But it is a message that comes too from a Central Bank Governor who has been labelled as a “disruptor” – one that leads an institution that is ready to embrace the challenges of a rapidly changing financial and economic landscape.

As I close, to align this message better with your theme… let me summarize the truths and myths of cryptocurrency from the BSP’s viewpoint:  Myth:  Privately-issued cryptocurrencies are legal tender and shall soon replace fiat currency. Truth: Cryptocurrencies, not backed by any central authority are not legal tender.
