Will crypto-currencies replace fiat currencies in the next decade? Will blockchain technology make life easier? Will traditional finance and decentralised finance converge soon? Suvo Sarkar poses these and other consequential questions to Phil Sham, the founder CEO of Aquanow, one of the leading crypto-currency infrastructure companies of the world.
With a telecom giant in UAE launching bitcoin payments for phone bills, can cafes and restaurants be far behind? Regulators are working hard to keep pace with the rapid progress in the crypto world and some governments are about to launch their own stablecoins. Should investors treat crypto as a new asset class? And should high street banks open up crypto trading on their mobile apps?
In an interesting conversation about the future of money, Phil and Suvo discuss why the Middle East is ahead of the curve, how to salvage the reputation of cryptocurrencies and the connection between crypto and cello.
