Professor gives Starkville Rotary Club lesson in cryptocurrency
SUMMARY: Dr. Brian Blank, a finance professor at Mississippi State University, explained cryptocurrency to the Starkville Rotary Club. He described how digital currency, like Bitcoin, works on computers with no physical form. Blank believes that the U.S. may adopt a cryptocurrency model in the future as the Federal Reserve and government are researching it. Cryptocurrency is decentralized, meaning it has no central authority overseeing it. The professor mentioned that the U.S. dollar is already used digitally, so the need for the central bank to produce a digital currency is still being considered due to both benefits and challenges.
