Yep, the central banks, the IMF included, won't survive if cryptocurrencies, in their original form and idea spread around the world. So they have to do something now, while it is still not so dangerous. And first thing to do is to learn about the technology behind. Learn about your enemy so that you can defeat it. Other than that I see no purpose to their centralized Learning Coin. On second thought if they want to learn, what's keeping them to buy some bitcoins and join this forum. Best way by far.
Well, these days, many central banks of different countries have been beginning to sanction and allow the use of cryptocurrencies to be used in their localities. That is a sign that business entities are on the tract of accepting cryptocurrencies in transactions, which would help it grow to reach its utmost potential. Also, as more and more central banks or similar entities accept the use of cryptocurrencies, it will reinforce the trust factor that communities give cryptocurrencies, which is one aspect lacking for its continued use and being patronized and embraced upon.
