Everyone wants a central bank meme coin. More than 80% of central banks are interested in launching a Central Bank Digital Currency or have already done so, according to research conducted by accounting firm PwC.
More than 80% of central banks are interested in launching a central bank digital currency or have already done so,The second annual Global CBDC Index report released on Monday measures a central bank‘s level of maturity in deploying its own digital currency. The report also included an overview of stablecoins for the first time.
Haydn Jones, blockchain and crypto specialist at PwC UK stated in the report that “over 80% of central banks are considering launching a CBDC or have already done so.” The report ranks both retail CBDCs, ones that are issued for use by the general public and wholesale CBDCs for use by financial institutions holding with the central bank, out of 100.
Retail CBDCs have reached a greater level of maturity in comparison to their wholesale counterparts, according to the report. Nigeria’s “eNaira”, for example, received a score of 95, marking it as the most developed across both the retail and wholesale categories.
