If you want to read something really depressing, read this WaPo article about young libertarians duping old farmers into putting their retirement savings into bitcoin: https://www.washingtonpost.com/business/economy/bitcoin-is-my-potential-pension-what-is-driving-people-in-kentucky-to-join-the-craze/2018/02/03/aaaea3be-05dc-11e8-b48c-b07fea957bd5_story.html?utm_term=.7626e334f652

For all intents and purposes bitcoin is a pyramid scheme, so at least these people will probably go to jail at some point.

I saw nowhere in the article libertarians or farmers.
