http://bitcoinist.net/interview-economics-professor-bitcoin-problems/Sergio: Can you elaborate a bit about the last paragraph? Where does Bitcoin have a problem or where do you see the problems?
Chris: For me the first issue is that Bitcoin has a very big image problem. Bitcoin has been and is currently being rocked left and right by scammers and frauds. The first big fraud/hacking scam was Mt. Gox, that drew the attention of the general media. This generated a huge negative image with a lot of people and scared a lot of investors away from Bitcoin. After that the image of Bitcoin got repaired a bit but then Josh Garza and his scamming practices came along.
And guess who is commenting on this article ... the muggle of all the muggles Vik.
