Guest Dizer Posted November 2, 2016 Share Posted November 2, 2016 Interesting tidbits: Quote Countries around the world — the UK, Russia, Canada, Australia, China and many more — are examining how they might mint their own digital currencies and put money on the blockchain Quote At the Bank of England, radical options are being discussed. One scenario even involves the blockchain being used to bypass high-street banks, with individuals holding accounts directly with the central bank, cutting out the commercial banks’ role as middleman in the circulation of money Quote When a move to official digital currencies might occur is hard to estimate, he says, but a switch could happen within the next five to 10 years Quote “It’s inevitable there will be a government digital currency, eventually,” says Kenneth Rogoff, a professor at Harvard who studies the concept of a “less-cash” society. He believes that cash will never disappear, and that there will always be a role for small notes. “Eventually, there will be government digital currencies that ordinary people have access to at very low cost.” https://www.ft.com/content/f15d3ab6-750d-11e6-bf48-b372cdb1043a Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
