Central bank digital currency (CBDC) is on the horizon, with more than 130 central banks globally considering such projects. But is this beneficial for citizens and the financial system? This book offers a comprehensive guide on the intricate subjects of CBDCs, stablecoins, and tokenized deposits. Authored by an industry expert who has actively participated in the development of CBDC solutions, this book demystifies the complexities of CBDC and digital assets, presenting both the opportunities and challenges with practical examples and real-world contexts. The book covers the history of money and the background of cryptography and technology architectures that are shaping the future of payments. It presents the risks and opportunities that these digital assets and CBDCs mean for our society. It discusses how CBDCs and stablecoins can potentially stabilize digital payment systems, offers opportunities for immediate settlements, and facilitate efficient cross-border payments. However, it also notes the significant challenges, including legal and regulatory complexities, social impacts, privacy concerns, security threats, and the risk of mass-surveillance. The book explores the different characteristics of digital assets, the options available for each characteristic (like privacy, sovereignty,...) and provides detailed knowledge to judge the merits of the solutions proposed by private and public players. A must-read for anyone looking to understand the rapidly evolving world of digital currencies, this book encourages critical thinking about the opportunities and challenges presented by CBDCs and other digital assets and prompts readers to consider the vital aspects of privacy, security, and governance in an increasingly complex digital financial landscape.
