Thanks to the growing popularity of Bitcoin, travelers will soon be able to throw away their wallets and replace them with their smartphones.

 Bitcoin is a digital currency that can be used globally without the hassle of expensive and inconsistent fees. It's a decentralized currency that's starting to become more widely used by businesses and travelers.

Fred and Jeremy bring on a Bitcoin expert, Daniel Cawrey, to shed some light on understanding Bitcoin: how it works, how it helps travelers, and what's in store for the future of digital currency.
