In the past ten years, digital technology, online payments, and mobile banking have grown very fast, especially in developing countries. New global financial systems have pushed central banks to act quickly, turning ideas like Central Bank Digital Currencies (CBDCs) into real pilot projects in several countries.
Interest in CBDCs is growing all over the world. According to the Atlantic Council's CBDC tracker, more than 95% of the global economy is thinking about using some form of CBDC. Developing countries are moving faster in testing and launching different types of CBDCs.
This book talks about digital payments, cryptocurrencies, and CBDCs. It gives examples from different countries and explains how their economies and societies are affected.
It also looks at both the good and bad sides of these changes. Some people worry about privacy and central banks having too much control. In the US, some fear that if cash disappears, the government will watch our spending more closely.
Finally, the book explains how digital currencies, stablecoins, cross-border payments, and other digital tools might change the global financial system. It also discusses the future of cash and money worldwide.
