This week Isabelle sat down with Jonas Gross from the Digital Euro Association to talk about Europe's development of a CBDC.
Cash usage is declining and the ECB is showing an ongoing commitment to a digital euro. Will cash eventually disappear?
Although some of the prototype design challenges could limit usage, exploration of the CBDC shows positive steps.
As development of CBDCs continues worldwide, the ECB makes some signifficant announcements, but some still say, "why not use stablecoins?"
