We should really start discerning between deflation due to a collapse in aggregate demand and deflation due to an increase in aggregate supply. The former is bad, the latter is good.
In general I am of the same mind as the OP. We need to move away from the system of Big Debt.
Btw, it's pretty funny to see Bitcoin and other "deflationary" currencies being attacked while at the same time the current supposedly "inflationary" monetary system is suffering heavily from structural deflation, despite QE and ZIRP/NIRP. Looks like the collapse in aggregate demand due to Big Debt can't be solved through expansion of the money supply. The side effects (financial bubble) will only do more damage in the end.
