The speaker believes that by 2035, most goods and services around the world will be priced in Satoshis alongside traditional fiat currencies. This will create a dual price tag system, similar to duty-free shops at airports. While the transition may require faster adoption, the speaker sees it as part of a broader technological revolution spanning 80 years.
The Impact of ETFs on Bitcoin Adoption
The introduction of Bitcoin ETFs is seen as a major catalyst for increased Bitcoin adoption. These ETFs act as a top-of-funnel entry point for new investors, driving more capital into Bitcoin. The speaker suggests that for every dollar invested in the ETF, an additional five to ten dollars will flow into Bitcoin, leading to increased demand and further innovation in the space.
Bitcoin Solving Problems and Creating Opportunities
The speaker envisions Bitcoin as a force that reduces the severity and intractability of problems while creating new opportunities. Bitcoin's role as a store of value protects against financial abuse and tyranny, while its potential as a medium of exchange unlocks innovation and economic growth. The speaker believes that Bitcoin's gradual then sudden adoption and advancements in technology will lead to a better future with smaller problems and greater opportunities for humanity.
The Gradually then Suddenly Effect
The speaker discusses the concept of the gradually then suddenly effect, where Bitcoin's adoption and impact on society may unfold gradually before suddenly advancing to a new level. This effect is seen in various technological revolutions throughout history and may apply to Bitcoin's ability to reshape commerce, wealth distribution, and societal interactions. The speaker suggests that Bitcoin's ability to remove noise and improve efficiency will drive the adoption of better problems to solve and create new opportunities.
The Future Perspective of Bitcoin
The speaker expresses optimism about the future of Bitcoin and its potential to bring positive change to the world. By reducing problems and increasing opportunities, Bitcoin has the potential to encourage global coordination, foster peace, and transform economic systems. The speaker believes that Bitcoin's adoption will gradually address issues and lead to a better world, where problems are smaller, and progress and innovation flourish.
