we need something that any grandpa(ma) with basic tech skills can use.
Cheers!
