IW Podcast: Unravelling The Hype Around Bitcoin
In this month's podcast, Investment Week reporters Jayna Rana and Mike Sheen speak to industry figures about the pros and cons of Bitcoin and what we can expect from the cryptocurrency.
Bitcoin hit headlines throughout last year as it became the fastest-growing asset in the world, but there is still a lot of mystery around the cryptocurrency, what it is and what it means for the future of investing.
For the first podcast of 2018, Investment Week speaks to Michel Perera, chief investment officer at Canaccord Genuity Wealth Group, who explains what Bitcoin actually is, before talking to sceptic Guy Stephens of Rowan Dartington and Mangrove Capital Partner's Michael Jackson, a Bitcoin enthusiast.
Comment below to tell us your thoughts on Bitcoin and cryptocurrencies in general.
