More and more central banks are researching the use of electronic money, they want to understand how electronic money and Blockchain technology can affect their countriesThese are the reasons why electronic money will become more popular in 2019.

I really doubt that central banks are researching because they wanted to take advantage of electronic money. What they're interested at is the technology behind it, which is blockchain. They hated crypto because its a threat to their existing financial system.

And you, What do you think about the future growth potential of electronic money?

The future looks bright. Eventhough we have seen a lot of negativity and countries becoming hostile to crypto, there will be nations who will support it because of its potential. We have seen countries enacting laws to support crypto/blockchain/ICO's. So its just a matter of time, maybe 2-5 years its full potential will be realized.

Certainly, there is no doubt that what they are really looking at is the technology behind it which is the blockchain technology and how they can inculcate that into the fiat system in the long run.

Crypto however may be a threat to their existing system, but unfortunately for them, it is just something they will not have any other choice than to come around to accept eventually as we are beginning to see a lot of banks beginning to see how they can tap from the existing benefit that lurks obviously in the crypto space and we sure know it is anything for the profit when it comes to banks. The potential for future growth of electronic money has always been there and we are already experiencing the growth actually.
