Cryptocurrency Ethics - What CPAs Need to Know
Description
Cryptocurrencies, since bursting on the scene during 2016, have led and dominated the broader blockchain conversation as individuals and institutions seek to make better use of these technologies. A topic that has remained on the back burner for now, how ethics intersect with the cryptocurrency conversation, is coming to the forefront as wide adoption continues to march forward.
Be it widely distributed cryptocurrencies like Bitcoin or centralized options such as the proposed Libra project, ethical considerations are important topics for CPAs to understand moving forward.
