I think a few generalizations are very fair to make. Take Frabk for example and his new religion of Bitcoin. Is that an example of someone with a rock solid understanding of economis and monetary systems or someone who is simlly driven to go against the current in most things in life?

Bitcoins are religion
Bitcoins are a protest movement
Bitcoins are a short term gamble for experiences investors
Bitcoins are a long term gamble for inexperienced investors
Bitcoins attract conspiracy theorist, truthers and kooks
The list could go on and on

Bitcoins are a lot of things to a lot of people and almost all of it has zero to do with rational economics or basic understanding of monetary systems and currencies.

Here is the simple test to know when people have completely derailed from rational thought.., observe how certain people are. Certainty of ones beliefs is the first sign of irrationality.if you are certain of the future if bitcoins, then you aren't thinking clearly or rationally on the subject.
