RE: The Dark Side of the Bitcoin
Very important points raised in this well-written post.
As for those prediction about a global currency - I believe the people making those predictions assumed that the global currency would be under the control of multinational organizations/governments, not decentralized cryptos like bitcoin.
In the case of Timothy C. May if he was predicting a decentralized currency. And with respect to The Economist I could not tell you, maybe they do not speak of a decentralized currency at all, but of one that has much greater freedom than the common currencies.
