The Economics and Politics of Cryptocurrencies co-hosted by Dr. Richard Salsman and special guest, Jack Kriesel!

<p>In this special co-hosted session of Atlas Society Senior Scholar, Dr.Richard Salsman's monthly Morals &amp; Markets Seminar he discusses:</p> <p>&nbsp;<em>Are cryptocurrencies genuine or instead fraudulent as monies?</em></p> <p>&nbsp;<em>What role have they played in the economy so far, and how might they influence the future?</em></p> <p>&nbsp;<em>What explains their attraction?</em></p> <p>&nbsp;<em>What are their main risks and might they spread as a contagion globally?</em></p> <p>&nbsp;<em>Do cryptocurrencies differ materially (Bitcoin, Ether, Solana, USD Coin) and if so, why might it matter?</em></p> <p>&nbsp;<em>El Salvador has designated Bitcoin as legal tender, while other states (China) are hostile to cryptocurrencies. Are they an alternative to government fiat monies or instead a possible model for well-run public digital currencies?&nbsp;&nbsp;</em></p> <p>with Duke Economics Student and writer for Bitcoin Magazine, Jack Kriesel. Jack, a former nay sayer of Bitcoin, has become one of its strongest young advocates!
