Some time ago, I was asked by a reader to write about Central Bank Digital Currencies (CBDC) and the latest thinking around this new form of payment/asset. And while I am on record as being sceptical about Bitcoin and other first-generation cryptocurrencies, I am quite optimistic that CBDC will become a reality and an important and possibly the dominant form of digital currency in the future. There is a lot of research going on in this field with 86% of all central banks
Thank you. Looking forward to the series. I hope I did not ruin your own summer break because of this topic 😎
