Key quote:
When spoke about spoke about Bitcoin as an alternative to fiat currency debasement. According to Srinivasan: “Ultimately, there are two modalities that people can accept: A, we have total power; B, no one has power over us. On the other hand of the spectrum you have Bitcoin, which is open-state, open-source, open execution, totally inspectable, totally transparent, based on mathematics and no one has power over it.” (Reported by Cointelegraph)
