Innovation in Compliance – Keith Laska – Bitcoin: Investment or Monetary System?

Innovation comes in many forms, and compliance professionals need to not only be ready for it but also embrace it. Today, I visited Keith Laska to talk about his work in the realm of bitcoin and as a blockchain educator.

Keith Laska, a professor at Fordham University and founder of learnbitcoin.io, says that Laska’s perspective on bitcoin is that it can serve as both an investment and a monetary system, depending on the individual’s location and use case.

In the United States, he sees bitcoin as a high-growth investment that can outpace inflation, while in countries with high inflation rates like Argentina, Turkey, or Lebanon, he views bitcoin as a more stable and reliable monetary system compared to their local currencies.

This dual perspective is shaped by his extensive experience and dedication to staying at the forefront of the evolving field of bitcoin and blockchain.

Key Highlights:

  • Evolution of Bitcoin from 2009 to ETFs
  • Blackrock’s Successful Spot Bitcoin ETFs Approval
  • Enhancing Compliance with Blockchain Contracts and AI
  • Fluency in Bitcoin: Educating Future Industry Professionals
