EP31: Sam Callahan Of Swan Bitcoin on Central Banks and The BIS View on Bitcoin and Crypto

Part 2

In this episode of Navigating Bitcoin’s Noise, I am joined by Sam Callahan who is an analyst at Swan Bitcoin. In our conversation, we discuss The Bank For International Settlements' recent paper, The Future Monetary System. Sam shares his deep central banking knowledge as we dive deeper into their views on central bank digital coins, digital money, and the role they believe central banks should play in the build out of the crypto ecosystem.

The paper contends that crypto markets are inadequate and unsafe because Bitcoin and crypto are not managed at the central bank level. Sam and I offer counters to these points, while also acknowledging that in the era of central banking we’ve witnessed 208 currency crises.

If you’re looking to better understand bitcoin’s past and its future potential as an economic network, then join us and listen in.
