Blockchains allow for decentralized trust through consensus and incentives to address issues caused by centralized trust being hacked in the digital world. While the technology is abstract and complex, blockchains represent a revolution in the economy by enabling new applications like cashless remittances, digital identity, and asset tokenization. However, challenges remain around security, governance, custody, regulation, access to talent, and fragmentation as the industry works to develop mainstream applications beyond just currency.

The document summarizes the current and future state of Bitcoin. It discusses how Bitcoin has grown significantly in recent years in terms of market capitalization, transactions processed per day, and community support. However, it is still in the early stages. The document outlines several technologies that could help Bitcoin scale to support more users through additional layers on top of the core blockchain like payment channels and sidechains. This would allow for near-instant and low-cost transactions. Other future applications mentioned include using the blockchain to represent identity and enable smart contracts for digital assets like property. The document also speculates on more futuristic uses of Bitcoin in space for cloud computing and as a censorship-resistant communication network.

Why Decentralised Finance:
- Open DeFi ecosystem limited by specific blockchain only (ETH, EOS, etc.)
- Decentralized assets exchange, no need for sending assets to centralized platforms
- Global reach, no boarders in assets transfer

Top 5 Potentially Profitable Cryptocurrencies from 2020-21Kelghe D'cruz
2020 is the year of the corona virus, with almost all financial markets disrupted in all directions. More and more people are looking for alternatives to their savings accounts and are quickly turning to cryptocurrency. In this presentation, we will see which cryptocurrency can perform well between 2020-21 and why.
A Data-Centric Perspective of the Recent Crypto-Bull Runintotheblock
Crypto is known for its volatile price cycles, in which prices can appreciate over 20x and then retrace as much as 80%. Behind these cycles there is a vast amount of data that can be useful to understand the underlying growth and progress behind the noise.
In this webinar, we’ll dive into key metrics highlighting the broader trend and adoption of crypto-assets. We’ll compare the current cycle vs previous ones, discuss the evolution of crypto and what may come next.

The document discusses fiat currency, stablecoins, and cryptocurrency. It defines fiat currency as government-issued currency that is not backed by a physical commodity and derives its value from supply and demand. Stablecoins are described as cryptocurrencies with stable value that is collateralized by underlying assets like USD to reduce volatility. Cryptocurrency 2.0 refers to stablecoins capturing desired characteristics of existing payment systems and cryptocurrencies by being regulated, stable stores of value with lower transaction costs and times.
Cryptocurrencies and blockchains - the outlook for Bitcoin into this constell...Kristian Rosenov, MBA
This document provides an overview of cryptocurrencies and blockchains, with a focus on Bitcoin. It begins with definitions of key terms like cryptocurrencies, Bitcoins, and blockchains. It then discusses the technology behind cryptocurrencies, including cryptography and encryption. It explains the Bitcoin transaction process and block validation. The document also covers the theoretical analysis of Bitcoin as money, including its classification and a comparison to the evolution of conventional currencies. It discusses governmental acceptance and economic acceptance of cryptocurrencies. Other topics covered include financial security, legality, and anonymity in relation to the underworld. The empirical section describes the methodology used for primary data collection and analysis to test hypotheses about the functionality and efficiency of conventional versus cryptocurrencies.
Konstantins Vasilenko gave a talk about current Bitcoin scalability challenges, existing and upcoming solutions, as well as insights about Bitcoin adoption and why it's not yet widely used as a payment instrument.
The document discusses cryptocurrency and blockchain technology. It begins by asking whether people like or dislike cryptocurrency. It then provides explanations of key concepts related to blockchain like how blockchain batches transactions into blocks and uses cryptography to securely link blocks together in a distributed ledger. It provides an analogy comparing transactions, blocks, and the blockchain to lines, chapters, and a book. It discusses why someone may want to reverse transactions and explains the process of mining blocks for verification and rewards. Finally, it summarizes some terms related to cryptocurrency and blockchain and asks if the reader understands.
This document discusses Bitcoin and cryptocurrencies. It begins with a brief history of Bitcoin and an explanation of what cryptocurrencies are and how Bitcoin works. It describes how Bitcoin transactions are recorded in a public ledger called a blockchain and how new Bitcoins are generated through "mining." The document outlines some benefits of Bitcoin like lower transaction costs but also drawbacks like volatility. It examines alternative cryptocurrencies and recent events like the collapse of the Mt. Gox Bitcoin exchange. It concludes by speculating on potential future scenarios for cryptocurrencies and their ability to drive innovation.
Bitcoin is a decentralized digital currency that allows people to transfer funds between each other without a central authority. It operates on a peer-to-peer network where transactions are verified by miners who are rewarded with bitcoins. While bitcoin offers anonymity and accessibility, it also faces security risks like theft and price volatility due to its limited supply and speculative nature. Whether bitcoin can replace traditional currencies as a stable store of value remains uncertain.

TAX3 Study on cryptocurrencies and blockchain (1).pdfmohamedlouard
This document analyzes the use of cryptocurrencies for financial crimes like money laundering and tax evasion. It finds that anonymity is the key issue, as it prevents transactions from being monitored and allows criminal activity. The existing EU framework fails to address this anonymity. However, the upcoming 5th Anti-Money Laundering Directive (AMLD5) now includes cryptocurrencies and subjects exchanges and wallet providers to new rules aimed at increasing oversight of transactions. While this is an improvement, some argue the new rules may still leave some players overlooked, creating potential blind spots. The document evaluates whether AMLD5 goes far enough in addressing these criminal issues.
Cyprus bail in revisited - consequences for small economiesMarkets Beyond
Cyprus bail-in is spilling over and the 100% of added burden is falling on the country, with 70% of its gold reserves at risk and EUR 5.8 billion withheld from banks depositis.

This document discusses the four phases of capital market integration in the EU. The first phase focused exclusively on banking integration. The second phase began deregulating capital markets inspired by US markets. The third phase after the crisis established more regulation and supervision at the EU level. The current fourth phase aims to build the Capital Markets Union to boost investment, but faces challenges due to the lack of high quality securities resulting from fiscal constraints and the relegation of weaker economies.

Amazonisation is the future of European Financial ServicesPaperjam_redaction
This document discusses three major trends that will shape the future of European financial services: amazonisation, sustainable finance, and multipolarization.
Amazonisation refers to the trend of clients using digital platforms to inform themselves, compare financial products, and execute transactions. This will make client experience more seamless and transparent. Sustainable finance will become increasingly important as clients, especially millennials, demand more sustainable options. Multipolarization will see the European financial industry become less London-centric and more distributed across key centers that develop specialized expertise in certain industries.
A cryptocurrency is a digital currency, which is an alternative form of payment created using encryption algorithms. The use of encryption technologies means that cryptocurrencies function both as a currency and as a virtual accounting system. To use cryptocurrencies, you need a cryptocurrency wallet.
Greece has faced major economic problems due to years of unrestrained spending, cheap lending, and failure to implement effective financial reforms or collect taxes. This has led to a national debt exceeding €300 billion, over 120% of GDP. Harsh spending cuts and tax hikes aimed at addressing the crisis have been met with public protests. While other European countries have agreed to a rescue plan involving loans to help Greece, there remains concern that Greece may ultimately have to exit the eurozone due to its debt problems.
1. The Financial Services Authority and Serious Organised Crime Agency arrested 7 bankers from a South-London insider trading ring who used leaked information between 2007-2009 to profit from major capital raises by Barclays, Mitsui Banking Corporation, Segro, and Taylor Wimpey.
2. The Royal Bank of Scotland, owned 84% by taxpayers, unveiled a rescue plan to issue up to £15 billion in new debt securities, cash, and equities to bondholders to replace existing debts and increase its capital buffer against future losses.
3. Greece's incorrect deficit reporting to the EU put pressure on the euro currency, dividing the French and German governments on how to resolve the issue, with Germany

Bitcoin shattered expectations by breaking the $70,000 barrier before halving, signaling a new era of unprecedented highs. And this cycle the surge in bitcoin’s value is amplified by the evolving landscape of crypto banking, intertwining digital currencies with traditional finance. The map, based on our data collection and analysis, shows the geography of crypto banking in 2024. The number of banks or financial firms providing cryptocurrency banking services is rapidly increasing, led by Europe with 64 banks, followed by North America with 30 banks, Asia with 24 banks, and South and Central America with 13 banks.

The foreign exchange markets are rapidly developing due to increasing technological efficiencies and globalization. Transactions are being processed faster, allowing for greater trading opportunities and lower costs for companies. While some currency restrictions still exist, the introduction of the euro in Europe has reduced volatility and trading barriers within the region. Looking forward, the Chinese yuan and currencies of emerging markets like Brazil have potential to play a larger global role, especially as direct trading between countries replaces reliance on the US dollar. One trend is for currencies to settle trades between each other rather than through dollar exchanges.
The foreign exchange markets are rapidly developing due to increasing technological capabilities and globalization. Transactions are becoming faster and cheaper, while restrictions on currency movement are diminishing. The introduction of the euro reduced volatility in Europe, but the future of the euro is uncertain due to financial crises. China's yuan and Brazil's real have potential to become more influential as those economies grow. One trend is direct currency trading between nations rather than through the U.S. dollar. Technological advances are shifting trading online, increasing competition and accessibility of foreign exchange.
This document summarizes key questions around the use of cash, particularly by criminal groups for money laundering purposes. While cash usage is declining slightly for regular payments, the total value of euro banknotes in circulation continues to rise beyond inflation levels. A significant proportion of cash in circulation, including high denomination notes, is not used for payments and its purpose is unknown. Law enforcement investigations still find that cash remains the primary method for placing, layering and integrating illegal profits. Criminals use cash to facilitate money laundering as it allows them to conceal profits and maintain control over funds in an anonymous manner.
