Is the world still a place with CBDCs, the last I read a headline about it was in 2023. I'm not really sure if CBDC is the reason why we are going digital but policy changes are making business go digital. Last year, my country was trying to go cashless policy because the government was trying to mop the floor of the too many circulation of money supply but that didn't last upto 3 months before it was reverse as many people couldn't cope with the policy.
However, the government saw a huge influx of digital transactions it has not experienced in many years, till now some business are still doing digital transactions and also accept fiat as alternatives for people that don't have means to digital. The government abandoned the policy simply because they were not prepared for other people, like the people without internet access, it was disastrous for them. Not everyone can digital at once.
not everyone has access to the internet network, although efforts have been made to make it even, by using digital there are certain difficulties and there are also conveniences that are obtained, although cash is an option, and digital transactions can create secure payments, the reality of CBDC requires adjustments and possibilities gradually and it depends on its use in each country that determines.
