How far is central bank digital currency from us

1. The central bank's digital currency is the legal digital currency approved by the State Council. The central bank organizes market institutions to engage in the corresponding work of the central bank's digital currency research and development
2019 August 21st, the official account of WeChat central bank released two articles on digital currency.

2. On the issue of issuing their own digital currency, central banks are always less thunderous. Central banks around the world are considering issuing their own digital currencies to compete with cryptocurrencies such as bitcoin, but they have been unable to do so for a long time
the media's attention to the central bank's digital currency has increased significantly, especially after Zuckerberg testified in Congress on the Libra issue and Christina Lagarde acknowledged the "clear demand" for stable currency at her first media reception as president of the European Central Bank, which seems to have changed the public's view on this matter, Let many people in cryptocurrency community think that cbdcs is in sight<
according to the latest survey report released by the bank for International Settlements, central banks in the past seven years have been investigating this technology and assessing its impact. Of the 63 central banks surveyed, 55 said they were unlikely to issue cbdcs in the next three years, and only one reported that they were "highly likely to issue large-scale cbdcs in the next three to six years."
although the proportion of central banks studying cbdcs is very high, the crux of the problem is that it is mainly theoretical and investigative work. Only five central banks have concted more in-depth research and real project development or experimentation - but that still does not mean that they will necessarily issue cbdcs
through close observation, it is more and more obvious that both Libra recently released by Facebook and the new stable currency assets have had a significant impact on the central bank. Today's situation took hundreds of years to form, but it changed in a few months; Competition, the most terrifying and unfamiliar concept that has never been thought of before and penetrated into the elite society of central banks, is now knocking at the door
it can be said that the solution to the current situation is still unclear. Some people who are familiar with these things even say that they are bluffing. However, in Lagarde's own words, the slow and wait-and-see regulatory approach can no longer meet the needs
1. What is central bank digital currency<
what is the difference between central bank digital currency CBDC and other digital currencies
CBDC is a new form of currency, which is directly issued by the central bank in digital form as legal tender. The current form of legal currency is cash, reserve deposit or balance settlement< There are two main differences between CBDC and other digital currencies (including cryptocurrency and other forms of central bank currency):
1. CBDC has nothing to do with cryptoassets. They're not decentralized, they don't have to be blockchain based, and they're certainly not anonymous, they're not unlicensed, they're not censored< 2. Contrary to the current digital cash, the operation structure of CBDC will be different from other forms of central bank currency. CBDC has more powerful functions. They are programmable, can generate interest, can be cleared in near real time, and have cheaper handling charges and wider openness
when designing CBDC, the speed of central banks is different. Different central banks adopt their own approach. However, in general, there are three problems being explored: whether CBDC should be based on token or account number, whether CBDC should be batch (only open to banks) or retail (open to the public), and whether it should be based on DLT
when CBDC is to be implemented, things will become complicated, and there are many thorny problems to be considered
for example, once CBDC is launched, does it need to cancel cash? Should CBDC carry interest? Should they have face value like cash? Or linked to the total price index? What impact will this have on commercial banks? What about anonymity and privacy? All these questions need to be answered<
2. Motivation for issuing CBDC
in the 2017 staff discussion paper, the Bank of Canada gave six reasons for issuing CBDC in an article entitled "central bank digital currency: motivation and impact":
1. Ensure that the central bank provides sufficient cash to the public, and maintain the seigniorage revenue of the central bank
2, Support non-traditional monetary policy
3. Rece overall risk and improve financial stability
4. Improve payment competitiveness
5. Promote financial inclusiveness
6. Curb criminal activities
looking back at the bank for International Settlements survey we analyzed earlier, payment security and domestic efficiency are selected as the most important motives of the central bank. According to a large number of papers published by the central bank and other large financial institutions, for developed countries, the transformation into a cashless society is the main driving factor, while for developing countries, financial inclusiveness, cost rection and operational efficiency are the main motivation
throughout the rest of the reports and the literature that can be found, the fierce competition brought about by bitcoin and other innovations in the cryptocurrency instry, as well as the clear need for "one step ahead", of course, are not listed as the reasons for issuing CBDC< The advantages and potential risks of CBDC are very low.
if the central bank starts to launch CBDC and succeeds in the end, there are many potential benefits
from a technical point of view, CBDC is much better than the current form of legal currency. They can be tracked better, collect taxes more conveniently, transmit monetary policy better, have better financial inclusiveness, and rece the cost of procing physical currency
the most obvious advantage is that payment is cheaper and faster, whether it is domestic payment or cross-border payment
in addition to the design and implementation problems, a key problem of issuing CBDC is that CBDC may increase the risk of bank operation. However, this only happens when banks promise that their deposits can be converted into CBDC on demand, which is not necessarily the case, according to the Bank of England document
4. Facts on the ground
how far is it from us to see a real CBDC appear in the market? It's hard to estimate, but at present, we can sum up the current situation in one sentence: all talk but no practice
if we put aside the failed digital currencies of Ecuador, Tunisia and Venezuela, we can only do theoretical research, a small amount of experiments, and issue some feasible CBDC issuance announcements supported by the state in the future
the most famous CBDC projects in progress are: e-peso in Uruguay (the project was successfully tested in 2018), DCEP in China, "project Inthanon" in Thailand, e-krona in Sweden (still in the research stage)...
5. The revolution has not yet been successful, and comrades still need to work hard
considering the factors mentioned above, Most of the headlines about CBDC's upcoming release are groundless. All projects scheled to be released this year have been delayed
in fact, there is still a long way to go for the birth of CBDC, and to convince the public, we need more than a statement. Given the current situation, it seems that CBDC and other cryptocurrencies may not affect each other - at least for now.

3. According to an article on the official website of the people's Bank of China, the digital currency seminar of the people's Bank of China was held in Beijing on the same day to further clarify the strategic objectives of the central bank's issuance of digital currency, do a good job in tackling key technologies, study the multi scenario application of digital currency, and strive to launch the digital currency issued by the central bank as soon as possible
currently under study, many problems need to be improved slowly. Wait.
currently under study, many problems need to be improved slowly. Wait.
4. The central idea of digital currency is decentralization, but the central bank should only use the encryption method of digital currency.
5. The original text is as follows:
with the upgrading of payment methods, we can eat, take a taxi and go to the supermarket without cash. The amount of cash needed in circulation is getting smaller and smaller. Can we replace paper money with a virtual digital currency? This is not a whim. The central bank recently said that the research on digital currency has achieved phased results, striving for the early issuance of digital currency. If the digital currency is successfully issued, it will not only make people's living and payment more convenient, but also increase the transparency of economic transaction activities for the country. So, how far is digital currency from us< Not long ago, the people's Bank of China revealed that a special research team had been set up in 2014 to conct in-depth research on digital currency issuance and business operation framework, key technologies of digital currency, issuance and circulation environment, etc
what is digital currency? Many people may be unfamiliar with this. There is no official definition of digital currency. According to the instry, the digital currency referred to by the central bank should be the electronization of RMB. At present, people's daily third-party payment behaviors such as bank transfer and yu'ebao are all related to digital currency. Digital currency in a broad sense includes unofficial virtual currency, such as bitcoin, which was popular before
here we also need to mention a new term called "blockchain technology", which is a new technology of the Internet. Digital currency is supported by blockchain technology, which is characterized by "decentralization", that is, taking away the centralized control of an institution over the issuance of currency. Yu Fenghui, a financial critic, said that the trust problem in the virtual economic system can be solved through blockchain technology. Taking bitcoin as an example, it is not issued by a specific monetary institution, but is generated by the transaction volume of network nodes, and is single, traceable and traceable after it is put into circulation. All funds are very transparent where they come from and where they go
a more familiar form of digital currency should be electronic RMB, which has infiltrated into various consumption scenarios of electronic payment. There is no need to repeat the impact and subversion of electronic payment on our lives. Credit card payment and code scanning payment have greatly reced the space for the use of paper money. It can be seen that the progress of technology has graally forced the withdrawal of paper money
the new favorite of the financial system
the attitudes of all countries towards digital currency are changing. It is reported that DNB, Norway's largest bank, recently called on the government to stop using cash completely. In fact, several banks in Norway have closed some branches' cash business. Only three branches of DNB have counter cash business. Other Norwegian banks are also phasing out cash transactions. According to statistics, only 6% of Norwegians still use cash every day, most of them are the elderly
not only Norway, but also the world is moving towards the era of digital currency. According to Xiao Lei, chief researcher of gold wallet, many institutions, including Nasdaq Stock Exchange, Goldman Sachs and modern, began to invest in the research because of the continuous impact of digital currency represented by bitcoin on the world financial system. It is found that the blockchain technology used in digital currency can bring convenience and rece costs to many institutions, and there are cases that can be applied to the real economy. This gives more countries and institutions the incentive to invest in blockchain technology and digital currency
in China, some institutions have shown great interest in it and invested in research. It is understood that Alibaba Finance announced that it may provide a cloud service platform based on blockchain technology
digital currency is sought after and favored because there is no real "world currency" in the current global market. It is understood that although the US dollar is currently the most widely used currency in the world, not every country readily accepts the US dollar as the world currency. Xiao Lei said that the world currency should be like gold, with the characteristics of "de nationalization". Digital currency can even be regarded as gold in the gold standard era, and is expected to become the "general equivalent" in the Internet era in the future
the application space is broad
it is not difficult to see that digital currency is highly expected. Instry insiders said that once digital currency comes out, it will be applied to many fields
from a national perspective, the "trace" and "traceability" of digital currency can improve the convenience and transparency of economic transactions. Yu Fenghui said that money laundering, tax evasion and other criminal activities are expected to decrease. At the same time, with the application of blockchain technology, a unified account book will be established nationwide and even worldwide, so that every sum of money can be traced, every transaction can be traced, tax evasion and money laundering will be within the scope of supervision, and it is even possible to realize automatic tax dection on the card machine
for the central bank, digital currency can rece the high cost of traditional paper money issuance and circulation, and solve the problem of currency over issuance and inflation caused by the central bank's centralized control of currency issuance right. Bai Chengyu, Secretary General of China microfinance Union, said that digital currency can generate a certain amount of transaction volume according to the transaction demand of real economy generated by the public in the transaction process“ This form of digital currency may be automatically generated by the blockchain system and issued according to the transaction volume, which can avoid the inflation caused by over issuance. "
in addition, digital currency helps to build a new financial infrastructure. For example, digital currency will make the credit accumulation and archives of all people traceable and accessible, which is of great significance to promote the construction of credit system. Yu Fenghui said that after the promotion of digital currency, from the perspective of social credit accumulation, enterprises and consumers will tend to use digital currency and swipe cards for consumption, because electronic transactions have data traces, which can accumulate the credit of enterprises and indivials, which will become the basis for obtaining financial services such as banks< In addition to helping the state to regulate and improve the financial system, digital currency is closely related to people's life. It is not only the convenient payment that people have felt, but also reflected in many aspects
first of all, it is very difficult to have counterfeit money in the market. According to Bai Chengyu, one of the characteristics of blockchain is transparency. The issuance of digital currency needs to be certified, so it is difficult to forge
as well as counterfeit money, there should be the problem of plundering the wealth of people and enterprises in local areas, which will be fundamentally solved by digital currency. Bai Chengyu said that compared with the previous state's decentralization of poverty alleviation funds to local governments, some governments have the phenomenon of "evasion", which leads to the fact that some poverty alleviation objects can not get the funds“ At the beginning, it was cash distribution, and later it was bank transfer. However, there was a problem that there were not many bank outlets in some remote areas, and people had to walk a long way to get money. If there is a digital currency, there is no need to withdraw cash for consumption and payment, and it will be easier to monitor capital flow. "
moreover, the use of digital currency will rece financial transaction costs. Bai Chengyu said that before, the inter-bank settlement of banks had to charge service charges, because the settlement center required each bank to keep a part of the capital to balance its position. This part of the capital occupied the bank's funds, and the bank would spread the cost to the people, that is, to charge for the inter-bank settlement business. The "decentralized" payment and clearing system under the blockchain technology will facilitate the settlement between banks and further rece the transaction cost of people's payment
the next step of "de centralization" is "de intermediation", which will simplify many current financial business proceres, such as foreign exchange. Bai Chengyu said that previously, foreign exchange clearing had to go through banks and other clearing institutions, which increased the exchange cost and time interval. Now, the international community has tried to use blockchain technology to develop a new international currency exchange system, which can realize the "de centralized" exchange of currency and "de intermediary" in the future
resistance to implementation
although many countries and institutions are actively developing digital currency and blockchain technology, and people are full of expectations for it, even if digital currency is really issued, it will still face some resistance to implementation
technically, because blockchain is an Internet technology, "hacker" risk is taken into account. The bigger problem, though, is control. Many people in the instry said that bitcoin is essentially different from the digital currency to be launched by the central bank. Bitcoin is not issued by a specific monetary institution, and the relevant financial supervision has not been followed up, so there is a large capital risk. However, the digital currency to be launched by the central bank this time belongs to the official currency and is protected by the central bank. Because bitcoin is not uniformly issued by the central bank, it has not been recognized by many countries. The central bank values whether digital currency is controlled or not
in addition, as mentioned above, even as a leading country in digital currency promotion, Norway still has 6% of the elderly people who are difficult to get rid of paper money, which is undoubtedly a problem that can not be ignored by all countries. Xiao Lei said that digital currency will first be targeted at young people and promoted in some areas. It will not turn all the money in the cash flow into digital currency. This needs to consider the coordination between digital currency and paper money and people's willingness to use them
there is bound to be an adaptation process from paper money to digital currency, and the road of its reform will be very long, but it can be seen that digital currency will inevitably form a development trend. Bai Chengyu said that technological innovation will overcome the problems in reality, just like going to a bank to do business now. If it does not involve cash, the lobby manager will recommend customers to ATM and other self-service equipment. This is a good proof that technological innovation has replaced labor in the past. Now the application of mobile phone is also very simple. It can be predicted that the technology will continue to update in the future. The use of electronic channels, digital currency and other procts in the new era will become a trend

of course, the central bank's digital currency is different from bitcoin, wikilink, bitcoin cash, Ethereum and other digital currencies on the market. The central bank's digital currency has the property of currency.
