Bitcoin is 'not for me' but it's too 'arrogant' to say it won't have a future, Goldman Sachs CEO says

"If you could go through that fiat currency where they say this is worth what it's worth because I, the government, says it is, why couldn't you have a consensus currency?" Lloyd Blankfein said. Goldman Sachs GS CEO Lloyd Blankfein does not own bitcoin, but he did not rule out Tuesday the cryptocurrency having a future. During a talk at the The Economic Club of New York, the banker struck an optimistic tone on bitcoin.
