He said it unreliable for financial transactions as demo'd by the fork. I said I agree but it is worth something even today as evident by the money people store in bitcoin already.
Lots of people do lots of stupid things with money. The current $3B market cap of Bitcoin is a tiny fraction of the $64B that Madoff Investment Securities made off with (and cryptocurrency market cap is an extremely generous measure to use to compare to that value). And that's hardly a reason to claim that making Bernie Madoff trustworthy is difficult but not impossible.
Only because you are lucky enough to see this so early. And I don't care if bitcoin dies but what I meant there was the market cap of cryptocurrencies; that will rise beyond many Madoffs because even the Madoffs would use it.
