Description

What do Rapper Jay-Z and former CEO of Twitter, Jack Dorsey have in common? No it's not music... It’s Bitcoin.  If you spend enough time around people who believe that crypto can transform society, you’ll eventually hear them make an argument about financial inclusion. Jay-Z has teamed up with Dorsey on what they’re calling Bitcoin Academy, with the goal of educating and empowering people  through financial literacy — with a focus on Bitcoin. Bloomberg reporters Paulina Cachero and Akayla Gardner join to discuss Bitcoin Academy and whether Bitcoin is truly the key to a more financially inclusive society.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Crypto is the world's hottest financial trend. Digital tokens like Bitcoin and NFTs have moved from niche products to showing up in Super Bowl commercials and song lyrics.  Advocates of these new asset classes promise they will democratize the finance industry, and they hail the blockchain technology that backs it all as the future of computing. Skeptics say it's another financial house of cards. No newsroom on the planet is better equipped than Bloomberg to cut through all the noise and provide clarity, context and authority. In this new daily podcast, Bloomberg’s reporting team will tease out what’s actually important in the crypto conversation. Led by crypto expert Stacy-Marie Ishmael, the podcast will draw on reporters in every region and credible voices in the industry to cover everything from regulation to alt coins to DeFi, and even the environmental impact of the currency that promises to change the finance landscape indefinitely.
