Christian Ethics and Bitcoin - with Jeffri Chiam

How should we guide our congregations in thinking ethically about engagement in Bitcoin? 

What is Bitcoin? How do we as Christian leaders assess the morality of bitcoin? 

Proponents say that it’s design fosters transparency and fairness and promotes economic justice.

Critics highlight its speculative risks and potential for illegal use. 

Jeffri Chiam is on the team at St Mary’s Cathedral in Kuala Lumpur.  In 2024 he completed a final year research project into Bitcoin.
