Krugman, in a real way, is why Bitcoin exists.

He literally advocated a housing bubble. (Broken Window fallacy)

The housing bubble collapsed causing bailouts of banks.

Bitcoin is a direct response to this nationalization of private losses. Not to mention the century of financial corruption that preceded it.

Satoshi was not coy.

The genesis block contains the text: “Chancellor on brink of second bailout for banks”.

Of course Krugman is a “skeptic”.

Bitcoin repudiates his entire career, ideology and work, and is having a significant positive impact in the world.

Unlike Krugman.

Every year bitcoin continues it gets stronger, it rewards supporters and forces the corrupt banking system Krugman endorses into the light a bit more.

Krugman and other nocoiners hate bitcoin?

Bitcoin don’t care.

This is what you have to understand about bitcoin:

Bitcoin doesn’t have to care.

It’s the first real tool of individual financial sovereignty.
