 Hahahaha Jeff’s views on btc aren’t  solely based on fixed supply,  but network effect and usability. 

Jeff understands how the global money system works- which means understanding how it currently does *not* work. 

Can’t  proffer a solution unless you can explain the problem the solution solves. And trite libertarian memes don’t elucidate the complex issues plaguing the money system. 

If anything such oversimplified criticisms (Fiat is theft, etc) conceal the real issues which must be diagnosed, explained and understood if a solution is to be pitched , accepted and adopted.
