From Gold to Bitcoin. Towards a World Wide Currency

Money is powerful because it is prejudiced by neither language nor race. It simply looks for growth at the minimum risk possible. It is rational and impartial.  However, country leaders insist that owning a currency is important to manage monetary policy. Is this nationalistic view still relevant for global financial markets?  Shouldn’t we push instead for a worldwide currency?

During the session, we will be discussing what money is, the elements for something to be considered money, money before and after gold, bitcoin, blockchain and how we could one day have a real worldwide currency that will promote worldwide trade, entrepreneurship and wealth.
