I once saw the point of view of an economist who said that blockchain technology is good, but people who use blockchain to conduct illegal activities are not.Until now, there are still some economists who cannot agree with Bitcoin. They believe that virtual currency has no intrinsic value. They believe that Bitcoin cannot deduce its intrinsic value based on market value, but Bitcoin economics is fundamentally different from traditional economics. It does not need other conditions to support it. People need Bitcoin, rely on Bitcoin, and believe in Bitcoin. This is the source of its value.
Perhaps few people who oppose Bitcoin really understand Bitcoin and do not feel its beauty.
Yes, in many cases, the position of economists is consistent with the government's interests. Bitcoin is essentially a kind of weakening of government power. Naturally, many economists stand on the opposite side of Bitcoin. However, I believe that as the global consensus of Bitcoin becomes stronger and stronger, a group of new economists based on human digital civilization will gradually emerge, and they will support Bitcoin. It will help Bitcoin to enter the main stage of human civilization.
