This is the thing that I think we're all learning from the Chinese: that this merging of messaging, media, and payments together really makes sense to people.

Everyone, it's okay to say the word 'bitcoin' and acknowledge that it is the actual platform that is driving this innovation that we're all building on. It's also okay to say 'the bitcoin blockchain,' or 'the blockchain,' if you're afraid that people will think you're weird.

There's all these proofs that go on of identity, of records, and they're quite non-digital. The blockchain innovation really allows us to take everything where there's record keeping, everything where there's trust around record keeping, and it allows us to make that digital, immutable, permanent, and global.

The Internet requires evolved forms of governance that we haven't figured out as a planet. I'd love to help make that easier and make that possible.
