So how do you call being able to formalise a contract without trust or third parties involved? A public ledger that anyone can use to vote where no one can lie or cheat the system?

He is only seeing the fabricated ponzi scheme side of bitcoin and the made up regligiosity of bitcoin... Pumpkinhead is NOT intending on engaging in a meaningful dialogue about various beneficial aspects of bitcoin, he just wants to attempt to simplify and then proclaim that he has all the answers and knowledge and that we are NOT listening to his brilliance... which his post history would show brilliance within Pumpkinhead (at least in regard to his bitcoin proclamations) is far from an actual tangible.. Though he may be brilliant at spreading FUD and/or derailing us from engaging in meaningful and productive discussions.
