Jacobs whit: Part of it is like this desire or belief that it could provide a revolutionary break. Yet, why, given how obviously and crassly profiteering the reality of crypto currency is, why is it all wrapped up in such intensely utopian rhetoric? I am puzzled why people see big fortunes being made by some really ridiculous characters and sae that is somehow inspiring or oter liberating. But there are a lot of people who do believe in economic liberation or emancipation but they're just trying to ride the latest coin.
