Cryptocurrencies can destabilize global currency markets and states. Former US Secretary of State Clinton warned about the dangers of digital assets at the New Economy forum.

“What looks very interesting and exotic… could undermine currencies, undermine the dollar’s role as a reserve currency, and destabilize countries,” Clinton said. “A whole new level of activity has emerged, which can be very destructive and, in the wrong hands, can pose a direct threat to many nations and, of course, to global currency markets.”
