We don't know how Bitcoin will react to a global bust - and as the article states, it's going to break - we just don't know when.

But the author fundamentally does not understand the energy component of Bitcoin.

Be sure to read "Broken Money" too - it's a great 20 book history lesson on money condensed in one 500 page book.

I read Saif’s Bitcoin Standard, Broken Money, and many others.

“It’s gold’s tie to the physical world added to its innate liquidity profile that keeps it’s value so stable and makes it such good money. There is no equivalent with Bitcoin…. … Bitcoin has no anchor in the physical world.”

He lays out many solid points on the strength of Bitcoin but clearly falls short.

Bitcoin is anchored by the laws of gravity, proof of work energy— arguably better and clearly more measurable than Gold.

There is no Bitcoin without a proven physical expenditure and conversion of energy.

Endlessly competitively physical!
