Quantum computing, lightning and the future of Bitcoin – Masie unpacks it all in BNIC#2 Q&A

At the second BizNews Investment Conference in Hermanus, tech maverick and Africa Bitcoin Corporation Executive Chairman Stafford Masie made a powerful case for Bitcoin as the world’s most undervalued and misunderstood asset. Drawing on lessons from his pioneering work with the internet, open-source software and Google’s entry into Africa, Masie explained why he sold nine properties and even his Range Rover to buy Bitcoin. He urged South Africans to “study Bitcoin” and not confuse it with crypto, outlined how Lightning Network and Bitcoin treasuries are reshaping finance, and dismissed quantum computing fears as hype compared to real risks like losing your keys.
