Bitcoin and monetary policy

[el malagueno]

Hello everybody. I have to graduate in 5 months and I would like to speak in the thesis about bitcoin and monetary policy . The supervisor asked me to send him some material. I would need sources, newspapers, blogs, etc. where they talk about btc and monetary policy. Thank you very much for helping.

You can check google to add up amidst the response you will get. There are certain information you could get there, I typed your enquiry topic and I go this, you can use the link and do more research https://www.google.com/search?q=bitcoin+and+monetary+policy+framework&oq

I don't know much about the thesis that you are doing but maybe it can do you good if you visit cryptocurrency related news sites like CoinDesk, CoinTelegraph or NEWSBTC. You can also get some related thesis on Researchgate if you need some references or studies to help your thesis.

I can only think of https://nakamotoinstitute.org/ as it contains Satoshi's posts, Bitcoin whitepaper, and other literature and research.
The best source of knowledge IMO.

If about money, find about supply and the chart (halving) and stuff.

If you have time, check out this new proposal from the European Central Bank.

https://www.ecb.europa.eu/pub/pdf/other/en_con_2021_4_f_sign~ae64135b95..pdf

It's quite a long read and filled with banking and economics jargon, but maybe you can find something that could work for you. I would also recommend anyone to read this proposal as it is done by the ECB and therefore could very well be something we have to deal with in the future. If anything, just the first 12 pages of the overview to get a notion of what is being discussed on the highest level.

You could also try this out (assuming you are referring to "Bitcoin Monetary policy") : https://www.khanacademy.org/economics-finance-domain/core-finance/money-and-banking/bitcoin/v/Bitcoin-the-money-supply. By the way, i'm not sure if such phrase is used  in Bitcoin world for Bitcoin. In my opinion, the online definition of Monetary Policy is not really compatible with the way Bitcoin actually works. 

Maybe you are referring to Bitcoin and its affect on Monetary policy of Nations, you could check this out.https://www.coincenter.org/education/policy-and-regulation/how-do-cryptocurrencies-affect-monetary-policy/ I haven't fully gone through the publication and can't confirm whether the information there is correct.

Bitcoin price is any time to change. Monetary is country way changing. So monetary is differ with all counters. But Bitcoin is not change. Bitcoin is any time to change it not easy to check the price. So check the price day by day then easy to increase in the Bitcoin. Monetary is not change the price. Country to country will be chage the price.

Bitcoin and monetary policy are too political/polarized for independent & unbiased science to prevail. Majority views published on cryptocurrencies are false narratives revolving around it being a safe haven for criminals and money launderers. False content about cryptocurrencies having large carbon footprints and being bad for the environment. These claims have been disproven numerous times over the years. Its easy to find news on investigations proving banks are the biggest launderers of capital. Bitcoin mining does not necessarily have a large carbon footprint due to it being majority powered by surplus and renewable forms of green energy.

The closest thing to legitimate research published on crypto I remember reading, is the following excerpt from apple co founder Steve Wozniak.

MONEY20/20: WOZNIAK THINKS BITCOIN IS BETTER THAN GOLD

Wozniak feels a currency is more “stable” when it cannot be diluted and, while Bitcoin has a fixed future supply (only 21 million bitcoins will ever be mined), the same cannot be said about government-backed fiat currencies.

“There is a certain finite amount of bitcoin that can ever exist,” Wozniak said in explaining that the U.S. government could wind up printing more dollars for political reasons. He described the U.S. dollar as “kind of phony” in that sense, while describing Bitcoin as more “genuine and real.”

Similarly, he said, gold does not necessarily have a fixed supply either, because humans will continue to find more efficient ways to dig it out of the earth.

“Gold gets mined and mined and mined,” Wozniak said. “Maybe there’s a finite amount of gold in the world, but Bitcoin is even more mathematical and regulated and nobody can change mathematics.”

Write ups detailing the long history of fiat/paper money inevitably returning to its "intrinsic value" of zero are also some of the best published work on crypto imo:

Inelastic and deterministic bitcoin monetary policy is certainly one of his predominant feature in the protocol design.
 suggested you a few resources on our local boards, but I think @mu_enrico and @thenineclub make a lot of sense.

Bitcoin and Monetary policy
Now this is an interesting topic but you should think about how do you want to start and from where you want to start ? This is indeed a very deep topic, it does have a lot of interesting options that you can go about. At the same time "Google", it does have everything! You can find all the information from there , but you should visit the profile of Mr. Satoshi here, start your journey going through his words and what he intended it to be. You can very well talk about :
Creation
Usage
First surge in price
Where it is now
Policies
Wallets
Why one should try holding some bitcoins and what benefit it gives to the user as a whole.
Why is it tackling the problem of the corrupted and old monetary system and how it can establish a cleaner society and strengthen the Government.
Talk about merits and demerits too But tactically for example:
Bitcoins is extremely volatile, therefore time and again it's a matter of concern for most people but this Volatility is honestly an amazing buying opportunity for the users who might have missed buying bitcoins when the price was low.   
Give them a chance to ask questions too, but you would only be able to answer if you do study in depth about this therefore I would encourage you to find your own sources, most of them are trustable on the Google but you have to choose what you would like in your report.
Best of luck
Work hard.

I understood it as "policies regarding bitcoin in nations", like some nations ban it, some nations allow it, some nations do not have any laws about it at all and just assume laws on per case basis, and some nations regulate it some do not etc etc. Like how a nation makes laws about stuff, and I thought this was about something like that, I do not know maybe I understood it wrong but that is what that seemed like for me and that is what I was looking for.

If it is about something else, OP could come in and write more about it but I feel like these kinds of topics usually end up being researched like crazy right after writing it here, because who would just write something this important and end up not caring about it and just red few answers and be fine with it? He probably researched it after writing here and found what he was looking for.

thank you very much ,and HODL

To do a thesis or some kind of scientific research I would suggest that you visit book.cc, sci-hub, openlibrary, ebooklobby, and many more. then to find a correlation with cryptocurrency, you can visit CoinTelegraph and NewsBTC.

Here is a guide to Bitcoin, Blockchain, and Cryptocurrency for Investment professionals. Also, here is a youtube video on Blockchain and Money which was conducted at MIT, but that's more on the technical side of blockchain. This one is more related to history of money and our financial systems and how bitcoin plays a part. Its a series so you can check out the others on their channel. Watching it was super fascinating to learn about history of the global finance and payments system. Essentially, ledgers are at the core of everything and the way we make payments has always gone through processes of evolution and change. This lecture was conducted by the guy who was nominated by joe biden himself to be the SEC chief.

You must be very careful when you talk about monetary policy, if the judges of the project are very radical with respect to the traditional economy, you must enter by inflationary economy and deflationary economy, they will be governed by safe actions, example: Stock Market and its actions well supported, you have to emphasize above all on the Law of Supply and Demand, although Bitcoin does not have a backing in Gold, in precious stones, among others, it has a large market capitalization and that its main characteristic is that its Bitcoins are limited to 21Millions, this means that the economy that is believed to be clearly deflationary, I think that you can enter from that side.

Are you studying on general Bitcoin or you’re only limited to your country?
Probably, there’s a lot of different monetary policy on every country so if you’re studying this one you might not be able to finish it in 5 Months so you’d better to set your target place and from there, start digging for informations. Your Central bank have their own monetary policy with regards to Bitcoin, that can be your great source.

[el malagueno]

I know that the judges could be traditionalist

[maxreish]

Here is one of an article in pdf form that help you to understand about the monetary system and the bitcoin. The effect of digital currency to the monetary policy of each country depends on how far the adoptation was achieved in different country. Different central banks have unique views about bitcoin itself.

Traditional monetary policy can not be changed easily but if you talk and represent about the future changes that was related with bitcoin, then it helps.

It would be great to update this thread again after 5 months or after you've defended your thesis. Watch out for the reaction of the judges/panelist and see how their faces look like.
And you'll get to see too how many of them were already into bitcoin. Good luck, you've got a lot of suggestions for your reference.

[el malagueno]

I remember when I told to my friend last summer " the value of btc will be very high, btc is limited" then he tells me " every cryptocurrencies will drop, it's a bubble " btc was $ 10000 ,now is about 60000$.
Maybe one day also the judges will change idea.
