Why Progressives Should Love Bitcoin: An Open Letter to Senator Elizabeth Warren

SAMANTHA MESSING, AUG 13, 2021 - Dear Senator Warren, I am a fan. I think you are very smart, and you genuinely care about building a more equitable society. But respectfully, when you talk about Bitcoin, you sound silly. Bitcoin is not powered by a “shadowy faceless group of super coders.” It is not a “scam,” it is not “bogus private digital money,” it is not “highly opaque,” and it is not built to “assist criminals.”
