Study Warns of Crypto Capture of Foreign Aid

Original: Crypto Capture of Foreign Aid

A new working paper published by the National Bureau of Economic Research argues that cryptocurrency interests are increasingly capturing foreign aid flows, shaping how development assistance is directed and spent. The paper is drawing attention among economists and policy watchers, who are debating how much public development money is being redirected toward crypto-related projects and whether that serves recipient countries' real needs.
