New Years Day 2000 & Something

What do think will be the biggest coins news event, good or bad or down right ugly in the years ahead? C'mon now don't just predict the present and call it the future. Step out on the limb. No one is going to remember this stuff anyway. Hey the publications do this every year. Why should they all the fun?

My prediction is that one of the big shots will notice that the stock market doesn't do much more anymore than 4 downs and punt. They will see an opportunity in selling bored investors from was-street slabs. But they also have to make it as easy as it was with stocks. So just sell them an electronic transaction saying they now own 100 slabbed ABC coins in MS65. There will be some kind of central storage area for where the physical slabs are stored just as there are areas where corn and wheat, that no one ever takes possession of, are stored. The problem of doggies going into the sight unseen market won't exist since no one will actually be seeing them. And if they make a go of 100 point grading everything will be a doggie anyway.

But still, there will be those pesty purists who will say "buy the slab and not the electrons."
