As we learn more about cryptocurrencies, more evolved altcoins will emerge, with much more sophisticated economics.

As it is, none of the developers of cryptocurrencies really understand economics and the majority of them believe in heterodox economic ideas that are probably wrong.

But currently people are just trying to get rich. At this point in time I'm more bullish about GNU Taler. It is not a cryptocurrency but it shares some of the objectives.




Hey Lumberjack - I’m curious to learn more about the economics most folks in the space are ignoring.

Are there any particular economic theories or resources you would recommend as a starting point for someone interested in studying up?

Email in bio if you feel so inclined. Appreciate it!
