What's the value proposition of money?

Sending money to people.

Bitcoin is silly in lots of ways, but what something like it could potentially do is revolutionary. PayPal is worth billions; retail banking is a 12-figure yearly revenue industry. That's a whole lot of money on the table.

Of course, the rub is Bitcoin is _already_ worth billions... Paypal is kind of a "small fish" by bitcoin standards (not that it isn't welcomed news)
