yes yes. many of us think btc is a scam, others think its revolutionary. taleb is smart.
more importantly, what in the _fuck_ is this article from Bloomberg?
1) it is literally more ad than article
2) most of the article is a grammatical rephrasing of the tweet with no attempt to value add.
3) the only non-tweet, non-ad sentence is a vague reference to an unrelated opinion taleb had about btc
4) the citation for 3? another tweet
i dont know how to finish this comment. what a sign of the times. journalism bankruptcy.

- ashwagary 5y ago>Taleb is smart Even though he is smart at risk management, can he be an IYI (intelligent yet idiot) when discussing another topic? I personally think everyone is an IYI in some sphere.
