Nowhere in the article does our man try to describe what 'money' is. Since he claims to have read Saifedean, here's what Saifedean says :
Most of the arguments he makes have been made time and again since at least 2013.
The least he could do is 'steel-man' those arguments.
But last we checked, Austrian economics 'has only one hammer'..

Don't harass Mr. @kaul_vivek , he understands and writes well on other subjects.
This is a warning to the rest of you - don't trust anyone, not even us. Do your own independent research and hope you're not wrong.
Our take - bitcoin is still in the process of *becoming* money, a process described by Menger in 1871 (see page 257 and onwards here)
