 Never said you should trust me,  just saying I’m not surprised you cited a controversial fringe economist with little empirical data to support his theories 😉 
 Likewise, I am not surprised you cited a degree. Have a good one, man!  
 🤝 

Btw I’m not dismissing your argument at all. After all, I, too am a bitcoiner, so at the very least I take interest in commodity-backed currency. It’s just hard for me to accept Austrian economics and anarcho-capitalism at face value without a healthy dose of skepticism, since we haven’t really seen those things work in modern history. Still, I’ll read the paper you shared 
 Hey! Thanks for being open-minded and willing to read the paper. It’s cool to hear different perspectives, and I totally get where you’re coming from! Let's keep the convo going! 😊
