Twitter CEO Says Bitcoin Will Be the World's 'Single Currency' In 10 Years (theverge.com)

In a recent interview with The Times, Twitter and Square CEO Jack Dorsey said he believes that bitcoin will become the world's single currency within 10 years. "The world ultimately will have a single currency, the internet will have a single currency," said Dorsey. "I personally believe that it will be bitcoin." Dorsey went on to say that the transition would happen "probably over ten years, but it could go faster." The Verge reports: That Dorsey is a fan of bitcoin isn't too surprising, though. In addition to serving as the CEO of Twitter, Dorsey is also the CEO of Square, which recently added the option to buy and sell Bitcoin directly from the Square Cash app. The company also released an illustrated children's story touting the benefits of the digital currency. As for Dorsey himself, he's gone on the record in an interview with The Verge's own Lauren Goode about the benefits of bitcoin as a currency, describing it as the "next big unlock" for the world of finance. (Dorsey owns an unspecified amount of the cryptocurrency.)

WTF has Trump got to do with this? There might be Russian trolls out there influencing opinion etc. etc. but all you have to do is look at any mainstream media hype about Trump to see that the US of A was leading the curve on mass indoctrination ages ago, albeit through TV and newspapers etc. Although I am pretty sure the US has their own army of trolls by now.

A prime example is all the hype about the Nerve gas attack in the UK. Fuck all evidence other than "someone" saying it was a Russian nerve agent that is 10x more powerful than any other nerve agent (how do they know that?) yet somehow the people attacked are still alive?

America and it's largest air craft carrier (the UK) are hell bent on starting another war (or cold war) and everyone is just lapping up the crap spewed out by mainstream media without stopping to think for themselves.
WHY would Russia want to kill a *British* spy they traded for some of their sleeper agents 6 fucking years ago?
WHY use a supposed Russian nerve agent to do it, when a "mugging" gone wrong in the same park would have worked better?
WHY won't the Brits give a sample of the nerve agent to the Russians. Is it maybe because they cooked up the batch themselves and it would be obvious if inspected (especially since it turned out to be 1000x less lethal than a cup of water held over your nose and mouth)?
WHY would Assad in Syria use chemical weapons in a war he is winning, when using said weapons would cause international outrage. Also, where the fuck did he get the chemical weapons when he willingly allowed his stockpiles to be destroyed?
WHY is America arming "moderate rebels" in the first place, especially since the line between moderate rebels and ISIS (or whatever they are fucking called today) is so blurred that the weapons end up in ISIS possession?
WHY does Russia have sanctions for annexing Crimea AFTER they were ASKED to by the people in Crimea, when the US has invaded country after country without UN permission and fuck all is done about it? In fact the invasion of Iraq was done without senate permission, so it was done without US permission either, but no sanctions for the US? On that note, at least Russia was invited into Syria, the US being there is illegal, where are the sanctions?

Just reread some of my above list, seems like I am bashing the states and defending the Russians, perhaps I am. But that is not the point of this long ass diatribe.
My main concern is the fact that to find ANY dissenting opinion from the crap main stream media is pushing out you have to dig into dark dingy sites that have Elvis and UFO sightings as part of their forums.

WHY is mainstream media NOT asking these questions?

WHY ARE YOU NOT ASKING FOR ANSWERS?

I mean these are pretty straight forward questions, but I bet I will be modded into oblivion about three seconds after I post this, and that just proves America has it's own army of trolls throwing crap into the internet. Stop drinking the coolaid and wake the fuck up.
