This fantastic interview conducted by Cyrus Janssen the host of “Real Talk China” is a deep dive into China’s CBDC and will undoubtedly answer many of your questions.
The interview was lovingly edited by Cyrus to make both a long and short version.
The long version below with a complete list of questions answered below is designed to give anyone a solid understanding of how China’s new central bank digital currency (CBDC) will change our world. If that sounds like a tall order, it is.
Many might think it overstatement except China’s CBDC is full of firsts:
- The first CBDC by a large nation
- The first use of programmable currency
- The first Central Bank to test CBDC in international transfer
- The first CBDC interoperability tests
The list of first could go on but this should give you a hint as to why China’s CBDC really will change the world.
The short version entitled: “China’s Digital Currency Explained in 10 Minutes” is posted in the preceding article and is the EASIEST way imaginable to learn about China’s CBDC.
Watching this will be a worthwhile investment of your time and will give you a great overview of what’s happening with China’s CBDC and how it works.
I am very proud of this interview and I am grateful to YouTube star Cyrus Janssen (150k subscribers) for this opportunity to get the message out about China’s CBDC.
