  Zu Mileis Verteidigung 04.10.2024 – von Philipp Bagus und Bernardo Ferrero Während die Mehrheit der Libertären Mileis Eintritt in die Politik und seine Maßnahmen als Präsident mit Wohlwollen betrachtet, teilen nicht alle Libertären diese Ansicht. Oscar Grau zum Beispiel hat einige kritische Artikel[1] geschrieben, in denen er die Innen- und Außenpolitik von Milei analysiert. In Bezug auf Ersteres hat Grau argumentiert, dass Mileis Ansatz...

Besitzer von Kryptowährungen stehen immer auch vor der Frage, wie sie ihre Krypto-Assets so aufbewahren können, dass sie vor Verlust durch Hackerangriffe oder auch vergessene Zugangsdaten möglichst geschützt sind. Häufig gelten Hardware-Wallets hier als die beste Aufbewahrungsmethode, einige Experten finden jedoch auch hier Kritikpunkte. Ethereum-Mitgründer Vitalik Buterin setzt daher auf eine besonders sichere Variante der Krypto-Verwahrung. • Hardware Wallets...

Ladies and gentlemen I am very pleased to welcome you to the eighth Karl Brunner Distinguished Lecture. We are delighted and honoured that Professor Kristin Forbes accepted our invitation. I would like to thank the ETH Zurich and its President, Joël Mesot, for their hospitality. When we began our search for tonight’s speaker, we had specific qualities in mind. We were looking for an exceptional economist who is at home both in academia and policy, and who can...

Those who scoff at the notion that nuclear war between the United States and Russia is an increasing possibility have an advantage in the argument. If they prove to be correct, they will be able to crow, “See, I told you worrywarts that there was nothing to be concerned about. Putin wasn’t about the start a nuclear war no matter how much we pushed, provoked, and dared him.” On the other hand, if there is a nuclear war, those of us who warned about that...

By contrast, the free market—to the extent it was allowed to operate in the age of classical liberalism—was a...

It is off around 1% after Bank of England Governor Bailey seemed to signal that after pausing last month, the central bank may turn more aggressive here in Q4. Nearly all the emerging market currencies are lower. Global equities and...
