Digital Euro: A questionable endeavor, experts say
posted 11 Aug 2023
The proposal to create a digital Euro by the European Union is facing academic skepticism, with some specialists forecasting its doom from the get-go.
Two economists from the University of Bern, Cyril Monnetm and Dirk Niepelt, have cited preset storage limits for users as a primary concern.
They also flagged the possible disinterest of banks in the digital Euro's success if it doesn't lead to significant revenue. Without the backing of commercial entities, they believe, widespread adoption might remain a distant dream.
