The Bitcoin community routinely uses the phrase "magic Internet money" to describe Bitcoin. You can verify this trivially via Google. There it is often used with the millenial I'm-joking-but-not-really sensibility. You might reasonably guess that that is not the type of humor I was going for with the reference to the community's in-joke, but that in-joke was not born of ignorance on my part.

People often deploy the word FUD to describe arguments about technology which have no basis in technical fact. Can you identify statements which I've made about Bitcoin which have no basis in technical fact?

I had never heard "magical internet money" before, so I apologise there.

As for the second, FUD was then incorrect. You points were factual. I believe they ignored certain other facts for the convenience of argument (like, most exchanges seemed to know about it). But FUD was the incorrect term.

I'm a bit sad to see my main argument derailed by semantic failures. I guess I need to learn a lot about debating on the internet.
