Another scare tactic to keep the general public from using bitcoin.. truth is, more crime has been done with the American dollar then all other currency's combined
It's awesome. I love these kinds of articles.
The kinds of people who read The Atlantic will buy fewer Bitcoins. This is great news for me because, in general, I prefer that those people have as little economic power in the future as possible.
On the other hands, a bunch of kids who didn't already know just learned that Bitcoins are immediately useful to them.
Bitcoin is winning the hearts and minds of the next generation, while undermining the older generations who've spent their whole lives running up debts and starting wars all over the world.
