神马?你以为自己要赚钱了?不不不,笔者认为在17年初之前,这项规律是符合的,因为毕竟知道比特币的人并不多,但是在暴涨的17年,热衷投资(投机)的买家都对比特币已经有了了解,Google
Trends预测的准确性应该会大幅下降。笔者试着看了下Google
Trends里的相关搜索发现,大部分人搜索比特币都是在询价而不再是问“What is bitcoin?”, "Where can we buy
bitcoin?"。
Is Ghana Showing the Most Interest in Bitcoin? (有兴趣的小伙伴可以看下这个报道)
BC:
So the combination of smartphones and Bitcoin technology enables the
people in Ghana to have access to the global economy, which is something
they can’t do with their local currency? TD: Exactly. One more thing
that gets people involved is that it makes transactions very fast. And,
in Ghana, bitcoin is valued higher than our local currency. So what
happens is that people store bitcoins for maybe two months, three months
on the exchanges. Then it appreciates and people change it to the local
currency. BC: So it’s not only used as a means of exchange but as a store of value to hedge against the volatility of the Ghanaian Cedi? TD:
Very good, and our company PMCedi exchanges bitcoins and other fiat
currencies. We also exchange other crypto currencies such as Perfect
Money and Litecoin.
