Interesting post in that this is the first time I've seen someone from the bitcoin speculator group challenge the thesis of those in the VC/startup group.

Both groups are clearly 'talking their book', but this reads like little more than cheerleading/threatening aimed at himself and fellow speculators. For example:

    If Cryptocurrency 2.0 ever replaces Bitcoin and all Bitcoins
    become worthless, confidence in the category of
    cryptocurrencies in general will be, I believe,
    irreparably damaged. If Cryptocurrency 2.0 just replaced
    Bitcoin, there's nothing stopping Cryptocurrency 3.0 from
    replacing Cryptocurrency 2.0 and sending the value of its
    tokens to zero. Ad infinitum.
