 Tesla sold 5M cars in its entire history. Toyota sells 5M cars every 6 months. 
Bitcoin processed 1T transactions in its entire history. Visa processes 1T transactions every day.  
 I remember when Nokia used to sell 450 million phones a year. 
 They were useful and affordable.  
 They were disrupted and shit. 
 And Visa and Toyota were not.  
 They are being disrupted. You will look back and realise they were out of date. 
 No evidence 
 It’s not evidence you need. It’s a future view.
Visa’s entire existence is about processing melting fiat government currencies that are heading to zero. Meanwhile Toyota is desperately trying to make profits faster than the government currencies it earns are being debased to zero. Both will have to adapt or die.
