Rothbard wrote a book in 1970 titled: The Case For A 100% Gold Backed Currency.
Many libertarians are gold bugs who got into bitcoin before 2015 because it was "Digital Gold." It was also the title of one of the first Bitcoin books by Nathaniel Popper. Therefore, there a lot of libertarians were attracted to Bitcoin in the early days because of this. They are also a group that is really into conspiracy theories, so I expect the price to drop until these libertarians get shaken out.
