Scenario
You are the financial advisor for a large antique coin and gold distributor. Some of your large customers are requesting the distributor begin accepting cryptocurrency, which is possible because of blockchain technology.

The distributor has been accepting credit cards and money transfers for many years. The fees associated with transactions have continued to increase. The fees have become so large that the distributor has been forced to pass along the cost to customers.

Customers outside the United States have also requested to use cryptocurrency since currency exchange rates can fluctuate greatly depending on world events.

The distributor asks that you prepare a presentation to stakeholders in the distributorship, discussing the acceptance of cryptocurrency, which uses blockchain technology. Be sure to support your recommendations with credible resources. Using the assigned readings in this module is a good starting point. Research databases are listed in the Resources area below.
