With an automated and perfectly predictable monetary policy, and the ability to perform the final settlement of large sums across the world in a matter of minutes, Bitcoin’s real competitive edge might just be as a store of value and network for the final settlement of large payments—a digital form of gold with a built-in settlement infrastructure.</p><p>Ammous’ firm grasp of the technological possibilities as well as the historical realities of monetary evolution provides for a fascinating exploration of the ramifications of voluntary free market money.
