In brief
Ripple founder Chris Larsen claims that China and the US are in a "technological cold war"
China has near-ubiquitous use of digital payments, and an upcoming digital yuan which could threaten the US-led financial system.
Larsen also argues that China's control of cryptocurrency hashing power could enable it to meddle with transactions.
