IMF: “National cryptocurrencies regulated by central banks”

The International Monetary Fund well-disposed towards cryptocurrencies in a regulated context in which national governments create their own cryptocurrencies and central banks take them into their services. As reported by Phillip Inman on the Guardian, Christine Lagarde defines this technology “safe, cheap, and potentially semi-anonymous”.
A system regulated by central banks could become the basis for a rapid expansion of financial services to developing world countries and the poorest people in western societies.
