Hi Qubex, I appreciate your thinking here. I’m fascinated by the topics of economics and currency controls here and would would love to discuss some of these issues with you (relevant to a current project). Can we email? My contact is in my bio.

I sent you an email as you requested. I wish to remark however that mine is a purely doctrinarian point of view, argued from first principles, and that bitcoin is by no means my field of expertise. I'm just looking at is as any neoliberal/monetarist financial economist (with a passion for market failures and the study of disequilibria) would. To coin an analogy (pardon the pun): I'm like a chemist telling people about how dangerous plutonium is, purely on the basis of its chemical reactivity and toxicity, blissfully ignorant of its transcendent physical reactivity and fissile potential. Within the window of that proviso, and assuming I have more to say on the topic (it might surprise you, but I'm not terribly interested in bitcoin, and don't bother to stay up to date on it beyond the occasional sensationalistic news that filters through Bloomberg and international media), I'm always eager to have a rational, measured conversation even between people that disagree. I'm not a bitcoin guru, I'm not an active equities, commodities, or derivatives analyst or investor, and I concern myself with the comparatively mundane task of running a family business that has blossomed into a multinational corporation. Despite what my written English may belay I'm not even an Anglo-Saxon, so I couldn’t declare myself to be entirely up-to-date on the nuances of political debates occurring in America in particular either, and I will of course exhibit an unknown Continental, centrist, statist bias.
