Recommendation

Journalist Yang Yanqing gathers a panel whose opinions on cryptoassets range from wariness to evangelism. Nobel Prize-winning economist Robert Shiller and Swedish central bank deputy governor Cecilia Skingsley warn investors to proceed with caution. Cryptoasset enthusiast Jennifer Zhu Scott urges full steam ahead. Technology investor Neil Rimer takes a measured pro-bitcoin stance. Just weeks after this Davos 2018 panel, bitcoin made headlines when its price dropped dramatically. Thus, getAbstract suggests this timely talk to investors and financial professionals.

Take-Aways

  • You should view bitcoin as an asset, not a currency. Bitcoin makes a poor “medium of exchange,” so it won’t replace conventional money.
  • Still, enthusiasts say bitcoin offers an alternative to state-manipulated currencies and may disrupt the gold, venture capital and initial public offering markets.
  • As an asset, bitcoin faces a few rules, such as “investor protections.” But more regulation would make bitcoin attractive to mainstream investors.
