"The Economist" guy was stumbling a lot and I didn't quite get what he was trying to do there. In the end I didn't even understand what he wanted to say (half of his answers). While bitcoin guy was sure calm and sounded very reasonable. Cheesy

I agree, the Economist guy did not come off looking good as he stumbled through his less than convincing talking points. Trace Mayer was great even though he was cut out of the second half of the segment. I look forward to seeing more from people like him and Cody Wilson. One of the best things about BTC taking off is now there's a whole new class of wealthy young intelligence anti-establishment types like them. People who hopefully will be well-positioned to help lead the resistance to dystopian government.

That guy was all over the place. It was a shame that they didn't give more airtime to the blogger as he was very articulate and made a good case in very little time. Interestingly though Jeremy Paxman seemed intrigued which means it's likely he'll run the story again another time, probably when another EU country has a bank run.

This is excellent news for Bitcoin -- sensible mainstream show, and balanced coverage.
