That is one of the best quotes I've read on bitcoin.
The western world is waking up to distrusting their governments. In a low-tech way, most 3rd world countries have been there for decades. Squirreling away savings is a behavior enforced upon citizens with acquisitive governments (hello Cyprus!).
The world is changing, and bitcoin is there to help.
