 Japan Is Going Big On Bitcoin and Cryptocurrency.

I believe crypto currencies will offer a real alternative to (Some predict they will even replace) traditional banking.For example it will be welcome in less wealthy countries that do not have banking facilities,and will enable and inspire growth and development.

It will also be taken up in remote areas and towns of advanced countries where the banks have closed branches, leaving citizens and small businesses bankless. There may be access to online banks through the internet, but purchases that way involve three parties - The purchaser,the middle man (bank) and the supplier.

Cryptocurrency transactions are Peer to Peer. Purchaser and Supplier. No Bank.The Purchaser will fund their Crypto account i.e Prime the Pump, the transaction can take place,and is recorded in the Blockchain.

Can you see why there is so much excitement about this invention ? 'It's Time Has Come.' 'Need is the mother of Invention' and the banking and financial crisis of 2007 started clever minds thinking of a way to prevent irresponsible manipulating of the financial system happening again.It is no co-incidence that Bitcoin, the first and best known cryptocurrency made it's appearance in 2009.

 I subscribe to a Bitcoin news agency, and my inbox is bombarded at present with news alerts on the subject

This Japanese news item is typical of the frenzy -.
