Morocco Warns of Cryptocurrency Risks

During a blockchain conference that was held last week on Rabat, the Moroccan Central Bank’s president Abdel Latif El-Gawahry said he is doubtful that cryptocurrencies can ever become the future of money and trading Bitcoin and other cryptocurrencies is a high risk.

According to the Moroccan news media “Hespress”, during the event, El- Gawahry also expressed doubt that cryptocurrencies could ever become the future of money. He said that Bitcoin lacks the characteristics of a real currency:

El-Gawahry said that despite the fact that he is against Bitcoin, he believes that blockchain technology has changed the way that banks and financial institutions operate today. He also added that he thinks that the blockchain revolution has arrived, and we believe it has the potential to impact the world just as much as the internet has since the 1990’s.

El-Gawahr aslso mentioned that Morocco, in the near future will be improving the local finacial services by applying new technologies such as blockchain.
