Chinese Communist Party: Getting the hang of crypto
With essays and articles penned down by industry experts from the People’s Bank of China and government regulators, the Central Party School has released a new book focussing on cryptocurrencies for the Chinese Communist Party officials. The aim is to offer an insight into the world of crypto, their growing influence on today’s youth, and learning about technologies that will permanently set the course for the future.
