#TylerCowen adds: "Here is the full NYT story, noting that account holders did not receive (significant) gains in the value of bitcoin that otherwise would have accrued."
Tyler Cowen is a fantastic interviewer, and he brings on really smart, interesting people. He asks prepared questions that are focused on the guest's experience and point of view, with the goal of letting them explore an interesting topic.
Cowen is in the libertarian political space. I don't think I would agree with him on many things, but I find the quality of the conversation to be excellent. I wish every podcaster listened to this show.
@evan I remember the conversation Prof. Cowen did with #JohnMcWhorter: he started with a question having to do with a relatively obscure part of Prof. McWhorter's research, and there was this... shocked pause as McWhorter realised that the interviewer had read a huge part of his writings.
