People with money on the line actually know that people writing for these newspapers are clueless and not worth listening to. Unlike HN readers who keep posting and upvoting this stuff.

Somehow most people in the western world can't remember that all the biggest mass murders and other crimes against humanity were all done by the state. It's so important to keep fighting to limit the power of the government. If yo

I should have been more specific. A lot of them are morons, which is orthogonal and more of a problem than being self-serving. A competent self-serving manager is possibly not best for the company, but might be great to work with (under) an

Nothing. Some amount of money can go back and forth many times to facilitate trade volume much, much larger than the underlying stock. To make Bitcoin-based financial system liquid, they need some BTC stock to facilitate payments. If it goe
