A new warning from IMF:

First, the potentially erratic valuation of virtual currencies introduces risks and could
limit the adoption of hub-and-spoke networks, at least for large value payments.
He and

virtual currencies are not likely to be adequate stores of value
given the volatility in their exchange rates to fiat money.
This same volatility would undermine hub-and-spoke networks, as two “foreign exchange rate” conversions are

Our opinion is that national currencies are not an adequate store of wealth.
