Title: What is Phil Zimmermann's opinion on Bitcoin?
Post by: vit05 on May 20, 2018, 09:36:28 PM
Phil Zimmermann (https://www.philzimmermann.com/EN/news/index.html) is the creator of Pretty Good Privacy (PGP)
I'm looking for some article or news where he expresses his opinion about Bitcoin and Cryptocurrencies, but I have not found any relevant. Is there any good article where he comments on this new economy? Could it be about any particular project or about blockchains.

He is deffinately a wise man, but how can it be, that many rich and skilled people there above us are having the opposite opinions?
