Fiat chaos engulfing global economy. A perfect storm for #Bitcoin — up $1,000 since I mentioned earlier today; my gut feeling is, we see $15,000 this week.

3. Jimmy Song’s tweet on the benefits of electronic payments
"A purely peer-to-peer version of electronic cash would allow online payments to be sent directly from one party to another without going through a financial institution."
Satoshi's concern wasn't that payment would be fast, but that payment wouldn't require a central authority.

The problem is fiat money.
Fiat money, fractional reserve banking, reckless money printing, the Cantillon effect, negative interest rates, predatory lending, and lawless banks like JP Morgan all contribute to an atmosphere that breeds mass killers. #Bitcoin is the solution. https://t.co/CNqa6LKths— Max Keiser, tweet poet.

Are all crypto projects besides Bitcoin a scam? There might be a few that are not, but the safest default position as a noob is to assume everything is a scam until proven otherwise.
