Villan or not? I don't know. Few months back, I've had brief passionate discussion with Mr. Subramanian about Bitcoin and bitcoin. He had amazing understanding of both like scholar. I've been contemplating on other side since that meeting.

He seems to have got his facts wrong in this interview. His understanding can be improved.  Smiley

If you're talking about my facts/understanding then frankly I'm struggling to improve when it comes to tech giant like bitcoin. And if you've questioning his understanding/facts then, you might be right Mr. Satoshi.

He was talking about me.

Sarcasm does not suit you, my friend. I will not join issue with you on this one. All you have to do is read the posts in this thread and you will have your answer.

Right now the Bitcoin is about anonymity. It uses a protocol called TOR (The Onion Router) that allows the giver and receiver to remain anonymous, which makes it dangerous. In my book, it's used by the criminal underworld.

And I guess this is the portion which will be picked up when politicians / decision makers start gathering information about bitcoin.  Tongue
Yup, it is dangerous when Half cooked nuts make comments like this, and then the mainstream media picks it up and runs with it.

'Best-selling author'. I hope he doesn't end up colouring opinions.  Angry

Everybody has right to color opinion like you and me. Wink
