Everywhere in the modern world, money is plagued with political problems. Bitcoin’s success, with no help – and, indeed, much opposition – from political authorities around the world, shows just how valuable it is to avoid these problems.

Nevertheless, as important an innovation as cryptocurrency is, it comes with its own unique problems.
