The weekend financial news roundup covered topics from Bitcoin's potential to address the U.S. national debt, Edward Snowden's critique of Janet Yellen, to the unexpected rise in inflation affecting Federal Reserve decisions. Coinbase CEO Brian Armstrong suggested Bitcoin as a solution to the national debt crisis. Edward Snowden highlighted a contradiction in Yellen's statements regarding U.S. financial capabilities.
