J. Christopher Giancarlo, former Chairman of the US Commodity Futures Trading Commission talked about how a digital, tokenized US currency that co-exists with other Federal Reserve liabilities as a settlement medium will meet the demands of the new digital world for a cheaper, faster and more inclusive global financial system.
Opening Keynote:
“We Sent a Man to the Moon, we Can Send the Dollar into Cyberspace: The case for a Digital Dollar” The digital Twenty-First Century is underserved by an analog reserve currency. A digital Dollar will help future-proof the greenback and allow individuals and global enterprises to make payments in Dollars irrespective of space and time.
