Yeah the 2015 will be the year when those $500MM of venture capital invested into Bitcoin would come to fruition with mainstream-friendly secure wallets, killer social apps (like Bitcoin Tipping Economy, BitExperts.com, etc)<p>Here is today&#x27;s news where XAPO&#x27;s CEO estimates that about 12 million people use Bitcoin today <a href="https:&#x2F;&#x2F;twitter.com&#x2F;allexkonov&#x2F;status&#x2F;590257211789611009&#x2F;photo&#x2F;1" rel="nofollow">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;twitter.com&#x2F;allexkonov&#x2F;status&#x2F;590257211789611009&#x2F;pho...</a><p>Another data point - at the beginning of 2013, Blockchain.info only had 70,000 wallets, after 9 months they had reached 1,000,000 wallets<p>It all looks like 2015 will be the year of Bitcoin again, like it was in 2013
