ANOTHER VIEW The perils of imaginary money

here was a time when “a penny saved is a penny earned” was all anyone needed to know about T money. That is so 20th century. Money, as we’ve known it (and yearned for it), relies on centralization for its print, its banks and for its insurance (think FDIC). But toward the end of the last century some began to see the centralization of money as monetary “monopoly,” and that unease begat crypto- currency, the go-to coin for those seeking an alternative to money tied to government controls. Cryptocurrencies live on a cloud, waiting to be summoned to Earth. Cryptocurrencies such as Bitcoin and, more recently, Ripple, were eagerly embraced. Millennials, perhaps the segment of society most susceptible to the siren call of money shielded from prying authority, were lured in great numbers to the novelty of cryptocurrencies, free- dom and perceived easy path to wealth.
