Bitcoin /Blockchain 101

A New Currency?

Spring 2023 joint meeting with the Harvard Club

 

---

In the last few years you've likely heard of the new entries into the confluence of money and technology - Bitcoin and its brethren. These instances of crypto currency, short for the concept of cryptographic currency, gives you yet another vehicle  that may be viewed as money, investment, or gambling . Phil Nehro, CFP, will give us a primer talk unraveling the unknowns around this new technology.

The provably correct computer science algorithm named blockchain forms the solid technological base on which crypto currencies stand. A provably correct algorithm is one thing; a reliable storage for your money is another. Any currency must be based on trust - we must trust that the chunk of gold with the king's likeness you give me is worth what it claims to be worth. We must trust that the green piece of paper with Andrew Jackson's portrait and the number 20 is worth what we've agreed is $20. Why should I trust that 1 Bitcoin is worth what you say it's worth? Let alone why trust that the further derivative called an NFT is worth what Tom Brady says it is? (Spoiler alert - better to trust that he can throw a winning touchdown pass than he can correctly value an NFT).
