CBDC
Digital Dollar Debate Takes Center Stage at Consensus 2023
In a series of discussions at Consensus 2023, the concept of a U.S. central bank digital currency, or "digital dollar," was dissected. Jesse Hamilton, CoinDesk's Deputy Managing Editor for Global Policy and Regulation, reports on the dialogue around this potential government-backed asset by the Federal Reserve. Hamilton highlights the appeal of "instant transactions and seamless movement of money across borders," but notes the substantial privacy implications, given the "tremendous amount of data that could be collected by the institutions running it." It's a subject of concern, he says, for many looking into this nascent field.
