start to challenge Explanation: I think it means "to challenge" in this context. -------------------------------------------------- Note added at 3 days3 hrs (2014-02-03 09:18:33 GMT) Post-grading -------------------------------------------------- The term sometimes connotates an element of discomfort to the object, just like nobody wants to be cut with a knife. Central banks, that enjoyed unquestioned authority for centuries, now have to deal with Bitcoin, over which they have no authority. Having no power to regulate the amount of money supplied or an exchange rate with their own currencies is a challenge to them. |
