Joseph Stiglitz, a Nobel-Prize winning economist, says cryptocurrencies should be shut down. He worries that they enable illicit activity by making money transactions less transparent.

Still, he sees the value in digital payments systems and supports electronic use of government-backed currencies like the dollar.

Ive been a great advocate of moving to an electronic payments mechanism. There are a lot of efficiencies. I think we can actually have a better regulated economy if we had all the data in real time, knowing what people are spending, he says.

Hes already talking about the transparency and blockchain technology have all the datas in real time. I dont know if he just one to promote his upcoming books on what but Im not convinced with this guy. Cryptocurrency will never be shutdown, it will make the economy grow and thats the future.

if you are a part of the old adopters of crypto and then this is not the only one. he just an example about how the haters of crypto were always talking about a bullshit thing.

As a winner of Nobel-Prize from the centralized institution (you know that) and it's a common thing for him to do that. That guy never knows what he was talking about. he was saying if we must be pegged to the centralized system that can freeze our money without any reason. that's a joke.
