> Don't you care to know where your food, your electronics or your clothes are coming from, who made them and how? This is a pretty strange choice of examples, considering how little most people know about the manufacturing of any of those things. Besides, if bitcoin were to ever reach the masses, we'd start banking in it (because banks and useful and necessary), so M0-M3 doesn't go away. As soon as someone is holding fractional reserves, "how many bitcoins exist" is as relevant as "how many paper dollar bills exist".
