Bitcoin has many uses, but for the sake of argument let's take its often stated use of acting as digital gold. If gold is "intrinsically valuable" which I presume you think it is, then so is bitcoin. Gold is valuable because it is a good store of value due to its properties of being scarce, long-lasting, easily divisible, transportable, etc. Bitcoin is all these things too and in fact is a much better store of value than gold. I see no reason, other than "brand", why gold should be "intrinsically valuable" but bitcoin not. Btw, gold is a 3-6trillion dollar market depending on how you do the accounting (https://schiffgold.com/commentaries/just-how-big-is-the-gold...).
Is there any example from history you think could be used as an analogy or do you think there's no way of comparing this to anything that's happened before? If so, how do you think about cryptocurrency valuation?

Here's his up-work profile: https://www.upwork.com/freelancers/~01d666ef2195a368dd
Any thoughts on this?
Appreciate the response. Here are some answers:
1. Our scope is currently only the UK, although we are looking at other brands.
2. Meaningful scale for us would be between £100-500k revenue in first year and growing that 40-60% every year.
3. I don't know the answer to this.
4. Close competitors are companies like: https://charlottethomas.co.uk/, https://www.frette.com/.
I've put my e-mail in my profile. Thanks very much in advance for your time and for the consultation!
Agreed. I think this combined with Snapchat advertising could be the first steps in the direction of changing advertising from the intrusive and unwanted interruption of your daily life to something people actually browse through in order to discover interesting stories and experiences.
However, I also think as social media has proliferated, the definition of the word "brand" has expanded as now more than ever, people are seen as "brands" - often with hundreds of thousands of followers (more than many actual brands and even media companies). As everyone becomes a brand, I believe increasingly the line between marketing and storytelling will be blurred and marketing will become deeply embedded into our culture. Product placement in movies, celebrity endorsement, "native" posts: all these are the first indicators of a culture in which everything is meant to sell something. Whether this is a good thing or not is up for discussion.
Currently doing some research on the industry and curious if you could link to some of the "dead bodies"? Also curious if you know how Verseon's model (https://www.verseon.com/) stacks up versus some of the others mentioned? Obviously it might be hard to say since all their drugs are currently in the pre-clinical trial phase but would appreciate any info you might have.
Thanks in advance
