I need to have others who are informed to help a plebeian newbie comprehend the arguments for and against Bitcoin.
Specifically, I hear Dave @ X22 advocate for it (and make seemingly-excellent arguments in favor), and GhostEzra strongly insinuate against...
(And yes, I’m doing more research, of course. And yes, it’s my job to come to my own conclusions...)
Just thought I’d throw that out there, so I can accelerate the learning curve?
Gracias.
And Bitcoin Ben is a hard-selling pump-n-dumper. He was everywhere spamming 300k BtC last week when it was spiking into the upper 50s, and is now nowhere to be seen as it falls away. Recommends shady Australian-based exchange that wants photos of your passport, etc. Ask a question not entirely slavish in a chat-stream, and he'll call you a "pussy" for not diving in.
He's a carnival barker.
