In my opinion, the move to create their own digital currency is a positive development.
It means, that the government believes the benefits gained from this technology.
Let's say that they adopted the use of cryptocurrency in their country. The conclusion for that is they see that it has a good effect proportional to the growth of their economy. That's why their development is increasing compared to their society without cryptocurrency. I think that in some point it is an opportunity for them to become a developed country.
People later on will see the difference between a decentralized vs centralized coin.
So it will be their choice which one they will use when that time comes.
As they observed the different effects of having decentralized and centralized coin, what if the other one was implemented? Would it be okay if they also choose the other option? If that so, then I will prioritize the centralized coins where I can manage it with my own manipulation.
