Say what you like about Atlas.  And yeah, it's mostly true.

But the odds are looking like he was right...

While I share the belief that bitcoin or something very like it will play a major role in the future, I think the road there is going to be a lot rougher.

I imagine we will see a huge boom then a bust, after that those who stick around will build the meaning full economy that will allow bitcoin or its successor to dominate.
this was "visionaire".

The cost of mediation increases transaction costs, limiting the
minimum practical transaction size and cutting off the possibility for small casual transactions

That was Atlas, who had many alt accounts (~23 last I heard, likely more through proxies) that he jumped on when he made an idiot of himself/got too many ignores/forgot to take his meds/whatever. He did leave 4-5 months ago though.

I've probably jinxed it by saying his name and he'll be back tomorrow.

I didn't mind him, but he was young and prone to aggravate both friend & foe alike.

"The powers of financial capitalism had another far-reaching aim, nothing less than to create a world system of financial control in private hands able to dominate the political system of each country and the economy of the world as a whole. This system was to be controlled in a feudalist fashion by the central banks of the world acting in concert, by secret agreements arrived at in frequent meetings and conferences. The apex of the systems was to be the Bank for International Settlements in Basel, Switzerland, a private bank owned and controlled by the world's central banks which were themselves private corporations. Each central bank...sought to dominate its government by its ability to control Treasury loans, to manipulate foreign exchanges, to influence the level of economic activity in the country, and to influence cooperative politicians by subsequent economic rewards in the business world."

I thought the Randian Heros actually created something in those stories? All Atlas did was expose everyone to his diarrhea of the mouth! He was actually more like the villains who just sat around and talked.

Exactly - Atlas had all the ideas of the "Randian Hero" but he possessed absolutely zero followthrough to his ambition.  Which sort of misses Rand's point.  I do think that Atlas put forward some ideas and ambition that OTHERS actually wound up acting on - often with substantial changes, but he put things out there and drove the community in the early days.  IE I think bitcoin's trajectory might have been quite different without Atlas for all his flaws.
