Let’s get digital (currency?)

Cryptocurrency is a hot market, and some nations’ governments are wondering if it’s time to make their move. China already has a digital yuan, and the U.S. Federal Reserve announced today that it would explore a digital currency this summer. There are important differences between a minted digital currency and cryptocurrency, and we’ll help you figure out what those are. Plus, Chris Bosh, a royal gun show and a little CEO diversity.

Here’s everything we talked about on the show today:

“Fed, citing crypto risk, to open digital currency debate this summer” from Reuters
“Morgan Stanley Reorders Executive Ranks, Setting Up CEO Race” from The Wall Street Journal
“Senators reach bipartisan deal to overhaul USPS finances, tighten accountability requirements” from The Washington Post
