"There will be no currency without government control" He is unfortunately right on that point. We will have government regulations of bitcoin in the future.
Just wait a bit when bitcoin will be bigger and worth more, then government will strike.

Right or not, he is one guy who should know better, and so he is essentially saying "we have the power, and you can all go play with yourselves."

But it's true that, ultimately, the world will not be put right until at least the educated portion of the populace understand the disease of state money.

As for the short to medium term future of Bitcoin, he is just spin-doctoring for the elites. In the state-bank alliance, as in most others, it's the junior partner who plays the role of attack dog. What this shows is that the elites could actually be scared of the rapid rise of Bitcoin recently.
