In a sense, it could be good for bitcoin long term for the speculative mania to die. Then it can possibly find some price stability to actually function as a currency. This is all standard speculative mania stuff right now though. The bubbl

I will freely admit that Wolfram's thoughts are over my head and there are very few thoughts that fall into this category. I imagine many are in the same boat, if they admit it or not. I also imagine that Wolfram isn't the best at
