Bitcoin Predicted to Dominate Future of Online Marketplaces

Bitcoin Predicted To Dominate The Future Of Online Marketplace

Bitcoin is becoming the world’s number one internet currency. This is according to Jack Dorsey, the owner of Square. He says that Bitcoin will emerge with time to become the Internet’s “native currency”, with the increasing popularity of the currency to overrun other internet currencies and become a preferred medium of exchange.

Bitcoin’s predicted future dominance

Jack Dorsey predicted the future dominance of Bitcoin back in March 2018 during an interview with Elizabeth Stark of Lightning Labs, where he expressed belief that when native internet currency emerged, Bitcoin would be at the fore..

Speaking during the Consensus 2018 Conference in New York, he said that the internet deserved a native digital currency that would become the mode of all payments for all transactions running across the web.

The digital marketplace

The concept of digital currency is entrenched in the world of online trade. In many instances, new digital currency such as Bitcoin has been the subject of discussion.

“Similarly, a day never lapses at Square without people discussing the idea of Bitcoin dominating the future of all internet transactions,” added Dorsey. Despite some people being skeptical about the digital currency, the open access policy will inspire its quest for dominance in all internet payments.

Payments solutions boosting the rise of Bitcoin

Additionally, the payment solutions developed for blockchain recognizes the significance of Bitcoin.

“At Square, any payment that comes across our table, the seller should be able to accept it,” remarked Dorsey. Square is in the payment industry and applauds Bitcoin’s role in ensuring swift and safe payments through the internet.

Square has a system that accepts Bitcoin payments. According to Mike Brock, an engineer at Square, the reason why they settled on Bitcoin is because of its simplicity.

Simple payments

Mike and Dorsey were eyeing simple internet payments that would work like any other common dollar payments. With Bitcoin, simple transactions like coffee purchases would not look any different as a transaction, so much so that cashiers might not even notice that the payment was in Bitcoin.

Square will build systems that will accommodate the payments for consumers and merchants. It wants to push for the acceptance and the dominance of Bitcoin payments by developing payment solutions. However, according to Dorsey, the goal for all these payment solutions must remain the same – just like walking into a coffee shop and making payments with Bitcoin.
