I see. I'm not sure if I agree with that assessment. However, IMO the real question isn't whether or not bitcoin can be a successful currency in a traditional sense. It interacts with currencies, but I think most important is the question of whether or not it is a valuable tool. I would have serious doubts that any country could use btc instead of an issued currency, but IMO that doesn't prevent btc from being useful, and thus valuable.
