Price speculation is the source of the crypto world's problems, MAS_sg chief Ravi Menon said as he explained the central bank's stance on restricting crypto speculation, while fostering the digital asset ecosystem. By iamsandali
in the country – something Menon reinforced during his Monday speech.
According to Menon, while the digital asset ecosystem uses blockchain, distributed ledger technology and tokenization to allow"anything of value to be represented in digital form, and to be stored and exchanged on a ledger that keeps an immutable record of all transactions" cryptocurrencies are just"heavily speculated upon" while their prices"have nothing to do with any underlying economic value.
"Cryptocurrencies have taken a life of their own outside of the distributed ledger and this is the source of the crypto world’s problems," Menon said. The MAS is instead focusing on actively promoting the digital asset ecosystem that encompasses the tokenization of financial assets like cash and bonds, real assets like artwork and property, and intangible items like carbon credits and computing resources.I hope this presentation has made clear that MAS’ facilitative posture on digital asset activities and restrictive stance on cryptocurrency speculation are not contradictory.
