20 Key Questions from Central Banks Answered

As an increasing number of nations begin to investigate the integration of CBDCs, Matthieu Saint Olive, our CBDC and stablecoin lead expert sat down with representatives from a prominent central bank to answer a range of questions around implementing an Ethereum-based CBDC.

Here is a glimpse of what they covered:

What is the strategy regarding adopting ETH 2.0?
Is your CBDC idea available only for wholesale intermediaries (Banks, PSPs) or also retail users? Is direct access to the ledger possible for end-users? Can users deploy smart contracts and exchange transactions?
Adoption is vital for the success of Central Bank Digital Currencies, but adoption is contingent upon the cost born by citizens and banks. How much would it cost for Banks and PSPs to transit to an environment based on this technology?
If the central bank is the trusted instance, why should we consider moving to a decentralized platform?
With end-users only able to engage with digital national currency through licensed banks, isn’t this more or less what the current banking system is doing, only without a cash option?
