To ask more specifically: what benefit does a cryptocurrency give you if you still need to trust a central entity? Some guesses of mine: - Could be easier to trade than forex (though I don't think this is currently the case with crypto) - A centralized ledger may reduce the information that individual financial institutions need to store - Blockchains are generally tamper-resistant databases - Blockchain's may be easier to police for e.g. fraud As a consumer, most of those are 'not my problem'. What benefit do you anticipate?
