Counting down the top 5 from Long Reads Sunday #63.

#5 was @DoveyWan's take on the "Bitcoin Bull on top disguising the Altcoin Bear underneath." This was a great expression of the most common answer when I asked why CT seemed glum despite BTC performing.
#4 was @fredwilson's post "Some Thoughts On Crypto," as introduced by @Melt_Dem as exemplary of a certain "trough of despair" with interesting implications for the next 12-18 months.
#3 was @mikejcasey's reflections on BOE Governor Mark Carney's recent comments on why central banks should band together to create a Synthetic Hegemonic Currency.

The Overton Window on disrupting USD's status as the global reserve currency is way expanded these days.
#2 was @WolfieZhao excellent reporting for @coindesk on the acceleration of the efforts to get China's official digital currency out to compete with Facebook's Libra.
And #1 could only be @nic__carter's latest missive "A most peaceful revolution," a look at why bitcoin and cryptocurrencies, by competing with functions that were previously only available to governments, are inherently destabilizing to the state power structure. Must. Read.
