Given their history, I see Block / Cashapp sticking around for a long time. Any company that’s offering custodial lightning solutions that want to do right by their users and not rug pull will stick around.
It’s hard regarding hardware wallet companies because so much will change technically, as well as our requirements for storing our seed, but I do see coinkite sticking around.
Good observation, there will be nuance between different niches. Hardware wallets feel pretty pvp right now but im wondering if/when the apple/android of the industry appear and take hold of most the market
Or if the market will naturally develop like bitcoin. Distributed, many companies, many offerings. I hope for this option

I think it’s your 2nd option. No doubt apple and google will eventually get in the game. But I try to look at everything through a global lens and the billions of people outside of the 330 million or so in the US tells me that there will be many companies, many offerings, fighting for our business and if they play fiat games, they’ll just go away. It’ll be very competitive so I feel like the need to do right by their customers in order to make more bitcoin will have a positive effect.
