Peter Schiff vs Saifedean Ammous. Fight!

in #bitcoin5 years ago (edited)

This is actually a pretty great discussion despite being less of a "debate" so much as two people trying to spike on the others face lol.

Some pretty entertaining moments Saifedean dunking.

But if you're looking for a take away: Peter Schiff is a smart cookie, an asshole you'll realize after listening to his podcast for any amount of time, but not an idiot in the economic arena broadly speaking, bit of a doomsdayer on the scale to euphoric moron. Take every critique of the bitcoin argument, hack away at the negatives as hard as you can, and still come away believing it's one of the best solutions to the global debt issue going forward is what this felt like to me, and who better to listen to than the Bitcoin Standard author doing the takedown. And if not, it's probably something like going back to the gold standard and few people are more bullish on gold than Peter interrupting everyone lol

Tone is a bad moderator hahah but economists kind of literally talking their book are hard to control ;)
