Episode 9: Digital Currency with Yaya Fanusie
On this episode of the Canary Group, we welcome Yaya Fanusie, a former counterterrorism and economic analyst with the CIA and leading scholar and analyst on digital currency and financial crimes. This conversation ranges from crypto and central bank digital currency (CBDC) to his riveting podcast, The Jabbari Lincoln Files, about a CIA analyst facing a new kind of global threat while being scapegoated. No spoilers here, but the podcast is as compelling as his coherent, easy to understand expertise on the dangers (and potential advantages) of digital currency.
