1210 Cryptocurrency / Bitcoin (??? ?? / ????) - a podcast by tbs eFM

Today’s theme: Cryptocurrency / Bitcoin

It has been said that a wise person should have money in their head but not in their heart - but as we enter what some are calling the 4th Industrial Revolution, a question tugs at our purse strings: Should we have money in our computers? Is this the money of the future or no more than a 21st century unicorn?
It’s well known that South Korea is one of the world’s most wired societies, with near-ubiquitous broadband access and blazing-fast Internet speeds. Now the country is also becoming a hotbed for cryptocurrency trading.

“Have you yourself ever bought Bitcoin, or made Bitcoin transactions? Can you break it down for us? If we wanted to, how could we start using bitcoin?
One of the key underlying technologies of this whole movement is Blockchain. Can you unpack this for us, please: what exactly is Blockchain?”

“Korea’s Bitcoin transaction volume is the third largest in the world, and the price is rising fast. Why is the Bitcoin frenzy seemingly that much fiercer in Korea?
How is Bitcoin different from assets like gold, oil or hedge funds, whose prices can also fluctuate regardless of their product value?”
