RE: Ron Paul: Bitcoin vs. The Fed

in #crypto7 years ago

Nice sharing!!!!
I can't blame an old guy like Ron too much for taking awhile to come around, especially since he was primarily a) a politician and b) all but retired by the time cryptocurrencies had entered the public perception, but my opinion of people like Doug Casey and Peter Schiff has changed drastically after seeing their response to cryptos. Those guys sell themselves as economic and financial consultants, yet their hostility towards crypto strikes me as being more motivated by their own business interests than a true misunderstanding of the economic factors behind it. At least it sounds like Doug is coming around, Schiff is still out there spreading FUD and clinging to his "maybe it will work if it is backed by gold" mantra.
