Yeah, Mr. Rickards' arguments against Bitcoin were rather flimsy (and full of concrete inaccuracies, like the counterfeit bitcoins... where did he even get that from?).

*sigh*

Also, why was it so short? Is that just an excerpt, or is that the whole bitcoin debate?

i've been waiting for this.

wow, that's the absolute worst performance i have ever seen come from Jim Rickards.  talk about fear mongering. Roll Eyes

and then, he didn't even have his facts straight:

1.  oil never hit $400.  max was $149 in 2008.
2.  there has never been a billion counterfeit Bitcoins created.

my respect level for Rickards just went down at least 2 notches.

Rickards claims Satoshi doesn't understands economics.  i'd say Rickards doesn't understand game theory.  which is quite surprising to me.
