Citat:
Speaking at the Thiel Foundation Under 20 Summit, last weekend, Thiel said he gave a talk back in 1999 that mentioned the end of monetary sovereignty and how encrypted money was going to “change the world”.
“I do think bitcoin is the first one of these that has the potential to do something like that,” he added.
The investor addressed the anti-bitcoin arguments that digital currency is “fake”, a temporary “bubble” and “doesn’t represent anything real” by stating that a lot of these arguments actually apply to the US dollar too.
“It is worth thinking about money as the bubble that never ends. There is this sort of potential that bitcoin could become this new phenomenon,” he continued.
Dags för matematik.
Om "förändra världen" innebär en market cap för bitcoins på ca 500 miljarder USD. Då kommer en bitcoin vara värd:
500 miljarder/21 miljoner = 23809 USD
Bitcoins väntevärde i dagsläget blir då:
23809*0,2 = 4761 USD
Jag antar att Peter Thiel själv äger en del bitcoins.
