IMF Had Warned G-20 That Widespread Crypto Use Could Impact Banking Sector

The International Monetary Fund’s report on “Macrofinancial Implications of Crypto Assets,” given to the G-20 in February during a meeting in India, was made public on Monday, days after the collapse of crypto-friendly banks Signature Bank, Silicon Valley Bank, and Silvergate Bank. “The Hash” panel discusses the significance of the report, as the IMF had warned the Group of 20 (G-20) nations that the widespread proliferation of crypto assets could lead to banks losing deposits and curtailing lending.
