A few years ago, when I wanted to understand why people who were much smarter than me, and who had studied economics (whereas I hadn't at all), didn't understand Bitcoin, I wanted to understand (or rather, let's say I wanted to be sure that I wasn't making the wrong choices in life!).
So I started investigating to find out what they knew that I was missing, to see if I was wrong (as they claimed).
After months of looking into the programmes of the most prestigious universities, notably the Sorbonne, I realised that the answer could be summed up in a single word: indoctrination (into Kenesianism, of course).
But I never had the influence or legitimacy to express it anywhere other than in the corner of a bar at a Meetup after a few beers!
It would be crucial that many more economists from these fields come to the same realisation, and above all, express it publicly and actively.
