As if academics could have invented Bitcoin.  Roll Eyes

Logic stands on its own. Authority has to rest on valid logic. Refute my logic. Afaics, my logic is consistent with Adam Smith to the extent that his body of work is applicable.
Bitcoin was obviously created by academics, and is a perfect example of a publically peer reviewed proposal with a proper whitepaper and proper citations, based on other already accepted and understood cryptographically related papers (which themselves do the same).

This is also how logic and reason work.  They are not based on subjective foundation but premises that are founded on insight and discovery from thousands of years of evolution of philosophy.

If you don't ground your arguments in accepted principles and theories, no one will or should pay any attention to them.

And no you are not in line with Smith and you have not cited anything by him and I have.  And I would wager you have not read any of his works but POSSIBLY a few paragraphs.  I have already shown Nash, Szabo, Finney, Hayek directly disagree with your assertions.
