With japan also recognizing bitcoins as legal tender it could be said that the crypto currency is future is looking good so if bitcoin doesnt actually crash itll probably be only a question of time before the broader economy has to join the rush. And joining us now from new york is jacob any a softie runs the chevy Digital Assets fund which invests in cryptocurrency is like but he left his job at Goldman Sachs to do you say back in twenty thirty thank you for joining us jacob now because it is certainly a volatile currency so how wild a ride has it been for you and your fun day over the past four years. Well its been a crazy ride for all of us sometimes crazier than others this year in particular but this years ride has been distinctive because its been pretty much straight up whereas a lot of us who have been around a little longer remember twenty fourteen when the price of decline dropped over eighty percent very painful for those of us who hadnt expected a year like this so how high could you see it going and how do you know when its actually correcting in terms of value because this is uncharted water. Yes well these are Uncharted Waters in terms of the price weve never been anywhere near ten thousand dollars before and its only a month and a half ago that it first hit five thousand dollars so that gives a sense of how quickly its its happening but if you look at the charts a big coin and you go back to the eight years in or nine years of its existence there had been passed a tremendous spikes in two thousand and eleven and it went from i think from two dollars to thirty dollars and then back down from thirty cents to thirty dollars and then back down below two dollars so it fell more than ninety percent and in two thousand and thirteen when a lot of us heard about that coin and i had had a similarly crazy ride up but then also down so the ups have been followed by downs and thats likely to continue do you believe the hype do you think that it could reach over forty thousand dollars for example by the end of next year some people say. Yes i do think that i think there are reasons to think fundamentally it could be worth a tremendous amount in the distant future or even in the near future but that its just we have to expect a very wild ride between now and then and anyone who is hoping that it will reach that kind of high has to remember it could easily drop by double triple that so its its very unpredictable of course a six trainee sensitive to News Development so i mean how much of your job is waking up in the morning and looking at News Developments and getting a feel for how the currency might move in light of that. You know that is a big part of my job is just keeping track of whats going on but a lot of it also is longer term developments the short term price movements are crazy in are very hard to predict what a lot of us are more interested in is what is the future of this is what it is going to be widely used in ten years is it going to be replaced by another Computing Technology is it just going to turn out to be just a fad that came and went so the long term is a little easier to make out and in the long term i think the future of this technology is bright the ability to send money from one person to another without any organization or company in between is very powerful and i think that has a great teacher. That is true a lot of people there or supporting out the fact that its on regulated it could crash and investors could lose the lot ok thank you very much take it off who runs the digital fund aid new york much as it thinks that u. S. President trumps pick for the Federal ReserveJerome Powell has suggested the central bank is likely to raise rates in december during its next policy meeting paul told at the Senate Banking committee the case for raising rates a strong the rate hike is likely to range between one point two five and one point five percent and it would be the fifth in two years despite being a republican paul has said that the u. S. Central bank will continue his predecessors policy of raising Interest Rates gradually. Lets bring in our financial correspondent sophie ski in new york now sophie investors will have been listening closely to what jay powell had to say how all they reacting to his proposed normalization of Interest Rates well pretty positive way helen are when it comes to Interest Rates powell is quite close if not completely in line with janet yellen as investors love this because that makes him predictable he might move a little faster though with further rate hikes than yellen might have done that something but in a hearing today in front of the senate commenting he declined to give a specific answer on whether the central bank would raise rates later this month but he said that he things the case for raising Interest Rates at our next meeting is coming together later and the hearing here added that he expects the gradual path the fed has taken so far to continue now we understand that hes been grilled on capitol hill what issues would he have been taking those burning questions on. Well we just talked about his plans when it comes to Interest Rates he also talked about drinking the Balance Sheet another part by the way where he agrees with janet yellen and then senator and wall street to watch stock Elizabeth Warren had some tough questions about regulation power said he doesnt want to make these regulations any tougher he doesnt want to lift a part of the Regulatory Burden especially for Smaller Banks so if youre on ski on wall street thank you the World Economy is growing at a faster rate than it has.
