		ZeroMinx on May 29, 2011 \| parent \| context \| favorite \| on: Why I’m Putting All My Savings Into Bitcoin Let's be clear that this is Rick Falkvinge, founder of the first Pirate Party. His title is now "political evangelist". It's not surprising that he's in favour of a currency that is free from government control. (Not that I disagree with him in general, I just thought this is something to take into account reading this article)

Not to mention that he probably already owns a lot of bitcoins and has a massive vested interest in seeing them become worth more.
