“Paul Krugman has written about Bitcoins, and he has come to the conclusion that they represent a grim development. Fortunately, no one is asking for Krugman’s permission to mine, hold, or use Bitcoin. He is not in charge of designing this emerging alternative money. As for making society rich, a main reason why Bitcoin is taking off is because people want to flee government paper money or at least have some hedge against government money and all that it brings with it. Bitcoin might someday save the economy from being destroyed by government and its economic advisers.”
