Vic Sharma argues that Bitcoin will become the dominant money in a world of central bankers aggressively devaluing their currencies.
Mezinskis analyzes Bitcoin as a global benchmark currency. Since Bitcoin Pizza Day (May 22, 2010), Bitcoin is up 15.5 million times; its power curve is up 34 million times. He finds Bitcoin weakest against the Swiss Franc, strongest against the Argentine peso.
New Hampshire's Executive Council rejected a $100 million Bitcoin-backed municipal bond in a 3-2 vote, with Democrat Karen Leit Hill citing volatility concerns over the 'emerging asset class.'
