Dalam panel yang terdiri dari mantan Perdana Menteri Inggris Tony Blair, Menteri Luar Negeri India, Subrahmanyam Jaishankar, dan Clinton, para peserta berbicara tentang kemungkinan Perang Dingin baru antara China dan AS, dan "musuh bersama umat manusia".
Clinton, like many other U.S. top government officials, thinks the cryptocurrency poses a threat to the United States and its currency, the U.S. dollar. The former Secretary of State listed Bitcoin and cryptocurrencies as one of the dangers of the coming decade.
Dalam sebuah daftar, yang terdiri dari disinformasi hingga ketidakseimbangan negara-bangsa, pemanasan global, dan kecerdasan buatan, Clinton percaya bahwa cryptocurrency lebih dari sekadar "upaya yang sangat menarik dan eksotis untuk menambang".
Bitcoin and cryptocurrencies, as Clinton said, have the potential to undermine entire countries, and specifically to potentially render the U.S. dollar obsolete as the global reserve currency. These assets could be utilized by those nations, such as Russia, as obstacles against the interest of the U.S. and its allies.
Dalam visi yang disajikan oleh Clinton ini, aktor jahat menggunakan sumber daya non-negara untuk "mengejar tujuan pribadi dan rasionalistik". Mantan Menteri Luar Negeri dapat merujuk pada kelompok peretas dan bentuk kegiatan terlarang lainnya oleh Rusia dan negara lain.
These organizations used their technological capabilities to target companies and institutions in the Western Hemisphere, to demand Bitcoin and crypto payments. Thus, Clinton seems to admire China’s approach to cryptocurrencies and believes other nations should take the same approach, in other words, a full-on ban on these assets:
Tampaknya China akan mencegah sistem pembayaran teknologi luar, seperti pengembangan cryptocurrency, dari memainkan peran besar di dalam China. Saya pikir mereka mengakui, memberikan nasionalisme mereka, mungkin lebih awal dari negara lain, bahwa ini bisa menjadi ancaman langsung terhadap kedaulatan.
Bitcoin To Destabilize The World?
The former U.S. government official continued presenting her hypothetical scenario where Bitcoin and cryptocurrencies could should they fall “in the wrong hands”, potentially destroy entire nation-states. Furthermore, the alleged mayhem could extend to the entire “global currency market”.
Grafik Bitcoin and the crypto community responded with mixed feelings. Some believe that BTC is finally getting the recognition it deserves and that Clinton’s words are a form of legitimation.
Di sisi lain, yang lain percaya bahwa Mantan Menteri Luar Negeri dan Ibu Negara AS melewatkan inovasi dan peningkatan yang dapat difasilitasi oleh cryptocurrency dalam sistem keuangan lama.
Other U.S. government officials, including the current FED Chair Jerome Powell and the Secretary of the Treasury Janet Yellen, have called Bitcoin a “speculative attack on the dollar”. The country seems to be becoming more hostile towards the crypto industry, but only time will tell if it follows Clinton’s recommendation and takes a similar stand to China’s.
