Listen or watch all the new CoinDesk podcast episodes wherever you want.
ABOUT
CoinDesk’s Chief Content Officer Michael Casey and Head of Research Noelle Acheson join for a lively debate about the new $2 trillion stimulus package and era of “unlimited” QE, including:
- Whether (and on what time scale) fiscal and monetary stimulus might lead to inflation
- Whether the Fed buying corporate bonds amounts to a nationalization of the bond markets
- Why the appearance of a ‘digital dollar’ in an earlier stimulus proposal was a huge surprise
- How a digital dollar in the form proposed would upset the balance of power between the Fed, commercial banks, and citizens
- Why trust in governments and financial institutions is likely to achieve new lows in the wake of COVID-19
- Why people are reevaluating the meaning and purpose of money
