Matthew & Fernando interview Laura Davidson & Walter Block, two Austrian economists who've written a paper in 2015 addressing Bitcoin and Ludwig von Mises's famous Regression Theorem.

Many economists have been puzzled by the emergence of Bitcoin. Is it money? Does it violate Mises's Regression Theorem on money? What precisely is the crux of the Regression Theorem? Does Bitcoin satisfy its requirements? Or does it even apply to Bitcoin? Laura and Walter give a fascinating overview as they revisit their important paper from 2015. Their paper is linked below and titled, "Bitcoin, the Regression Theorem, and the Emergence of a New Medium of Exchange."
