    "Venezuelans love bitcoin. Well, of course they may do, because it's chaos in their country".
    The arrogance or ignorance to dismiss that happening in the US or UK is absolutely staggering.

    Why is there more than one year after this debate still no full version of this video to be found anywhere? Did the old Keynesian no-coiner get so destroyed that he insisted to keep the full debate private due to shame? Can't think of another reason.

      Danny Darko Peter Schiff has the strongest bitcoin criticism I’ve heard. He argues for return to the gold standard, rather than the same money-printing central planning of Keynesian theory that gave rise to our current global credit problems

    These poor old men are clueless. They do not understand the economics of bitcoin. It can be very deceiving when you first hear about it though. I had their attitude when I heard about it in 2014. fml

    • @jcantonelli1
      @jcantonelli1 5 лет назад +1

      You're right - and at great cost to me, I had the same attitude as well. My "big argument" against Bitcoin was that although the supply of BTC is capped at 21 million, the supply of cryptos themselves is potentially infinite. I've since heard this same argument many, many times from Peter Schiff, et. al. It sounds like a debate-ender of a statement - turns out it's anything but. It's like an elegant mathematical model that doesn't describe reality. Took me a little while (and a knowledgeable friend) to understand how 'network effects' refute that claim. People seem to think Satoshi whipped this thing up overnight in some sort of fit akin to teen angst. Bitcoin was carefully planned, and in development for a LONG time. It's highly unlikely to collapse completely now, even at ~80+% down from the previous ATH.

  • @richardschubert6623
    @richardschubert6623 6 лет назад

    Keynes actually strongly favored the Bancor as the politically neutral world reserve currency. Status quo resembles far from it. However Bitcoin comes closer to that than the US Dollar or any sovereign currency.
    So..
    Ammous is wrong about Vander Weyer for being a "Keynesian"...
