Austrian economics is one of these impenetrable black boxes that you hear referenced occasionally but that has little meaning for many people.
Recently I was perusing Cameron Harwick's blog, Thrica where I periodically go to soak up some free market goodness, and I found myself re-reading
a post entitled Hayek vs. Rothbard on Free-Market Money. The article and the comments illucidate many interesting and relevant ideas that can not
only help us understand cryptocurrency but also show that the problem of discovering what is a good kind of money has been mulled over by
brilliant people long before the cypherpunks sunk their teeth into it. A clearly novel approach has been taken by the team working on Bitshares.
I asked Dan Larimer to explane the roots of his idea and update us on the progress of the platform.
