ew Zealand is one of the first nations to
approve digital currency payments for
salaries. This means that employers are
allowed to pay in cryptocurrencies
3
, like Bitcoin, as
long as they are matched to one currency. This move
makes digital currencies normal by using them as
everyday payment methods.
Many people around the world have concerns
about cryptocurrencies because there are very few
rules for them, and they can’t be tracked
4
. This means
that cryptocurrencies can be used to buy guns, drugs,
or other illegal items, and the police won’t know
who bought them. A lot of cryptocurrencies are also
unstable
5
. For instance, one day they could be worth a
lot, and a few days later, they could be valueless
6
.
Like changing from thegold standard
7
to the
modern system, governments realize that the world of
money is changing. To keep up with modern times,
the New Zealand government is acting in a forward-
thinking
