Krugman did a good job of enumerating the costs of Bitcoin.  He also did
a good job of enumerating the benefits of alternatives to Bitcoin.
However, he was incapable or unwilling to identify even a single
possible benefit of Bitcoin, and therefore could not discuss whether any
benefits might exceed the cost for certain people at certain times.  But
at least he asked.
