How is Scott Horton not a raging Bitcoiner? He has a full understanding of Austrian economics. Maybe he’s too old and cynical. I checked and his new Scott Horton Academy doesn’t accept Bitcoin payments. His personal site does have Bitcoin donations though.
He’s a rare combo: someone who has both encyclopedic knowledge of the history of the US empire, PLUS Austrian economics. I’d be hard pressed to find another person like that. There are a couple of other people with the former, but they’re usually still Keynesian or even, in once case, Marxist.
Maybe The Mises Institute is actually holding him back. Many such cases.
