I think most politicians have almost no understanding of economics; otherwise, they wouldn't have become politicians.

The most objective measurement we have is that the market actually valued the two split Ethereums more than it valued the one original Ethereum; the market viewed it as a good thing, and I don't see it as any sort of disaster whatsoever.

Setting regulatory certainty is very important for bitcoin. I'm opposed to the regulations, but the bitcoin businesses need to know the rules of the game in order to move ahead.

Silicon Valley is a great place for Bitcoin, since everyone understands computers, and there are lots of libertarians running around.

Money laundering is not a crime. It's just because certain men with guns don't like what other people are doing with their own money, so they decide it's okay to lock those people in a cage.

At first, almost everyone who got involved did so for philosophical reasons. We saw bitcoin as a great idea, as a way to separate money from the state.

If the world's using bitcoin, governments won't be able to fund wars through inflation like they do today.

Bernie Madoff... was regulated up and down and every which way, and it didn't do any good - he ran away with everyone's money.

PayPal came within an inch of being shut down by regulators when they started. The feds seizing the Dwolla account and stealing the money that is owned by Mt. Gox customers is more proof that Bitcoin is the superior payment system.

The U.S. is making it extremely difficult for me to stop being American.

We will never hear about people's Bitcoin accounts being frozen or seized by a government agency.

St. Kitts' government is much more libertarian compared with the U.S. It's not even close.
