It's interesting to watch how the govern-cements and old way companies...

completely miss the point about block-chain.
The things they think aren't important, are in fact the most important.
The aspects of the control they absolutely want to maintain are those that they absolutely need to give up.

These companies are doomed, because they cannot see.
They will say, we made something exactly like bitcoin, why doesn't anyone want to use it?
The difference to us will be even more apparent than fake gold vs real gold, and more meaningful.
My bet is that they won't even gold plate it.  They will truly try to offer us lead while we have gold.
