Key Takeaways: Technology Always Changes the World From ancient farming tools to smartphones, every big invention has helped shape how people live and work. Now, digital currencies are doing the same by changing how we think about money. Bitcoin Started Something New In 2009, Bitcoin was created as a new kind of money that isn't controlled by any one country or bank. It runs on a computer network that anyone can use and no one can shut down. Why People Like Bitcoin Many people are tired of traditional money systems that lose value over time because of inflation (when prices go up and money buys less). Bitcoin has a limited supply, which means it can't be printed endlessly like paper money. History Helps Us Understand the Big Picture Looking at how past technologies changed the world helps us see how big of a deal digital money really is. Just like gold changed trade or the internet changed communication, Bitcoin is changing how we use money. Want to Learn More?       a.

Send us your feedback In this episode, Technology Partner, Tom Maasland, talks to Financial Services Partner, Jeremy Muir, about the evolving landscape of digital money in New Zealand. [01:33 – 03:37]  Jeremy begins by explaining what digital money is and the distinction between various public and private forms of money, such as fiat currencies, bank deposits, e-wallets, loyalty cards and cryptocurrencies.[03:38 – 06:57] Tom and Jeremy then focus on Central Bank Digital Currencies (CBDCs), discussing how governments worldwide, including New Zealand, are exploring these types of public digital currency options. Jeremy further explains the distinction between wholesale CBDCs, used by financial institutions, and retail CBDCs, designed for everyday consumers.[06:58 – 09:37] Tom and Jeremy discuss the Reserve Bank of New Zealand's (RBNZ) Digital Cash Project, which is exploring the feasibility of New Zealand's own "digital cash” retail CBDC. Jeremy outlines the project's four-stage timeline and highlights the significant public and industry feedback received during the current consultation phase.[09:38 – 11:57] They then consider how digital cash would operate in practice, if adopted in New Zealand. Jeremy details the key design features proposed by the RBNZ, including that digital cash would be issued by the RBNZ, exchangeable one-to-one with physical cash, and distributed through third-party providers such as Banks and Fintechs. He highlights the importance of privacy in digital cash design, aiming to maintain anonymity and accessibility while balancing regulatory requirements for financial security and anti-money laundering.[11:58 – 14:02] Tom asks how digital cash would co-exist with existing forms of digital money and physical cash, with Jeremy considering the potential interplay between these forms of currency and whether it's time to consider retiring the traditional piggy bank.[14:02 – 16:19] Jeremy lastly talks through some of the potential implications of a retail CBDC on bank deposits, home loans, and consumers, as well as what the future holds for digital payments in New Zealand.Information in this episode is accurate as at the date of recording, 24 January 2025.Please contact Jeremy Muir of our Financial Services team if you need legal advice and guidance on any of the topics discussed in the episode.Please get in touch to receive an episode transcript.

We're almost a quarter of the way into the 21st Century and already it's clear money has changed. It's increasingly mobile. It's (relatively) cheap and more and more digital. Economist Richard Holden is charting the changes. Guest: Richard Holden, Professor of Economics at the University of NSW Business SchoolAuthor of "Money in the 21st Century; Cheap, Mobile, and Digital' published by University of California Press.

Thailand's prime minister said in July that eligible businesses and individuals can register from August for digital cash handouts, a controversial program that will cost billions of dollars and is meant to boost the lagging economy. The government announced in April the widely criticized ambitious plan, named the “Digital Wallet,” meant to give 10,000 baht (about $275) to 50 million citizens in digital money to spend at local businesses. Prime Minister Srettha Thavisin posted on the social platform X, saying the registration will begin August 1 and that he has given instructions to ensure the smooth implementation of the program. The “Digital Wallet” was a major campaign promise of the ruling Srettha's Pheu Thai party ahead of last year's general election. The government says that this scheme will cause an “economic tornado,” and Srettha has said the stimulus and subsequent consumption are expected to boost gross domestic product growth by 1.2 to 1.6 percentage points. However, economists have criticized the program, calling it an ineffective way to contribute to sustainable economic growth compared to other measures. Deputy Minister of Finance Julapan Amornvivat said that the Digital Wallet committee has agreed to exclude tens of thousands of shop owners and cash recipients who have a record of committing fraud in past programs. The plan also has certain limitations, such as excluding certain goods that are yet to be decided, and earlier proposals suggested oil, services, and online purchases should be among them. Julapan said the Commerce Ministry would handle the exclusions set to be announced in the fourth week of July after the detailed plan is submitted to the Cabinet. Thailand has in recent years suffered from a sluggish economy that appears to have deteriorated with no clear sign of growth. The ruling Pheu Thai party had initially suggested digital wallet payments for all Thais 16 and older, but later this was limited to only lower-income Thais, defined as people with yearly incomes not exceeding 840,000 baht (about $23,000) and savings in financial institutions not totaling more than 500,000 baht ($13,700).

Last year, while we were traveling around the world shooting our documentary “No Farmers No Food,” we stopped in the Netherlands to speak with the farmers there. Those farmers were feeling the brunt of the European Union's goal of “saving the planet.” Because, as a practical matter, the Dutch government's plan would result in something like 30 to 45 percent of Dutch farmers having to give up their land.

Today, we are debunking the myth that cryptocurrencies are completely unregulated. I will share examples of why it's not the "Wild West" by pointing to existing regulations and laws that can apply today and in the future. This week, I'm joined by my dear friend, Sandra Ro, for episode 179 of the Tech Intersect™ Podcast to discuss the myth that crypto is unregulated! Right now, there are some negative impacts because of the regulatory uncertainty, which impacts consumers, entrepreneurs, and countries' competitiveness.
