Cloud Money – Cash, Cards, Crypto and the War for our Wallets
Brett Scott’s new book has just been published. It reads easily, flowing along at a great pace. The book lays out with wonderful clarity what money is, how every type of ‘money’ has become what it is from cash to central bank digital currencies (CBDC), with every variant in between, and how the financial system works and interconnects.
Cloud Money puts all this in the context of economics, technology, psychology and societies, describing the forces pushing the digital agenda and the implications of just living with what is happening. The author lays out the implications of the choice we are making, whether consciously or not.
Unsurprisingly, Brett suggests you buy ‘Cloud Money – Cash, Cards, Crypto and the War for our Wallets’ using cash in an independent book shop, but you can buy it online too! Its currently in English, German and Dutch but with other languages to follow.
