That was a quote from the SatoshiPay CEO when he announced today that they would no longer be using the Bitcoin blockchain for Micropayments.
Specifically, the quote from CEO Meinhard Benn reads as follows:
"We love Bitcoin for its pioneering role in the creation of our industry, but some blockchain networks it inspired have evolved faster than bitcoin itself, so we decided to move on to superior technology."
Undoubtedly, not something the Bitcoin maximalists wanted to hear...
What is this superior technology you might ask?
Well, SatoshiPay announced today that they have partnered with the IOTA Foundation.
The IOTA Foundation is a not for profit that oversees network development. It will help explore replacing Bitcoin with the IOTA chain as it's primary settlement network.
The IOTA website can be seen here:
In the past, SatoshiPay had been relying on the Bitcoin network to settle payments since SatoshiPay's inception in 2015.
At that time the average transaction fee was around $.02. Now, the average transaction fee on Bitcoin is around $2.41.
Why IOTA?
To piggy back off of what was just mentioned above, it's transaction fees.
IOTA has zero fee transactions and has no limit on the number of transactions per second of its processing.
Fee free and the unlimited number of transactions make it an ideal fit for any company, especially SatoshiPay.
Not surprisingly, this is not the only startup to leave Bitcoin for another blockchain in the recent past...
"Yours" announced back in May that they would be switching to Litecoin from bitcoin also stating similar reasoning.
What this all means?
The clock is ticking for Bitcoin.
All of this further underscores why August 1st is such a huge deal for Bitcoin. If Bitcoin continues on as is, many blockchains will replace it.
It was the first but the technology is dated compared to what is out there currently, therefore Bitcoin must either adapt or be left behind.
Get out the popcorn, August 1st is rapidly approaching...
Stay informed my friends!

Think it's a bit early to be calling the end for bitcoin. These other blockchains promise great things but none of their networks have been put under the level of stress bitcoin has. Ethereum claimed it could handle it but when the ICO's came heavy, it's network had issues.

So true. At this point the only thing truly threatening to the technological foundation of Bitcoin is quantum computing, and that MAY be years away. Ask most vets what they'd feel most comfortable holding onto over the next few years, and most will say Bitcoin is their #1 choice.

Seem to me as long as people believe in bitcoin, it will hold value.
And as far as I've understood only Litecoin has similiar features as far as bitcoin in that it's decentralized and cannot be centralized.
Unless as I've said all along, someone comes up with a coin actually backed up by something, aren't we all still talking about money made out of this air?

As i am browsing for some pic's for a story I am working on. I enter the search "political riots" It is at this point that i start to stair at the screen. the images on the screen scared the shit out of me. I realized that there is something really wrong with this world. I tried to calculate the amount of money that is spent on military around the world. I did not get to the result. However I did think if the UN nations are spending on avg 2% of there GDP on military. that it sure is more money than what is needed to feed the world and more. Now to get to money the political people create unrest. violence, confusion ext. Then they create a common enemy. Then you have all the fuel to sell arms to the rebellion. when the rebellion gets to strong the local army need better arms and the sale is made. Then after the country is completely fucked they come back to buy the assets at rock bottom price. They convince countries to donate to some relieve fund and they start to rebuild the place. Now remember this is more than likely your tax money being spent. If this was done for natural disasters I am sure you will be fine with the idea. However please do the google search "political riots".
That all said. The political players in all major crypto's are surely hustling for position. A time for perfect alignment.
People are concerned about bitcoin future. From a political point of view. The world is starting to realize that the old government systems do not work. Blockchain has big impact on the minds of forward thinking communities. We know we can now have a trusted none corruptible truth. This can be used for any type class industry. The fact that blockchain tech is growing at the pace it has in the past year. All this point to the need for the crypto community to protect bitcoin. The truth is we do not need bitcoin to be a micro payment system with super fast confirmation. All we need is for bitcoin to maintain.
Bitcoin is more than a decentralized crypto currency. It is a movement. It is the way of the future. People in the world are waking up at an alarming rate. The red pill is being swallowed. Governments cannot be trusted. Blockchain can be trusted.
Bitcoin is the crypto that need to survive for the complete crypto industry to succeed.
Bitcoin need to develop a political image. Bitcoin need to be seen as the mother-ship of crypto's. There will be constant buy in to the bitcoin market by bigger players. Many millionaires around the world will buy bitcoin. This will send the value of bitcoin up consistently for the next few years. From a supply and demand view there is just not that many bitcoin to come. Then there are the other markets that will fuel the value. It is just not thinkable that the bitcoin industry will harm bitcoin. Bitcoin is the dollar of the crypto-world.

How can bitcoin ever evolve enough to deal with Zero fees and infinite transactions per second. It seems it is evolving into a digital version of gold where there will be few transactions. A trusted hedge but not one that is very useful for paying for groceries. Bitcoin remains the exit and entry point between the alt world and fiat currencies. Perhaps that is needed, but even that is frustrating when the market moves as much as it does at the moment. It is frustratingly slow.

Andreas Antonopolus has stated in his presentations about Bitcoin, that it was in fact looking to establish itself as a global reserve currency. That seems to have happened already on some level, at least in the world of cryptocurrency. As you have pointed out, if you are looking to buy altcoins, you must first purchase Bitcoin to trade for them.
I believe that buying groceries, cups of coffee etc. will be the function of altcoins. It won't happen overnight, but the altcoin community that works to demystify cryptos and to simplify their use for the larger population will be the coin(s) that will be adopted for everyday trade.

Really, you are just going to spew out things like zero fees and infinite transactions with a straight face? You are acting like there aren't consequences and trade-offs to having those things. I haven't yet researched IOTA, but I know intuitively that there is ALWAYS a trade-off.
Downvoting a post can decrease pending rewards and make it less visible. Common reasons:
Submit
I haven't seen a full comparison of all the coins, but I haven't heard of any altcoin advertising slower or more expensive than Bitcoin. Whether its IOTA or one of the other better known alts you don't have to look too hard to find cheaper and faster. Bitcoin like the apple iPhone was revolutionary but competitors gained ground and when they are better/faster/cheaper then market leadership changes at least for the transaction space. Bitcoin has far more trust than anything else and perhaps that is enough to hang onto the reserve title. As you say there are always trade offs. Bitcoin is trusted because of its established architecture and the use of resource intensive mining but that comes at a cost that can be optimized but not removed. Tinkering with the code to make incremental improvements may undermine the one true advantage Bitcoin has ie trust but is unlikely to beat the rising competitors on speed or cost. I like and own precious metals. Gold and silver coins are more practical than bars but I still dont use them for buying stuff.

Sorry transactions. For instance Steem is very attractive right now, but to buy it using Fiat currency you still have to go through someone like Coinbase and Bitcoin.

I tend to agree with you as regards to bitcoin becoming a store of value mostly because of its use as a means of exchange between different currencies. The tech and ideological foundations of it will be emulated and adapted in almost any industry you can think of without requiring any kind of token or currency behind it.

When you say reliable are you referring to the tech behind it (the blockchain) and a somewhat general consensus on the way to go from here or the fact it will have only a predefined limit of supply? So far its reliability is based on the tech and the support of the mostly tech savvy community who see its potential implications and disruptive capabilities. Do you think its price volatility is what is stopping it going more mainstream as well as the currently limited real world uses as far as using it for everyday purchases when things such as tap-and-go are already well established ?

I meant reliable in the fact that it has been up and running uniterupted 24/7 for over 8 years.
Mainstream adoption will take time. The price volatility works both for and against it. I think we will see more and more "real" use cases (there are enough already, trading it alone is a use case) in the near future.

Its certainly interesting times. I think bitcoin will evolve and still has first mover advantage. Sure, other apps can utilise blockchain or can use other networks in the background but at present to buy any crypto, you have to go through bitcoin (almost) and if you ask anyone outside of the crypto world, they will have only heard of bitcoin (and perhaps ethereum).

As already pointed out by @altman @toon and @independencenow and @conspiracyguy among others, Bitcoin's limited supply in the end may become what was needed and had been abandoned by almost all fiat currency systems. A stored/reserve standard that could be certainly quantified but not so easily manipulated by todays reserve systems, one that could not be easily inflated. In that sense it has already accomplished that. All other alt coins will simply be a promissory crypto note backed up by an actual precious and limited resource Bitcoin. The ones that can most readily adapt to this system will survive or the ones most readily accepted at any exchange for bitcoin will remain, holding bitcoin will become like holding actual crypto gold.

Thanks for the article - lots of food for thought. The clock might be ticking for Bitcoin hence the importance of the upcoming events. 1 August is almost here. The facts speak for themselves - until now Bitcoin is holding its own and still has the largest market cap - hence lots of trust still in the coin despite its shortcomings. Time will tell if the sentiments will change dramatically or only slightly. I am no expert but I think that Bitcoin will continue to hold its glorious position being the pioneer but will continue to have it usefulness even if other coins will outperform it in the future.
