While that's true, isn't the exact same true of any currency (including BTC)? In principle, a bank could loan BTC with a fractional reserve and produce the same outcome, could it not?

Just had to add (since I'm a giant Barbershop Geek in addition to all of the other ways I'm a geek ;))... Lest anyone think that barbershop is just for old folks: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XWmFfFx24zs (Vocal

Another important aspect of properties in C# is that they are a target for metadata (i.e. Attributes). This is something that's frustratingly broken with the method getter/setter approach. And while you can fix it by convention
