Investment Wars: Will The Crypto Ecosystem Disrupt Both Fiat Currency And Digital Technologies?

April 16, 2024 by Obsidian CIO
Podcasts

Debate: Will the Crypto Ecosystem Disrupt Both Fiat Currency and Digital Technologies?

Featuring: David LaValle, Senior Managing Director and Global Head of ETFs at Grayscale Investments, the world’s largest digital currency asset manager.

We discuss how cryptocurrencies may live side by side with a fiat currency like the US Dollar or the Nigerian Naira to use an example of a weaker currency and financial system and how one may think through elements of the crypto ecosystem such as currencies, smart contracts, and financial systems.

Topics include:

  • What just happened in Nigeria! And why?
  • Are cryptocurrencies a storer of value, a type of currency or both?
  • Crypto basics
  • Disruptive technology and future innovation
