It's unfortunate that Stiglitz made such a lazy proclamation. First of all, BTC can be used with sufficient anonymity as to frustrate any meaningful enforcement mechanisms. But if we stipulate the notion of a successful prohibition of BTC, what about all the other cryptocurrencies out there? Should we ban them, too? If so, it seems to me that we'd have to ban most of technologies that underpin the modern internet.
