How can something as inimical to privacy as Bitcoin be resistent to control? Direct and technical, maybe not, but China for example seems to work around that.

- SilasX 9y agoRight, it's an open question how good it will actually be at achieving the goals people want, like privacy. I don't have a firm reason to believe China will be successful or not. My point was just that there are legitimate reasons to believe Bitcoin will be valuable for non-bubble reasons and will not substantively differ from legit currencies in supporting a valuation.
- QAPereo 9y agoOk, that’s certainly a reasonably cautious stance, although st this point I wonder if that can be Bitcoin.
