I have said, straight from trump, that Bitcoin would (once it "got famous") be seen . . . justifiably, I think
as a threat to central banks' "authority" and be outlawed; I have persisted in this analysis and much as I have tangled with people -- who have seen their investments sky rocket when I said "don't go there" (so, short-term they seem "right" and I seem "wrong"), I still expect bitcoin ultimately to be regulated out of existence and the value drop to basically zero
. . . Nobel economics laureate Joseph Stiglitz has made news, I see, by saying sort of the same thing
