Both are fast-changing fields and demand the due diligence of your own research. The very existence and growth of BitCoin (and other digital "currencies" as we now know them) is utterly dependent on: (1) The availability of the Internet (as we now know it) everywhere, AND (2) Planet-busting trigawattts of reliable, 24/7 electrical current (mostly fossil-fueled), AND: (3) The Government(s) do not Track, Tax, or Punish use of BitCoin and other cryptos. PLUS: (4) World Peace for good measure. You MUST SEE this short (8 min) YouTube video on BitCoin: * https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-3-BKBDAF48 THEN DO watch these less-short (12-14 min) follow-ups: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=a-6g8_wggYo https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fyXY8FZjEwU *If annual BitCoin transactions ever approached current credit card transaction volume, then 13 times the annual world electrical consumption would be required to support them. In the event both (1) and (2) become impossible, you get a NOT(1234) World: Dark Ages 2.0. Which would you rather have then, 100 ounces of physical gold or 100 virtual BitCoins?
