> The philosopher ties Bitcoin’s appeal to its role as a refuge from money printing and expects academics to understand it after innovators, finance professionals and journalists.

Philosopher Troy Cross argues that Bitcoin’s price action can help explain the asset to non-Bitcoiners, while its broader case rests on separating money from the state.

Cross says that when people turn to Bitcoin as a refuge, it can limit governments’ ability to expand the money supply. He connects that role to making money less dependent on the state.

He also sees a gap between Bitcoin’s appeal and public understanding. Cross expects academics to understand Bitcoin later than innovators, people in finance and journalists.
