Agustín Guillermo Carstens , Mexican economist and manager at the Bank of International Settlements, says bitcoin may break down altogether.

>Bitcoin is "more of a speculative asset than money" that should perhaps "be seen more like a community of online gamers, who exchange real money for items that only exist in cyber space

>Ultimately, according to Carstens, "if digital currencies are needed, central banks should be the ones to issue them".
