In the words of Patrick McKenzie's tweet linking to this pdf‏, "Hey look, someone took the time to explain to cryptocurrency enthusiasts why the rest of us perceive money as working".

For those singing the praises of cryptocurrency I pose this question:

Say the United States decides to allow decentralized cryptocurrencies to become the dominant medium of exchange in the US; say it even gets rid of the $USD. What problem do you think this would solve? (assuming the US gov desires to continue all other operations in exactly the same manner as it does currently).
