In times of crisis, credibility is an American president’s most valuable currency. Antony Blinken

Alan Greenspan
The first panacea for a mismanaged nation is inflation of the currency; the second is war. Both bring a temporary prosperity; both bring a permanent ruin. But both are the refuge of political and economic opportunists. Ernest Hemingway

If I put it to you this way, on the run-up to the O2 concert, the only music that we played was music of Led Zeppelin – the past catalog stuff; that’s what we played on the way towards shaping up the set list for that. But we played really, really well. Jimmy Page

I think that the future of currency is digital, and Bitcoin has a good shot at being the currency of the future. Adam Draper

Here’s a certainty: When you play out your personal dramas, hurt and self-interest in the media, it’s a confection.

It’s all rehearsed. Michael Wolff

I regard the bitcoin craze as totally asinine to create some manufactured currency. Charlie Munger

John Naisbitt
A weak currency is the sign of a weak economy, and a weak economy leads to a weak nation. Ross Perot
I think the best projects understand that they don’t need to invent a new currency. They don’t need to use the block chain as their long-term data storage solution. And they don’t need to use the peer-to-peer network as their communication mechanism. They should use the block chain as the world’s most secure distributed ledger. Gavin Andresen
The world is a global economy. I thought, ‘It’s a bummer we don’t have a unifying currency.’ Then I saw Bitcoin had already had a crash and had the resistance to recover. The community was strong enough to push it through again. That’s really exciting. Adam Draper

Therefore, when Iran cannot take this money back as currency, they withdraw Turkish lira and buy gold from our market. Ali Babacan
I love the beautiful distractions of the world – television and movies, video games, the Internet in general. But I try really hard to avoid them, because they don’t help me become a better writer. They subtract hours from my day. And a writer’s main currency is time. Time to daydream, time to walk and think, time to sit and do the work. Nick Petrie

You’ll be using digital currency. I think really what will happen is you’ll use a combination of bitcoin, ether, your devices, the ‘Internet of Things.’ We’ve got billions of devices coming online. Tyler Winklevoss
Salvation cannot be bought with the currency of obedience; it is purchased by the blood of the Son of God.

Or thinking that after paying rent for our home, we now hold title to the entire planet earth. Dieter F. Uchtdorf
It’s important to understand how Coinbase thinks about regulation and compliance in the digital currency space. As an exchange, we view compliance as key to digital currency’s success. Brian Armstrong
