 Then they aren't Bitcoin-only, tho.

Also have to be careful that Bitcoin businesses are not a diversification away from Bitcoin. 
 Here are economists (and financial analysts) I still find interesting because they add information:

Mark Friedrich
Peter Schiff
Lynn Alden
Dr. Daniel Stelter
Jeff Snyder
Deffner and Zschäpitz
Sarah Wagenknecht 
 never been able to understand what Snyder is talking about. Tried to follow a few times but never could grasp what he was really saying  
 He talks way too fast and gives little background info. 
 eurodollar babble, literally no idea how it tied to anything or what actionable info he was trying to convey. Opposite of Lyn Alden who is a plain spoken clear thinker. Anyone can understand her. 

 
 They're both very interesting. 
 They had a debate, once. Very good. 
 Peter Schiff? he keeps making bad predictions about bitcoin so what else is he getting wrong?
 
 Yeah, this is what I mean. I don't only care about Bitcoin. 
 Also, Bitcoiners also keep making bad predictions about Bitcoin, so that's not really a difference. 
 Schiff mostly offers earache. 
 Love him talking about manufacturing or logistics, or the Fed, and his allegories are amazing. 
 So you find wagenknecht interesting... Me too 
 She's amazing. Often wrong, but fascinating and brilliant. 
 I like the old classic view and the different to classic apprach of migration, if i understand correctly  
 She's half-Iranian, so I suspect she's just missing the German masochism, like with me.
