CHOMPING AT THE BITCOIN

Bitcoin. What a joke! Remember?Yeah, that was a time not that long ago when the cryptocurrency was easily dismissed as the domain of criminals and stoners and people who didn’t understand how trade, global and otherwise, worked; a pipedream where the pipe emptied directly into the gutter.Remember Visa CFO Vasant Prabhu saying he didn’t know what bothered him more, “every crook and dirty politician” who’d been drawn to Bitcoin or the kindhearted but clueless investors.“With a currency issued by the Federal Reserve, I know who stands behind it,” he said. “With cryptocurrency, who’s good for the money? Who the hell knows?”Bitcoin. What a concept! Remember?
