50 years ago this week President Richard Nixon made his drastic decision to remove the dollar from its peg to gold, effectively ending the Bretton Woods managed exchange rate system that had been in place since 1944, and starting the era of fiat currencies. "Money Reimagined" observes the anniversary with a discussion about the future of money with Cornell University professor Eswar Prasad and CoinDesk managing editor of podcasts, Adam B. Levine.
CoinDesk's "Money Reimagined," a newsletter and podcast series, expands into television with the same critical look at the issues and people that are shaping the future of money and economics. The TV series builds on the success of the weekly podcast hosted by CoinDesk's Chief Content Officer Michael Casey and the World Economic Forum's Sheila Warren.
