Why Bitcoin Will Continue To Grow In The Coming Year?

FYI @Gaurav116’s post was flagged as spam and I had to approve it. I think it’s because the domain has “sexchange” in it. Very unfortunate domain selection.
In @larry’s latest newsletter released today, Issue #16, he mentioned the latest news from Blockstack with the latest release of Blockstack’s Decentralized DNS focus and the Blockstack CLI. He also mentions the naming issues with bitcoin linking to this forum post. A while back I created a blog post going into detail about how much of an issue the actual name of bitcoin is. I forgot to post the link to the blog post here so I am doing it now. Hopefully this will spring forth more conversation around the bitcoin brand and name.
@larry really liking this description for the recent simplification of terminology/repositories:
Blockstore was actually a pretty good name, but it was hard to tell people about both blockstack (the community) and blockstore (some software). There’s a lot of cool new stuff in the Blockchain world and people have limited time to keep up with it. As a result, the community decided to use the same name for both project and community.
We also decided to describe what Blockstack does in term of the domain name system instead of the less understand “key-value store”. Everyone uses domain names and describing Blockstack as decentralized domain names gives the target audience - developers and people interested in Internet infrastructure - a much clearer view of its potential.
