Prema autoru, Til je tokom devedesetih imao ambicija da stvori decentralizovani finansijski sistem nalik kriptovalutama, ali je zbog stanja na tržištu i navika korisnika PayPal-a otišao u sasvim drugom pravcu. Iako je naslov pomalo preteran, jer se autor u tekstu najviše bavi izazovima razvijanja PayPala, informacije i citati koji se iznose ukazuju na Tila kao vizionara koji je na kraju barem posredno (investiranjem u tvorca Ethereum blokčejna) uspeo da ostavi svoj trag i na svet kriptovaluta.

Iz članka:

In 1999, Thiel prophetically stated that the future of currency will,

Be something where you have a choice between different currencies, and the choice is not left to the sovereign but to the individual, and in a sense, the individual becomes sovereign and is able to make choices regarding which currency they want to take. – Peter Thiel

One of Thiel’s favorite books is a 918-page sci-fi novel by Neal Stephenson titled Cryptonomicon. The main character of the book is a software engineer and cryptography enthusiast named Randy Waterhouse. While exploring a jungle in the Philippines, Waterhouse and his team discover a gold stash hidden there during World War 2. Waterhouse then creates a new decentralized digital currency backed by this gold stash. This idea is nothing new; after all, the U.S. dollar had been on the gold standard for decades before abandoning the system in 1971. But the decentralization aspect was new and would become remarkably important later on.

After reading Cryptonomicon, Thiel became fascinated with how digital currencies could be applied in real life. Thiel had the idea for a currency that people worldwide could store on their mobile phones, protected by a passcode. This would allow people in developing countries to avoid holding their savings in an unstable local currency.

DISKUSIJA

Za mnoge, Bitkoin se pojavio niotkuda, a zapravo se teren pripremao decenijama i u tome su učestvovali mnogi genijalni ljudi. Verovatno se pojavio tada kada se pojavio jer su se tada poklopili neki eksterni uslovi koji su morali da se poklope, a i tada je konačno zaokružen dizajn koji je rešio nedostatke svih preteča Bitkoina.
