Andy Haldane: bitcoin as money is a fanciful idea that should fill us with horror
Published 4 years, 11 months ago
Description
The Bank of England's outgoing chief economist, Andy Haldane, tells Merryn why he isn't a fan of bitcoin as money; why the BoE is actively considering its own digital cash (and what that would mean for you); plus Covid and our stellar economic recovery, where inflation could go next, and how we avoid ending up like the 1970s.
