If Bitcoin were able to be used for currency at most stores or taken for payment online, would you be more likely to use it? Why or why not? Since online and digital transactions are now commonplace, why would Bitcoin (or another cryptocurrency) be needed for everyday use? Doesn't Apple Pay, PayPal or Google Pay do the same things?

Now, suppose First Main Street Bank loans out all of its new excess reserves to Deborah, who immediately writes a check for the full amount to Carlos.

Then Second Republic Bank lends out all of its new excess reserves to Larry, who writes a check to Janet, who deposits the money in her account at Third Fidelity Bank. Finally, Third Fidelity lends out all of its new excess reserves to Megan.

After thanking your grandmother profusely (and helping her rehang the picture of Elvis), you proceed to your bank and deposit half of your gift in your checking account and half in your savings account. How will these transactions affect M1 and M2? How will these transactions change M1 and M2 in the short run? What about the long run?”arrow_forward
